right-wingers: "having your bank accounts frozen is tyranny! they would never treat the left like this!"

meanwhile:
remember when feds extrajudicially executed an alleged antifa member on direct orders of the president, who then publicly boasted about it on live national TV and at his rallies? all the people crying about 1984 and fascism now were cheering him on

feds literally killed a guy on direct orders of the president. pulled up on him, killed him w/ a hail of bullets that narrowly missed a child and other bystanders, then lied about it. this is actual fascist shit, but magaite right-wing freaks love it bc they're not targeted by it
if you were cheering on this shit and will do so again happily when it targets people you consider to be sub-human, don't be surprised when your rage-whining about tyranny and fascism doesn't garner much sympathy from people who have actual principles

"cops love leftist protesters, they treat them with kids gloves!" get the fuck out of here you snowflake piece of shit. your depraved ideology props up the very system that is set up to target the left, which is why we actually want to dismantle it

cops were intentionally shooting out protesters' eyes as these fucking chud pieces of shit were cheering them on

the US is besieging afghanistan and imposing mass hunger and death on its population. they are in the process of killing more afghans than in the entirety of the war. this is their way of punishing afghans for not wanting to be conquered
a surprisingly good BBC report yesterday on the situation in afghanistan now. the US has frozen (a euphemism for stolen) 10 billion dollars in afghanistan's assets, and is imposing economic terror on the population, a form of sadistic, depraved collective punishment
afghanistan is but one of the many places the US is imposing this economic terror campaign on, which has killed hundreds of thousands over the past years, and continues to kill more. yemenis, afghans and others are not starving, they are *being starved*

"I remember WMDs in iraq, I remember kabul is not going to fall"

this is how an actual journalist should treat all statements by the US empire's propagandists
the reporter in that clip is matt lee from the AP, who is one of the only actually good journalists I've seen working at a mainstream outlet. here he was calling out jen psaki under obama:

another great moment by matt lee calling out jen psaki's absurd propaganda. thanks to @GranadosCeja for the reference

joe rogan is a half billionaire, wealthier than all the reporters at CNN/MSNBC/NYT combined, yet he's framed as a working-class hero bc he's a bald roided up white guy in his 50s who wears t-shirts and jeans w/ center-right to far right views on social issues
when you actually examine his views, he's no different from what you find in conservative to liberal media institutions, from fox to CNN/MSNBC. but there's nothing professional media class hacks love more than presenting themselves as edgy outsiders

the framing of joe rogan as the common man by media class hacks reminds me of that joe the plumber guy, who also turned out to be a fraud, cosplaying as working-class when he was an upper middle class business owner. rogan is that guy on steroids (literally and figuratively)

*black person does a crime*

Libs Of Tik Tok: "OMG LOOK AT THIS LIBERAL"
the person who runs that account is doing standard crypto-nazi willie horton agitprop in between trying to get people fired by contacting their employer, and all the anti-"woke" liberals are like "lol this my fav account"
that scumbag also loves targeting homeless people. just the most cruel, vindictive piece of shit imaginable, and all the professional media class hacks who can't stop whining about the supposed cruelty of "sjw cultural marxist cancel culture" lap that shit up

renowned international relations scholar john mearsheimer explains how the US is responsible for the current ukraine crisis, and how absurd it is for anyone in the media and political class to deny this obvious truism
in the full lecture mearsheimer goes into great detail on the background causes, which are basically that the US, despite promises and agreements with the Russians to not expand NATO, went ahead with pushing it anyway, knowing what the response would be

I was a reading a piece on the cold war yesterday and was struck by a passage that echoes what mearsheimer says in the original clip. The US encircled the entire USSR w/ forward strategic bases, but when soviets tried the same w/ just one the US threatened to wipe out humanity Image

happy birthday to aaron swartz. relentlessly harassed and driven to suicide by the state for making scientific knowledge publicly accessible to all. here he talks about why copyright law is so destructive

aaron swartz's guerilla open access manifesto: "There is no justice in following unjust laws. It's time to come into the light and, in the grand tradition of civil disobedience, declare our opposition to this private theft of public culture." ImageImage
aaron swartz on how he became radicalized: "once I questioned the school I was in, I questioned the society that built the school, I questioned the businesses the schools were training people for, I questioned the government that set up this whole structure"
