Compare the actual genocide that’s unfolding in Gaza to Xinjiang. See the difference? That’s why.

Additionally, the level of repression in Xinjiang is baseline reality for anybody living in any of the American-backed monarchies and dictatorships of the MENA region, so it’s not even considered unusual to them.

Guaido ran off to Florida and is getting paid a fat salary from the “Adam Smith Center for Economic Freedom” to give seminars nowadays. Curious that all of these “democratic freedom fighters” never stay around in their own country for long.

Venezuela’s petroleum deposits are oil sands, very deep underground under old growth rainforest. Oil sands are mined, not pumped like conventional oil, so it would require ripping up all that old growth rainforest so that they can start digging. For that reason Venezuela’s oil patch is one of the last on earth that’s mostly untapped, and you know the American government is drooling at the idea of getting their hands on it.

Here’s what mining oil sands looks like in Alberta (Canada) as a visualizer:

Considering the pivot to China, there’s likely someone at the US State Department right now with their finger hovering over the “coup” button for El-Sisi…

Have you paid attention to whats coming out of western countries? They’ve doubled and tripled down on oil in America and Europe still has its pathetic addiction to Russian gas. Oil still rules west of the Urals, green energy transition is nowhere to be found. I’ve been hearing “Europe will wean itself off Russian gas this year” for over 3 years now, likely will not happen as long as Arab countries keep the price of oil at basement prices, at Israel’s gunpoint.

In short, it’s just because of oil. And American interests, which is a longer way of saying oil. Israel is an American outpost in an oil-rich region and serves its purpose of keeping the other Arab countries weak, divided and corrupt by constantly dishing out violence, bribes and blackmail in every direction.

And yes, the UK is doing this in America’s interests and not their own, because the UK is not a sovereign country. It is a colonized puppet state of the Americans and has been since at least Tony Blair.

I dont get why the government is blocking sending the whales to China tho. If the choice is the government bankrolling Marineland, the whales being killed or the whales being sent to China isn’t selling them to China the obviously best choice? Are they worried that the big bad Chinese will steal our Whale IP?

Calling Japan a full democracy is a stretch. They’ve been ruled by one party for over half a century, and definitely not b/c they’re good at their jobs.

Liberals will ALWAYS end up siding with the Fascists to try to suppress the Left. Happened in Germany in the 1930s, and the dumbass liberals eventually ended up lined up against the same walls the communists and socialists were lined up against. If you’re a liberal today and defending this fascist suppression against Palestine Action: you’re next.

So? I support Palestine Action and all actions they’ve taken to stop the UK’s complicity in genocide. It’s illegal to say this in the UK.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ChinaAngVirus_disinformation_campaign ??? America did that. I’ve heard no reports of Chinese vaccine misinfo in the Philippines until now. Makes me wonder if this is a “no u” post-reveal ass covering now that Trump is back in office.

The longer Macron desperately clings to power through anti-democratic means the more and more likely it gets that the National Rally’s candidate will be the next president.

The Nepali student is very likely dead and buried in an Israeli mass grave or under rubble unfortunately. All of the foreign workers were released in January.

A better question is if you can name a country that isn’t “anti-foreigner” or don’t have a significant % of the population that’s anti-foreigner. This is a widespread problem everywhere you go, even supposedly “woke” European countries (especially those countries, really).

A few facts to keep in mind in the coming weeks regarding this deal:

• All of the “hostages” are really prisoners of war, everyone currently in Hamas captivity was an active duty IDF soldier captured from military bases in Israel or taken captive while in Gaza as they were committing genocide.

• Hamas has offered to release all the hostages in exchange for a full ceasefire since October 11, 2023

• Israel is an illegal genocidal apartheid regime that’s committed to annexing and ethnically cleansing all Palestinian land, and as such will likely try to scuttle this peace deal and blame Hamas.

Agree for a main computer but there’s no risk when using Windows 7 or XP on an offline machine.

Either Eurovision boycotts Pissrael or we continue our boycott of Eurovision as we’ve done for the last 2 years. They had no hesitation in giving Russia the boot in 2022 so the fact its taken 3 years is indefensible. The only difference is the religion and skin colour of the people being slaughtered.

There’s still a few weeks until 25.10 releases. If its still issues by release time I’m sure that they’ll either delay the 25.10 release (as they have done in the past) or pause the coreutils-rs rollout and stick to GNU Coreutils for this release.

+972 Magazine (an Israeli anti-genocide publication) and Drop Site News actually were the first ones to break the story.
