I actually agree #ObamaWasBetterAtEverything. when he was running an insurgent campaign against the establishment candidate hillary clinton, he pulled no punches, didn't play nice, didn't do bullshit civility politics. instead he did this and won:

here's more of obama just brutally mocking hillary clinton, calling out her hypocrisy and lies, her fakeness

remember in that debate in 2016 when bernie was asked point-blank by hillary to name one example of a vote she changed due to donations and being corrupt, and bernie didn't say anything while we were all shouting: "THE BANKRUPTCY BILL!!!". obama said it:

oh ok, but surely hillary clinton accused obama of being a sexist for saying all this, right? how did obama respond to that? did he cower in fear? did he profusely apologize and thereby accept the bullshit premise of the smear? no, here's what he did:

meanwhile some on the "left", pathetic, weak and fickle as ever, are having a discussion about how they weren't kind enough, weren't empathetic enough, have to talk more about "systems" and less about individuals. just admit you are afraid of power and want perpetual opposition
here's kautsky, known at the time as "the pope of marxism" and revered by lenin, decades before his reformist turn laying out clearly what he and many of the left later forgot: "the system exists only in persons, and I cannot attack it without attacking persons" Image
bernie's decision to not do this w/ hillary in 2016 and biden in 2020 was disastrous, as was corbyn's decision to not do it with may, johnson and the internal saboteurs in the labour party. there were people begging them to fight, pleading with them, but they took the "high road"
I don't consider leading your movement voluntarily to slaughter like little lambs to be "taking the high road". it's the opposite of that. it's a betrayal, it's cowardly, it's weak, it shows fear of power rather than the willingness to take it and save countless lives by doing so
and if the left and its future leaders aren't going to learn this lesson from our defeats over the past decade, something that those with power or desiring to take it from the right and center like obama and starmer know intuitively, it's going to keep being mercilessly destroyed

Lebanon has Hezbollah, so Israel was unable to take one more inch of their territory. Syria has US-NATO-Israeli armed, funded and trained Erdogan-Jolani, so Israel took land twice the size of Gaza and is expanding its occupation further every single day with zero resistance
this is of course why Hezbollah is perceived and treated as a mortal enemy by the genocidal Israeli death-cult. Nasrallah lived underground and was eventually assassinated. The Zio proxy Jolani prances around Damascus out in the open as Mossad agents crawl around with zero worry
after October 7 Hezbollah could have just spouted empty rhetoric about resistance and how much they hate Israel, and how much Israel hates them, and just left it at mere words. Like Erdogan, and Jolani won't even do that. Instead they gave their lives:

Luigi Mangione's manifesto refers to Michael Moore's Sicko documentary on the for-profit US healthcare system. In one part of it Moore takes abandoned 9/11 first responders to Cuba to get healthcare there, to show just how sick and depraved the US is by comparison:
another scene from the documentary. Moore explains how the universal Cuban healthcare system works, and goes to a pharmacy to get the lifesaving medicine needed by one of the 9/11 responders that costs 120 dollars in the US for only 5 cents there. She's completely shocked by it:
when the firefighters and paramedics in Havana heard that the 9/11 first responders were there, they invited them for a visit, as they wanted to honor them for their bravery and service in a moving display of international solidarity

scenes from Libya in 2011. Celebrations in the streets. Dictatorship is gone forever. Freedom has come. The voice-over says: "The Libyan people are hoping for a quick recovery, and see a bright future ahead of them." It was very bright indeed, shining on slave markets
from the same Libya, after Freedom was brought to it through the barrel of US-NATO-Israeli guns and explosions of bombs:

Libya was the testing ground for the Western political and media class to fabricate an atrocity propaganda rape hoax to justify and launder the destruction of an entire nation. As with Israel, they used a rape hoax to cause and do actual mass rape:

now that Assad is gone, the actual planned mass violence is going to be activated, targeted at those who do not fit in the ideal worldview of the fascist proxies. The Kurds are first, and have already been targeted since this project began last week. It's going to get a lot worse
note that as Kurds are being killed and ethnically cleansed by the Turkish armed and funded fascist proxies, all the pseudo-radicals in the West who made them their symbol of heroism and bravery went quiet. Because they no longer fit in The Greater Cause. The purest scum alive
the fascist proxies, who are made up of a coalition of war lord gangs funded by various US-Israeli puppet regimes, from the Turks to the Saudis, UAE, Egypt, Qatar, will soon begin their civil wars over which of their hosts should get which parts of Syria to rob and exploit

a Libyan who bought into US-NATO-Israeli-Saudi-UAE propaganda and took up arms against Ghaddafi thinking he was actually fighting for freedom, democracy and "true Islam", reflects on what he did after his fall: "If Ghaddafi were alive now, I would fight for him." Syria soon.
when this inevitably happens and Syria descends into endless civil war between rival fascist proxies, all those pseudo-radical "leftist" scum, the epic "true Sunni Muslims", think tankers paid by the UAE, Qatar, Saudis, Turkey, Israel, will go quiet again. Mission accomplished.
just some of the scum who will go quiet again after pocketing the cash from various US-NATO-Israeli "Arab shield" fascist genocidal slave regimes of Saudi, UAE, Qatar, Turkey, Jordan, Egypt, Morocco, who magically don't require "freedom" and "true Islam":

Happy birthday to Noam Chomsky. Here's a compilation of him exposing Western media class "journalists" for the depraved propagandists they are:
a Zionist asks Chomsky what he thinks about the statement that Israel should not exist. His response:
Chomsky's response when asked if Hezbollah are terrorists:
