Yeah this, the firefighter interview, the Bernie interview. It’s been great. He also said if the ceasefire holds, and if international parties are then allowed, he’s interested in going into Gaza. Scahill obviously cautioned him about the dangers associated with doing that (i.e. Israel can claim at any point that Hamas has violated the ceasefire and start bombing again) but they both agreed on the importance of international observers, journalists etc to document what has happened. They agreed to talk off-camera more about that.

Lies. US officials are known to be liars and blame Israeli last-minute changes on Hamas. Watch Hasan’s interview with Jeremy Scahill (starting at 22:15). He provided an exclusive look at the signed ceasefire document by Hamas and other parties on Monday while Blinken and others continued to lie till Wednesday that Hamas was delaying. And the reason the Palestinians wanted the document to be signed and to be exact is because of precisely what Israel is trying to pull off here: renege on the deal and claim it’s Hamas. Change the terms late into the deal. Not adhere to what was actually agreed.

I’ve been working on writing a communist fantasy series based inspired by the Chinese Revolution and a lot of my reading lately has been research for that, which also doubles as theory and history reading haha

This sounds incredible! I've been interested in doing something like this for a while. What does your reading list look like?

I've been reading some of the more popular Le Guin works. She's incredible, dunno why I waited till now. I've also been volunteering. It feels good to help and helps with my mental state (which is bad).

I also downloaded it lol. It's quite nice, though confusing?

I hate this new Cold War bs. I’ll never download IG. Fuck Zuckerberg. I’m never using YouTube shorts. RedNote looks cool. I’ve always wanted to learn Mandarin anyways.

I just came across this on my fyp! Not Amerikan so don’t need to dl RedNote but I just might cuz a) my country might just ban TikTok too, were the biggest us simps there are, b) who knows what’ll happen to my TikTok w/o all the Amerikans, and c) it does look fun lol.

I do want there to be like genuinely magnitudes more people to transfer tho. Like, if the ban fucking goes through, let there be 50-100 million people on RedNote and not a single fucking person on IG or yt or whatever. Fuck them.

im not amerikan but i know my cucked ass country will follow suit soon enough. goddamn i hate living in the western world. xi pls save us.

For a second I thought you were talking about a change on here and I damn near lost my shit. I hope to god our mods and admins remain strict stalinists.

When a person talks about how this will make queer people targets like on Twitter or Facebook:

Discuss ideas and be critical of principles. Show the respect you desire to receive.

A lot of attacks like that are common and worth refuting once in awhile anyway. It can be valuable to show the response on occasion. Additionally, you don’t always have to have the last word.

So now liberals say you can "discuss" trans rights or existence. Like, fascist ideas are fine. Theoretically, principally. Just be civil about it. Maintain the veneer. Fucking liberals I swear to god. The onus falls on the marginalized and the victimized to always somehow have to defend their very existence.

Sino-Soviet Split was the nastiest ugliest divorce in the history of divorces and we all suffer for it.

I have the Princeton/Reitter edition I’ve been dying to read so I’ll be quoting from it (once I start). y’all can lemme know how it compares to the rest. Expect me to join in a few days or maybe next week onwards? Or maybe I’ll just keep updating this comment for this week’s discussion and hope I can catch up idk.

add me add me add me

Hey, I’d like to be added to these discussions! I didn’t know we’d started already. I’ll have to quickly catch up
