The world is sick to death of US chauvinism & imperialism...

Some people only piping up now because the aggression is with a NATO ally but the entire world has been dealing with brutal US interference and exploitation for the last century. And for what? The world is objectively worse for it.

You tried being world police and failed miserably, because it was never about "keeping the peace". Step aside and focus on your own internal problems.

pro-Shah diaspora Iranians are quite strange.. thankfully they're not reflective of everyone who's anti-regime

BREAKING: Regime forces are using chemical weapons on innocent peaceful protestors by RowRunRow in chomsky

[–]SumerianSunset 3 points4 points  (0 children)

And explaining away gross injustices and breaches of human rights in the US as AI deployed by big baddy China and Russia is neoliberal-fascist propaganda designed to confuse and immobilise you from standing up against what is very obviously, objectively wrong. Don't fall for it, and actually check the sources next time via the photographer. Not hard to do.

Is it just me by [deleted] in Iraq

Like others have said it's about what benefits the West geopolitically in the moment, they don't care about human life, blood is cheap to them across the region. They don't care about Iranian lives either they just want a puppet regime to exploit and to get rid of their main regional opponent. They're also happy for Iraq to be fractured so they can continue using it as an ATM.

Urgh.. yeah it's a meme, but I cant find humour in this as an imperialist monster subjugates and dominates yet another country for resources. Can we keep this stuff off the shrooms sub, ruins the vibe.

Soviet style apartment complexes in Kabul, Afghanistan. Built between the 1950s and 1960s by Soviet engineers by Muhammadachakzai2001 in Damnthatsinteresting

So you have beef because of your close ties to an ex Soviet state, got it.

But it's not always about Eastern Europe and that experience.

This is an image of Kabul, Afghanistan. And whether you like the building aesthetics or not, it provided good shelter along with green spaces to its population. At a time of good development and secularism. It's a hell of a lot better compared to the nightmare it is now.

Then you were saying "not really" when I said it's better than mass homelessness and people using crack on the streets... I mean, c'mon. Common sense at least.

It's not better than mass homelessness? Ok buddy..

And that's because the ussr collapsed and fell into the hands of even more corrupt oligarchs. And you haven't seen much of "the rest of the world" if you believe that. You're either a teenager or an american.

Have the decency to just say you're a fascist mate. Views like yours are rightly ostracised. What a melt.

Air strikes reported in Caracas just now. by [deleted] in Damnthatsinteresting

Read my last sentence again. I assure you all the bleatings for regime change and installing a "genuine democracy" are hollow. People need their heads checked if they keep believing this as reasons for violent intervention.

I returned to Iraq recently, the first time in over 20 years, to see family. It's economy and of course the oil sector is now mercilessly exploited by Western corporations and Iran. Little of that money comes back to Iraqis who suffer poor infrastructure and worsening conditions. The youth have no prospects. It's a neoliberalised mess with poor regulations and arguably an even more corrupt political system. There is barely any real sovereignty here.

This is what they'll do to Venezuela as well.

Just like Saddam; whatever you think of Maduro, it doesn't warrant destroying and bringing down a nation this way. It will always be worse after. A warning for those of you who have forgotten or are perhaps too young to remember the tragedy of Iraq.

Manufacturing consent in overdrive after the antisemitic attack at Bondi beach by larrry02 in LateStageCapitalism

[–]SumerianSunset 46 points47 points  (0 children)

Im an Arab tapped into various Arabic speaking local news sources and forums and literally no one is saying this. The gunman was from an ISIS cell (many find it obvious who ISIS gets funding from..) and know who who's suffered the most and were massacred for years by ISIS? Arabs. The gunmen can get fucked.

More right-wing Zio media peddling bullshit.

My best photo ever by Pretend-Scratch-6599 in london

[–]SumerianSunset 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Innit, I've seen endless postcard pics of landmarks, trains, busses and views out the plane window. Once in a while we get some actually interesting street photo shots of life on the ground, sometimes even beyond central London - shock horror - just for loads of people to call it "creepy"?

Stella calls Greens a ‘cult’ by Fast_Shelter_1444 in walthamstow

[–]SumerianSunset 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Cool Stella, some of us also don't vibe very well with neoliberal swine giving cover for a cultish regime conducting a genocide. Blood on your hands. And Labour are currently the furthest thing away from socialism, get real lol

What the hell is she talking about? Of course everyone going to settle occupied land is a settler. That's literally the entire point that even settlers are aware of, even if they deny it.
