This isn’t a sign of the peace-loving American electorate, this is a sign of how the war will be marketed. The framing of the last bullet could be and was applied to the war in Iraq.

Cw - lots of footage of victims in that link
I’ve always thought of Rogan as a more empty headed and credulous libertarian type rather than a nazi. He enables a lot of fascists via platform though
this takes me more cumulative hours every week than I would like to admit
As the news thread is bigger, is there a way that we can make your very important and valuable contribution more prominent? Not enough people are scrolling past 100 comments to see your links. When the threads were 300-800 comments it was more manageable to have discussion, but as the thread moves faster and is more of a chat room, it’s a shame that your post gets pushed down so quickly.
Mkb while great is not a military analyst. Breathing new life into democracy vs autocracy doesn’t breathe new life into ammo warehouses.
Knowing that that photo was taken from the bottom of a ditch makes the resemblance between the Chinese guy and the disappointed Pakistani cricket fan uncanny.
Pretty grim stuff in the most recent johnhelmer.org article. Chinese and Russian vessels in the area
I don’t like his page’s format so I’m linking nakedcapitalism but it’s also available on his site
Well that’s probably better for Argentina but it’s certainly less funny
Did this guy win? I don’t know his name
yeah likewise, I had heard the song a million times but hadn’t ever seen that video. it’s fucking wild that it’s 20 years old
actually I like this version better because in includes bill hicks and the ‘your security, your sobriety, your innocence, your society’ line
I referenced we want your soul here a few days ago, looked up the song and realized I had never seen its bangin video, also by adam freeland
The stoic serious hero that has gone “Wahoo” for 30 years
The stoic serious hero that fought egg launching birds and threw carrots at bad guys in Mario 2 and had not one but two cute racoon costumes in Mario 3
"but the tanuki is an integral part of Japanese samurai warrior sun Tzu culture and because I played these games I too have a connection to that mythological warrior ethos, however tenuous nooooo my heckin’ tenuous connection to what I perceive as a more masculine culture nooooo
Surgery and medical events are difficult and traumatic even when it’s routine and normal. It’s good to be there to wave the flag for your partner. Go visit your friends and family when they’re in the hospital - they will be happy to see you.
Can confirm that the parental expectations for men are very low. Verbally and in the media/culture the expectations are higher but for real life boots on the ground parenting one gets lauded for doing not very much at all
The Fleet tacticians had been positively cruel about this dinosaur of a ship. A vanity piece, they called it, an Idiot Aboard! sign hung round the neck of the enemy fleet. Every space-faring species that built warcraft quickly found out one way or another – often the hard way – that big ships just didn’t work except as a hideously expensive way of impressing the more credulous type of native. Flexibility, manoeuvrability, low unit risk-cost, distributed inherent damage resistance, fully parsed battle-space side-blind denotation control grammar . . . these and other even more arcane concepts were what really mattered in modern space warfare, apparently, and a Really Big Ship just didn’t sit too comfortably with any of them.

That’s very charitable. “millions dead in Tehran after nuclear blast”
The Iron Wall, an essay from influential revisionist Zionist jabotinsky in 1923, just shy of 100 years ago to the day. It is nakedly, unabashedly colonialist and its influence can clearly be seen in the Netanyahu regime.

Every native population in the world resists colonists as long as it has the slightest hope of being able to rid itself of the danger of being colonised.
That is what the Arabs in Palestine are doing, and what they will persist in doing as long as there remains a solitary spark of hope that they will be able to prevent the transformation of “Palestine” into the “Land of Israel.”
Consider reading your ethnonationalist veggies instead of doomscrolling
they have nothing to gain from rushing in on the ground. they were caught completely napping and mobilizing the amount of troops required to truly go in on the ground takes time.
We’re practically famous!
