Rules:
-- PLEASE KEEP POST TITLES INFORMATIVE --
-- Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed. --
-- All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. --
-- If you are citing a twitter post as news please include not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/ or archive them as you would any other reactionary source using e.g. https://archive.today . Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed --

-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--
-- Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned. --
-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --
I'm speaking.
But remember, you've gotta support the people supporting this, or you're being unrealistic
I've been listening to the Trillbilly Worker's Party a lot lately but Tarence really hit the nail on the head on the most recent episode where he compared Israel to the nascent Confederacy from the founding era to Bleeding Kansas as a primary contradiction that just kept being kicked down the road until it exploded.
Everyone knew and understood that slavery was a fundamental contradiction in American ideology that would inevitably cause a rupture in the civil order at some point just based on the divergent political economy of the north and south at the time and the way they both wanted westward expansion, and that got papered over for about four score and seven years until that bloodshed was unavoidable.
Now the genocidal settler-collonial project of Israel is the same kind of primary contradiction. It's been propped up since its inception by the US as a geopolitical bulwark to achieve the empire's goals, but since October 7th has reached a level of depravity and fervor that can't be denied anymore.
Think of the shitlibs shouting down the anti-genocide protesters at the Kamala rally in Detroit. Did any of them deny that a genocide is happening? Did any of them deny that Biden and Kamala support it? No. Just a vague gesture towards the possibility of a second Trump term being somehow worse for Palestine.
Harris and Walz are consciously running to be the James Buchanans of Israel presiding over the slaughter and starvation of millions of Palestinians until the contradiction collapses and destroys the Zionist project and American geopolitical hegemony for good. No matter what they do, they'll never be able to wash that blood from their hands, and I hope Hell is real and they spend eons there for what they've done.
Hasbara in many YT coments has been absolutely disgusting. They flood any video about with "the media lies" "don't hide your terrorists in schools" to "you shouldn't have started" mocking the entire thing.
It makes me lose faith in humanity but then I rememebr this is Hasbara doing psyops to mznufacture reality.
