can we take a moment to appreciate that Yemen started doing this, got bombed by the U.S. (again), continued doing it, the U.S. begged them to stop with promises of treats and pats on the head, and Yemen was just like nah (with that baller line "We are not within the circle of those you dictate to”) and kept doing it? All while being one of the poorest countries in the world. Absolute king shit

lmfao everyone please watch the video in the linked article, it's hilarious. When he pulls out the super tiny paper shredder I laughed out loud. It legit feels like a scene from an Austin Powers movie or something.

it's so ridiculous how that's even possible; baffling how anyone can think this country is a democracy

Harris also delivered remarks that reiterated Biden’s stance and seemed designed to soften criticism of Biden’s position on the war, namely that he values the U.S. relationship with Israel more than Palestinians. She said Biden was “sincere” in his concerns, according to an attendee. She told the group she sees how much the war and the civilian death toll are “weighing on” the president and insisted he is “doing absolutely everything that he can to put an end to this war.”

i hate these motherfuckers so much

lmao at this comment

Google doesn't return anything for the "Langley Center for Democracy Studies", the purported source of this map.

reminder for anyone who wasn't aware: the "Third Assault Brigade" the article mentions is literally just the rebranded Azov battalion lol. Eat shit, Nazis

that whole weather balloon embarrassment

speaking of that, even though the US has openly admitted that the balloon wasn't a surveillance device and didn't collect any data, just yesterday my local news station was still calling it a "spy balloon" lol

it's so crazy to me how there have been thousands of pictures and videos showing incontrovertible proof people in Palestine are being massacred, we've seen exactly zero pictures or videos of the same happening in Xinjiang yet between the two countries China is the one being accused of genocide by the west

when I was a lib I used to like The Daily Show because it was kinda cathartic to watch them mock conservatives.

However I remember one episode where they were covering a story about students at Berkeley protesting the marines opening up a recruiting office on campus, and basically the entire segment was them shitting on these kids. The students were anti-war and didn't want the US military recruiting future killers on their campus. The Daily Show even had their news correspondent Rob Riggle (retired marine) interviewing students and trapping them in ridiculous "gotchas" to make them look dumb. It was one of the first moments as a baby leftist where I was like "wait... why are they doing this? those kids are right to not want the military at their school." And watching this thickneck piece of shit Riggle bully young people who obviously don't know enough to "debate" him while a camera is shoved in their face was infuriating.

Then later I watched Stewart perform at USO shows in Iraq and Afghanistan (among other places) to entertain these imperialist tools and I just lost any shred of respect I still had for him. He even had that awful "Rally to Restore Sanity" event in D.C. which was effectively a giant centrist circlejerk that accomplished absolutely nothing. I haven't even paid attention to anything he's done since but I'm not the least bit surprised that he's still a dipshit.

alright am I crazy or is this not the exact same thing these people were saying last year as winter was approaching?
