Iโ€™m sure similar things have been said about Germany, Japan and Italy, but even as those nations werenโ€™t split apart, they clearly developed new national identities that donโ€™t involve notions of superiority or threatening their neighbors.

I donโ€™t think they need to be insignificant.

Once free from the shackles of Moscow, they could become thriving nations, each with their own unique cultural identity.

"Americans are weak and stupid they won't do shit to stop Trump" stop it. Log off.

Meaningful resistance in LA and other cities. Millions activated and hitting the streets. Plummeting polls. Simmering anger

And instead of encouraging it you tell ppl it's hopeless. The fuck is wrong with you

whatโ€™s frightening is seeing how mechanical and coordinated it all appears

itโ€™s not random acts of unhinged rage

itโ€™s policy

mind you, iโ€™m not saying Jewish people should not live in the Levant in safety and prosperity, but i am saying that many peoples deserve that, too โ€ฆone land, many cultures โ€ฆpeaceful, prosperous coexistence is the only true path forward

โ€ฆseems to me that Zionism is just some made up BS to prey on Jewish ancestral trauma to justify ethnic cleansing

uhhhm, okโ€ฆ

so, this whole bit about Jews being indigenous to the land, yet the Talmud states that the land was forcibly colonized โ€ฆand yet genetic studies show both Jews and Palestinians share Canaanite genes in roughly equal proportions

Andry Josรฉ Hernรกndez Romero, I remember you, even if I do not know how to articulate my horror, rage, & sorrow at your treatment by my government.

No one has heard from you in 109 days.

As vigil, Iโ€™m posting a photo or video of you every day until you are returned from El Salvador.

I believe that's correct. It's about creating the most lavishly funded ethnic cleansing operation in world history.

โ€œWeโ€™re the good guys,โ€ I tell myself as a 6-year-old leukemia patient pees his pants in fear. I adjust my black mask and sunglasses in the mirror, making sure to hide my identity. โ€œI am not evil,โ€ I whisper.

1/23 ๐Ÿšจ๐ŸงตThis should be a MUCH bigger story.

The White House, under pressure from Bukele, quietly dismissed U.S. terrorism-related charges against MS-13 leaders, undoing the U.S.-led Joint Task Force dismantling the transnational gang.

THIS is why the deportations had to be a show.

long story, BUT the short and dirty version is that they want israel to be intact so the antichrist can exist, the 3rd temple can be built, a red heifer can be sacrificed, and jesus comes back and rewards them for hastening his return. also, over half l our war cabinet believes in this explicitly
