  • Yet he went on to suggest that Iran should have the right to enrich uranium, be allowed to develop ballistic missiles …

    and he’s damn right. If they weren’t developing those before, which I’ve read that they really weren’t because of outside pressure, they definitely should and should be allowed to. You don’t become one of the oldest countries to still physically exist by just sitting around and letting other countries control your exports. That ain’t how the game works. Now, pair that with US bases in the Middle East going bye bye, and the govt of Iran about to hit a sweet $300 billion deal, I think it’s clear who “won” this time.

    … But hey, Friday is a whole day away

    (Give Cuba nukes now)

    care to share these “Independent journalistic investigations and unclassified intelligence reports”?

    I’m curious as to how we can view unclassified reports. I ain’t never been to college either so idk how legit it is to base your view on one of the oldest countries political system on “unclassified documents”

    ALSO no matter how much of the truth is presented to you in provable information, you are pretty much accurately describing how the US and the west function. With China it’s all like “behind the scenes” or whatever so you can just say anything. With the US it’s literally out in the open and you can prove it.



  • Yeah, “free” speech that spreads fascist propaganda should be dealt with and censored. World views that are centered around hate, xenophobia, ignorance, colonialism/imperialism, violence, anti-immigration/emigration, and “racialism” “”science”” like Nazi Germany and Fascist Italy and their modern sympathizers should be heavily censored and criticized.

    The freedom of speech isn’t supposed to protect you from lies, rather gives you the right to lie and cheat as long as you don’t break the arbitrary rules. It also doesn’t protect you from being personally socially persecuted by your employer, neighbors, friends and family, etc. In fact, it’s meant to protect your right to believe whatever cool and just or whatever stupid thing you want to believe.

    You say “oh so it was never about free speech then huh”; but no. It was never about just being able to say whatever. I personally don’t think the right to “free speech “ should give you the right to lie to children and propagandize them & then sell them stuff with cool words and fancy colors. You can’t go into a business and threaten them because they can enforce that, and it’s a GOOD thing that your “freedom of speech” doesn’t protect that.

    People can’t even say free Palestine or Fuck ICE, your idea of “freedom” is far different than mine. Freedom for fascists is a death sentence for everyone.

    The building I work in (USA) is one of those new super ugly and weird cheap gentrification-vibe-buildings that’s like half brick and that weird corrugated metal stuff kinda slapped on in random places and the porch/deck things that are just like black square rectangles. They call it “mixed use residential” because there’s apartments and also a fancy Sicilian restaurant (that I work in) and an investment firm, used to be a clinic that’s now a real estate office, weird ass Montessori school. Oh, and they’re building an identical one right across the street right now. There’s a new hotel by one of the well known rich dudes in town that’s the exact same style of corrugated metal sheets dispersed randomly on the outside walls. It’s so ugly.

    So answer to your question, yes commie blocks are better, and America is attempting to emulate them in the most hyper capitalist McMansion way possible

    a Nazi collaborator from 1940s a hero is obviously a bad look, but that does not equal modern day Ukraine being Nazis.

    Why does this read like you’re trying to soften him? Just say “a Nazi”. Does it feel better to mention he was a Nazi in the 40s, or the “collaboration” part removes him from Nazism? Idk you tell me I guess.

    Also throwing a parade for him in 2026 is what would implicate them being Nazi in modern day. Just FYI
