Nasrallah just started to give his speech about 10 minutes ago.

Hillary Clinton Suggests Posting Russian Propaganda Should Be A Crime

“I think it’s important to indict the Russians, just as Muller indicted a lot of Russians who were engaged in direct election interference and boosting Trump back in 2016,” Clinton said, referring to 2018 indictments against Russian individuals and companies accused of election tampering to boost support for Trump in the 2016 election.

“But I also think there are Americans who are engaged in this kind of propaganda. And whether they should be civilly or even in some cases criminally charged is something that would be a better deterrence, because the Russians are unlikely, except in a very few cases, to ever stand trial in the United States.”

They really want to make saying “we should stop propping up Ukraine and pursue a peaceful end to the conflict” a crime, along with pretty much anything that challenges US hegemony, don’t they?

I like to pretend Robert Kurvitz or Helen Hindpere is secretly behind that account and they like to check things out here from time to time.

In honor of today’s doomer discourse, I present you all with this absolute gem of a comment from comrade @DiscoPosting@hexbear.net in one of the news megas in the days after Oct 7.

I am a bloomer, and I would like to think that I have very good, grounded reasons for my bloomerism. But I do worry that being a bloomer leaves me with blind spots in my analysis.

I think if Trotsky became head of the USSR, there probably would have been counter-revolution and full capitalist restoration one way or another within a decade or two.

I noticed a day or two after she was murdered, the media flipped from calling her an “American” to a “Turkish-Amercian”. The hyphenated descriptor allows you be assured she wasn’t a “real” American.

And is it just me who thinks it’s completely insane to see left wing publications regurgitating neoclassical myths like using monetary policy to control inflation

While this isn’t an excuse, I think even on the left it’s hard to escape the underlying economic assumptions of society. While we should insist that leftists and leftists publications educate themselves and be better informed how the economy works… it’s not as simple as reading up on the first volume of Capital or even the third volume. Understanding the nuts and bolts of modern capitalism is hard. Of course it’s imperative the Marxists most of all understand it (again, not making excuses), but I think there’s just a dearth of resources out there to improve here.

Yeah if there’s one thing Americans are demanding this election, it’s to spend tens of billions more on the war in Ukraine.

Also when did the US ever actually “stand up” to our boy Papa Joe? Honestly the US never was able to do shit to Lenin, Stalin, or even Khrushchev frankly (the US did kinda back down in the Cuban middle crisis)?

We’re also seeing that either the Chinese government has less control over its own banks than we previously thought, or they believe that the economic benefits of trading with Western countries still far outweigh a closer relationship with Russia (a very tiny economy compared to the collective West), indicative of their inability to wean off an export-oriented economy.

My hunch is that it’s the later. It tracks with all the other moves China has made in recent years, where trade with the west is prized over potentially harming that trade with “hostile” moves like de-dollarization.

Just that part about violating “community guidelines”, because YouTube can’t say the real reason IMO.

The Electronic Intifada just received a 7 day ban for violating YouTube’s “community guidelines”. They were not able to do their weekly livestream today.

I just started watching his stream recently. I had no real opinion on him or his fans, but I have no idea what you are talking about. He is not voting for Kamala and from what I can see in his chat neither are at least 95% of his fans.

He had his moments.

We will meet next week with the purpose of making an agreement on a creature in Gaza

Is this perhaps a translation issue?

Harris, Trump, Biden, W, and honestly even Hillary and Obama would never get beyond local town administration in China. They’re all too incompetent.

I decided on whim to watch Iranian TV for a few minutes. I found a station IRINN and they were highlighting some drawings regarding Gaza. I missed screenshotting some of the better ones (because it’s live and I can’t go back) but I did manage to get this one, I quite like it:
