I had the idea that the flour has been laced for a while with the drugs as a powder, but some new 20-year old staff sergeant just threw in the pills because they’re a lazy dumbass.

Time to spinup an offshoot org called “The Crown.”

On a more serious note, people will feel awfully silly about typing their tl;dr pro-/con- comments if the dude doesn’t even get elected. Let’s hold off the tl;dr comments until after he gets elected, shall we?

Me: I wish people in the news mega would stop comparing Iran with Syria.

Monkey paw: curls

I just assume the NYPD would murder him if he refuses to toe the line. He has countermeasures for everything else they can throw at him, even fascist stochastic terrorists (he just needs to have security), but if the NYPD wants him dead, he’s pretty much a dead man walking.

IOF goon folding like a lawn chair after getting sniped (plus a whole bunch of other footage of them getting owned):

Good job, but the fight is far from over. And if Mamdani can take any advice from the news mega, it’s that he must nuke up and purge the reformers from his rank lest they jeopardize the revolutionary project. And he also needs to make deals with Russia and China to have a modern air force. And have good AA.

Dude just cut a promo like he was in WWE.

Physicists: Nooooo, electrons don’t travel along a circuit in a smooth continuous loop. Their average velocity with respect to the path of the circuit is not c noooooo

Engineers: Haha, billiard balls go zooom

I mostly see this as a vassal that has the arrogance of thinking it’s not a vassal and being important enough to its imperial master that the master has to occasionally give in to their demands. A lot of religious nuttery also muddies the waters.

The thing about Ansarallah is that they absorbed communists from South Yemen instead of shunning them. I remember when Grayzone interviewed a member of the political bureau (he was the one who said “Thank God that our enemies are idiots”) and the dude mentioned how he was a member of a Dutch socialist party when he was studying abroad in the Netherlands. This shows that the movement isn’t hostile towards socialists or communists even if the movement itself isn’t socialist. It’s like how Putin and Lukashenko use dialectical materialism even if they themselves aren’t MLs and that’s due to the education they received from the Soviet Union.

I believe a similar thing has happened to Hamas. Hamas may not be Marxist, but the PFLP is explicitly Marxist while PIJ’s ideology is informed by various Marxist texts, which will obviously influence Hamas since all the orgs are in communication with one another. I wanna say that Sinwar has read Marxist text as well, so even within the leadership of Hamas, there were perhaps people whose decision-making were partially informed by Marxism.

Perhaps we’ll find a hidden section of Nasrallah’s personal library that’s just filled with Marxist text, with the most highlighted books being The Foundations of Leninism and On Contradiction.

Regardless of whether the ceasefire holds or not (it will be violated by the Zionist entity either way), the IRGC could always use the humiliating terms and implications of the ceasefire to stage a coup or declare martial law against the reformist government, correctly blaming the general predicament that the IRI is currently facing squarely on the reformist’s shoulders. Iran needs nukes and good AA, but they have to take care of the rot inside first. It makes no sense to remodel a house without first handling the termite problem.

The pact makes sense because the Soviet Union was already at war with fascist Japan and didn’t want to fight a two-front war against the fascists. After stomping on Japanese fascists, the Soviet Union would sign a non-aggression pact with Japan right before Operation Barbarossa, thereby guaranteeing that the Soviet Union would continue to fight the fascists only on a single front instead of two. And after stomping on German fascists, the Soviet Union broke their non-aggression pact with Japan and liberated Manchuria because only libs keep their promises to fascists.

I will never understand the shorts. Imagine having your entire calf and thigh covered in ticks.

Why yes, I never report people because reporting is just snitching. How did you tell?

We went from Abdollahian to this fucking clown.

Meanwhile in the AES:

In yet another assertion of sovereignty, the government of Niger announced that it would nationalize the Somaïr uranium venture, wresting control from the multinational nuclear fuel cycle corporation Orano.

while doing solidarity embargo would help them with their own fucking etim separatists training in syria

Why do you think China is getting chummy with Afghanistan? The quid pro quo is very obvious even if unstated: China will provide the infrastructure and training to a politically isolated impoverished state and in return, Afghanistan will liquidate any ETIM separatist trying to enter Xinjiang. And if they refuse to hold their end of the bargain, China can simply withdraw infrastructural support citing security as a convenient excuse.

They would have even done it even if the US carpet bombed them again and hundreds of thosuands were dying and did so without any guarantee that china would actualy help them in that situation despite having a paper somewhere saying they would. They would have turned Seoul into a parking lot with artillery until the last 30.000 people in Pyongyang bunkers and tunnels had a nuke button
