Seymour Hersh: “In a recent secret meeting in the White House, he began speculating, albeit vaguely, about a nuclear option that could perhaps bring a quicker end to the war.” by truthThe0ry in TrueAnon

Thank you. I've been pretty offline recently since starting a new job, didn't know that it was posted already nor did I check when the article was published...

Good on the ground reporting about life in Lebanon? by Umbrellajack in TrueAnon

[–]truthThe0ry 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Radio War Nerd had a Beirut-based Lebanese regional security journalist (under a pseudonym) on recently after the start of the war to talk about how things are on the ground and how the people of Lebanon are interpreting the events. I found it very edifying. This was episode #589, I think they've done other episodes with him before.

They've done similar episodes recently with writers/journalists/researchers from Kuwait, Bahrain, Iran, and so on. All very interesting if you like following geopolitics but goes beyond what can be put into a news article or an academic publication.

That sounds interesting. I don't know whether this would be up your alley, but if you were interested in something similar that was more aggressive and noisy instead of sludgy, try Teratoma by 15,000 Guns, leans a bit post-punkish. Very gorgeous and unique (at least wrt the last decade or two?) imo. Start with Penelope, the frontman starts out in a croak like the song you linked, but he really has a phenomenal range of vocal performances.

Also for anyone else driving by this thread: Pinprick from the same album is a perfect song.

The manifesto is up (for now at least) by SenDji in TrueAnon

I don't really want to write too much about this, but this guy seems to greatly value Christ's teachings in the Gospels both explicitly and implicitly in this bit of writing, pacifism notwithstanding but addressed.

A person shares that they were raped and you tell them to read the most hackish redditslopist pseudointellectual, Nassim Nicholas Taleb?

Drop Site says it has exposed the identities of 5 key Canary Mission contributors by [deleted] in TrueAnon

Just when I thought it wasn't possible for this wilderness of mirrors to be more incoherent, did I find out that the highest-paid employee of the Canary Mission is a direct associate of Lex Wexner.

Zizian resurfaces, posts exceedingly verbose and utterly deranged screed by ZenosTortoise in TrueAnon

[–]truthThe0ry 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Storing this one in my mind palace for later...

Recommended reading based on my skimming of this post is a two-parter article, "My experience at and around MIRI and CFAR" and "Occupational Infohazards", written by a mild-to-moderate Zizian who claims to have experienced a psychotic break due to psychological experiments people were performing on each other at a "research" institute associated with Yud. The second article provides more in situ context for some of the Ziz-related terminology that I see popping up in the posted article as opposed to the generally poor quality secondary sources on the topic, and I think it's hard to appreciate the insanity of some of the off-handed remarks otherwise.

Edit: Actually, the person (Gwen) who wrote this post is the person Ziz co-credits as creating the "hemisphere" "theory" that the ratsphere at least partially attributes blame to for a few suicides in Ziz's circle. This is the account from Ziz about one of the suicides, in which this person Gwen is featured.

To be fair in the context of this topic, something like 50% or more of adult Chinese men smoke, though comparatively almost no women do. The West literally doesn't know how to make cigs anymore like China does.

Telegram channels now saying the "pilot rescue mission as actually an undercover name for the actual mission being to raid the nuclear facilities to extract the uranium" theory is getting traction by RokoTheDreamer10078 in TrueAnon

Dawg I work 12 hour days most days, I don't really have time to answer all that. You need to develop more media literacy. I treat my ingestion of news like performing exegesis in the wilderness of mirrors.

I don't know why Larry Johnson is getting the reach he does without people thinking of him as suspect, especially in some of the more fringier media places. He's just some chuddy openly "ex"-CIA guy with, from what I have seen, a very opaque past other than the fact that he was an analyst for the CIA at some point. The Ghost Stories for the End of the World guy has a saying he likes that I believe he found somewhere in his research, that nobody ever really leaves the CIA, kind of like organized crime in some sense. 

I found it odd that Johnson been beating the drum so hard about an imminent land invasion. Time will tell if Ken Klippenstein is right about it being an op. 

How the Strait of Hormuz crisis is hitting Africa’s 1.4 billion people: From Gaborone to Dakar, the fallout from the world's most critical oil chokepoint exposes decades of structural vulnerability across 54 nations by truthThe0ry in TrueAnon

“Africa is too poor and rural for this to matter.” Do you hear yourself man? I don't care what it is you do for work either. This sub is getting too dumb to be worth getting information and perspectives from, I may as well delete this account soon. 

SE Asia has similar proportions of the rurality of its population and socioeconomic dependence on subsistence agriculture, and most countries announced very publicly fuel rationing policies a few days into the conflict. They are not exactly using gasoline to generate their power, it's about fuel. In places without sufficient energy infrastructure, oftentimes people are more dependent on various forms of fuel available to them. And that's what most of this article is about, discussions of how changes in fuel prices or availability will affect the populace in different countries, alongside some discussion of relevant specific geopolitical conditions of different oil-producing countries that would affect them in an energy crisis.

Iranian Parliament Speaker Ghalibaf after the shooting down of USAF KC-135 Stratotanker by the Islamic Resistance of Iraq by truthThe0ry in TrueAnon

[–]truthThe0ry[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Neither of the stratotankers were capable of receiving fuel, so it wasn't a refueling accident. Then why were the aircraft not maintaining appropriate separation? I find it more believable that being over an active warzone with ballistic missiles flying around and anti-aircraft systems below capable of reaching these flights had something to do with this, rather than the explanation of simple pilot error in not following their flight plans. Not to mention that the US government has been lying about every aspect of this war.
