Coming joys, like tropical shores, throw over before them an odorous wind and we are lulled by this intoxication without a thought of the horizon we do not know
there was a very silly left twitter era where people thought it was epic to act like they were about to stuff dweebs in lockers before driving to the hometown game with their cheerleader gf, so it's good we've once again realized that frat bros are the vanguard of fascism and not…
A white Ole Miss frat boy dances like a monkey and makes monkey noises near a Black woman who was protesting for Palestine.

Rich men North of Richmond singer says “it’s aggravating seeing people on conservative news try to identify with me like I’m one of them.”
He says it’s funny they used it in the GOP debate because “I wrote that song about them.”
Imagine for a second during WW2, if German citizens were blocking food and aid going into a concentration camp full of starving people.
No, Germans were evil but didn't go as far as today's Zionists.
imho the paradox of our times is the wealth gap between the rich and poor is grotesquely large but the tangible differences in quality of life are barely even perceptible. Mitt Romney is just sitting on the couch all weekend watching Netflix, eating stale leftovers, & scrolling

explains how people in North Korea can get executed for simply having dust on a portrait of Kim Jong Un in your home: "If there's a tiny bit of dust gathered on the portrait, that's how you end up getting executed, because your loyalty is not good enough."
approximately 33% of the replies/qt's are legitimately fucked up and the other two thirds are people indignant that their therapist has ever challenged them on anything lmao
“The Vietnam protest—-“
Were followed by Richard Nixon becoming President, Republicans dominating politics until the 1990’s, and Democrats shifting towards hard on crime policies. Y’all want to talk about history but don’t want to talk about how it fits together.
1968-1992.
shoplifting is based but if you're shoplifting from small business/black owned business/native owned business/etc you're missing the entire point of shoplifting. don't steal from the poor. take back from the rich. pirate disney movies, hack your 3DS. make your own fucking coffee.
fascinating new type of person on here who has an encyclopedic knowledge of cold war US intelligence operations but has no clue why jihadist movements don't like Russia
The rural discourse on here is always really alienating to me bc...95%+ of American "rurals" are just exurbanites who drive trucks right? The discourse makes it sound like Trump voters in Montana are equivalent to, like, a goat herder in Nepal who's never left his village
i really liked oppenheimer overall but i think we can all collectively admit that the "a young senator by the name of Kennedy...John F Kennedy" line like he was joining the fucking MCU was...
it's honestly such a lucky break that "gender criticalism" can't take off here like it did in the UK because every major anti-trans figure is an integralist larper who also wants to ban women from voting and wearing pants
Matt Walsh rails against universal voting rights: “It's not fundamental to your human nature that you automatically are entitled to have a say over the political system in your country”
It is troubling to me that many people, especially on the left, seem to acknowledge and even celebrate this right to statehood for every group but the Jews.
Jews have a human right to their own state just as any other people do, Palestinians included.

Think about how bad the US military did in Vietnam, then imagine that in a country with thirty times the land area where a hundred million people are armed.
lucky break for the fascist Buddhist supremacist state that the western white mind is incapable of seeing their religion as anything more than hippies talking about zen and samsara
i'm pretty radically pro-palestine, but i think if you wind up in a place were you're arguing that rootless, wandering jews stole austrian schnitzel from the european blood and soil you should take a few deep breaths lol
insane that she's managed to successfully convince thousands of people that she like, lost the olympic gold medal to a trans woman instead of tying for 5th at a college freestyle meet
Imagine missing the point this much lol
It's not about the trophy & never has been. That trophy is meaningless & devalued entirely. It's about the message it sends to us. & it's the same message you're sending...that we don't matter.
Nebraska girls deserve better than you.
the way Zionism functions as a doom-loop where jews are harassed out of other middle eastern countries bc of Israel > move to Israel and become radicalized > more abuses against Palestinians > justification for those other countries to persecute jews again > repeat is so morbid
I just contacted two well-connected friends in Tunisia’s small Jewish community to inquire whether this tweet, about a synagogue attack there last night, was true.
Sadly, they said, it is.
The fire was set in protest against Israel last night at El Hamma synagogue near Gabes.
Obviously Vivek is not going to be president but tbh I wouldn't be surprised if a conventional politician never wins a gop primary again in our lifetimes. Feels like there's an endless supply of TV friendly fash businessmen
something people don't like to hear is that the pro-palestine movement in america is remarkably non anti-semitic and that's largely bc of elite consensus
Tucker calling Zelensky "ratlike persecutor of christians and friend of financial interests" just have the balls to say k*ke like you're salivating to man lol
did your friend in turn explain to you that the Israeli Left is so marginal that it can't even make it into the Knesset anymore and that the national security minister of Israel has a picture of a mass shooter up on his wall and has literally talked about putting arabs in camps
Trying to explain to a left-wing Israeli how it is the Western left aligns itself with a genocidal theocratic death cult instead of the Israeli left, which is an absolutely crunchy old-school collectivist kibbutz left, is an intellectual journey, let me tell you.
Okay but the reason you feel comfortable saying that because the idea of a violent native uprising in the year of our lord 2023 is so remote that 99.9% of Natives would think you're a lunatic if you even broached the subject. you're just writing fanfic no skin in the game
"You cannot ignore the racial dynamic of what happened today": Tennessee Republicans expel two Black lawmakers from state legislature for participating in anti-gun violence protests. Justin Pearson remarks after expulsion.
i'm not opposed to interviewing putin on principle but the tucker thing is just going to be them talking about wokeness and how western degeneracy has led to men dressed up as women allowed to corrupt the minds of the youth for 2 hours
Bolivia coup was rly the weirdest plotline. They conjured up an entire color revolution over Trump-ass election fraud claims, forced Morales to flee the country, consolidated power...and then when they lost the next election they just be like "ah well you've bested us, fairplay"
i'm pretty radically pro-palestine, but i think if you wind up in a place were you're arguing that rootless, wandering jews stole austrian schnitzel from the european blood and soil you should take a few deep breaths lol
Trump: "China, many years ago, was being taken over by much smaller countries bc they were all drugged out on the poppy fields. The poppy. The drugs. Heroin. The nation was drugged out. And then along came a very powerful leader, you know who that is, and he said, 'no more.'"
The Myanmar resistance has liberated a good 50% of the country while literally being armed with homemade 3D printed guns, it's so insane/evil that we don't just give them 1/10th of the money we've given Ukraine and topple the junta
Over 75 Myanmar Junta Forces Killed in Four Days of Clashes With Resistance -
#Myanmar
At least 76 Myanmar junta forces as well as three resistance fighters and two civilians were reportedly killed in the last four days as People’s Defense Force groups.
i hope the coup in russia is real because I need to read the greyzone takes about how the Wagner group was a CIA funded op doing a colour revolution against socialism
the "Hungary and Russia are the last Christian countries" bit is actually really revealing as to how "Christian" is just a signiifer for reactionary attitudes on cultural issues (gay people) and not about actually going to church or adherence to belief
Tucker: "They hate Hungary because it's a Christian country. Nobody wants to say it, but it's true. That is enough to incite our policymakers in the United States and that is exactly why they hate Russia, by the way."
It’s clear the American XL Bully dog is a danger to our communities.
I’ve ordered urgent work to define and ban this breed so we can end these violent attacks and keep people safe.
The "actually high school bullying is cool, loners deserve to get shoved into lockers, the meritocracy is real when it comes to being popular" is the most annoying form of signaling big left accounts do on here I think
major non-NATO ally of the US while also funding and hosting Hamas, using the arab spring to boost resistance movements in literally every other country but their own...just shuffling the deck every 5 minutes to see what happens
Can you imagine the media doing this for a russian-american congresswoman every time something bad happened in Ukraine? stunning just how openly racist they're allowed to be
🚨WATCH: I asked Rep. Rashida Tlaib about Hamas terrorists chopping off babies heads, children being burned alive, and women being raped - she had nothing to say.
finally saw oppenheimer. was good but would have been way better if kitty oppenheimer had turned to the camera and said what kind of communist she-oh she did do that huh

alert:
MCCARTHY changes tone on aid to Ukraine to Russian reporter: “I support aid to Ukraine. I do not support what your country has done to Ukraine, or your killing of children. The rest of the world sees it for what it is.”
Amazing nugget in this New Yorker DeSantis story: His team polled anti-Trump messages to see what might work. Found that 70 percent of Republicans would say covid lockdowns were bad in 2020. But if you said "Trump's covid lockdowns," 70 percent disagreed.
