Glad to see this community taking the principled anti-imperialist stand here (as we did on Russia's intervention in the Ukraine). The mainstream internet is full of the worst Zionist shitlibbery.

Death to zionism. Death to america. Death to white supremacy.

I am glad we can be your refuge from the rest of the internet

[โ€“] Mzuark@lemmygrad.ml 11 points 2 weeks ago

I don't think so, I think most of the pro-zionist buzz you're seeing is consent manufacturing. Noone sane wants war, and most people are sane.

Love and support to the people of Iran, Palestine, Yemen and all the people resisting the Zionist entity and Amerikkkan imperialism in mind, heart or body.

I cry for your people and your martyrs. The crimes the western imperialists have inflicted on these lands and these peoples for centuries is too much to bear. Inshallah justice and peace will come soon.

I never thought I will see someone so based being interviewed in an Iranian news media

Several good marxists, actually. Pretty rad for state TV

Every morning I play Disco Inferno and watch images of Israel burning

Apart from the main thing: next week we will have another general strike against our government. It's the 7th month in a row that we are striking now and we won't stop anytime soon

A very prominent figure in the Belgian neolib party (the ruling one) got on tv to talk about Gaza. He called Israel an apartheid State and he says that Palestinians have no other option than to die, live under oppression or flee. He even went as far as to say that if he were born in Gaza he himself would have become a terrorist to fight Israel. He says Israel is one of the worst disgraces of the century.

Now, I was blown away by this. This is even more harsh words than our party leaders use on tv. Like, fuck me man I 100% agree.

And this all goes directly against his own party's stance too.

[โ€“] ComradePupIvy@lemmygrad.ml 10 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Am I going to need to start liking the Belgian Neolibs? or is this a stopped clock is correct when someone sets it

[โ€“] SlayGuevara@lemmygrad.ml 12 points 2 weeks ago

Oh no it's still shit. It's neolib mixed with Flemish nationalism. But he thinks this way because years ago he visited Israel and got to see how Palestinians were living and how they were treated and that radicalized him when it comes to Gaza.

Which shows that he at least has some integrity. He is pushing his party to take action and as some sort of last resort has now decided to go on live shows to talk about it.

"China why wont you nuke your entire soft-power to stop the overstretch of the American regime when it's gonna do what it does regardless?"

[โ€“] burlemarx@lemmygrad.ml 17 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago)

China is already helping Iran under the table. There are supply lines from China to Iran. There's also a big player helping Iran with electronic warfare and satellite intelligence. It could be China or Russia.

[โ€“] MasterDeeLuke@lemmygrad.ml 10 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago) (1 children)

Demanding the PLA to go marching to Iran's aid of course would be silly but it's clear Iran is suffering a severe deficit in their air defense and are very much in a vulnerable position if no one steps to help them in that area at least. It's not going to stretch the US empire all that much if they decide to simply start wrecking havoc on Iran with B2 bombers. I don't think anyone who doesn't already hate China is going to be upset if they start sending Iran Pakistan level military aid.

[โ€“] 666@lemmygrad.ml 13 points 2 weeks ago (5 children)

They're most likely giving them everything they can plus intelligence support. Exposing that to the public or diplomatically threatens a significant chunk of soft-power they can continue to use.

From Venezuelan comrades to our Iranian comrades

[โ€“] SlayGuevara@lemmygrad.ml 21 points 2 weeks ago

A Dutch pro Israel org send out a tweet asking where the protests against Iran are, calling them a terrorist state that is targeting civilians. Satire is now officially dead. You can't top this.

Got a message from the Dutch railroad company gaslighting about the strike, saying it is their duty to keep The Netherlands available to everyone for a good price.

It's literally cheaper to fly from my home town to Ibiza and from Ibiza to Amsterdam than it is to take the 1.5 hour train if I plan far enough in advance.

Somebody just got their throat slid on a bus in my city and died. Sometimes I wonder why I bother living in a city.

I've seen a disturbing amount of anti-AES rhetoric lately, particularly on the bear site.

[โ€“] Commiejones@lemmygrad.ml 12 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago)

So they had months long struggle sessions and banned tons of long time users, made an open call to bluesky libs and told their users to be nice to them, now they are letting libs walk all over the left unity policy and shit on AES. Is anyone still questioning if hexbear got taken over by feds?

As in an increase on anarchism? that would not particlularly suprise me for right about now.

[โ€“] RedRook1917@lemmygrad.ml 14 points 2 weeks ago (2 children)

Its been a variety of lib/ultra/anarcho-Bidenist takes. We should hold space for criticism (aka critical support) but this doesn't seem to be that. More just reddit-tier bad faith garbage.

From @Middle_East_Spectator:


I am literally seeing Iranian larp Zoroastrians / pro-Democracy liberals and nationalists now siding with the Islamic Republic.

Israel has united the most unlikely of alliances. Iranians united for the homeland.


Very happy to see how the Iranian people from all types of ideology united against the zionist siege.

[โ€“] ComradePupIvy@lemmygrad.ml 12 points 2 weeks ago

Look we can all agree Israel brings people together, Aganst them

[โ€“] Mzuark@lemmygrad.ml 15 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Sending US troops to go fight Iran because the Israeli's started a war is probably the only thing that would actually turn public opinion against Israel past the point of no return. Which is why they're trying to be as subtle as possible with the phrasing of "moving troops closer to the border to assist."

[โ€“] ComradePupIvy@lemmygrad.ml 14 points 2 weeks ago (2 children)

there was a report from Cuba that said Majority US american opinion was opposed to Israel after their unprompted attack. So I think the fear they have is that this might make it pass the tipping point, and also Vitnam style anti-war protests

Days after a dude killed a completely random person on a bus in my city another person attacked random people with a hammer. This time I was actually near it. Idk what's happening but this city is on a shithole speedrun lately.

I went to the dentist this morning (boo! Tomato! Tomato!) and the TV was playing a news network called โ€œthe 700 clubโ€ also known as CBN. I had never heard of it before and was subjected to the most egregious, disgusting, Zionist propaganda I have ever seen on TV. The male host was interviewing the Israeli ambassador to the US and wow, just shitting on Iran over and over while talking up the morality of the IOF. With that comes white supremacist nonsense as well. It was like watching Piers Morgan tbh. I was also unable to change the channel so I just sat there like I was being tortured lol.

Edit: I also stumbled across this TikTok which I feel is very relevant to this discussion thread.

Why does the average person think the division in philosophy is between idealism and "realism" ? Its like they materialism has been mandela effect'd.

I mean i can imagine it is because materialism leads to marxism.

Don't have much to say about Iran cause fog of war and not knowing much about what's going on and all. But damn, it is hard not to have some anxiety about it. May this be a turning point for liberation from the colonizer in the region. ๐Ÿ™

[โ€“] SlayGuevara@lemmygrad.ml 9 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

We really need to reinvent cities in Belgium and The Netherlands as it's only becoming hotter and drier for the next few years. Absolutely scorching sun right now but everything is traditionally build to keep the warmth in. Not nearly enough greenery as needed. And as a result we're getting wrecked by the heat.

Some of my inner city hasn't got a proper park nearby for miles. Only concrete squares but they trap heat even more.

[โ€“] SlayGuevara@lemmygrad.ml 10 points 2 weeks ago (2 children)

And then you have lunatics like Amsterdam who have organised a festival on the city's highway and won't call it off. Have fun partying on fucking asphalt in 32 degree weather with full sun.

Thought I'd share some more light hearted news as a man walking his dog near a Belgian body of water yesterday found a Caiman wandering around and now a big search has been set up lol. They assume it is released by someone but otherwise climate change is taking up some really drastic forms.
