brazil mentioned! does itautec still makes pc's?
someone's gotta have the brains. too bad that people here in the brazilian government are ditching FOSS after investing in them for so long.
someone should bring democracy to this god-forgotten country.
doesn't the governor of california have a spine?
...oh, right, democrat and stuff.
it's not that they can. they are.
- houses designed as if they were some private plastic surgeon's office;
- neopentec churches with black walls.
if i wanted to destroy the u.s., i'd vote for ralph wiggum.
if i wanted someone better than most presidents since lincoln, i'd vote for the lenin mummy from the simpsons.
... a senile version of him IS actually the president.
let's be honest, most products from the military industrial complex of the u.s. deserve the "acme" brand.
we have a concept for that in brazilian portuguese. it's called "gambiarra".
out of these things you said, so far iran is guilty of only requiring women to stay covered and, to a degree, child marriage (it's not a state policy, but marriage with girls as young as 9 years old is legal). as far as i know women in iran can drive (the last country where women were not allowed to drive was US ally saudi arabia) and are free to move around, work, study and such, notwithstanding the challenges that women face there (legal discrimination and the oppression that they suffer just by living in a capitalist country).
however, the liberation of women in iran won't come imposed by other nation states, especially the western capitalist ones, and certainly won't come as a result of a war against israel. they don't give a damn about the iranian people, be they women, queer, religious or ethnic minorities. the sionist establishment just want anyone that menace their grip over middle east off their necks, and that's what the iranian bourgeoisie are doing right now.
if you ask me what i think would be better, the working classes of both countries would team up to seize their military apparatuses and turn them against their elites. if that's not possible, anything that hurts western imperialism gives the world a small victory, regardless of whoever achieves them. we can take care of whoever punches the west later.
