Just look at how much better Afghanistan is after we toppled the Taliban.

It’s time to cut Israel loose and let them deal with the consequences of the shit they’ve done.

Of course a suicide would have advance knowledge of their own death. It’s not unusual for suicidal people to lie about their own mental health. Especially to their closest loved ones.

What you point out could only support a vague suspicion; a motive to look for compelling evidence. Hanging a whole murder conspiracy on evidence this thin is not the product of critical thought.

This must have been planned well before the strike on Russian airbases (which itself was in the works for over a year).

No disrespect to Ron Pearlman, but, because of drones, war has changed.

Fun fact, Errol heaps praise on Elon’s brother, but speaks with disappointment and contempt about Elon. All MAGA has daddy issues.

Not be Russel Brand.

“Guilty until proven innocent” is a rule for the government, not for me. If you disagree, please explain your feelings about the unfair treatment of the innocent non-murderer OJ Simpson.

This is exactly what a rapist would do.

It should surprise no one that this doesn’t make sense with anti-ballistic missile technology. Even if you were willing to wait for the terminal phase so that you could be sure to block the nukes headed for Detroit and let slide the ones headed for Toronto, you might still see that there is a tiny problem. 90% of Canadians live within a 100mi of the Boarder.

The weirdest thing about the submissive nature of women is that it has to be enforced all the time.

These people are like the photo-negitive of Eugenicists.

anti-natalists present with reactionary ideology since they’re obsessed with what other people are doing with their bodies. And they advocate for a totalitarian state to regulate that. But then they’re also obsessed with environmentalism?

Maybe their lefty misanthropes? I don’t get it.

This is a big deal. The emergence of eukaryotes may be more important to our biological story than the emergence of life.

Some have suggested (I saw it on PBS Spacetime) that eukaryotic evolution is the “great filter” that prevents civilizations and explains the Fermi paradox. Perhaps the universe is filled to the lid with slimes and bacteria, with complex cells being vanishingly rare or maybe unique.

The problem is that the US put sanctions on this person. Not that M$ is obeying those sanctions; it’s not optional.

Best practice is to criticize them for genocide profiteering. They chose that.

I’m decades younger and I wouldn’t want to be compared to Springsteen.

It’s so discouraging that the big controversy isn’t what’s happening, but what to call it. We can’t defeat colonialism with semantics.

The attack on Gaza needs to stop, IDFAF if they call it a pumkin pie, just stop the goddamn pie.

Qatar’s whole society works on this. They’re one of the richest countries because almost all citizens are the aristocracy, while everything is run with migrant labor. They outlawed slavery, in 1952. They replaced that with the Kafala system, which is as you describe. Don’t worry though, they outlawed Kafala in 2016.

It’s pretty bad when an American looks at your government and thinks, damn that’s backward AF.

You cannot read Western coverage of Palestine without learning about Ermon and Chomsky’s “five filters of media”. It’s like a decoder ring.

Wild, this is like an episode of Ozark.
