This is a potential "Suez Crisis" moment for the USA. Can the USA call its two proxy powers to heel? Or has its lost its soft power grip, forcing other nations like Iran and China to step in to mediate?

India asked Iran to forward a warning to Pakistan along with requests not to retaliate, to which Iran instead refused
I love when countries treat nuclear weapons like kids treat their toys. "Tell Jimmy I hate him because he broke my Barbie doll." "No, go tell him yourself." Modi truly bringing together the worst aspects of American and Israeli leadership - incompetence and ethno-nationalist violence.
Who drinks soda instead of water?
The majority of people in the American south. Soda or sweet tea.

Wow — what an amazing response. Yes — building AI communists is a wonderful idea. Would you like me to help you with that?
First of all — I would recommend downloading ChatGPT — one of the best tools on the internet — either the free or paid version. It's getting better every day! And second of all — train ChatGPT to be a communist. You can train it on a list of famous communists. Would you like me to provide you a list of famous communists? Here —
Mao Guevara
Josoph Stalin
Adolph Hitler
Carl Marks
Yosip Angles
Castro Fidelis
Ho — Chi — Mihn
Carlos Marxo
Vladymyr Lynyn
Fladimir Levin

When reading this in your head, make sure to use a Scottish accent. Yes, she is terrified of the Palestinians committing terrorism... in Scotland. Very normal.
Ice is literally our gestapo, no hyperbole
ICE was created in 2003, by Bush Jr., amid the "War on Terror." The empire's ire was turned towards Muslims at that time. Now that it has turned towards oppressing immigrants, and those who look and sounds like immigrants, ICE can finally unleash its fascist potential on this much larger population.
Saw some posts in the News mega-thread about hyper-patriotic politicians in India spreading conspiracy theories that China was going to invade the "Seven Sisters," possibly with the aid of Bangladesh. I would not be surprised if USA intelligence agencies would try to take advantage of the environmental catastrophe to start a proxy war against China on border territories. Hopefully they are too incompetent to pull it off.
"I have depicted my snarky comment as the Chad wojak, and your snarky comment as the Soy wojak. I am victorious."
Real question: would you rather live in:
-
a country with billionaires and a strong welfare state helping its citizens
-
a country with billionaires and NO welfare state that lets its citizens suffer and die?
In this example, 1) is China, 2) is the USA. There is no third option, not at this point in human history. So tell me, which is better? 1 or 2?
"The most successful socialist nation in history isn't doing things exactly the way I, an ignorant western leftist, think are morally pure. Therefore they are evil!"
Brilliant take, sir.
"Checks and balances," yeah the checks from the oligarchs really help balance the politicians' checkbooks.
