Someone should inform the General that just because they refuse to join in this particular “dance” doesn’t mean France isn’t on the sinking ship that is the US empire

Holy shit he threw Israel under the bus, institutional support for the zionist project is falling apart even at the highest levels

Utter collapse of American unilateral power

This is historic

How I thought I would look like as an adult when I was 10 years old

A strange thoughline in western historical analysis is that whenever new evidence emerges or a deep dive study is conducted; the numbers (while in many cases still exaggerated) almost always turnout to be closer to contemporary sources than once thought

Decades ago before the study of Roman economics and industry became a mature discipline, the size of the Roman army was considered greatly exaggerated and the numbers presented by contemporaries of the countless Roman civil wars was thought as downright ridiculous

Turns out the opposite was true, and far from being exaggerated the size of Roman industry revealed the Roman army was if anything constantly understrengthed compared to the underlying scale of economic activity

I’m glad the Iranians have zeroed in on how effective demoralization can be against the settler fascists

What the fuck?

I’m sorry comrade, I’m simply a conduit for great dialectic forces beyond my control

It’s so funny how communists are constantly proven correct beyond a shadow of a doubt, the death of an attack dog is never as important as the health of a capitalist’s investments

Americans are a bloody-minded people; if nobody besides the shooter was hurt, then in the minds of the average person, it’s the same as if it didn’t happen

The lack of dead guarantees people will perceive it as a false flag since it’s socially safe to do so

She’s a new Fetterman

That’s beautiful

Russians say Iran attack shows U.S. can’t be trusted in Ukraine talks (archive: Washington Post)

Fyodor Lukyanov, a prominent Russian foreign policy analyst who advises the Kremlin and Russian diplomats, told a Russian radio station that the U.S.-Israeli campaign in Iran “marks a transition to a different type of international relations” where “at any moment, you can move from being a person sitting across the table to becoming a victim.” Lukyanov added, “How can negotiations even be conducted in such a situation, if you know that at any moment the other side may shift to a direct personal attack against you?

“We know where Orban lives, where he sleeps, where he drinks beer. We even know who he meets. Let Orban think about his five children,” - former SBU Lieutenant General Georgiy Omelchenko (reddit link)

The funny thing about that sub is most of the users are Eastern Euros or Israeli

It’s either one of the most elaborate fabrication ops by US intelligence in the last 50 years (notwithstanding the fact it’s completely pointless and irrelevant)

Or it’s aliens; aliens who for whatever reason seem interested in shadowing and testing the largest militaries on Earth, a behavior that we can infer points to at least some rudimentary socio-political understanding of humans and implies some kind of limited prime directive being adhered to (considering the fact TicTacs aren’t blowing anything up or saving the day anywhere on the planet)

Personally I lean toward fabrication because a TicTac is such a lame shape for a starship and I prefer aliens that intervene when witnessing genocide
