        If as Malcolm X the chickens came home to roost none of them would put up the brave face they keep putting up.

          I pray for it. I genuinely pray I get to see these crackers vindicate every last word of Malcolm’s that they haven’t yet already. These crackers are not my countrymen, ain’t a single fuck I give what happens to them. I just hope it’s loud, fiery, and traumatic for them.

      They think they’re prepared or desensitized because every week theres a mass shooting. Some sickening machismo in there. But they have no idea what these other people really go through.

          I will keep reiterating the devastation they’ve bought upon iraq in the 90s cannot be understated. When I listened to the episode on blowback I had no idea that many children were affected.

            Yeah. Radio War Nerd, whenever they discuss famines or AMerican style total war, emphasize that it’s kids who starve first, kids who get sick first, and kids who survive severe malnutrition or illness often suffer serious developmental problems that result in lifelong harms and burdens. Shit’s fucked. What the US and Israel are doing, and what the US did/is doing in Yemen, are calculated to massacre children and permanently injure the survivors.

        10000% agreed. They don’t understand the neverending string of holocausts after holocausts the west inflicts particularly on Muslims, indigenous peoples (and what they back against those in Latin America is even worse than in the north, too- full on death squads), upon Africa, what they have inflicted in living memory (60s, 70s, 80s) and want to return to inflicting on east and southeast and south Asia.

        I must admit, while it would be terrible and things should not go that far (unless it’s MAD, then let the punishment of the heavens spew radioactive shit all over the Great Satan), if only they knew what it’s like. YanKKKeestan and the west will either have to learn empathy or the rest of humanity will inevitably be driven to the point of wiping them out in complete and utter self-defense.

            Pretty much, he’s just saying the quiet part out loud. Any lib with an inkling of historical knowledge (even of the cold war), or with an inkling of geopolitics combined with some meager understanding of the real workings of the modern economy/supply chains (granted, far less common than it should be), or who keeps up with news and doesn’t have the memory of a beanis understands exactly how their bread is buttered even if they won’t admit it to themselves or others.

    and not depend on other people

    Like the Zionists depend on amerikkka?

    This person not only is a rightwing nationalist little whiner, but also is too slavishly pignorant to have awareness of why there is struggle in and about the US specifically over it.

      I look at it as a broken clock moment. I keep telling myself to not forget that those are the vanguard of fascism in this country; but… Goddamn they have precisely one good point about these gladhanding neoliberal compradors. Heartbreaking.

      Honestly it’s pretty common for me, particularly after Gaza (but before since Biden as well). At the very least the out-and-comparatively-““honest”” fascists tend to believe on some level what they do. Libs know and embrace or deny exactly how vile they are, I have infinitely more hatred for them as a result now that they’re all going on their usual high horse about yellow peril (strike 1), Russian “orcs” (strike 2), and then supporting genocide regardless of how much they try to shrug and wash their hands of the matter (strike 3, 4, 5, and onwards)

      If shit were ever to go down with me in it (would ideally gtfo) I would rest… easier anyways, so long as the libs get theirs, what they support and advocate for, in full as well. Legit if I were to vote for anyone out of spite (as I have absolutely nil belief in electoralism) these past few years it’ll be literally anyone other than libs, I’d even support an ““honest”” fascist over them (though I wouldn’t support a fascist or a lib- not that there’s a difference- ever, plain and simple).

      All they need to do is stop the genocide. They won’t do that, we all know they won’t do that. Might veer into some dangerous places saying this but such behavior is real- well, they might be human beings but they sure as hell ain’t the same as the rest of humanity in their actions and I’d stick to that and act accordingly

      Malcolm was right.

      “The white conservatives aren’t friends of the Negro either, but they at least don’t try to hide it. They are like wolves; they show their teeth in a snarl that keeps the Negro always aware of where he stands with them. But the white liberals are foxes, who also show their teeth to the Negro but pretend that they are smiling. The white liberals are more dangerous than the conservatives; they lure the Negro, and as the Negro runs from the growling wolf, he flees into the open jaws of the “smiling” fox.”

      It was my birthday last week and I was out of the country. I was having a shitty day and one of the Harris phone bankers called me. I kept telling them now is absolutely not a good time and they kept talking over me.

      I hate yelling at people over the phone but I was not having it; it’s become so fucking common to try to talk over people now. I hate it. Always like to play victim too when someone doesn’t deal with their shitty behavior either 🙄
