Yeah that seems like it should be the case, right? This particular event does look like just an indie film fest that should’ve gone ahead to me.

But plenty of chinese dissidents are right wing lunatics. A lot are fundementalist christians or say, explicitly pro fascist meditation cults who fund trump and orban and claim to levitate, like the falun gong.

If you look at the damage the substantially far-right cuban expat community have done to politics in florida and pressuring towards bad policies and war nationally, id be more careful about which anti-china voices to empower.

I gave you the benefit of the doubt with your last trolly comment because we’ve had good exchanges in the past but i’ll bow out of this conversation now.

I’m just pointing out that poll doesn’t support your argument. Prioritizing hostages is just not the same as opposing genocide.

From 5 months ago: 82% want to expell all palestinians in gaza and 47% want to kill every man woman and child

From june: 64% believe they are no innocents in gaza, which justifies killing even children.

That seems to me to be about hostages, rather than the genocide.

One in five still think killing palestinians is more important than saving the lives of hostages, but that doesn’t mean all of the other four in five oppose having killed all those palestinians.

People are upset about netanyahu prolonging the war and killing hostages for the sake of his career, but that’s not the same thing as opposing genocide.

how unpopular Bibi and his genocide is…

Netanyahu would likely get voted out because of his mishandling and killing of hostages and his corruption but the genocide itself still enjoys widespread popularity in israeli. If there was an election, a slightly different right wing zealot would likely win.

Trinidad and Tobago challenged Venezuela to provide proof of the alleged false-flag operation and said the joint military operation with the United States “aims to bolster the fight against transnational crime and build resilience through training, humanitarian activities, and security cooperation.”

That is confirmation from T&T, that’s the diplomatic equivilant of “lol bitch what are gonna do about it”.

Yes fapiao culture!

The bar i used to drink at in SW china would write fake receipts for business travellers. The one time i was there for it a dutch guy came in, bought an expensive bottle of maotai for everyone to share, then the owners wrote him a receipt for twice that much. The patrons got drunk, the bar got paid and the guy got to steal from his company.

Just your classic win/win/win.

Even the guardian is saying “purge the military of leaders who support diversity and equity” instead of the truth: “purge the military of anyone not straight and white”.

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.

As far back as the 50s their scientists showed that asbestos was present in their talc. Back when the story broken I read that some of their internal research even associated talc itself with cancer. In the 70s they lied to regulators, saying they hadn’t found any asbestos recently, they had of course. Even after most other companies stopped using actual talc in baby powder, J&J refused to change and insisted it was safe.

Meanwhile, Britain’s government and the police on Friday urged organizers of a planned pro-Palestinian protest in London this weekend to cancel or postpone the event.

Israel’s ongoing genocide of the Palestine people is driving up antisemitism world wide.

There’s more reason than ever to get on the streets and demand Netanyahu and his corrupt regimen to be brought to justice for their crimes against humanity.

Save getting answers from the creators themselves

Is there a reason you’re not doing this? If I made income from you tube I’d want someone to draw my attention to this.

I’d think that a “hey, I noticed this weird thing, is that you delisting or is yt being shady?” type communication would be appreciated and help flesh out the picture.

https://www.aljazeera.com/news/2025/9/4/is-venezuela-the-big-cocaine-menace-trump-claims-it-to-be There’s some stuff about Venezuela’s tiny role in cocaine several sections in and some mentions of the lack of evidence for anything the regime is claiming.

https://www.democracynow.org/2025/9/16/venezuela_miguel_tinker_salas This is the interview (I believe) that I heard on the radio that went over most of what I mentioned.

It’s important to note that NBC is peddling the regime’s lies in it’s headlines.

There’s been absolutely no evidence presented that the boat we attacked was associated with drugs, they’ve just completely invented a new cartel.

The routes that drugs take into the US and the leaders of groups responsible are all very well known and well studied. Something like 5% of coke comes in from Venezuela - they’re just not a major player at all.

if you want to call it some specific name

Yeah, that’s what I thought - they can regulate what you’re allowed to call it based on how you make it.

But they can’t ban all veal rotisserie, or outlaw cutting meat thicker than 5mm. Right?

The sparkling wine industry wasn’t crippled by not being called champagne and I don’t see how the german kebab industry would be crippled by not being called doner unless it was prepared in the doner style.

I don’t get it. Surely the german kebab industry could just change their signs to say german style kebab instead of doner?

Apart from hygiene, they can’t force you to make food a specific way, right? They can only regulate what you’re allowed to call it based on how it’s made. Anyone with more knowledge on the matter who can enlighten me?

Blair’s think tank has been doing the planning for the whole gaza riviera bullshit.

He’s been working closely with kushner and the israelis. According to a democracy now interview with a former state department mid east expert who’s worked with blair in the past, this plan largely assumes that israel’s genocide is successful.

Blair is being appointed because he’s been planning exactly how to loot the ruins of gaza to profit trump’s family and netanyahu’s friends.

thought

You can say hoped, it’s okay.

I do love the idea of just referring to the entire cabinet of our current regime as russian businessmen.

This is just an ad for obvious bullshit. Forbes may as well be running articles about how ozempic is done because of this one weird trick a local veteran discovered.

Note that he acknowledges his decision is “not popular” - seems like opposing genocide is still a minority position in Israeli society. That doesn’t bode well for the Palestinians that Israel hasn’t killed yet.

I’m guessing it’ll be more like the dot com bubble in the 90s - too much too soon but it’s not going away.
