Tons of far more meaningful examples, yet you chose this one. Way to expose yourself.

Authoritarians love some violence in the street. It allows them to swoop in with crackdowns they claim will protect the population from criminals. In fact, ordinary scared people may even call for crackdowns to “restore peace.” 

To make these moves backfire, we can actively project calm and communicate a commitment to order, kindness and nonviolence. We can use positive messaging and calmly explain the likelihood of future repression in a way that reduces fear. We can behave in ways that inspire, like mass dancing in the street…

I’m sorry but, what the fuck?

 

Argentina was able to acquire over twenty Nasher fighter jets from Israel in 1982, the year of the Falklands war, with more Israeli weapons and supplies secretly transferred through Peru. 

It also used Israeli-supplied Skyhawk jets to sink four British warships, including the Sir Galahad, which resulted in the deaths of 48 soldiers.

Declassified files now reveal how Israel repeatedly misled the UK government about its military support to Argentina, provoking a diplomatic crisis between both countries.

 

Doctors Without Borders/Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF) is appalled and saddened by the killing of our colleague Hussam Al Loulou in a strike on the morning of April 1 southwest of Deir al-Balah, central Gaza. His wife and 28-year-old daughter were also killed in this horrendous attack. He was 58 years old.

Did he voted for the 2001 AUMF in Afghanistan?

Did he voted for the 1988 Iraq Liberation Act?

Did he endorsed 2024 U.S./UK strikes on Yemen?

Did he support bombing Yugoslavia in the nineties?

Did he backed Libya regime change?

Did he backed drone strikes in Somalia?

These questions are legitimate, funnily, he always does the american thing right before backtracking. He’s the perfect "anti war" controlled politicians.

Danish shipping giant A.P. Moller-Maersk is quietly transporting fighter jet components to Israel, new documents suggest.

The information is contained within cargo data reviewed exclusively by Declassified and The Ditch.

The data exposes how goods from US Air Force Plant 4 in Fort Worth are being transported to Nevatim air base in Israel on two Maersk container ships between 5 April and 1 May.

 

The controversial company, already notorious for amassing over 50 billion facial images scraped from social platforms, signed a contract in mid-2019 with Investigative Consultant, Inc. to acquire roughly 690 million arrest records and 390 million arrest photos from across all 50 U.S. states.

"The contract shows that Clearview was trying to get social security numbers, email addresses, home addresses, and other personal information along with the mugshots," said Jeramie Scott, Senior Counsel at the Electronic Privacy Information Center, or EPIC.

Almost like democrats wanted trump to win.

I recognize a pattern.

You’re absolutely not, but addressing this one particular point while overlooking the damning others is an interesting choice.

Of course it’s not funny, as it perfectly displays the hypocrisy of many on the left.

Why even engage if that was the case? You could have reasonably countered his point, not for him, but for the other readers on this thread.

Funny how you dismissed 85% of his comment.

[–] GreyAlien@lemm.ee 7 points 12 hours ago (1 children)

Unfortunately, there are lots of ostriches in this thread who are going to think I'm promoting accelerationism, trump dictatorship, or putin.

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

You do realize the geriatric, senile cunt acting as your president is not and was never the brain behind US geopolitical strategies?

I just saw dozens of corpses today, some were children, dismembered by american bombs. Your sarcasm is weird.

People are angry, and rightfully so, engaging in some false sense of patriotism is wrong.

I read people on this thread telling commenters going against the tide to kill themselves. I read others saying they were russian plants.

Come on, wake up.

Do you have any examples?

 

BUDAPEST, Hungary (AP) — Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu arrived in Hungary’s capital early Thursday to red carpet treatment despite a warrant for his arrest issued by the world’s top war crimes court.

Hungary’s government, led by its populist prime minister and Netanyahu ally, Viktor Orbán, used the occasion of the Israeli leader’s visit to announce it will begin the procedure of withdrawing from the international tribunal that issued the warrant, the International Criminal Court.

NEW YORK (AP) — A federal judge dismissed New York City Mayor Eric Adams’ corruption case on Wednesday, acquiescing to the Justice Department’s extraordinary request to set aside criminal charges so the Democrat could help with President Donald Trump’s immigration crackdown.

 

The israeli army said it targeted "Hamas militants" in a strike on a UN building in Jabalia refugee camp Wednesday that Gaza's civil defence agency said killed 19 people, nine of them children.

 

A Cornell University student facing deportation after his visa was revoked because of his campus activism said he decided to leave the United States. 

Momodou Taal, a citizen of the United Kingdom and Gambia, had asked a federal court to halt his detention. But he posted on X late Monday that he didn’t believe a legal ruling in his favor would guarantee his safety or ability to speak out.

“I have lost faith I could walk the streets without being abducted,” Momodou Taal wrote from an unknown location. “Weighing up these options, I took the decision to leave on my own terms.”

 

President Donald Trump’s administration has acknowledged mistakenly deporting a Maryland man with protected legal status to a notorious El Salvador prison last month, but is arguing against returning him to the United States because of his alleged gang ties and the U.S. government’s lack of power over the Central American nation.

Lawyers for Kilmar Armando Abrego Garcia, 29, maintain he is not affiliated with MS-13 or any other street gang and argue the U.S. government “has never produced an iota of evidence” that he does.

Abrego Garcia was arrested in Baltimore on March 12 after working a shift as a sheet metal apprentice in Baltimore and picking up his 5-year-old son, who has autism and other disabilities, from his grandmother’s house, his lawyers’ complaint stated.

 

ORMOND BEACH, Fla. (AP) — Republicans Jimmy Patronis and Randy Fine won special elections Tuesday in two Florida congressional districts, bolstered by President Donald Trump’s endorsement to fill vacant seats in reliably Republican strongholds.

Patronis, the state’s chief financial officer, fended off a challenge from Democrat Gay Valimont even though she far outraised and outspent him. He will fill the northwest Florida 1st District seat vacated by former Rep. Matt Gaetz, who was chosen to be Trump’s attorney general but withdrew from consideration amid allegations of sexual misconduct, which he has denied.

 

In court, the Trump administration’s attorney, Brian Hudak, laid out the timeline, making clear that the newly-named president of USIP had not only been authorized to transfer the property, but the request had gone through proper channels and was completed by March 29. Hudak added that he believed plans were already underway to lease the building and the equipment inside, to the Labor Department.

That came the day after much of the 300-member staff was fired via email and left in turmoil over the weekend. Employees posted overseas have until April 9 to return to the U.S. The terminated employees have until April 7 to gather their belongings.
