Wtf is actually happening here? Have any credible journalists / experts weighed in?

Interestingly enough, a previous iteration of this exact kind of legislation was floated earlier this year, and Charlie Kirk of all people was among those who spoke out against it. Now, this is once again brought up, interesting timing.

Being an enemy of the US is dangerous, being it's ally is most certainly fatal.

I'm wondering if it merits a megathread, but honestly, I think the old saying should be applied here:

The opposite of love is indifference

Soon he will languish in the Lulag

Yeah, exactly how I felt. I was thinking "damn, Israel just bombed Qatar, I'd like to see what Lemmygrad thinks", and it's the same meme 50 times over.

I don't even think the Luigi incident got this much when it happened, and imo that was actually more worthy of being memed since it was in a way actually useful as agitprop.

I know we have a lot of Statseian comrades on here, especially now after the deprogram sub ban, and this might be controversial to say, considering the state of the place over the past day or so, but I really don't care about Charlie Kirk enough to see how it warrants this much meme posting when there is so much other concerning shit going on at the moment.

It makes me wonder if there is a concentrated effort by the powers that be to latch onto this story and push it to the forefront of western discussion to distract from something actually important, like Poland potentially triggering war with Russia, or the fact that the civilian aid flotilla to Gaza has been getting relentlessly firebombed, or that theres a color revolution in Nepal underway right this moment.

I was hoping to find some discussions on these things from a socialist standpoint, but it's wall to wall kirkposting so far. idk, seems fishy.

Trump just truthed that he's passed, Rip.

That only goes to show how bad it's getting when they're the ones reporting on this.

I understand your point and I accept that there is a curiosity to understand how such a place would have worked, in the sense of such limited space human habitation.

But come on, you can't compare it to the literal Pyramids, they are tombs, in the middle of the desert, not a sprawling block in the middle of a city that people actually needed to live in. The primary purpose matters.

For Kowloon, Were it possible at the time, perhaps exhaustive 3D scans of the building layouts and constructions before they demolished it could have been a valuable and interesting preservation of data to study later, but alas.

Idk, seemed like any other terribly planned and poverty stricken cramped urban neighborhood from Chinese history. Keeping them around isn't such a great look, the same way one wouldn't want to "preserve" the slums and favelas elsewhere in the third world.

 

I've been without work for a few months now, and I have little to no money saved up. I'm pretty soon no longer going to be able to afford rent, and it's been made clear that I will not be able to access the healthcare required for my hearing loss. After a months long back and forth with the government bureaucracy and insurance providers, I'm shit out of luck for the time being.

I just want to know if anyone here has similar experiences, and what to expect.

 

Would the current events affect the price of worldwide gasoline enough to make stockpiling gas right now worthwhile, cost wise? Which places would be affected the most?

 

Apologies for the awkward dimensions, this was how it was posted.

Transcript:

Mr President, God spared you in Butler, PA to be the most consequential President in a century—maybe ever. The decisions on your shoulders I would not want to be made by anyone else. You have many voices speaking to you Sir, but there is only ONE voice that matters. HIS voice. I am your appointed servant in this land and am available for you but I do not try to get in your presence often because I trust your instincts. No President in my lifetime has been in a position like yours. Not since Truman in 1945. I don’t reach out to persuade you. Only to encourage you. I believe you will hear from heaven and that voice is far more important than mine or ANYONE else’s. You sent me to Israel to be your eyes, ears and voice and to make sure our flag flies above our embassy. My job is to be the last one to leave.

I will not abandon this post. Our flag will NOT come down! You did not seek this moment. This moment sought YOU! It is my honor to serve you!

What is going on right now in India/Pakistan? I'm seeing all sorts of very concerning news and I hope any Indian, Pakistani or Kashmiri comrades here could help explain.

Was curious if there were any quotes that we'd like to share.

It's pretty hard to find anything from Stalin for example that isn't blatantly made up to demonize him.

 

A few days ago this suddenly popped up out of the blue, thoughts? I think more countries should tell the Dutch to go fuck themselves, if you ask me.
