  • Iranian state media confirms death of Ayatollah Ali Khamenei

  • For a 2nd time, national poll finds more Americans sympathetic with Palestinians than the settlers

    Jump

  • And now those Americans are finding out that freedom of speech was always conditional on you speaking the right thing. They just didn't realize it before because they happened to have the acceptable opinion.

  • Zohran pulls through

    Jump

  • Oh shit, I actually missed that he said Iranian New Yorkers. I retract the point about the third paragraph then. The post is not bad actually.

  • Zohran pulls through

    Jump

  • Exactly.

  • Zohran pulls through

    Jump

  • As much as I wish I could agree that he pulled through...

    First paragraph: great. If only the post ended here.

    Second paragraph: I'm gonna... uhm... increase the coordination with the repressive state apparatus to Increase Safety™.

    Third paragraph: Anyways, we as New Yorkers don't really have to fear any retaliation from Iran, so no worries, you can go back to brunch after you express your dissent on social media.

    And don't get me wrong. It IS a genuine improvement over "Maduro is a dictator" approach to US foreign policy, so critical support is due.

  • Anti-ICE Democrat Congress candidate Kat Abughazaleh outed as supporter of US interventionism

  • You don't understand, she only supports the dream of Palestinian self-determination, as in, she wants them to keep dreaming.

    Redditor experiences mental breakdown when confronted in-person with reality that contradicts their anti-China indoctrination

    Jump

  • I've seen the truth with my own eyes, but all the things I believed before must still somehow be true and I couldn't have possibly been lied to.

  • Some great talks here. I especially recommend listening to Ben Norton's presentation.

    Jump

  • Indeed. I would also particularly recommend the segments by the last two panelists, Barry Lituchy and Sara Flounders, starting around 1h15m mark, focusing on the destruction of Yugoslavia.

  • Germans and chauvinism name a more iconic duo.

    Jump

  • Even more hilariously, they propose a "one country-two systems" arrangement between PRC and Taiwan would only be possible if PRC abandoned its current system.

    You know, the arrangement pioneered by and unique to the scary Communist China.

  • The record gap between corporate profits and worker pay has an ‘undercurrent of betrayal,’ top economist warns - by Jason Ma at Fortune Mag

    Jump

  • Holy shit that chart is such a clear indication that the workers of the imperial core have the Soviet Union to thank for their relatively better than now historical standing. But they've been trained to celebrate its overthrow instead.

  • More Perfect Union does a short dive into Bohemian Grove, a small group of elites who set the agenda for the US

    Jump

  • It's big club and you ain't in it.

  • CIA was reportedly informed early on of the plans of the Nord Stream attackers.

    Jump

  • even when Biden explicitly said they would destroy it!

    Only for Trump to take credit for it anyway.

  • Kansas City developers halt sale of warehouse for ICE detention center as public pressure mounts

    Jump

  • They'll just wait for people to lose interest and do it quietly. Or use some other warehouse.

    Macron: China is an authoritarian regime, no offense, this is a collective choice. In contrast, we, the European Union, remain a place where rule of law and predictability remains valid.

    Jump

  • China is an authoritarian regime, no offense, this is a collective choice.

    So what he means is, China is authoritarian by... democratic choice of the Chinese people?

    I suppose that's progress from the usual liberal position.

  • Shah-loving diasporoids when a supposed Constitutional Monarchy is actually constitutional

    Jump

  • You'd think so, and I don't think anyone of them tried, but as a counterpoint: Macron (who is as close as you can get to a King of France without being one at this point) did pretty much that multiple times and nothing happened.

  • A Polish article about the overthrow of socialism in San Marino from 1959

    Jump

  • Thanks for the post, fascinating read. I have to admit, I had no idea San Marino had a socialist experiment.

    Although it seems like it was more of a case of a communist party winning elections in coalition with a socialist party right after WWII. Which would've happened throuought most of Europe if not for American interference. I guess San Marino just wasn't important enough. Doesn't seem like they reformed the electoral system much either, just focusing on Good Governance™.

    Of course, as a tiny city-state, they had no means to defend their gains, so the experiment collapsed the moment foreign powers decided to "do something about it".
