Classic IOC behavior: refusing to sanction a fascist apartheid regime committing genocide, but immediately ostracizing any country that does 🤦🤬

Not true! I’m definitely not eligible, and I’m not listed anywhere in the article.

J&J really pride themselves on being a family friendly company, which makes it extra damaging that they knowingly gave mothers and babies cancer for 50+ years

That’s the most 2025 sentence I’ve read so far! 😬

You’re both right.

Well that would be thousands, if not tens of thousands.

The IOF’s second favorite thing to do after killing Palestinians is “arresting” (read: abducting) them on spurious or nonexistent charges.

They should DEFINITELY release them all.

What exactly are Palestinians going to “continue” to do? Be slaughtered, starved, and otherwise eradicated by the colonialists?

Whether you intended it or not, saying “Israel and Palestine will continue” implies that there’s anything resembling an equivalence between the actions of the genocidal apartheid regime and those of Palestinians.

Gotta get some more green on that map! I’m thinking fascist-occupied Italy would be a great place to start, given what happened there almost exactly a century ago…

And the US and Russia, of course, but those are both almost too obvious to be worth mentioning and too entrenched to happen anywhere near as soon as we’d like…

I’m not talking about Captain Ancap using the money. I’m talking about it and the peso purchases becoming worthless due to the dollar crashing.

So… What are these two idiots going to do in a few months to a year when the dollar finally crashes under the weight of all the tariffs and other monetary malpractice committed by the fascists?

It also helps that they’re dead

Not a UNIVERSALLY helpful thing, though…

In a fair system, sure

They’ll probably wait until the hostages are exchanged and return to annihilation

Probably won’t even wait that long.

While the broader population seem to genuinely consider the hostages extremely important, the decision makers in the government don’t care about them except as a convenient excuse for doing what they’ve always wanted to do.

I’m with Kathy here

Schh! Not so loud! Don’t want to alarm Cody Johnston

Don’t forget about the child slavery

I was about to say that they have the causality backwards but then I thought about it and realized that it’s both ways:

Racist demagogues complain about immigrants, which makes people more racist, which makes people more anti immigrant, which makes people more racist etc until everything is so fucked that fascists take over.

The only way to stop the process is to have highly influential politicians and journalists who are both ethically principled and at least as skilled at effective rhetoric as the fascist demagogues and their astroturfed echo chamber.

Which means that the US, Germany, the UK, India, Russia, Israel, and several other influential countries are COMPLETELY fucked right now.

Expected but appreciated wrt Ireland, pleasantly surprised about Spain ✊

The world should if they aren’t.

Yeah, I know. I’m DEFINITELY not saying that China’s a good place to live.

Just that it’s perhaps a less bad place to live for some people than the fascist-occupied US is.
