Ragebait gets me sometimes

I really recommend having a youtube feed that is just subscriptions. No recommended section. It’s quite nice

A whole week of sharks 👀

No and they probably never will. At most they would he prosecuted for endangering the national project.

It isn’t as big as it used to be by comparison. Power creep is a removed

Come to think of the dove nesting on my balcony showed up only after I joined that communist book club

Yeah obviously. It’s just a silly meme

Soviet taint

You already got some good writeups so I just want to point out that the 30,000 Iranians dead claim is highly dubious. The evidence genuinely boils down to, “this person said so”. Think for just a second how long it took the official death toll in Gaza to reach 30,000. It took them months to accept that number in Gaza but in Iran it took just a few days. Compare the levels of devestation. Does it really make sense? Consider that the companies telling you these things are owned by people who directly benefit from US imperialism.

I’m glad it was a good experience cause holy shit is it cool

Yeah but clearly that isn’t enough

America I guess. It is weird to say we huh, I wasn’t really thinking about it.

I see it as a mutual insurance thing. We probably have something on them too. Doing horrible things together can also be surprisingly bonding.

I’m not scared

I think its most likely a mixture of both. I don’t want to give the impression that I subscribe to the ZOG point of view

The most critical issue of our time

Just a few generations nbd

To be clear this is copy and pasted but it is critical information about the motivations behind our aggression towards Iran that doesn’t depend on the dubious claim that Russia secretly controls the largest economic and military power of the last century.

To be entirely clear, a large contingent of the US ruling class has been frothing at the mouth to invade Iran for decades. It should not be surprising that it happened and we should not blame our governments aggression on foreigners. That rhetoric is a useful tool to reduce the fury you should rightfully feel towards our rulers.

I favor the theory that it was now or never.

They’ve overused sanctions and have kickstarted dedollarization. For the same reason they kidnapped Maduro, they only had few years before it reached an irreversible tipping point. They had to capture Iran’s oil and monopolize it to keep the petrodollar alive.

And.

Iran was becoming a harder and harder target to attack militarily, and it had just defeated their attempt at color revolution by demonstrating it could defeat their Starlink operation on the ground. The longer they waited, the more rockets and missiles Iran would have to retaliate against US assets. The post-color revolutionary period was actually the weakest Iran would ever be ever again.

And.

China is a rising juggernaut, and Iran plays a role in that rise. They’ve signed on to join the Belt and Road initiative, China was key to restoring relations between Iran and Saudi Arabia, Iran is a key oil supplier for China, Iran is a member of BRICS, and China has also been investing heavily in Iran’s infrastructure. It wouldn’t be long before the sanctions didn’t even matter anymore because Iran will be able to sell and buy everything it needs without the West.

And.

Israel is no longer a viable settler project. The promise of Israel was that it would be a walled garden in the wilderness, an imperial core lifestyle with superior fire power and a perfect missile defense system and an omniscient surveillance system. Hamas blew that myth up during the Al Aqsa flood, now Israel isn’t getting new settlers anymore and many settlers are trying to leave. It’s why they’ve had to ban Israelis from flying out of the country. If the Axis of Resistance isn’t destroyed, Israel is finished.

And I’m sure there’s more. Basically, if Iran doesn’t fall within the next few months, the US empire will begin an irreversible decline.

Buckle up

I genuinely believed you dated a gamefreak developer

People who do this aren’t the type to care. I doubt it keeps her up at night
