>>2477218Remember to filter mass tor baiters, feds, and trollsNot reporting is bourgeoisViolators will be launched from trebuchet https://www.youtube.com/shorts/TkMfD8f9Vb8This has been bothering me for so long. Someone needs to explain this like Im 5.
Why. Are. The. Palestenians. So. Special? In the link I pasted there's a literal USA-KORPS member in FUCKING uniform talking about how he doesn't support Israel. But he says nothing about invading Iraq, bombing Syria, supporting Saudi-Arabia, toppling Libya as a literal fucking settler colonist and yet this shit makes the rounds and he gets all the up doots in the universe. I sympathize with the Palestinians. But
WHY CANT THE NORMIES APPLY THIS LOGIC TO EVERYTHING ELSE. IT CANT SERIOUSLY BE THE FUCKING HARD!!!!!!!!!!!!! >>24791401)Copmala wasn't even promising obama style ""hope"" ie weak social democracy, plus the Joe Brandon regime was funneling 10 trillion to Israel while throwing non commitments to "peace" at best and actively antagonizing democrats who didn't want it to do give Israel carte blanche at worst.
2)The countries closest to Palestine are dominated by classes who love the status quo.
>>2479143>>2479144>GRINGO babelDisregarded.
>>2479147Fuck Obama. Kamalas wasnt Biden. What are you even about?
>>2479154The internet has made America in particular significantly worse. The 00's were arguably the last time America had "good" culture and I am sure this is not just because it's the decade I grew up in.
Geopolitically it's not even comparable. 00's America was totally uncontested globally, while 2025 America is losing to China in every metric except military spending.
>>2479172Start getting your shit together NOW. Get those documents apostilled, get your passport renewed, line up a job overseas.. whatever you gotta do to dip. America is DONE. Finished. Cooked. We are living in a Dollar Tree dystopia, a third world country with a Gucci belt.
At this point, other countries need to start issuing Americans refugee status.
Don’t be that clown trying to #Resist from inside the circus tent while the whole damn thing is on fire. That’s not brave, that’s delusional.
Leave, regroup, and watch this mess implode from a distance. You’ll be more useful safe, sane, and sipping espresso in Portugal than spiraling on Twitter in a country that clearly doesn’t care if you live or die.
>>2479149 >>2479147 >>2479145 >>2479144 >>2479143THe actual issue is even if we care about what happens to palestineans we dont have one iota of the capacity to do anything about it until we have organized masses ready to actively resist. In order to get them to actively resist they'll need to be in cohesive, directed groups they implicitly trust. To get the implicit trust and cohesion the groups will need to offer them something first, then get things from them.
The issue is the activist groups have routinely failed to rouse people from "here's a nice thing for you" to elevating acts of solidarity. In earlier times this was implicitly solved by entering into labor unions who already had the self-interest element, but that's gone out the window, and what looked like the beginning of a union resurgence over the Biden years just went fucking nowhere.
>>2479184I don't just mean Roseanne, I mean all the people in the random screenshots people post here. What's the point?
>>2479187I don't even know where I'd go even if I could leave.
>>2479192No idea but every transgender person should be doing this
>>2479187 and getting the fuck out ASAP.
Sell all unneeded possessions/game consoles/bullshit/etc you don't need on ebay or facebook market. Stop eating expensive food. No more doordash or treaterite bullshit. Save every penny. Have hard cash. Get your papers in order. Stop caring if it has the right markers on them or not, etc.
You need to be ready to get the fuck out of dodge, fast. It could happen tomorrow, it could happen in a year. But it's coming.
>>2479217The economy was even more fucked in weimar/nazi germany. Some people scraped by and got out. This is the mindset you need to operate on. Even having 300 bucks saved over a couple of months instead of 0 is a gamechanger.
You should try to get a passport and have enough for the shittiest plane ticket overseas to SA or Europe.
>>2479221Blergh, I guess if your standard is living like a rat in a foreign country and you're okay with that. Though it's already been said, there's nowhere that capitalism and the now rising reaction haven't reached, you may as well just stay home and fight back. Though maybe move to a more left friendly state like NY, since it has the DSA.
>B-but they're not REAL com-Shut the fuck up
>>2479237>>2479246much like the historical examples of popular fronts I could see some libs joining in at the last minute once it becomes clear to them the fash are gonna kill them too. imho popular fronts in general are more of a testament to how aggressive and depraved fascism,imperialism and slavery to the point of self-sabotage are than anything else.
It's like
>>2479244 talking about the nazis starting a multifront war and somehow managing to get the old capitalist empire,the rising capitalist empire and only socialist power on the same fucking side against them. Japan managed to get OSS officers,communists and nationalists to cooperate, Israel has communists and islamists working together, abolitionists in the american civil war included communists and devout christians,everyone vs. the francoists in spain,everyone vs. the salafis in syria etc.
>>2479243>>2479244the situation was more complicated than the Nazis being either competent or incompetent. they were run by a bunch of sociopathic opportunist failsons, but there were plenty of people in the SA and the high-ranking officers in the military who were very good at killing people because they were veterans of the worst war in history (prior to WWII). Hitler also understood the importance of mass organizing (a tactic that was inspired by the German Left) and in Nazi Germany there were constantly gigantic rallies and demonstrations to get people all worked up into a nationalistic frenzy. they also undertook various projects that for a time revitalized the German economy. Germany also just so happened to have built up powerful manufacturing industries and had a lot of really intelligent scientists, though none of that was because of the Nazis; they just were lucky that Germany was a nation that had gotten fucked over by WWI after lagging behind the rest of Europe in the 19th century imperial age despite working really hard to try to catch up after the unification.
but the real problem with the Nazis as far as their Party structure goes is that the Führer doctrine was fucking retarded, and it was why they lost the war. if Hitler wasn't an egotistical tweaker faggot he would have just let his generals do their thing and they would have easily taken out most of Britain's fighting forces at Dunkirk along with France and probably won the war, but Hitler threw a hissy fit about the Wehrmacht acting without being under his direct orders and made them stop marching, which is what gave the British time to regroup and escape. the whole idea of having one guy in charge of everything is unsurprisingly really fucking stupid.
the US on the other hand was already a decaying empire before Trump's first term, and has long since passed through its period of having anything going for it to make up for being run by reactionary opportunists. if you want to see the era where the US was a terrifyingly competent fascist state, you're looking for basically everything from 1945-2008. we're not only solidly in the period of decline but also don't have people in charge who have any plan and are high off their own Reaganite propaganda supply, with the only difference being that the Trump admin is the result of the empire reaping what it has sown.
>>2479270aside from JD Vance being pretty universally hated and Trump currently being the lynchpin holding together the current far right coalition of Silicon Valley and Heritage Foundation types because he's a charismatic figurehead (or was, but even that's fading), I think a lot of people who don't know anything about how much of a dysfunctional shitshow the tech industry is.
>>2479276you're probably right but I'm saying this for the benefit of other transes on leftypol because I'm fucking tired of hearing this shit.
>>2479278>I think a lot of people who don't know anything about how much of a dysfunctional shitshow the tech industry isI forgot to finish that thought lel – these sorts of people overestimate the Silicon Valley types because they've bought into the meritocratic propaganda that the tech industry perpetuates about itself, and it's all a bunch of hot air. the entire industry is a fucking joke and we're already starting to see cracks starting to show. literally every single centralized service that the tech industry has consolidated most users onto are bug-riddled garbage because they're all built on the worst technologies imaginable, and that was before the tech industry decided to accelerate the process by going all-in on the AI bubble.
I predict within two years that the AI bubble is going to pop and we're going to see an apocalyptic crash not just for the tech industry but the US economy as a whole, and it's going to be really fucking funny.
>>2479214>No idea but every transgender person should be doing this >>2479187 and getting the fuck out ASAP.I second that.
>>2479218>And where could they go exactly? Not my problem, anywhere but here.
>>2479294not getting killed for nothing? that's all you guys seem to want
>>2479293if you want to die, then so be it
>>2479295you escape america now, to fight later
>>2479291Most people and especially trans people can't even afford to move out of the USA, much less afford the massive fees to get rid of their American Citizenship. Most people in the USA don't even have a passport. It's simply not a solution for most trans people like
>>2479274 said:
>unless China starts offering asylum to trans people like the USSR did for Jews, the rest of my point still stands. you can't emigrate to any developed country from the US unless you're a middle class professional of some sort who has either capital or a skill and education to offer to the country you're trying to emigrate to. I've looked into this shit already, it's not a solution for most trans people in the US and I'm tired of hearing it from cissies. and even if I individually were able to get the money together, even if I were able to line up getting a job in another country, what am I supposed to do, leave behind everyone I care about with the assumption that they're all gonna get sent to the camps? fuck that. I'm gonna stand my fucking ground and not run like a middle class bitch. >>2479306>Fascism is when some guy posts mean things on twitterlol.
But anyways you retarded faggot, Spain has one of the most active and popular fascist movements anywhere.
https://fortune.com/2025/09/12/ray-dalio-ai-winners-losers-jobs-redistribution-policy/
>Legendary investor Ray Dalio, founder of Bridgewater Associates, has issued a stark warning regarding the future impact of artificial intelligence (AI) and humanoid robots, predicting a dramatic increase in wealth inequality that will necessitate a new “redistribution policy”. Dalio articulated his concerns, suggesting that these advanced technologies are poised to benefit the top 1% to 10% of the population significantly more than everyone else, potentially leading to profound societal challenges.
>He predicted “a limited number of winners and a bunch of losers,” with the likely result being much greater polarity. With the top 1% to 10% “benefiting a lot,” he foresees that being a dividing force. He described the current business climate on AI and robotics as a “crazy boom,” but the question that’s really on his mind is: why would you need even a highly skilled professional if there’s a “humanoid robot that is smarter than all of us and has a PhD and everything.” Perhaps surprisingly, the founder of the biggest hedge fund in history suggested that redistribution will be sorely needed.
>“There certainly needs to be a redistribution policy,” Dalio told host Steven Bartlett, without directly mentioning universal basic income. He clarified that this will have to more than “just a redistribution of money policy because uselessness and money may not be a great combination.” In other words, if you redistribute money but don’t think about how to put people to work, that could have negative effects in a world of autonomous agents. The ultimate takeaway, Dalio said, is “that has to be figured out, and the question is whether we’re too fragmented to figure that out.” >>2479320whoops.
anyway, did you crash it yet?
>>2479344>https://www.euractiv.com/news/rise-of-spanish-far-right-supported-by-new-poll/>As more and more governments swing right in Europe, while others see similar surgery in right and far-right parties, Spain appears to be following suit.
>According to a poll by 40dB for El País and radio station cadena SER, published on Tuesday, the right and the far right, namely Partido Popular, Vox and SALF, are stronger than the left, currently represented by the PSOE, its ally in the government Sumar, and other smaller progressive parties, including Podemos.
>Partido Popular is, for the first time, at the same percentage as in the 2023 elections: 33%, although Vox, currently the third force in the Spanish parliament, has seen an increase in its vote estimates for three consecutive months. >>2479353You are the faggot who is mad because I pointed out you are retarded for saying:
>>2479303>Is there any country in Europe that isn't becoming fascist?>>2479300>Spain, maybe?They have one of the most ascendant LITERALLY FASCIST parties anywhere in the world.
>>2479350Observe the trends you retard.
Why the fuck are you guys so concerned with denying fascism in Spain?
>>2479355And before you tards start debating something else not said, I am not saying I believe Vox will come to power or some shit soon. It's just hilarious you're like:
>Is there anywhere Fascism isn't rising?<Uhhhh Spain?Like WTF?
>>2479495>but how deluded do the viewers have to be to feel justified in misdirected anger that they forget they're supposed to be Christian.The bible says a lot of shit. Even if your throw out everything but the Jesus quotes it's inconsistent, but Jesus said not one letter of the law will pass away, so you can't scrap anything in the OT or Revelations or anything.
Basically to quote Jesus himself:
>I came not to bring peace but a sword.When Jesus comes back, he is the one that opens the gates of hell and then takes revenge on the Earth for killing him. This is what it actually says in the fucking bible.
>>2479580>keep saying this: if you're an american then it doesn't matter if you're piss poor, you can migrate to any country in latam and be worshipped as if you were a mesopotamic god that can make the rain come and turn dust to gold.Lol speaking as an Ecuadorian, what you're saying might've been true in the 80's but that is no longer the case. First, the purchasing power of the dollar has vastly decreased compared to then, so whatever small savings you scrunge up will not go as far as you hope down here. Second, the gringo luster isn't what it used to be either. You won't get people automatically fellating you just because you speak English. Truthfully, if you're socially awkward transgender person you're going to be miserable down here.
I'm not saying this to be an asshole to our trans comrades who may be looking for other places to live, just keep things realistic.
>>2479654speaking as one they think that being right wing means their skin isnt brown. If they werent born in the US and "fled communist regimes" instead theyre literally just imported fash.
Ironically this is what republicans accuse the dems of doing.
>>2479495>Violence is the starting point for much of public discourse and it is by design.the only reason anyone cares about Charlie Kirk is bourgeois billionaire owners controlled him as a puppet, and so an attack against them is like an attack against Uline or Home Depot or whatever. Its really that simple
>>2479504>When Jesus comes back, he is the one that opens the gates of hell and then takes revenge on the Earth for killing him. This is what it actually says in the fucking bible.What is the "antichrist"? After his lynching, Jesus said that you could find him washing the feet of the homeless people in Jerusalem…but these satanic finance imperialists have a routine of creating Palestinian amputees who don't have legs! So Jesus will simply shrug and kill every soy liberal degenerate who has ever watched a Contrapoints video, like all you socialist Zohran fanboys
>>2479696I think a lot of people and companies are getting severe MIGA fatigue from the mass doxxing that's happening. They overplayed their hands and trying to demand people being fired not for celebrating a death, but merely refusing to publicly mourn one is going to radicalize a lot of people to the left
But you won't see it expressed in the open. It's the kind of change that happens deep in people's heart and boils under the lid.
>>2479154Yeah. There was no doomscrolling, there was still a feasible chance to preserve the proletarian class, everyone was still working in manufacturing instead of Walmart/Amazon, apps hadn't destroyed all irl spaces yet, people went out a lot more and could afford to do so, rents took up a much smaller portion of net income. Physically there were just fewer people, fewer subdivisions, less land dedicated to real estate developments, small towns had more people and vibrancy. Like, as someone born in the 90s I've never seen anything improve in my entire life, every single day is objectively worse than the one before, duh 20 years ago was better, 20 days ago was better than now, 20 minutes ago was better than now, please kill us God, kill us all now I'm begging you
https://archive.ph/R18NeAlright well, leftypol. Today we have this. Legislation giving Groypio the power to revoke passports for simply criticizing israel.
>"Mast’s new bill claims to target a narrow set of people. One>section grants the secretary of state the power to revoke or >refuse to issue passports for people who have been convicted >— or merely charged — of material support for terrorism. >(Mast’s office did not respond to a request for comment.)"What does leftypol think this means going forward? Will it actually pass? Will it be used en masse? Or will it be used selectively against only Adam Friedland specifically?
Thoughts?
>>2479807Both of those groups want to see total trans genocide though. The GOP is fixating on trans instead of the entire LGBT community precisely because there's a large subsection of LGB's that don't like the T's and will allow the right-wing to ease into full LGBT extermination if it means starting with the transhumanists.
Yet another failure of intersectional liberalism tbh.
>>2479802hopefully, I remember one of them talking about how they could random radlibby socdems to agree to corporatism
>>2479805I assumed the intense retardation was why we had ᴉuᴉlossnW fanboys come on in every once in while until they made there own board
>>2479806I suppose I should clarify that these posters are only look "intelligent" due to actually being able to read and write as opposed to just spamming increasingly grotesque wojacks. iirc they literally went on to found the /fash/ board so they could go circlejerk about perennialism and Mediterranean fascists w/o constant BBC porn spam or something to that affect.
>>2479817yeah, you are probably right. I've yet to see a diehard transgender lib becoming a diehard maga supporter, but could happen, and that's because (many) minorities (extremist individuals,
not a broad generalization) are more and more cherishing more and more extremist policies to protect their interests, instead of their groups. like latinos, blacks, indigenous peoples.
it's sad they opt for the worst outcome, instead of really fighting back.
best of luck to real transgenders activists.
>>2479840brianna wu is unfortunately uhhh challenged… in her brain. She's a minor lulcow but ultimately, depressingly, not bright and will never snap out of whatever is wrong with her.
She doesn't deserve to be a professional opinion-haver. She doesn't belong in any organizing space, really. The best thing she could do for the working class would be to get a normal job somewhere and shut up like the rest of us.
>>2479827Amerifats have goldfish tier attention spans
Feels like a lot of them forgot the subway girl too
This is a big reason why I don't think a second civil war is possible anymore. One week in and they'd all quit, either that or one too many shartmarts or McDicks burn down
>>2479869people post stupid crap on that website all the time
https://boards.4chan.org/pol/thread/515993010here is someone claiming Tyler Robinson's gf is a deamond
>>2479874I haven't been there in SO long but have since the Kirk thing. And man, that place is hilarious.
There was one thread yesterday presenting a logic puzzle and stating that there would be no republican party if this was the entrance exam.
They argued for hours over the answer
>>2479877I have this one anon saying shit like "I totally got 50 of your people fired" and "I can't wait to put you in death camps you guys are so scared :)". He hasn't replied since I told him the closest they got to civil war was jan 6 and all that came out of that was one of their own getting shot lol. They're so fired up about Kirk you can say anything and they'll blow a gasket. Kirk getting domed really was an existential threat to them.
>>2479881almost all posters except for the really dumb ones are trolls/bots/shills these days, that's part of the reason they're so easy to bait.
>>2479853>Kash Patel and Pam Bondi are literal retardsI find it simultaneously funny and depressing that one of greatest boons to the USian people this century has been our reactionaries being so fucking retarded and incompetent culture war obsessed short attention span having idealists that they can't even pull half the shit there predecessors could. Dick Cheney,Henry Kissinger and Allen Dulles are actually kinda scary compared to what we got now.
Atp I feel like any big crackdown or genocide like event where you seeing thousands of casualities won't be some organized thing with camps or the military shooting at protesters like everyone always hypes up but more similar to the Rwandan genocide where chud militias are just roaming around the country butchering random civilians while the central government looks the other way and/or actively encourages it
>>2479921she's pretty ugly
zionism stains your soul and body
>>2479815Hm, this site doesn't seem biased at all!
Aside from obvious bias, the last line about how Cons don't seem to be envisioning that all these powers their giving the executive branch could eventually be used against them is basically what I think whenever I see a headline like this.
>>2479919>i'm not american but i've never seen the US right wing so pathologically obsessed with someone being or not being trans, or having ties to someone who is. it's like a mass psychosis reminiscent of the 80s satanic panic or the 2000s muslim scareIt's the Evangelicals.
They really need a way to exonerate this guy and blame their enemies to cope with a young white Christian kid killing one of their own in such a public way. He needs to have been warped by wokeism or seduced by the Slaanesh-worshipping transgender demons. I wasn't fully aware of this, but listening to Radio War Nerd last night, Mark Ames made the point that Kirk was a really big deal in the Evangelical scene. Or what used to be more commonly referred to as the Religious Right or "Moral Majority" (as they liked to refer to themselves). Kirk was a clean-cut church kid who also grew up in an Evangelical family, and TPUSA had been more and more involved in organizing "pastor's summit" conferences, and Evangelicals seeing in him as some kind of future president. Kind of like a young Falwell.
<A thousand Christian nationalist organizations descend upon you!<Our Charlie Kirks will blot out the sun! >>2479955Yeah, pretty sure Israel got this way because after the 2010 decision to allow unlimited donations to PACs Israel just donated some of it's foreign aid to PACs to get more foreign aid which they then put in PACs again, etc, etc. Until we got to the point now where like most of our politicians get most of their money from Israel.
They discovered a loophole in the American system, and have been exploiting it. That's it, nothing special to it.
>>2479960Egypt is actually a massive recipient of American military aid. The Red Sea is pretty secure bro.
>>2479962Posting this image will trigger a lot of dumbasses but America genuinely cannot move forward without getting Israel out of our politics first.
>>2479971Israel is a military base of the US, it is deep connected to the US and even more than a bumfuck southern evanzoglical shithole of texas or arkansas.
america sends millions to israel just like they spend to mantain basic government infraesctuture or services, denying this is denying the existance of american imperialism, and reactionary exceptionalism, you are a enemy of the working class
>>2479972Actually true I think the Israel-America alliance wouldn't be so strong if it wasn't creating "jobs" for thousands of weapons factories in the US full of "middle class" war merchants building bombs to kill brown people to put their kids through college.
It's something that I have a lot of trouble coming to terms with without going full 3rd worldist: America's industry as it currently exists is literally destroying the planet and the "middle class" are direct beneficiaries of global genocide. Advocating to improve conditions for Americans without also dealing with all the harm those Americans do globally just seems irresponsible.
>>2479964>>2479962>America genuinely cannot move forward without getting Israel out of our politics firstI completely agree with this, and that graphic is the best way to simplify it ALL down.
And it's so funny because like… "the jews control us" rightoid meme brainworm but it really is hilarious because well… ISRAEL controls us (sort of) and then you get into the whole "israel doesn't actually represent jewish people as a whole, it's actually very controversial yada yada"
And how like, Fiveish (picrel) is the most antisemitic thing you could possibly imagine and it was made by orthodox jews and cars4kids type grift. There really is a certain absurd humor to the shit that Israelis get away with because of their culture of impunity and sense of invincibility.
>>2479981>America is a specially evil nationyes
>No actually Israel is a specially evil nationnot mutually exclusionary events. so, yes.
>REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE THE BOURGEOISIE IS GLOBAL, REVISIONISTUS is the baddie nation, so it needs spanking. as simple as.
>>2479800Primo de Rivera is really not "theory," at least not "heavy theory." Probably closer to what Stalin wrote, maybe.
Gentile, on the other hand, is slightly more interesting, mainly because of the Italian philosophical context filled with voluntarism and hegelianism: the same context that produce Gramsci
>>2479974Yeah if you don't have experience around American Evangelicals, hoo man… their capacity for hypocrisy is unlimited. But I think Kirk really being their golden boy is really what has got them triggered. There has always been young right-wing men, but Kirk was the type who the older Kenneth Copeland-type Evangelicals love to see. He looked like a former Nickelodeon child actor. They like that. Then there's the whole Christian martyr thing to contend with.
>>2479980I think one thing that Marxism provides is to emphasize the role of PRODUCTION. There's exchange (money changing hands) but I mean the logic of production. Whenever the U.S. government approves another 2,000 joint-directed attack munitions to Israel, that fires up factories which make those weapons.
It's also a lot of little things people don't pay attention to. Like some sensor that goes in a helicopter, or an avionics system, or gauges, or a heads-up display. Look up an arms manufacturer like Kratos and see where they have offices, there will be one in Israel too. Then the Israeli firms have offices in the U.S., and Israel figured out the meta here to design or manufacture subsystems and components that go into many of those weapons. Obviously there's missile defense where Israel functions as a live-fire testing laboratory. People also talk about AIPAC and I think it's important, but even that pales in comparison to the amount of money the defense industry spends in lobbying Congress.
And I think the Israeli system is less bureaucratic than the U.S. MIC. It takes longer for the U.S. to design / experiment / field / test (on human beings) these weapons while the Israelis are faster, and that's useful. Saudi Arabia has oil but it has been at the level of a rentier-type economy for a long time. MBS is trying to level up in the game, but Israel has a complex economy and it's also a highly miltarized one. They invested a lot on it early on, and also carved out a niche selling Western-style weapons to all kinds of crazy governments during the Cold War at a lower price point because labor costs in Israel were cheaper.
>>2479982>And how like, Fiveish (picrel) is the most antisemitic thing you could possibly imagine and it was made by orthodox jews and cars4kids type grift. There really is a certain absurd humor to the shit that Israelis get away with because of their culture of impunity and sense of invincibility.>>2480028>I would argue Fiveish is more of an American thing then an Israeli thing.The money thing seems Jewish maybe I'm less scandalized by that, as it also comes across as "Eastern European" or like a Greek wedding thing to me. Making it rain. Also Roma (gypsies), and the Roma historically had a similar social role to Jews in Europe as a mobile, trade-oriented minority. It's like worshipping Mercury / Hermes from ancient Greece and Rome.
The Fiveish thing is absurd but I'm with Karl Marx that the general spirit of the Jews as a having a mercantile, money-oriented rationality has (in a sense) become the general spirit of modern society. What was once particular *to* Jews (and a few other minorities) has diffused across modern society or embedded itself into its fabric so the Jews have lost some of their distinctiveness. Like if you've ever trade crypto or speculated on Polymarket (ahem)
>>2480082Yeah I saw that. I was wondering exactly how that will play out. Probably not good, but also probably a nasty lawsuit and actual defamation involved.
I think anyone with any sense shouldn't touch that website, and no one should be openly posting their assassination opinions online with their face and name lmao.
This is the most retarded hill to die on I think I've ever seen>>2480082
>>2480084The word
insane at this point is wildly reductive.
>>2480090There was that joke about him being the Zodiac killer and at one point he even posted a fake logo about that on his twitter. Fun thing is he has provoked a vastly larger number of deaths than the OG Zodiac killer, yet popular culture still seems to look at "traditional" serial killers as more scary and dangerous than the actual mass murderers that are politicians.
>>2480137There's a fundamental difference: Soviet infrastructures were made to literally survive the apocalypse, Burger crap is the cheapest shit they could get away with while building it.

>but what if they crackdown even more lolthey already did. r/thedeprogram and other leftoid communities got banned for being insufficiently sad about charlie kuckkk. and need we even forget that entire "lol we're blacking out our subreddits in protestation of corrupt admins" was conveniently never reversed and now a lot of subs have their threads permanently inaccessible, including a lot if info from the 2010s that is now lost permanently.
>>2480178>What is the best way to down an AMeriKKKKKaan jet or helicopter? With advanced AA missiles
>Can you shoot an F35 down with small arms? IIf it is going low and slow enough to hit.
>>2480194eternal fizzle.
this is my fizzle-sizzle theory of the lifetime of empires. at their founding all states that eventually become empires sizzle every day after that is a continuous fizzle until it dies out.

Musk = Crassus
Zuck = Caesar
>>2480205More Americans have been dying in our troubles in a single week then those fag ass micks and bongs did in three decades lmao.
>We could have a situation as bad as the minor fighting that went on in Ireland!I wish dude, we could use the break already.
>>2480148>Desu I'm not convinced it isn't a sort of honeypot to catch domestic terrorists. "Ohh our power grid is so fragile, it would be a shame and incredibly disruptive if someone were to bomb these very vulnerable power stations…" I'm sure it was true at some point, but there's no way the US got that report and said "ok anyways lole"or maybe instead of killing unimportant bobbleheads like charlie kuck it would be fantastic if the actual fixed infrastructure used to manufacture the weapons of genocide were interfered with
>shut up felixnot felix I just hate genocide thanks
>>2480201strong men create sizzle times

>>2480244"the greatest trvkes are posted in jest"
-zizek, probably
>>2480244Yeah, well there are always people here unironically fear mongering that they are about to round us up and throw us in the FEMA camps. Or maybe a spontaneous uprising will start, and we will never have to go to work tommorow because we will be surviving
the zombie apocalypse The Second American Civil War. Everyone's mind has been rotted by their escapist fantasy slop. Anything but face the real world we live in.
>>2480251people doing mutual aid/war communism to help the war effort or whatever so you could be doing some job making food for soldiers instead of your day job, you'll be very impoverished though
we could be doing this now if you hate daily life so much
>>2480264double lol
liberals are beyond retarded
>>2480312Holy fuck. It's Columbine all over again with this bullshit and RFK Jr blaming video games for mass shootings, ain't it?
This must've been what it felt like to be alive at that time and seeing the media endlessly blame DOOM, Natural Born Killers, Marilyn Manson, etc… for that shooting. All while you know damn well that none of the artists or pieces of media they're blaming had anything to do with it besides the shooters liking them, and that you sure as hell haven't thought of killing people IRL because of any of those artists or pieces of media.
