and ‘as israel hits hamas’ is pure IDF bullshit, too

note that *the entire american political spectrum* is loudly lamenting the deaths of half a dozen american adults, and not the schoolgirls the war machine they voluntarily chose to serve just murdered

More senseless deaths but may I suggest you get together with some surviving Gazans and the parents of the 165 Iranian schoolgirls murdered by the USA/Israel to learn from how they are dealing with the process of grieving immense loss. #SolidarityWithPalestine #SolidarityWithIran

It’s looking increasingly likely that Kristi Noem and Lewandowski funneled almost 200 million in government money to a company that is run by her friend and that nobody can give an address for.

Oh, and it was 8 days old when it was awarded the contract.

again, over 100 dead schoolgirls don’t rate a mention, but the deaths of 6 american adults who signed up to render them that way are lamented

this is american moral calculus across their entire political spectrum

this is why trump is their president

we must not embrace a military cult

#auspol

you know, i sympathise with the @meidastouch.com folks in general, but this ‘trump is in panic mode’ hopium-grift nonsense really needs to stop

trump is barely human. he is incapable of acknowledging fault. he is stupid. he cannot be anxious as normal people are. he is not ‘panicking’.

‘a lot’

i have seen *none*

#strawman

if you don’t mind waiting 3 months

so many commenters who clearly don’t listen to podcasts (or, at least, don’t listen to podcasts that are about anything other than celebs and/or sport) but are *really happy* to parade their ignorance as the definitive take on the issue

!!!!

don’t they have a lot of really popular shows?

NEW: Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy says the United States has asked Ukraine for help intercepting Iranian-made Shahed drones, citing Ukraine’s battlefield expertise. Zelenskyy said any assistance will come only if it does not weaken Ukraine’s own defenses.

‘tumultuous’ is an odd way of spelling ‘murderous’

if you don’t read books, no, they haven’t! it’s bliss…

dear 🇺🇸, while you’re all bewailing the loss of your half dozen ‘brave boys’, who, i remind you, signed up for this…

who was mencken writing about?

also, from 🇦🇺, we’re looking on and concluding that 🇺🇸 really is exceptional, but not in the way you all like to imagine

trump almost single-handedly destroyed our ‘conservative’ opposition last year, for instance, because we still know insanity when we see it

well, yeah, but you lost us at ‘tesla owners’, though

Iran Air Flight 655 - Wikipedia

whereas in the past (the crew got medals, i’ll add)

the thing is it’s impossible to know if you’re joking or not

this is a good example of strawmanning

maybe there are people who oppose all space exploration, full stop— maybe; but i suggest there are many more of us that think that *human-crewed* space exploration is as obscene an elite boondoggle as has ever existed

& one obscenity does not justify another

‘decades’?

they can’t even run for a minute

Thou shalt arrest the damn president.

Neguse demolishes Noem (2/2)

what we’re experiencing now is what happens to government when it has completely eschewed ‘elite’ notions like competence and expertise

mencken, sadly, was right about the american people, and the *whole world* is suffering for it

Australian energy bills could surge as Iran conflict drives up global gas prices Experts warn of similarities with 2022, when electricity prices went up by more than 40% due to the Russian invasion of Ukraine

Gas companies that export 🇦🇺 gas are about to make windfall profits after strikes on Iran & we have no plan to capture that value for 🇦🇺

To fix this, we need a 25% tax on gas exports that would raise billions of💲of revenue & ensure that when prices rise, 🇦🇺 benefits

who could possibly have known this might have happened?

Today in Iran…

Lol, US military commanders are telling their troops they're on a "spiritual mission" to bring about "Armageddon", and the Zionists have been using their old religious books to justify bombing kids in EIGHT fkn countries, and our media is like "IRAN IS AN UNHINGED THEOCRACY"

MIRVs have been around for decades
