    There’s a lot of things going on, but one which can’t be ignored is the “Holocaust Industry.” As Finkelstein laid out in his book with that title, Israel and Zionists worldwide rely on the concept of the Nazi Holocaust being “unprecedented,” “unique,” “the worst ever and that ever will be.”

    For them it’s seen as a “watering down” (or whatever) of the Holocaust if something else is called genocide or a holocaust (small h).

    Zionists rely on the narrative that Jewish people are the original victims of human history. That Jews will always be the victims. They are victims simply by virtue of their existence as Jews in the world. This is proven by the Nazi Holocaust, one of the worst human rights atrocities ever perpetrated, which no sane person would ever deny.

    That has absolutely nothing to do with the existence of an apartheid state in the MENA region doing a genocide and ethnic cleansing. Yet it is constantly deployed as an excuse to allow “Jewish people” (meaning Jewish Israelis) to do this genocide. Zionists desperately want the genocide to not be called such because normal people might begin asking why it is that Jews in Europe were victims, but Palestinians in Gaza are somehow deserving of their fates.

    Anyway, I will say in my opinion, fwiw, the term genocide is almost pointless. I understand why it is exists. I’ve read and heard the history a million times. I just find it especially stupid that people will quibble over what is or isn’t genocide when the actual problem at the root goes unquestioned usually. Did one group of people mass murder civilians in another group? They’re tied up in the labels and totally ignoring that it doesn’t matter what you call it at the end of the day.

    For the record, I mostly blame Zionists and other fascist ideologies of the west for the “weaponization” of the word genocide. Ie only using it against the Nazis (first) and since then only against mostly African nations and I guess Russia now (which is laughable for many reasons but outside the scope of this comment). Regardless of the original intent of the word, it’s now just become an additional cudgel to use against non-western nations. But when the west does it… “it’s a lesser crime. Not even a crime! Definitely not murder. All those kids deserved it!”

    Ultimately the hogs are hogs. They wanna do violence and they wanna get overpaid for it. If they’re told to arrest “some politician” (average cop has no idea who runs Israel, let’s be real) they’ll do it. The only reason they wouldn’t is if the upper brass or their cop unions are pushing down saying do not do it. I’m not gonna pretend to know how to soothe the hogs. That’s up to Zohran to figure out I guess. You can always pay them off, but they’re already overpaid and don’t do shit. And if they do bother doing shit it’s never anything good. He’s promised to not “defund” them or reduce their numbers, so that has me already not very hopeful, unfortunately. That could also just be him trying to not get “accidentally” shot in the head by some roided up hog

    Yeah, ok, pussy.

    Honestly these Nazis just deserve to be opened up on on sight saying shit like that. If he comes to NYC and it’s public knowledge that anyone who sees him has a duty to immediately apprehend him, and he’s trying to pussy-ass his way through to be a “strong man” surrounded by 40 secret service… arrest him anyway. Fuck the NYPD if they don’t wanna do it. Just start deputizing motherfuckers and hand them a shotgun or rifle and point where the war criminal scumbag(s) is.

    I know to people that sounds ridiculous, and yeah it’s obviously fantastical, but what the fucking fuck else do you do if your end goal is enforcing the law. In this case the law being genocide and related crimes are obviously illegal. Netanyahu is wanted for a shitload of crimes against humanity. Is that ok to do or not? I think not. Ok, get the shotgun, get his ass… it’s simple. The other option is the right wing continues what they’re doing. History shows Nazis never stop until a sufficient number of them are no longer breathing. You can’t compromise with them or capitulate. They understand this. That’s why they say shit like this and will do it if it’s feasible. That’s why people gotta make it not possible.

    Alternatively, one stacked up Italian boy with a plastic gun… don’t even need a trial

    If you have a “good” (subjective, I know) relationship with your parents… maybe just ask? “Hey, Dad. How are your retirement finances? I want to know how you’re set up for the future.” Or whatever

    My dad is normally not the type to discuss the details of his finances (which is also my mom’s finances, he just handles all that stuff), but he happily breaks open the spreadsheets and plans he has if I ask. It’s something important to him obviously but also he knows it matters to the family too. One day they will die and it’s important for the main inheritors to have an idea what’s coming. Whether that’s zero or something substantial. Or if they have nothing setup, the family might have to start figuring out how to handle that situation too.

    All that to say, a responsible parent with adult children shouldn’t have any issue getting down into the shit a little bit. Of course this all hinges on a lot of stuff. I know there are some people who would just tell their kids to fuck off and never respond otherwise. 🤷‍♂️

    Bondi(sp? Don’t care) was just saying like a few months ago he had 200 victims. Then she corrected herself to almost 250 victims.

    That’s a MASSIVE fucking error which on its own feels like it could be worth a congressional investigation. Just that string of statements she made on Fox News. Like where the fuck did 750 more victims come from, Pam?

    Did Epstein abuse these girls all on his own? So there is absolutely no one else in all the footage he recorded of his own properties which was labeled with like “Name of famous person + name of girl?” Why did he label the tapes like that then?

    The list of inconsistencies and obvious lies goes on and on. It’s one of those things that’s so bad that I’ve just accepted the botched murder and now cover up of all the other perpetrators is purposely bad to just drive people insane. Alternatively it’s bad as a sort of “fuck you. Yeah, we did it. You know we did. But guess what? What the fuck are you gonna do? Piss and shit your pants over it?”

    I’m always suspicious of those types of polls, BUT even if I accept at face value that the majority of Taiwanese would like to keep the status quo (which was the majority last I checked) that’s still not the way the US government always tries to sell it. Or the article writers at least. My understanding is the majority on the island don’t want either direct Chinese nor direct US control over them at this time. They benefit most from being in the middle of the feuding large countries with both trying to sway them. Of course given propaganda, the right wing history of the governments the island has had since Kai-Shek fled there in defeat, and like 70 solid years or US influence in various degrees on the island I don’t find it all that surprising that they prefer things remaining as they are.

    I was mostly referring to the US military and government falling into shambles though, btw. China can simply stand back and wait until the US has collapsed more, as it seems all recent admins are trying to do. Once the US can no longer project power across the pacific to Taiwan, Papa China will be right there to step in. No military takeover necessary. I highly doubt Xi would want to do a military takeover anyway. It’s not really a wise move, imo, by any government to ever go in with a military and hold some place. That’s an absolute guarantee for insurgency to breed, and if their goal is to hold indefinitely and fully reintegrate the island into China as a whole, then willing assimilation is absolutely the correct path
