They just don't care or don't even see it because they live in their personal bubble of like, sports news and little more.

I love how we're all fucked because boomers will never die. Honestly, Gen X has a lot more folks that let us down. It doesn't matter the generation really. I know a pregnant gen Z, and all I can think about is how her kid, according to the popular generational theory, is going to be the next cycle of boomer. That's probably why many young gen Zs are a bunch of little assholes. But then she was a screw up, and my gen, the millineals as everyone knows works harder and is still called lazy and had our own screw ups. Generations are what they are but having no chance at happiness due to the rich controlling every goddamn asset is a new kind of fucked we all have to endure.

Hey on the plus side a bunch of stupid fucks that think COVID is a joke or hoax will die, so win for intelligence, I guess?

Hopefully humankind as a whole survives their stupidity also.





Hegseth says Wounded Knee soldiers will keep their Medals of Honor


WASHINGTON (AP) — Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth has announced that he has decided that the 19 soldiers who received the Medal of Honor for their actions in 1890 at Wounded Knee will keep their awards in a video posted to social media Thursday evening.

Hegseth’s predecessor, Lloyd Austin, ordered the review of the awards in 2024 after a congressional recommendation in the 2022 defense bill — itself a reflection of efforts by some lawmakers to rescind the awards for those who participated in the bloody massacre on South Dakota’s Pine Ridge Indian Reservation near Wounded Knee Creek.

While the events of that day are sometimes described as a battle, historical records show that the U.S. Army, which was in the midst of a campaign to repress the tribes in the area, killed an estimated 250 Native Americans, including women and children, of the Lakota Sioux tribe, while attempting to disarm Native American fighters who had already surrendered at their camp.

Gotta say, the more I learn about history, the more I like Russia and the less I like Western Europe. Truly barbaric what those freaks have done.


Hegseth’s “Urgent” Military Meeting Is for Dumbest Reason Imaginable

Bug? URL rewrite after publishing breaks link


I'm trying to link to a YouTube channel and after submitting it, there's some rewrite automation that breaks the link. I've tried by app and browser, and it happens on both. Editing the post doesn't fix it either.

Democrats release tranche of Jeffrey Epstein records, including diaries and flight logs


Democrats on the House Oversight Committee have released a tranche of partial records from Jeffrey Epstein’s estate, which include flight logs, diary appointments and a financial ledger.

In the partially redacted documents, there are several emailed schedules over the years, which include:

  • A 2019 breakfast with former White House adviser Steve Bannon.
  • Lunch in 2017 with billionaire and Trump ally Peter Thiel.
  • A potential visit from Elon Musk to Epstein’s island in 2014.

There is also a flight log from 2000, which lists Prince Andrew as a passenger on Epstein’s private plane.

You know none of that is real, right? Like the absurd claims of outlawing standing more than 3 seconds in his presence? There's plenty of video showing that that isn't true at all.

Dua Lipa denies firing agent over pro-Israel views


The Mail Online claimed that Lipa had parted ways with David Levy for signing a letter urging festival organiser Emily Eavis to drop the rap group over their pro-Palestinian views.

Both Lipa and her talent agency WME have called the story "categorically false", saying that Levy stopped working with the star in 2019.

In a statement, Lipa criticised Levy's attempt to silence Kneecap, but said the Mail's "deliberately inflammatory" story had been "crafted... to fuel online division".




in reply to culprit

Netanyahu claimed foreign leaders who “public condemn us privately thank us. They tell me how much they value Israel’s superb intelligence services that have prevented, time and again, terrorist attacks in their capitals.” He did not say which countries’ leaders had privately thanked him.


“So Benjamin, are those leaders in the room with us right now?”

Even the US pulled their senior diplomats who’d normally be there and sent the interns instead lmao

in reply to Milk_Sheikh

He's not trying to say that their Intel service has helped. He's trying to emphasize "privacy" and "Israeli intelligence service" to remind people that Mossad has dirt on them, without literally saying that, imo
in reply to Tidesphere

Nah he's saying he'll order terrorist attacks against frustraters.
in reply to Tidesphere

How about we all agree to bomb Israel and see if they have any intelligence left after that?

He's talking to his domestic audience, trying to reassure them that his genocide in Gaza is not destroying the international support Israel needs to survive.


Trying to design my dead man's switch


Hey comrades. So I have started keeping a private journal to track and articulate my disjointed thoughts about the organising and groups I'm involved with. It's a directory of encrypted text files (currently just using vimcrypt but I could easily switch to something else) on a LUKS drive.

Obviously, it would be quite bad—both for my safety and the integrity of the groups the notes may concern—for the notes to get breached right now. However, I do think it would be valuable for revolutionaries in the future to be able to read the thoughts of someone who was involved in struggles potentially long past—it'd become a part of history, and perhaps could be used to help future communists improve upon the organising of the past.

I would want these notes to only be released after my death, so that there is no risk of incriminating me, and also only after they become irrelevant in the sense of the groups/events they concern are long past. The typical way to do this is a dead man's switch where you keep pressing some button every e.g. week, and if it doesn't get pressed for a week, your server publishes your secret documents.

The first problem with that setup is that relies on either the data being unencrypted, or I store the decryption keys on the server being used to store the encrypted data, which seems to defeat the purpose of the data being encrypted imo. I guess I could store the decryption keys separately and that also be subject to a dead man's switch but I'm just wary about the security implications of storing it at all, given the fact that I would have to use someone else's servers if I want it to be released a long time after my death rather than e.g. a week afterwards, when my own VPS may still be running.

The second problem is that digital dead man's switches assume that the individual in question isn't going to go to prison lol. It's almost certain I'll go to prison again at some point before I die (have already been locked up a few times in my short life), and it would be quite bad to have a bunch of potentially incriminating secret notes be released when I go to prison! I'm a lot more likely to be imprisoned alive than I am to die. I've thought of some ways to get around this—I could let a trusted person know about the switch and have them press it for me if I go to prison. Or, upon triggering the dead man's switch, instead of publishing things, it privately sends things to a trusted person, and that person is instructed to publish it if I'm dead and to discard it if I'm not. The prior problem about encryption still stands though.

As previously hinted at, I would want a significant delay between my death and the publishing of my notes, to minimise the risk to any groups or comrades implicated by the notes. So I think I would also have to store this on some big company or, maybe, a big non-profit organisation, that is reliable and unlikely to go down in X years, where X is however long I want to wait before things get released. So that brings further concerns about security if I have to entrust anything with a big tech company (and why would they host content by a dead person? They'd probably want to delete it to reclaim storage space; not like I'm paying them any money if I'm dead).

Given the first and third problems especially, I'm starting to think this isn't possible to do?

It's not the end of the world if I can't figure out a way to publish my notes. I don't mean to overblow my own importance in the struggle—I don't think these notes will be decisive or anything. But I think it would be nice to make them available—it would be nice if they could contribute something to the world, I guess, instead of just being me trying to sort my own thoughts about things I'm doing or experiencing. But obviously protecting the movement and my comrades comes first, and if I can't set something up that doesn't put them at risk, I won't bother.

Would appreciate people's thoughts. And perhaps if we figure something out, this might inspire other people to do similarly.

Democrats release Epstein docs with Musk, Thiel, Bannon and Prince Andrew mentions


Roughly six pages from more than 8,500 documents provided by Epstein’s estate to Democratic members on the House Oversight Committee include meeting schedules appearing to show appointments with Bannon and venture capitalist Peter Thiel during Donald Trump’s first term in office.

The documents also mention Musk joining a potential trip to Epstein’s island in 2014.

Prince Andrew also is listed in the documents as a passenger on Epstein’s aircraft, with financial disclosures provided to the committee suggesting evidence of payments from Epstein to an individual listed as “Andrew.”




in reply to ☆ Yσɠƚԋσʂ ☆

It's funny that what Trump had to say for everyone to realize that NATO cannot win this proxy war is what the Western media has been saying all along: "Ukraine is winning, Europe will defeat Russia". Europe is daddy US's *#$@! once again, and you will die for the gringos because you cannot let go of a golden past of successful colonization and imperialism.

Trump doing judo against Europe is kind of hilarious though. He basically found a way out by embracing the narrative.


Bondi fires a third federal prosecutor in Miami office, linked to anti-Trump posts


But Rosenzweig — considered to be among the rising prosecutors in the office — wasn’t fired because he had been associated with the criminal investigations of Trump by the Justice Department’s special counsel during the prior Biden administration. That was why two other respected federal prosecutors in the Miami office were abruptly terminated this year.

Rather, Rosenzweig was fired, according to multiple sources, because of the negative things he said about Trump on a social media blog before he became a federal prosecutor in Miami. When he was working for the prominent law firm Kobre & Kim in Washington during Trump’s first term, Rosenzweig posted criticisms of the president starting in 2017 — posts that were recently brought to the attention of the Justice Department.
