Gentle nerd freak of the pacific northwest. All nation states are vermin.
Immortality has been the dream of autocrats for millennia. As soon as we see centralized oppressive regimes, we see leaders obsessed with immortality and their afterlife.
Death is the final equality and we’ll always see the most bloated parasitic elites trying to skirt their responsibility to die like it was their fair share of the tax burden.
Here’s the article without the link to reddit: https://www.euronews.com/2025/07/10/armenia-and-azerbaijan-move-closer-to-peace-pushing-russia-out-from-the-south-caucasus
It feels a little overblown to me. My understanding is that Russia spurned Armenia and gave their blessing to Azerbaijan’s defeat of Armenia. So it’s not too surprising that Armenia didn’t want Russia to broker the peace, and Azerbaijan didn’t need them - they won.
There are troubles in Russo-Armenian relations, but there’s no details of Azerbaijan distancing themselves from Russia. If anyone knows more, please let me know.
It’s not leaked, it’s intentionally published on an official substack.
The memo itself is just more lies from christian nationalists. This one is from a catholic who has previously called for ending democracy and having the church take over the state, pretending that he loves the democratic freedoms of places like Hungary and wants to protect them from the evil fascism of anyone left of Hitler.
I have no problem with insulting fascists, bootlickers and other vermin, but a lot of that “inbred … chaw spitting … mullet-wearing six-toed cross-eyed cousin-fucking” stuff doesn’t feel right to me.
Maybe it feels elitist? Like the way he says ‘this is a particularly stupid version of fascism’ is by describing it with images that conjure up stereotypes used against the rural working class. Like you could add the word “peasant” and it wouldn’t look out of place.
led crowds in chants of “free, free Palestine” and “death, death to the IDF” [The BBC said:] “The antisemitic sentiments expressed by Bob Vylan were utterly unacceptable … " [Starmer said:] “appalling hate speech.”
“Free Palestine” is not antisemitic. Criticism of a nation state’s armed forces is not antisemitic. Especially when those armed forces are objectively committing genocide.
That’s him, the one whose stated goals can be seen in every move the trump regime makes.
A lot of people do seem to think “bush looks good in comparison to trump”, ignoring the fact that the open corruption and rejection of reality under bush was an earlier iteration of our current fascist coup, an important stage in that same process.
Obama openly refusing to enforce the law against those bush era criminals (“I’m looking forward not backward”) was another important step towards fascism.
It’s worth remembering the bush era’s invade the hague act, committing the US to a military attack on the ICC if they prosecute any US personnel for the many war crimes we committed in full view of the world.
Sanctioning judges for acting on an allies’ war crimes is new, sure. But the US is an old hand at spitting in the face of international law to protect mass murderers from justice.
A substantial portion of the anthropocene extinction event is the Monsanto extinction event.
Domestic violence is within a family, especially spouses, femicide is “when women and girls are killed because of their gender”, to quote the article.
Prosecuting and jailing fascists for the crimes they commit is a requirement for fighting fascism. Here in the US I’m just not convinced yet that Dems are willing to break the taboo on jailing the rich.
Australia has compulsory voting, parties with only minority support can’t win by suppressing turnout.
AI or bot account, looks like.
Note that he acknowledges his decision is “not popular” - seems like opposing genocide is still a minority position in Israeli society. That doesn’t bode well for the Palestinians that Israel hasn’t killed yet.
