prosecutors wrote “This brutal, cowardly murder was the mechanism that defendant chose to bring on that revolution.”

lmao yeah the coolest and bravest thing an American has done in decades is cowardly. These ghouls are so full of shit about literally everything they do, just lie and grift everyday

You know if the zionist entity did somehow legitimately agree to end their military-settler aggression and withdraw from all occupied territory to the UN Green Line (setting aside that all "their land" is occupied territory) I don't think Iran or their "proxies" would attack them for quite a long time. Iran isn't even attacking them NOW while they genocide all their neighbors, and those stupid 1 off drone showcase "deterance" strikes barely count as attacks.

Also US support for the entity started long before the 79 iranian revolution anyway so literally everything this guy said is wrong and stupid

I have absolutely no idea what motivates the leaders of modern Russia

a wiser and more humble person would consider that this is the case because they just don't know jack shit about Russian geopolitics or history

Rachel Corrie wasn't a famous EU liberal darling before they ran her over though. Even though I'm sure the entity is salivating over nuking pflp-octoplushie she may actually be too famous for it to be worth it

because hanging out with your co workers or boss still feels like work, and work sucks and is alienating

I think this is it, if you pay a Dr. Feelgood to prescribe it then it doesnt count as drug use

What happened to "he's never leaving this is the end of democracy"

obviously, trump is gonna chicken out on ending democracy, so let's just go back to brunch and not worry about it.

yes it is just party custom, it would basically just be discrimination otherwise to bar the children of officials from office. But PR China is a party state so the CPC can regulate their officials in ways beyond legal statues. And a princeling can overcome the custom if they are competent, but your work will be held to a higher standard within the party. Xi is technically a princeling, his dad was a high officer who was purged in the CultRev and later rehabilitated. But Xi did good work in state bureaucracy at the lower levels so the party kept promoting him. Xi for his part has kept up the suspicion towards other princelings during the anti-corruption drive.

Western media about princelings is delusional though, talking about them as like some elite aristocracy within the party (projection). The truth is that they are just the generation who was able to get the earliest benefit from the Chinese economy and culture finally modernizing (higher education, new industrial sectors) and as more Chinese people get those opportunities I think princelings will become less relevant all around.

Trump's mistress starting ww3 trying to kidnap xi's daughter would be a pretty funny casus belli ngl
