07/30/2014: Another massacre in Gaza, this time in the middle of a SUPER MARKET. Damn, where was Hamas firing from? Behind the produce isle? Bullshit. Shame on you and your excuses, Israel.

Absolutely disgraceful. These are the monsters the world is trying to protect? This is proof that these attacks are not directed towards “Hamas,” but on innocent civilians. This is GENOCIDE. Open your eyes.

“Israeli intelligence is also said to have known that the boys were dead shortly after they disappeared, but to have maintained public optimism about their safe return to beef up support from the Jewish diaspora.”

From day 1, they had no evidence whatsoever that Hamas was responsible for the kidnapping and killing of Gilad Shaar, Naftali Frenkel, and Eyal Yifrach yet the Israeli prime minister remained persistent. It was just an excuse to attack and oppress the people of Palestine. Just like every other bullshit story fed through the media… To get the majority of people to sympathize and side with the aggressors rather than those being opressed.

Open your eyes. Question EVERYTHING. And don’t be a fool nor justify a corrupt group of people.

At what point does Republican rhetoric finally become intolerable? There seems to be no bottom.

“… “I’m taking action because I feel desperate,” said U.S. climate scientist Peter Kalmus, who along with several others locked himself to the front door of a JPMorgan Chase building in Los Angeles. A recent report found that the financial giant is the biggest private funder of oil and gas initiatives in the world.

“It’s the 11th hour in terms of Earth breakdown, and I feel terrified for my kids, and terrified for humanity,” Kalmus continued. “World leaders are still expanding the fossil fuel industry as fast as they can, but this is insane. The science clearly indicates that everything we hold dear is at risk, including even civilization itself and the wonderful, beautiful, cosmically precious life on this planet. I actually don’t get how any scientist who understands this could possibly stay on the sidelines at this point.” …”

Homo Sapiens will suffer a die-back in the next thirty years. Make your plans around that central event.

Putin determined to continue the war, you have to wonder how things might have turned out if he’d focused exclusively on the east from the start instead of making a dramatic and ultimately disastrous bid for Kiev that convinced the world he wanted WWIII.

Kiev was a diversionary attack to keep Ukraine from concentrating in the Donbas. Russia’s failure was not that they couldn’t take Kiev, it was that they couldn’t take Mariupol

surely this “diversionary attack” was enormously costly, drove global support for sanctions, and also prevented Russia from concentrating in Donbas, it makes no sense to say that they weren’t seriously trying to capture the city, a diversion doesn’t grind on for weeks.

can’t believe the Human Pet Guy called for the restoration of the French monarchy in my mentions, leading me to discover he follows me on Twitter and almost certainly for fetishistic reasons (his following list was full of trans and asian porn accounts and also elon musk)

I don’t think you are being entirely fair here.

For one thing, I follow a LOT of accounts on twitter, accounts operated by a variety of persons, representing many haplogroups and ethnolinguistic subdivisions of mankind. Yes, some of them have ancestry tracing to the orient, some of them have ancestry tracing to the Americas, or the South, or Europa, or other places.

Also, your assumption that I could not have followed you for your thoughts is unreasonable. One can respect a person’s thoughts without always agreeing with them.

As to the topic at hand, it seems that your views of Monarchism are biased. You claim that the actions of Robespierre were not so that the French electorate would have to choose beteeen two imperfect candidates… but that’s exactly what his deeds, and the deeds of other Jacobins, led to!

The Ancien Regime in France lasted for a millennia and a half! It was stable, succesful, and relatively internally peaceful. However, in less than 200 years, France went through six separate republics (the Vichy Republic counts)! That’s hardly a good record! Monarchism was FAR better for France than Republicanism was!

I’d argue that your own writings and videos indicate that you secretly do agree with me. Think about it: you’ve discussed the Chinese Emperors in detail, but China’s various elected officials don’t seem to arouse your interest! You didn’t write a novel about Jiang Zemin possessing a teenager, or one about Tsai Ing-Wen piloting a gigantic combat machine.

This is the same as in my country! The stories of Arthur Pendragon and Henry V have inspired people for generations, but nobody wants to read about John Major or Theresa May pulling a sword out of a stone.

Why do you acknowledge the superiority of monarchism in your fiction, then condemn it politically?

“haplogroups”????

The Ancien Regime lasted for “a millennia and a half”?????

“stable, successful, and relatively internally peaceful”??????????

YOU’RE COUNTING THE NAZI-INSTALLED VICHY REPUBLIC AS A REPUBLIC???????????

YOU THINK JIANG ZEMIN WAS ELECTED?????????????????

YOU THINK I THINK MONARCHISM IS SUPERIOR WHEN THE WHOLE REASON I TALK ABOUT THEM IS HOW UTTERLY MESSY THEY ARE????????????????

GET OUT OF MY HOUSE

This has got to be, like, master-level trolling on human pet guy’s part. (If I’m wrong, Please don’t correct me. I’d prefer to live in this other world thank you)

Human Pet Guy is like the gift that keeps on giving except you want it to stop, please, for the love of all that is good stop and go away.

Watch: Forget the pundits. This is what kids saw — and drew — when they watched the DNC.

Do you ever just stop and think about how the president called the leader of a dictatorship that has been actively threatening us with nuclear war “Rocket Man”

Cuz I do.

Honestly he probably forgot Kin Jung Un’s name

Do you ever just stop and think about how the president called the leader of a dictatorship that has been actively threatening us with nuclear war “Rocket Man”

Cuz I do.

Sen. Warner introduced a resolution condemning Nazis and white supremacy and it passed the Senate unanimously…

it also passed the House. All Trumo has to do is sign…

by the way twitter, who masturbated over banning trump for weeks, just banned tonnes of Indian twitter accounts that were criticising the BJP government and posting information about the farmers protest, including major independent news organisations which are honestly the only sources of unbiased reporting in this country

so yeah.

and they’re not even subtle about why. amazing.

Omfg do u know any ways to help them get their accounts back or to spread the word more??

Start by reading about the protests and the bills.

Some of them are back - last I checked The Caravan India is back.

Report any accounts talking about a “repeat 1984″ - it’s a genocide threat. Two major events during the 1980′s-1990′s (Operation Bluestar & the Oct-Nov pogroms) happened in 1984.

Demand the release of Nodeep Kaur, Mandeep Punia, and any other detained journalists & activists.

Nodeep Kaur is a Dalit Sikh activist who was detained by Haryana police on Jan. 12th, 2021. Her family has confirmed she has been tortured and sexually assaulted in jail.

It’s a bit sad when I consider that one of the kindest things humanity could do for the earth

It’s a bit sad when I consider that one of the kindest things humanity could do for the earth and all the things existing on earth, would be to develop virtual reality to the point that humans no long need to act upon and harm the earth to achieve all of the freedoms, experiences and luxuries we so desperately seek. I picture the Matrix, but instead of the outerworld being dreadfully decayed and infested with mechanical design, it is green and flourishing with life. 

Question is, how many resources would be required to devise of , build and power such a matrix? Think it could be possible and sustainable?
