it's cool how young men voted republican as a bloc in one (1) election and immediately got like 30 "here's why you should never do that again" policy lessons.

Tired: new Lada

Wired: new Tesla

remember you can always burn Shein clothes for petroleum

Small update on this, it appears the dildo of consequences may be arriving unlubricated because oil is now unaffordable.

Crude Oil WTI (OIL) o Real-time derived - Currency in USD 111.16 • Real-time Data • 18:09:50 +20.26

there is something poetic about how MAGAs in their 12 mpg F-150s will be hit the hardest while coastal libs who take transit will have the least exposure to skyrocketing oil prices

Makes sense. If Elon Musk won't send his bots to like your posts - how could you hope to win UK elections?

The end result of this war is that we either exit with Shia North Korea controlling the Strait of Hormuz, or pre-1996 Shia Afghanistan with random militias being in a position to fuck with the Strait of Hormuz.

The lack of observable insider training activity around oil futures from the administration before the war - at least not clearly identified this far - suggests they didn’t forecast an oil supply shock.

Remarkable.

Operation Iraqi Freedom is a model of professionalism by comparison.

Somehow, the Sasanians returned

It's becoming increasingly obvious why no US president prior to Trump II ever gave Netanyahu the big war with Iran he's been demanding since 2002.

One of the greatest ironies of Putin's war is that an operation intended to "demilitarise" Ukraine has completely militarised Ukrainian society

Strait of Hormuz is why various advocates of opposing Iran urged against all out war.

Yet another instance of refusing to believe warnings that the stove is hot.

Wasn't even a debate between hawks and doves, but between hawkish types who value smart strategy and stupid hawks who say it'll be fine.

Trump take car juice

The Support the Troops! people support them all the way into caskets for vainglorious wars.

Footage of burning fires along a city street, as ignited oil from an attacked Iranian storage facility flows along drainage lines.

Let's see how many "The People Have Spoken" pieces we'll see about this in UK and US media.

If AfD had won they would be countless.

Kind of epic how British tabloids still haven't noticed that their pro-war position to play to an American audience isn't even popular with most Americans

Polls have closed in the first of this year's five German state elections, in prosperous Baden-Württemberg. It's looking like a remarkable win-from-behind by the Greens under @oezdemir.de. Full results over the course of the evening.

With responses to Cem Özdemir's success we are now on to the classic right wing trope of "how dare the other side run the kind of effective election campaign that we used to be good at"

Americans voted for war crime proponents—open, unsubtle advocates for years, whose big criticism of the U.S. military and allies was insufficient war criming due to, uh, wokeness or something—telling themselves it would bring peace to the Middle East, and stick it to Middle Eastern war criminals.

The scepticism concerning the coherence of the Trump administration shouldn't deflect attention from how the Israelis and parts of the US military have been developing plans for strategic operations against Iran for quite some time.

Trump might be clueless, but others behind this war are not.

The 3-hour special combat operation became a 3-day special combat operation, and is now turning into a 3-week combat operation ... then it will be 3-months ...

Victory will always be around the corner, ever so close.

Both are fakes, only the Front of the Judaean People speaks for the people ... or was that the Front of the People of Judaea?

Too many splitters these days.

Look, the Judaean People's Front was right to break with those frauds in the People's Front of Judaea.
