Breaking: Israel may have committed genocide using US weapons, sources say
If you need any more proof that network news is state propaganda, this is it. Clutching your pearls about how a sovereign state defends itself is peak fucking entitlement. The USA is the Meca-Streisand Karen of the world, I say this as a disaffected 'Merikan myself.
Exactly, like this whole premise that two sovereign nations are not allowed to trade because it’s inconvenient for the US is a really wild premise when you think about it.
Meanwhile straight up merging US with Israeli military
And may more U.S fighter jet get shoot down.
Probably a Russian system. So far no Chinese arsenal was shown by the Iranian resistance.
China if you’re reading this:
More dead US servicemen & women can only be a net benefit to the world.
somehow this guy’s comment was approved by mods and stayed up all day and my comment replying “fuck you” was too much

Obligatory US troop copypasta
You see american choppers in the bright blue sky, hundreds and hundreds of screaming american soldiers drop from it, you look across the field and see the tanks rolling in. You hear a loud explosion and realise that the shrine you have protected for thousands of years with tooth and nail is destroyed by the empire, you come to the realisation that this is very probably the end of your people who’ve struggled to survive all these centuries.You realise that very soon there is going to be a river of blood of your people here; white phosphorus and depleted uranium will be shot very soon, deforming babies for decades to come, and millions of your people are gonna be killed. Your millennia old language and religion will be wiped out, you’re very likely the last of your kind.
Suddenly, an American soldier kicks you down, puts his foot on your neck and aims his standard ar-15 on the side of your head all while screaming; you realise you’re gonna die, and you won’t have to see the destruction of your community that you fostered so carefully all these centuries for.
Just before he pulls the trigger, you think to yourself, “To be fair to him, he probably had a low GPA in highschool and didnt have a health-care, those are notoriously hard to get in America”.
Contempt towards child killers isn’t misplaced
Don’t confuse hatred of the institution with hatred of the people fed into it.
The U.S. military sells education, healthcare, housing, income, status, and stability in a country where those things are not guaranteed. That is not an accident; it is part of the recruiting bargain. A lot of people join because it is one of the few paths that looks structured and secure.
That does not make every service member personally responsible for U.S. foreign policy, defense contractors, or the political decisions that send people into wars. Criticize the machine. Don’t pretend every person inside it built the machine.
That sounds a lot like “I was just following orders… Because free healthcare and shit”
Look up Simple Sabotage Field Manual. Joining Military for free education and not being homeless doesn’t mean you agree with or help the US. Most people leech resources intentionally and leave.
There is no draft, it is voluntary and some come from military families.
The draft does exist. Marketing/Advertising is the preferred tool. Military families are only one feed into the system, it’s absolutist to think otherwise.
Joining it doesn’t make you a fascist, especially if your baseline needs aren’t being met it gives you choice. Systems this large have to be taken down from the inside.
The US military is primarily comprised of middle class people who chose to participate in the subjugation of people infinitely poorer than them, in order to preserve their cut of the imperial spoils. Poor people who happen to join are also just vying to be allowed to enter the imperialist-peripheral class.
The machine and its components are part of the same process. To pretend otherwise is idealism, elevating some imagined internal essence of each indivual above the function they serve in material processes.
Even in your fantasy of an “innocent” génicodaire who only participates for economic privileges rather than because they personally believe in the fascist project, they’re still selling out and killing their fellow workers for selfish benefit. The term for that is class traitor and they deserve no sympathy.
It’s a fucking wild fantasy too. “Hey I was only a concentration camp guard because it financially benefited me, I’m not a fascist the machine I work at is fascist”. Liberal nonsense
While anti-fascist extremism is not fascism, social-media extremism can accelerate fascist dynamics by normalizing the psychological and rhetorical habits fascist movements depend on: dehumanization, purity logic, collective guilt, and contempt for procedural restraint.
This is not materialism. It is moral flattening with Marxist language.
Yes, the U.S. military is an imperial institution, and service members are implicated in what it does. But treating an enlisted 19-year-old, a general, a defense contractor, and a senator as morally identical erases class pressure, hierarchy, coercion, and actual decision-making power.
People can be responsible without being equally responsible. Recruitment works because healthcare, education, housing, and stable work are inaccessible to many people. That does not make enlistment innocent, but it does make “they’re all just selfish class traitors” a lazy analysis.
The machine matters. So do the conditions that feed people into it.
You are dressing up moralism in Marxist language. Marxist materialism has fuck all to do with moral culpability, which is the topic at hand.
If you want to talk about the tactical utility of radicalizing current and former US soldiers, that is where a material analysis is useful. I’ll toss whatever ethical considerations aside if it means advancing the liberation of the global working class.
But trying to use surface-level Marxist language to minimize the moral responsibility of fascist foot soldiers is equally hilarious and disgusting.
This still dodges the distinction.
If we’re talking moral culpability, then role, power, age, coercion, hierarchy, and decision-making authority matter. Treating a senator, a general, a defense executive, and a 19-year-old recruit as morally interchangeable is not materialism. It is flattening.
If we’re talking material analysis, then the recruitment bargain matters. The military offers healthcare, housing, education, income, status, and structure in a society where those are insecure for many people. That does not make enlistment innocent. It does mean the institution is reproducing itself through material dependency, not simply through millions of individually evil fascist choices.
“Implicated” does not mean “equally responsible.” That distinction is not liberal sentimentality. It is basic analytical precision.
You’ve obviously never been poor. Choice is a luxury.
You’re right, the poor soldiers had no choice but to go to another country and kill a bunch of people. What else were they supposed to do? The dead civilians are so entitled, do they not realize that choice is a luxury?
Joining military gives them baseline needs so they gain choice. Most soldiers never get deployed, and if they do they can use the gained choice to employ Simple Sabotage Field Manual.
And the innocent people they kill, where do they factor in this?
Most service members never even enter combat. You’re making assumptions based on media.
I’ve literally been homeless dumbass
Fuck off with your fascist apologia
Describe your experience and why you think considering nuance in a situation means agreeing or disagreeing to a “side” rather than analyzing the gray of every situation.
Hell yeah brother
Who gives a shit, when US are the ones invading. They should fuck right off, just as Russia should fuck out of Ukraine.
It’s no different.
Even more relevant, US soldiers and assets have been destroyed by US weapons. The US gave weapons to the Taliban, which were then used to fight the US. Who gives a shit where they came from?
That’s a little different, don’t you think?
Having your own side supply your enemy
Compared to:
Supporting an ally with weapons to defend their own country.
It’s definitely different, in that it’s significantly worse.
Hard agree.
Whoa whoa I’m entering your house to kill you and you’re defending yourself? With a Chinese knife? Not cool, mate. Not cool.
With a Chinese knife?
Perfect. My day is brightened.
Usa are also the ones invading in donbas. They should take their puppet nazi regime out of ukraine.
Duh? This is the equivalent of Ukraine for our enemies. They get to test their shit without risking open conflict…
people fighting against the empire are not my enemies
Oh I wasn’t implying they were my enemies in particular. Just the US’s historical and current political enemies. And they’re thrilled about the Inan thing. They likely ordered Trump to do it.
oh yeah agreed
