just sit back and scarf down that lasagna
>>2373334You should be out there fomenting a revolution and laying the groundwork for the creation of armed cadre. The way you do this is through regimenting people in militant, non-violent action until the state has to mobilize to crush you directly. At this point armed struggle, the only realistic strategy, becomes the logical next step.
Once you start with armed struggle, the goal will not be to engage the states forces, not right away, but to build up strength and capabilities gradually through actions like sabotage.
>>2373348Fuck the lyrics to that song besides how shitty the music is.
>If tomorrow all the things were gone I'd worked for all my life>And I had to start again with just my children and my wife>I'd thank my lucky stars to be living here todayWhat the fuck dude? Why is this an idea? You're an American, you lived here your whole life already, but for some reason you have to start from 0 again and this is the best place to do it? Why do you have to start from 0 again? Medical emergency that bankrupted you or some shit? Evil negative ass apologia.
>And I'm proud to be an American, where at least I know I'm free>And I won't forget the men who died, who gave that right to meThat at least doing some heavy lifting. Like maybe everything in your life is shit, but
AT LEAST I know I have some vague undefined concept of "freedom."
>>2373329and I have to remind you of these facts (Originally written by Houdini) as a typical conversation between a "third worldist" (a westerner):
>Americans are all treatlers, our quality of life is only so high because of imperialism!<ok, but 9% of americans don't have running water>no you don't get it, we need our treats or the hogs will get mad<ok, but 25% of americans are effectively unemployed and living in poverty>no you don't get it, the only way things could be this good is because of imperialism<ok, but 10% of americans do 50% of the spending and the bottom 50% does effectively none>no, you don't get it, look check out my patreon exclusive podcast, that explains everything<ok, but you're making 270,000 a year via patreon, so maybe that's why you shill for imperialism with this treatler shitScreenshot Related.
>>2373356It's pretty funny how you all think I'm a third worldist or a Sakaist when I am in fact a Stalinist.
You are just hopelessly naive and have no understanding of history. You think there is some grand proletarian consciousnesses here and there isn't. People are indoctrinated from birth to accept this system as, often literally, divinely inspired. Bourgeois capital still holds the reigns firmly in hand and there is no force which can realistically threaten them, either internal or external.
In order for us to even have a chance of piercing the panopticon of bourgeois domination we have to seriously degrade the authority of the state, the instrument of terror of the bourgeoisie. We have to do this before we can even organize the working class.

>>2373375A person doesn't want to die of starvation so he becomes an employee and is being forced to work for the employer in exchange for money. The employer keeps most of the income the employee generated with pennies on the dolor given back as salary. The employee can continue to be taken advantage of or take over the business of the employer.
In very simple logic I just explained the first steps in why workers want to create socialism. It's literally people just logically following their self interest. Marxism explains the process in much more detail.

>What does any of this bullshit have to do with today?Capitalism still exists. It's core processes are not gone. Only some superficial aspects have changed. So obviously if 1+1=2 over hundred years ago then it would still be 1+1=2 today.
>You've just created a more insane form of Christianity.No, because his word isn't gospel. It has to reflect reality for it to be considered correct.
People keep blaming feminism for society falling apart, but that is missing the real issue. Womenâs rights did not invent female sexuality, it just stopped repressing it. The truth is women have strong sexual drives, sometimes stronger than menâs, but for most of history that fact was controlled through shame, religion, and rigid social roles. Now that those restraints are gone, women are finally acting on desires they always had. This is not some new cultural sickness, it is human nature showing itself once you take the leash off. The problem is not women being free, it is that most people were too comfortable with the lie that women are naturally modest and have low sex drive.
What you are seeing today is not female empowerment creating chaos, it is a society that does not know how to deal with real female sexual agency. Men assumed they would always be the ones chasing, but now women chase who they want and it is not always the average guy. Instead of blaming feminism or women's rights, men need to adapt to the reality that female sexuality is not weak or passive. If you cannot compete, whining will not save you. The solution is not going back to the 1950s, it is learning to deal with the truth instead of hiding from it.
>>2373410>Engels isn't perfect. But he has some interesting insights into the processes of capitalism. And if he is right about something then he is right.I agree and wasn't denying that. But you should say what you think speaks to our current situation instead of trying to just "call to authority."
>Capitalism still exists. It's core processes are not gone. Only some superficial aspects have changed. So obviously if 1+1=2 over hundred years ago then it would still be 1+1=2 today.That's a lie. I wish we could resurrect Engels and Marx so they could debunk all of you. Maybe when we have perfected AI/LLM technology, roboMarx will be able to convince you how stupid you are for trying to dogmatically follow his word to the letter and shoehorn irrelevant commentary into every situation.
>No, because his word isn't gospel. It has to reflect reality for it to be considered correct.Agree to agree. So really there is no weight their words have. If you could use them to elucidate a matter, fantastic. If you want to use them to counter something to with some unrelated commentary on an unrelated matter, go fuck yourself. I give no ultimate weight to the "heads" opinions anyways.
>>2373411I don't think women have stronger sexual drives, I just think all the old wisdom is correct. The lock and key metaphor.
>A key that opens all locks is a master key<A lock that opens to any key is a useless lockSo naturally the locks want to sleep with the master key, the most desirable men, and the get the chance to without supposed consequence in current society, and then I won't go into t he rest.

>>2373520>Such treatment of a historical figure can have far-reaching consequences. Using Rogow as his source, Otto Friedrich, in Going Crazy, refers to Forrestal as "mad as King Lear" (5, p. 205) and includes a long list of additional "symptoms." Among these are maintaining "a kind of clearinghouse for tales of Communist subversion fed by reports from J. Edgar Hoover, and such militant clerics as Francis Cardinal Spellman and Fulton J. Sheen . . ." (5) The implication is that Forrestal's behavior was irrational. Note, however, that he was in distinguished company. Hoover, Spellman, and Sheen, while contributing to the "clearinghouse," were apparently not "as mad as King Lear." While Forrestal was certainly a staunch antiCommunist, he was not a "head hunter"; he defended prospective Atomic Energy Commission Chairman David Lilienthal against Senate charges of being a Communist sympathizer on several occasionsâ.<âForrestal's defense of Lilienthal should also pose problems for those who have labeled Forrestal as antisemitic.>Rogow concedes that Forrestal was an avid reader who often exchanged books with his friends and was a genuine student of Marxism. His alleged "clearinghouse" may reflect mainly the interests of a concerned and highly intelligent man. The "irrational" conclusions he reached as a result of his readings in Marxism were that something akin to the Cold War was inevitable, that the Soviet Union would exploit the power vacuums left by the defeats of Germany and Japan, and that Russia would expand. However, Friedrich insists on presenting these concerns as symptoms of abnormality.
>We do not deny that Forrestal was under great stress at the end of his career. However, we have found no convincing evidence that he was dangerously psychotic or incapable of discharging his duties while in office. There is no justification for saying that his policies and positions were somehow the products of a diseased mind, unless we are willing to make the same assumptions about literally millions of people who have entertained similar beliefs. Nevertheless, they have been interpreted as such in Forrestal's case.
>The final tragedy of the Forrestal case, therefore, is that the man himself, and his ideas and contributions, have been lost in discussions of his "illness". In addition to previous examples, we may note that his prediction that the United States would be at war very shortly was dismissed as "paranoid" despite the fact that it was fulfilled only a few months later by the Korean conflict. Similarly, perhaps his most controversial position was his opposition to the partition of Palestine and the creation of Israel in 1948. Truman (6) presents this as an example of extremely poor judgment on Forrestal's part despite the fact that the latter was supported by the joint Chiefs of Staff and almost the entire State Department. Yet the reasons Forrestal gave for his position â that it would eventually endanger relations with other Middle Eastern nations, threaten our oil supplies, and possibly lead to military entanglements in the area â seem all too prophetic today. However we may feel about the wisdom of Truman's pro-Israel policy, Forrestal's opposition to it can hardly be dismissed as the raving of a madman. Forrestal also emphasized guerilla warfare as the tactic of the future, a warning that long went unheeded in our involvement in IndochinaBut everyone is going to say that ZOG is smart geopolitics and that ZOG doesn't exist.
https://thecradle.co/articles-id/31787Netanyahu sends negotiating team to Qatar despite âunacceptable' Hamas demands <Hamas has reportedly requested several amendments to the new proposal, including Israeli troop withdrawals and the reinstatement of a UN aid mechanism Israel sent a negotiating team to Qatar on 6 June to discuss with mediators the latest proposal for a ceasefire in Gaza, which Hamas said it has responded âpositivelyâ to.
The office of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu announced the plans in a statement the night before, but said several of the amendments requested by the Palestinian resistance movement were ânot acceptable to Israel.â
The statement did not specify which of the amendments were unsatisfactory.
"The amendments that Hamas wishes to introduce to the Qatari proposal are unacceptable to Israel. Nevertheless, Prime Minister Netanyahu has decided to accept the invitation for indirect talks and to continue negotiations regarding the retrieval of the hostages, based on the Qatari proposal that Israel has approved,â Netanyahuâs office said.
According to a source cited by Times of Israel, Hamas has demanded that talks for a permanent ceasefire continue until a deal is reached, that humanitarian aid flow resume through UN mechanisms, and that Israeli troops withdraw to positions they held before the collapse of the previous ceasefire in March.
Other Hebrew media reports also confirmed disagreements on these three points.
The resistance group announced on Friday that it had delivered to mediators its response to the proposal â which is based heavily on the framework put forward previously by US envoy Steve Witkoff.
âThe movement has delivered its response to the esteemed mediators, which was characterized by positivity. Hamas is fully ready and serious about immediately entering a round of negotiations on the mechanism for implementing this framework,â it said in a statement.
Sources speaking to Lebanese newspaper Al-Akhbar last week claimed that as part of the proposal, Israeli troops are required to withdraw to the positions they held before the last ceasefire collapsed, as Hamas has reportedly demanded.
At the time, Israeli forces had withdrawn from the Netzarim Corridor in central Gaza, but remained stationed along the Philadelphi Corridor on the GazaâEgypt border.
They also claimed the proposal includes aid flow resuming through a UN mechanism, as well as a commitment to continue talks over the general future of the ceasefire, even if a deal on ending the war is not reached before the truce period begins.
Al-Araby al-Jadeed cited sources as saying that Hamas was âsatisfiedâ with the proposal.
US President Donald Trump claimed early on 2 July that Israel had agreed to the latest proposal.
Hamas has continued to insist on a permanent end to the war and a full withdrawal of Israeli forces from Gaza â the two main sticking points that have prevented a deal from going through so far.
Netanyahu has repeatedly refused to end the fighting before Hamas is completely defeated, disarmed, and its leaders are exiled from the strip.

>>2373746no you don't understand. people will only support revolution when they're dying by millions, whereas they'll support the system if it gives them a few treats. so you have to trigger the system into killing everyone and then maybe they'll fight back… against the system. if they still don't well they deserve to die!

>>2373784any group of people on earth, when face with the choice of acknowledging and feeling shame every atrocity in their history, or trying to spin it into a point of pride, or perhaps saying it never happened, or that the victims deserved it, will overwhelmingly choose the latter options. I find this is true for both Europeans and non-Europeans, for both light skinned and dark skinned. It's true regardless of religion. People just engage in groupthink and atrocity denial on behalf of their culture. Not just because they're in denial about what their ancestors did, but because what their ancestors did will be in vain if they don't. It's a survival strategy. A terrifying one but pretty universal. Humans have been using petty prextexts to rape pillage and plunder one another for millennia. All "indigenous" populations do this to each other before the "colonizers" arrive. Turns out people colonize and genocide the people 5 miles away before they do it to the people 5000 miles away. For a place like Germany to even be possible turns of Germanic tribes had to slaughter each other and consolidate territory, language, custom, etc. for a very long time until the idea of being "A German" emerged out of the chaotic patchwork of local small cultures. This is the truth nuke nobody wants to hear. Historically, people care way more about forcing everyone else to have the same skin color, speak the same language, worship the same God, and deny the same historical atrocities, than they care about abolishing class. Only now do we live in an era where the idea of respecting other cultures in spite of their differences becomes possible. But even so, communism will probably emerge when there is a global melting of cultures into one homogenous "human" culture assuming we ever get there. The superstructure emerges from the base but it also shapes, maintains, and limits the base.
>>2373800I dunno, capitalism always seems to bounce back after crisis but even more unequal and worse
As for American hegemony, America is not growing weaker in any way in any area. Including Europe btw. By conflating China with le threat of Russia while also cutting their military spending in Europe America manged to push Europe away from China while benefiting their military industrial complex from which Europeans will buy weapons Americans no longer give them for free
>>2373805>I dunno, capitalism always seems to bounce back after crisis but even more unequal and worseThat's what I'm referring to.
The inherent, suicidal lifeline of capitalism is economic growth at all costs. Even if that means making wages static and killing manufacturing by massive amounts (turning more and more people into what is called "unskilled" labourers).
As a consequence, America is rapidly becoming incapable of producing and replenishing its major services, especially in regards to agriculture, infrastructure and defence, immeasurably more so than it did in previous generations especially before the economic stagnation of the 1970s. American control over its material assets outside the U.S, like the gulf states, is slipping. US domination of world shipping is dead. It's ability to replenish military assets during a war is so much slower than before. Not to mention it takes longer for them to modernise its already existing equipment such as strategic bombers and aircraft carriers. America is going through exactly what Britain did in the 1920s, its roles in the world are being co-opted by China.
>>2373767>Yeah, in elementary school. I am not going to sneak into a class of fourth graders to check.Yeah, true. I just have a feeling.

>>2373922Depressing how the death toll keeps on climbing and climbing every time I wake up and see news regarding this ever since it happened. Climate change and the capitalist forces that proliferate it so they can make a profit from everything that causes it and exacerbates it and its consequences are so goddamn despicable.
>>2373940Abso-fucking-lutely agreed here, hard not to see how the cuts to the NWS and NOAA played a role in this too.
>>2373936>>2373940Yeah it swept through a summer camp on the banks of the river while they were doing an all girls camp so most of the victims are little girls.
>>2373955>Depressing how the death toll keeps on climbing and climbing every time I wake up and see news regarding this ever since it happened. Climate change and the capitalist forces that proliferate it so they can make a profit from everything that causes it and exacerbates it and its consequences are so goddamn despicable.It's because they don't want to come out and say the missing people are dead when they're obviously dead. It's just hard to find their bodies after they were swept down stream with the debris. So the number of missing goes down, the fatalities goes up. So to save yourself the suspense the final death toll will be + the 11 still missing.
>>2373940>>2373955Eh, I don't think the funding cuts had anything to do with it. Yeah there was more rain than expected but the local NWS office had staff, and they sent out flash-flood warnings when it started happening. It just happened REALLY fast and the terrain is really gnarly (beautiful though) with these different intersecting creeks, and the rain appeared to fall in such a way that it created a "perfect storm" with multiple forks flooding at the same time, and it's hard to say such a thing CAN be predicted.
The high death toll seems to be because of vacationers in their RVs getting swept away and this youth summer camp that was there for the 4th of July. People not from around there. I've been to Kerrville a few times. It's basically like West Gash from Morrowind on the southern edge of the German settlement region (there's a German language Civil War Unionist monument not too far from there). It's pretty nice.
>>2373969are you sick of the red party?
are you sick of the blue party?
Try the red blue party!
>>2373988Eh, these Texas officials are a bunch of cowards in the middle of covering their own asses. The NWS people in Texas are saying the funding didn't affect their procedures. Here's a meterologist:
>Beginning last Sunday morning, forecast discussions from the NWS office in San Antonio and Austin noted the potential for heavy rain through the week. By Monday morning, they also noted the potential for nighttime warm rain processes in the western part of their coverage area, which would probably include Kerrville. By Tuesday afternoon they had specifically mentioned the potential for flooding on Thursday. Nothing really changed messaging wise on Wednesday or Thursday morning. By the afternoon, flood watches had been hoisted as the potential for significant rain became more evident.
>Modeling? Well, it was so-so. When it comes to heavy rain, the lower resolution global models can give you a sense of what may happen, but they're generally unable to resolve where the heaviest rains will fall. I went back and looked at some of the model rainfall forecasts for the event this past week. While some of the global models did indicate heavy rainfall potential, none were really flagging a high-risk type event. Even on Thursday morning, the WPC Excessive Rain Outlook showed a slight risk (2/4) in the area. We could probably say that the catastrophic rains were isolated enough that this was still reasonable. But truth be told, this probably deserved a moderate.
>Within their discussion, they did emphasize risks of 3 inches or more, which is a reasonable note to make.
>The higher resolution models did do better and did lead everyone down the correct path. On Wednesday night, the 00z HRRR model had about 7-9" in a few bullseyes between Mexico and Texas by Friday morning. By Thursday morning, the model showed as much as 10 to 13 inches in parts of Texas. By Thursday evening, that was as much as 20 inches. So the HRRR model upped the ante all day.
>The HREF model on Thursday morning, a tool developed from NOAA research also indicated the risk of 10" or more in spots, using the "probability matched mean" product which can identify higher risk areas for heavy rainfall. I've used this in Houston many times, often with considerable forecast success ahead of flooding events. It has a knack for cutting through some of these higher end events and highlighting those risks.
>So the signals were there and got worse as Thursday progressed. Messaging and flood watches responded to this appropriately and expanded into Thursday evening.
<The warnings
>Flash flood warnings were issued for areas before midnight as radar rain totals began to inflate up and over 3 to 4 inches. A flash flood emergency was issued at 4 AM for the Kerrville storms and 4:15 AM for storms near San Angelo. Rain totals were estimated to be encroaching on 10 inches at that point. So there was warning. This NWS office is acutely aware of the threats to the area from flooding, and the history is there. So I am assuming they were timely warnings unless I hear otherwise.
>Issuing the warning is half the process. Were the warnings received and acted on? That's another story. And that will also come out in the days ahead. More on that below.
<Did budget cuts play a role?
>No. In this particular case, we have seen absolutely nothing to suggest that current staffing or budget issues within NOAA and the NWS played any role at all in this event. Anyone using this event to claim that is being dishonest. There are many places you can go with expressing thoughts on the current and proposed cuts. We've been very vocal about them here. But this is not the right event for those takes.
>In fact, weather balloon launches played a vital role in forecast messaging on Thursday night as the event was beginning to unfold. If you want to go that route, use this event as a symbol of the value NOAA and NWS bring to society, understanding that as horrific as this is, yes, it could always have been even worse.
<What should we be asking about then?
>Beyond the fact that this was truly a tragedy that is extremely difficult to disseminate warnings on, I think we need to focus our attention on how people in these types of locations receive warnings. This seems to be where the breakdown occurred.
>It's not as if catastrophic flash flooding is new in interior Texas. There are literal books written about the history. The region is actually referred to as "Flash Flood Alley." But how we manage that risk is crucially important context here. Are there sirens in place? Do there need to be sirens in place? Would people even hear sirens in the middle of the night in cabins or RVs or wherever they were? Tornado sirens have traditionally been used in parts of the country for people outdoors to get warnings. Is that an appropriate method in this region for the middle of the night and indoors?
>Do we need to start thinking of every risk of flooding in Texas as a potential high-end event we should pre-evacuate the highest risk people (like children and elderly in floodways) for? Is that even practical? We can critique the answer given by the Kerr County judge here all day, but he's correct in that the reality is they deal with flooding a lot. What is actually practical? I don't know the answers to these questions. But it's been a little over 10 years since Wimberley, which was a wake up call in some ways too. It's time for another, and we need to think much bigger than just the areas impacted this time and more about Flash Flood Alley as a whole. Flooding risk is high in Texas. People learn to live with it in some ways. But something like this absolutely cannot happen again. The Texas legislature meets for a special session beginning on July 21st.

X suspends Reuters account in India after 'legal demand'
The main Reuters account, followed by more than 25 million users globally, has been blocked in India since Saturday night. A note tells X users that "@Reuters has been withheld in IN (India) in response to a legal demand".
In an email to the Reuters social media team on May 16, X said: "It is our policy to notify account holders if we receive a legal request from an authorized entity (such as law enforcement or a government agency) to remove content from their account."
"In order to comply with X obligations under India's local laws, we have withheld your X account in India under the country's Information Technology Act, 2000; the content remains available elsewhere"

Maga influencer and de facto national security adviser Laura Loomer holds outsized sway on Trump
In early April, Loomer, a 32-year-old pro-Trump online influencer widely seen as a rightwing conspiracy theorist, met with Trump and gave him a list of names of people on the staff of the national security council that she believed were not loyal enough to Trump or at least had professional backgrounds that she considered suspect. Trump fired six staffers. Later, national security adviser Mike Waltz, whom Loomer had criticized for his role in the Signalgate chat leak scandal, was ousted as well.
Loomer doesnât have a job in the government, but she has still emerged as one of Trumpâs most important and most polarizing foreign policy advisers in the early days of his second administration. She has had direct access to Trump and has used it to push for ideological purges inside the administration, instilling fear and anger among national security professionals.
Trump himself has said he takes her seriously, so it may be more accurate to describe her as Trumpâs de facto national security adviser.
Press reports recently suggested that Loomerâs status in the White House was waning because she had overreached, much like Musk. She has left a trail of bitter Trump aides, while there have also been reports that Trump himself has grown weary of her. But, as if to disprove the reports that she was getting frozen out, Loomer had a private meeting with JD Vance in early June.
In a revealing interview on journalist Tara Palmeriâs podcast in late April, Loomer said that her White House access came directly from Trump himself, and that she maintained her relationship with the president even as his aides tried to keep her out. âDonald Trump is my biggest ally in the White House,â she said.
âI donât have delusions of grandeur, but I certainly do believe that a lot of the information I have given him has protected him and has prevented disasters from happening,â she added. âI believe that the information that I provide is valuable. And I believe that it has proven itself to be an asset to President Trump and his apparatus. I donât know why some of the people that work for him donât want that information around him. But Iâm not going to let that stop me. Iâm going to keep on uncovering information and finding ways to get it to President Trump â and informing President Trump about individuals within his inner circle that are working against his agenda.â
Loomer added that âit all comes down to vetting at the end of the dayâ.
Loomerâs close ties to Trump first became big news during the 2024 presidential campaign, when she traveled with the Republican candidate on his campaign plane despite repeated efforts by Trump aides to keep her away.
Once Trump returned to office, Loomer began to flex her newfound power, and even professional ties to top Trump administration officials werenât enough to protect staffers from being fired after Loomer gave her list of names to Trump. Among those fired at the NSC was Brian Walsh, who had worked on the staff of the Senate intelligence committee for Marco Rubio, now serving as both secretary of state and national security adviser, when Rubio was in the Senate.
The most stunning purge attributed to Loomer came in April when Trump fired Gen Timothy Haugh, the director of the National Security Agency, along with his top deputy, after they had found their way on to Loomerâs list as well. The fact that Loomer could trigger the firing of a senior military officer in charge of the nationâs largest intelligence agency finally led to a bipartisan outcry in Washington
She has even gone on the offensive against other rightwing influencers, including Tucker Carlson, who have dared criticize the Iran strike. âI am screenshotting everyoneâs posts and Iâm going to deliver them in a package to President Trump so he sees who is truly with him and who isnât,â Loomer posted. âAnd I think by now everyone knows I mean it when I say Iâm going to deliver something to Trump.â

DHS Dismisses Palestinian Woman's Treatment In ICE Detention As 'Sob Story'
âI guess what we would ask the American people is, 'Who are they gonna believe?'" said a lawyer for the stateless woman.
In the statement shared with HuffPost, DHS Assistant Secretary McLaughlin said âany claim that there is a lack of food or subprime conditions at ICE detention centers are false,â and that those who are detained are provided with proper meals, medical treatment, and opportunities to talk with family members and lawyers.
âEnsuring the safety, security, and well-being of individuals in our custody is a top priority at ICE. Meals are certified by dieticians,â McLaughlin said. âWhy does the media continue to fall for the sob stories of illegal aliens in detention and villainize ICE law enforcement?â

Former liberal climate activist says Mamdani is âselling a fantasy' Former liberal climate activist has used her platform to promote more conservative-aligned ideals
A former liberal climate activist who now embraces conservative ideals claimed young New York City voters who cast their ballot for the mayoral Democratic nominee Zohran Mamdani are misguided, and that his policies will make them poorer.
Lucy Biggers, a 35-year-old woman who once heavily advocated for environmental-saving policies but has since abandoned them, is using her social media following to promote her new beliefs that align more closely with Republicans: lower taxes, less regulation, and less government intervention. She has also downplayed the current impact of climate change on weather.
Taking to TikTok, Biggers tried to relate to Mamdaniâs supporters by saying she, too, would have loved a candidate like Mamdani when she was young, but she now sees his policies as flawed.
Referring to young voters as people with underdeveloped frontal lobes, Biggers said Mamdani appealed to the group of voters by selling them a fantasy that ultimately doesnât work.â
âYouâre indoctrinated as a young person in America to believe that capitalism is bad and all your problems is because of these evil business owners,â Biggers said in her TikTok video
âI have to warn young people who are caught up in the Mamdani vibes, the road to hell is paved with good intentions,â Biggers claimed
âHis policies are not going to be the things that fix our city or our government. The policies that we really, really need is less regulation, less taxes,â Biggers asserted. The social media personality told the New York Post that young people glorify socialism because âthey donât know what happened in Cuba, Venezuela, the USSR.â
Biggers now works for The Free Press, a right-leaning online media organization that sought investments from David Sacks, Marc Andreessen, Howard Schultz, and more.
However, from the TikTok comments, it appears Biggers has not convinced a major audience of her beliefs. Many cited her place of employment as a major influence on her anti-Mamdani rhetoric.

ICE Raids Derail Los Angeles Economy as Workers Go Into Hiding
https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2025-07-06/ice-raids-derail-los-angeles-economy-as-workers-go-into-hidingLos Angeles was already struggling to revive its fragile economy after the most destructive wildfires in its history erupted six months ago. Now, immigration raids are driving workers crucial to the rebuilding into the shadows.
Framers and landscapers are abandoning job sites. Renovations of retail shops have stopped midway. Real estate developers say theyâre struggling to find crews to keep projects on track in a sector that relies heavily on immigrant labor.

>Andrew Anglin: Black Sites like "Alligator Alcatraz" are intended for Americans, eventuallyPlease note that the Trump administration is also sending immigrants to Gitmo, the infamous black site in Cuba where the US spent decades torturing people it had kidnapped from various countries. Trump says he wants to hold 30,000 people there. Again, no one is explaining why they are not just sent back to their home countries. The US has an absolute ability to exert pressure on countries to accept the return of their people.
What exactly is even the purpose? We have jails. We have all of the leverage to deport people. We can make some concentration camp type holding facilities, just with modular homes and fences, and put them near the border. Wouldnât that make more sense?
Iâm not against putting immigrants in camps or cages or whatever. But another issue with this is that it only holds 5,000 people, which isnât really a very relevant number when we are talking about at least 50 million people who are eligible for deportation.
Further, the costs of flying people to this remote location, and holding them there â that doesnât make any sense at all to me. Again, you can quickly construct concentration camps in areas where immigrants can just be bussed in and processed. We can figure out where theyâre going and send them there.
I donât want to sound like a conspiracy theorist, but what this looks like to me is that we are normalizing the idea of black sites in America. Because this place, this Alligator Alcatraz, would make a lot more sense as a secret prison for Americans than as an immigrant detention facility. As an immigrant detention facility, it is incredibly expensive, elaborate, inefficient, and generally confusing.
Iâve written some about the Trump administrationâs relationship with Palantir. Thankfully, others are writing and podcasting about this issue as well. Basically, the administration is contracting this intelligence and military tech company to design a control grid in America, and when asked about it, the Trump people just claim it is for immigrants. But no one is even claiming that only immigrants will be included in these AI databases that are going to monitor everyone. Palantir is building and has basically already built and is now just implementing a surveillance grid run by AI that compiles all information on you, both from the government and from private companies (i.e., Google and Facebook, and the banks), which is set up to build a profile on you that knows everything about you. Itâs a total science fiction dystopian nightmare plan that few people are even bothering to talk about.
Palantir is a totally Jewish company which is involved heavily in the genocide in Gaza. The companyâs Jewish CEO, Alex Karp, makes very edgy jokes about how he wants to kill the families of antisemites.
I donât personally have very much faith in any speech guarantees provided by the US government. The Biden administration violated the First Amendment by ordering âprivateâ tech companies to censor speech, and the Trump administration has done things much more illegal than that, passing all of these laws against âantisemitism.â Trump arrested and attempted to deport a green card holder for not supporting Israel. He says heâs going to deport anyone who doesnât support Israel, regardless if they have a green card or not. Thus far, no one has been able to explain to me how a green card holderâs constitutional rights vary from those of a US citizen.
There is a lot of legal precedent for this you can look up. The Supreme Court ruled previously that an Australian communist with a green card couldnât be deported for being a communist because a green card holder is protected by the Bill of Rights.
Listen, Iâm the most anti-immigration person of all. If Trump said âweâre stripping all green card holders of their green cards and deporting them all tomorrow,â I would support that completely. But when you start claiming that you are taking specific rights from people who have rights under the US Constitution, youâre creating a very confusing legal situation.
He has also effectively seized federal control of universities in order to prevent students or faculty from criticizing Jews. Heâs attempting to equate protesting against Israel with âmaterial support for terrorism.â Itâs all the exact same âsafe spacesâ and âspeech is violenceâ language that was used by the Democrats in support of BLM and transhumanists, but Trump is taking it much further than Democrats ever did.
Further, the Biden administration was mocked relentlessly for their âDisinformation Governance Board,â a government board designed to monitor supposed âdisinformationâ on the internet, run by Nina Jankowicz. They ended up abolishing the organization after a couple months. Yet âmonitoring disinformation onlineâ is six million times less scary than âmonitoring literally everything you do or say all the time for your entire life,â which is what Trump has contracted Palantir to do.
If you ask any questions about any of this, youâre either called an antisemite, a far-left open borders supporter, or both.
We should be deporting immigrants, but we should be doing so without threatening the freedom of speech or creating AI police state control grids. We should also do so, I think, without creating remote black sites, which really adds a whole other layer to this which I hadnât really thought much about until the announcement of this âAlligator Alcatraz.â
I suppose it is obvious that if youâre going to create a total control grid and monitor everyoneâs speech and behavior, and use AI to modify behavior on a society-wide scale, the social engineering wonât work on everyone so some people are going to have to disappear. And immigrants are so unpopular that the government has a chance to normalize â and get people to celebrate â this idea of people just disappearing and being hauled off to some secret prison. Doing a big fun publicity push with alligators is exactly what I would do if I wanted to normalize the idea of American black sites.
Itâs all looking kinda dark, frankly.
The most frustrating part is just how well the social engineering campaigns already work. Granted, they are running into some issues getting people to go along with the whole antisemitism thing. Even a lot of right-wingers are very uncomfortable with the Trump administrationâs push for these âhate speechâ laws. But with Palantir AI surveillance grids or remote prisons with no due process, if you start asking really any right-winger about it, theyâre going to call you an immigrant lover and start telling you that they donât care if alligators eat the immigrants. If you follow-up with âokay, but canât we just deport them instead of spending hundreds of millions of dollars to try to feed them to alligators?â, they will just get confused.
The answer as to âwhy not just deport them immediately?â is some garbled gibberish about courts. But with the way the Trump administration is steamrolling the complaints of judges about the way immigrants are being handled, the idea that they are really concerned about âasylum claimsâ and an infinite appeals process is not really believable. âWe will feed them to alligators but if they survive they can live in this cage for decades and keep filing asylum appeals.â Further, all of those laws about asylum could just be changed. Trump is ramming the most expensive and unpopular bill in history through Congress, so the idea he canât get rid of these idiotic asylum laws is dumb.
For the record, though I did not read the whole âBig Beautiful Bill,â my AI did, and the only change to asylum law the current version makes is that you have to pay $100 to apply for asylum. The fee, of course, can be waived if a judge says so. It appears very much like the goal here is to create a gigantic federal standing army in the form of ICE, that is able to round up immigrants and keep some fraction of a percentage of them in various cages rather than actually deport anyone back to their home country.
This is at the same time we are normalizing deploying the military onto the streets of American cities. Iâm not pro-riot, and Iâm not against sending the National Guard to deal with riots, but sending in the Marines? Does that really seem like something we want to be normalizing?
Sadly, like with everything else in a democracy, there isnât anything you can do to change anything. But you should be aware that we are really not that far away from Palantir AI identifying you as an antisemite, and a private paramilitary group with no insignias on their gear throwing you in a van and flying you off to some secret prison. The Palantir control grid is really already here, they are in the process of combining all of these databases on you and using the AI to build profiles. So itâs just a matter of when they decide to start using it and for what purposes.
The way the deportation thing is currently being handled, which is by grabbing random people and doing so in a kind of public way (while also not doing any kind of relevant numbers, just to be clear), very much looks to me like it is designed to normalize scenes of people being randomly grabbed off the streets. If/when they start doing it to white Americans, âhey wait, isnât that a white guy?â might go through someoneâs head, but it isnât going to matter. And most people wonât register that it is no longer just brown people who are getting picked up, after theyâve witnessed enough of these scenes.
You donât have to be particularly creative to imagine a situation where ICE becomes Palantirâs NKVD.
I know this might sound a bit far-fetched. But all Iâm doing is the only thing I ever do: Iâm looking at the data, and doing my best to draw conclusions about what it means.
Itâs also probably worth reminding people that if you simply made it a serious felony to hire or rent homes to illegal immigrants, and started putting the people who do that in prison (just normal prison, no need for alligators or any Looney Tunes shit), virtually all of the illegal immigrants would just leave.
It might also be worth reminding people that âillegalâ immigrants have never caused even a fraction of the social, economic, and cultural damage that âlegalâ immigrants cause, and Trump is currently supporting moves to allow basically infinite numbers of âlegalâ immigrants.
It is very reasonable to suspect that maybe things are not exactly as they appear, and that maybe the government and media are not being perfectly frank with us about where all of this is headed.
