Hun, your slavish devotion to optics are shackles. Worse, you’re policing your peers, prioritizing the abstract appeal of your optics to a hypothetical other over their reality anchored and literal praxis.

Kill the cop in your head, babe. We’ll be over here when you’re ready.

Cool to see that JellyKey is still going strong!

Having one of their pieces was always a “woah, wouldn’t THAT be cool” type of aspirational things for me. Very skilled craftspeople - have lots of respect for their work.

Don’t you have a flag to wave over a razed hospital somewhere?

Exactly. The only language violence respects or listens to is violence.

It’s the tolerance paradox - and why it’s a death sentence to tolerate groups or people who won’t reciprocate tolerance.

Doesn’t mean they should get away with it.

Yeah, America really needs to get its shit together and shrug of corporate capture.

Broken clocks and all that - but this one only has one hand working at this point. We’re always counting down to midnight, for some reason.

I mean, it’s far right attacks on left-leaning politicians. I can see where they’re coming from - it’s reminiscent of the brown shirts.

Agreed. This was a copout.

They’re a last-ditch liberation movement with four discreet wings of praxis, dude. Moreover, the Palestinian Authority is collaborationist with occupying forces - this isn’t about manufacturing an endless war, though I’m sure Lockheed Martin and Elbit shareholders would love that - this is about reclaiming tangible avenues for political agency that were either captured or outright denied, violently, by ‘Israel’.

You disagree, sure, but you don’t seem to understand the inhuman scale, decades of systemic violence, a population has to endure to make violence the only mutually understood language left.

Also - to your point - it doesn’t help how many peaceful community leaders, politicians and organizers have been assassinated by the IOF and settlers in the last 75 years. Democracy, as presented by the PA, was never earnest or effectual in occupied Palestine - it was always a membrane of indigenous skin stretched over the occupiers demands.

The attack was claimed by ISIS-K - a foreign fighter offshoot/offbrand. Funny thing is that ISIS-K fighters were getting lifts from American chanook helicopters in Afghanistan and is largely made up of US assets and/or people formerly trained by the US in Afghanistan.

Lots points to it being a CIA asset, tldr. They’re a dirty army that can be used to keep an area distabilised or prevent other geopolitical powers from building infrastructure/influence (the nutshell purpose of ISIS-K, particularly in Afghanistan to prevent pipelines being built).

They had the inside scoop on an attack outside any usual operating theatre by a group with tangible links to US cooperation/orientation? No kidding.

It’s because the port is a forward operating base and entrenches the annexation of Northern Gaza. They built a road splitting Gaza into two and are shooting anyone who approaches it. Add to that the US wants warships present to defend the oilfields it’s just been liscenced by the occupation forces.

This is, and always was, about money and ethnic cleansing. Fuck israel, free Palestine.

Praise Rand. So wise.

Actually, as a fun little aside, can you explain to me what you think Fascism is?

People, Palestinians - primary sources - post footage they film on the ground and send out via TikTok et al - that’s raw footage. Like I’m still lost on what were you trying to say with that drone comment.

Yeah, they’re both colonies. Australia was the blueprint for Apartheid. I speak as an Australian - don’t trust these snakes. Penny Wong is an avowed ally to the Zionist project.

?

Just so we’re on the same page here - what exactly do you think raw footage means?

It’s raw footage, homie.

Thank God, an enlightened centrist! What knowledge can you throw down to us critically engaged peasants from the top of the horseshoe??? We’re so hungry as a result of communism or something

The Nazis tainted everything they touched, I don’t see why this should be any different. And yes, the comparison is apt.

Very few things in life are black and white - this is.

You either support genocide or you don’t. You either support an increasingly fascistic apartheid ethnostate or you don’t. Lines are notoriously difficult to draw but they’re extremely clear cut here.

Israel and the Zionist project gains legitimacy by proximity to genuinely honorable people like the ones you brought up - it’s rhetorical propaganda.

I appreciate I’m taking a strong stance in my wording here but for gods sake, man - look at the whole thing. A dying empire is dusting off old world colonialism, complete with unabashed ethnic cleansing and the entire Western world is to-the-hilt complicit. History and systemic decline is being written. I don’t consider my language an overreaction - at all.

Honestly, I think we’re pretty solidly the baddies at this point.
