THREAD. Today I decided to browse Weibo, one of the biggest social media sites in China (600 million active users).

I was stunned by the rabid amount of anti-Semitism and anti-Western hatred on the site. Check out this post with 4500 likes: Selection of top comments on Chinese social media giant Weibo when it comes to Israel.
''Israeli Jews are demons in human form.''
''Hitler is completely whitewashed.''
''Kill alL israeli Nazis.''
''Looking around the world, is there any decent religion that dares support what the Jews do? Evil, evil!''

An Israeli dentist saved Hamas leader Yahya Sinwar's life when he was desperately ill in Israeli prison.

Sinwar returned to Gaza in 2011 as part of a hostage exchange deal and ultimately planned the October 7 massacre. The Israeli dentist's nephew was taken as a hostage. nytimes.com/2024/05/26/wor… “During the day you would treat them and at night you come home and cry,” he said. “That happened many, many nights. Once there was a suicide attack near where my parents lived. Sixteen Jews were killed. Who would not cry at night? When you see a small baby being lifted, who wouldn’t cry?”

Thread on Refaat Alareer. I strongly disagree with his past statements defending October 7 and describing all Israeli civilians as combatants.

1. Refaat attacked the left wing Prime Minister of Nepal for condemning the shooting of Nepalis and other civilians on October 7 2. Refaat Alareer condemned Ilhan Omar and compared her to “an Israeli Nazi” because she denounced Hamas hostage taking and murder of civilians on October 7.

This is despite Ilhan Omar’s long record of criticising the Israeli government and supporting Palestinians

At the Mearsheimer event in Brisbane Australia, I asked John Mearsheimer why anybody should ever listen to him about Ukraine ever again considering he has been wrong about Ukraine every single time and now quotes Russian military bloggers like “Big Serge,” he just dodged response and claimed he has been proven correct in Ukraine because Ukraine is still suffering against Russia.

I’ll try get video up as soon as I get a hold of it.

Text of my full question:

In your infamous 2015 University of Chicago lecture, you dismissed the idea that Russia would ever try to ‘’conquer Ukraine’’ — arguing ‘’Putin is much too smart for that.’’

Then, in the lead up to the 2022 invasion, you argued, and I quote you word for word: ‘’What the Russians are going to do is CRUSH the Ukrainians. They’re going to bring out the big guns. They’re going to turn places like Kyiv and other cities in Ukraine into rubble. It will be like Fallujah, Mosul, Grozny.’’ You argued Western intervention would be pointless because Russia would level Ukraine and go nuclear against the West.

Then, in an interview with Chinese Communist Party controlled media outlet CGTN on February 23rd this year, you said, and again, I quote you word for word: ‘’Conventional wisdom in the West has long been that Vladimir Putin was an imperialist and he was determined to conquer Ukraine and make it part of a Greater Russia. There is NO evidence to support that.’’

So first, we were told that Russia and Putin will NEVER try conquer Ukraine.

Then you told us that Russia will CRUSH the Ukrainians.

Then, when Russia invades but fails to take Kyiv, you argue there is NO evidence Russia ever wanted to conquer Ukraine.

Your claim that there is NO evidence for that Putin is an imperialist completely beggars belief.

ONE, Putin claims Ukraine is not a country and has never existed as a country. He openly compares himself to Peter the Great while musing on territorial conquest. Here is a Putin quote: ‘’What was Peter doing? Taking back and reinforcing. That’s what he did. And it looks like it fell on us to take back and reinforce as well.’’ And while he muses about taking back Russian land, Russian military recruitment ads show Russian soldiers talking about the flats they will buy and occupy in Kyiv and Odessa.

TWO, Russian forces have systematically executed all Ukrainian cultural and civic leaders in every Ukrainian town that they have occupied. They leave behind mass graves, torture chambers and death pits.

THREE, Putin was indicted by the International Criminal Court for forcibly transferring hundreds of thousands of Ukrainian children to Russia to be raised as Russian. Some three million Ukrainians have been deported to Russia, this is an act of genocide, an attempt to wipe out Ukraine as a nation and incorporate its children into Russia. For comparison: Nazi Germany deported about 200,000 Polish children for assimilation during the entire Second World War.

FOUR, Russia targets civilian energy infrastructure in Ukraine with the goal of making the country uninhabitable and ungovernable. They spent months last year boasting that they would freeze millions of Ukrainians to death.

So, my question. John, You have been wrong over and over and over again on Ukraine, blatantly wrong. You hang out with Victor Orban and quote crazy sleazy Russian military bloggers named “BIG SERGE” in your writings.
You’ve claimed to the New Yorker that Putin has never lied to other world leaders, you even said that Hitler only ever lied once or twice to other world leaders? You’ve burnt your credibility, why should we take anything you say seriously ever again?
He wouldn’t properly intellectually engage with my questions so I had to tell him the truth

Jackson Hinkle is now the 6th biggest Twitter account by reach, performing 1637 times better than expected for an account with same follower count. 1637 TIMES. He was speaking at Russia’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs last month, we know who backs him. But why does Elon boost him?

Jackson claims to care about Palestinian lives but supports Wagner, organisation responsible for the Moura Massacre in Mali, murdering up to 500 civillians and burying them in mass graves.

Wow. I did not know Australian Prime Minister Anthony Albanese gave a bizarro pro-Assad speech at a “Hands Off Syria” gala dinner in June 2013. He described the Assad regime as a “sophisticated, secular state” fighting “religious fundamentalism.” Within two months of Albanese’s June 2013 speech endorsing the Assad regime, Bashar launched his hideous Gouta chemical attack that murdered thousands of civilians.

Igor ''Strelkov'' Girkin was arrested today by the Kremlin for speaking against Putin. The media describe him as a ''blogger.'' But perhaps no one other than Putin himself bears as much personal responsibility for the war in Ukraine. Thread on Girkin and his war crimes Girkin is best known for his role as the commander in charge of the shootdown of Malaysia Airlines Flight 17. Girkin was found guilty in absentia by Dutch courts and convicted for the murder of 298 people. Girkin himself stated: ''I feel a moral responsibility for these deaths''

More evidence Wagner PMC have gone WOKE. Yevgeny Prigozhin has taken to Telegram to announce he will host Sam Smith for a special performance of “Unholy” in the halls of the Kremlin should he take power later this week. The woke mind virus takes another victim @stillgray please… https://t.co/reUwCWghFKtwitter.com/i/web/status/1…
Yevgeny Prigozhin has also confirmed he will host drag queen story time on Red Square and make Bud Light the official beer of the Kremlin. How much did the CIA pay him?

We now have ID on six of the nine pro-Russian fascists at Sydney Town Hall. James Walters has Nazi tattoos, George Jameson is linked to Nazi associates of the Christchurch massacre shooter, Bill Milic is a Serb fascist Chetnik supporter. Artem Kozmin may have fought in Donbass.… twitter.com/i/web/status/1… Bill Milic, Serb ultranationalist Chetnik supporter (Nazi collaborators during World War II)

Can you help identify Russian Z war supporters at Sydney Town Hall event? Please reach out to me if you know them, I will publish their names and identities on my YouTube channel so we can protect Ukrainians in Australia. These people support the rape and murder of Ukrainians I am not afraid of Russian Z thugs and terrorists.
Photography by @Chriscoveries, my attempts to identify these men are not endorsed by him.

Adelaide University Student Union Councillor Habibah Jaghoori celebrates the murder of a 6 year old Jewish child because he was Israeli. Unbelievably feral This hypocrite claims to support Palestinians as a “revolutionary socialist” yet she defends the reactionary regime in Iran that uses rape as a weapon of war against protesters. She supports Qassem Soleimani who helped Assad starve thousands of Palestinian refugees in Syria.

Pro-Putin Russian thug Simeon Boikov AKA “Aussie Cossack” films himself pushing an elderly Ukrainian man down the stairs at a rally in Sydney, smashing his head into the pavement. Boikov fought for Russian battalions in Eastern Ukraine and has close ties with Australian neo-Nazis Thread on Simeon Boikov AKA “Aussie Cossack” - here he is pictured with Greek Neo-Nazi criminal organisation Golden Dawn, as well as Igor Vsevolodovich Girkin, the killer found guilty for the murder of 298 people on MH17 including 27 Australians.

I am laughing at the CCP propagandists already spreading lies about a “Western backed colour revolution.” I decided to do a little bit of citizen journalism by actually speaking to the Chinese students protesting in Brisbane Australia last night and here’s what I found: Protesters were overwhelmingly from mainland China and interestingly almost all of them were living in China up until just a few months ago before coming to Australia as students. So overwhelmingly these protesters have experienced Xi era China and COVID Zero policies first hand

In light of the escalating CCP harassment campaign against me including multiple fake bomb threats, we are appealing my case against former Brisbane Chinese Consul General Xu Jie at the Brisbane District Court on October 11. Seeking protection orders from court In other news, the great barrister Tony Morris KC is making progress on my Supreme Court case against the University of Queensland for expelling me as a student at the direction of Chinese state media

PLEASE HELP. Yesterday I held small peaceful human rights protest with Uyghur flag outside London Chinese Embassy. Chinese Embassy reported me to police as BOMB THREAT, they produced fake email ''This is Drew Pavlou today I will blow up the Embassy for Uyghurs - regards Drew.’’ ABSURDLY FAKE but British police held me for 23 hours, I was held incommunicado with no ability to tell anybody where I was, I was denied access to lawyer for more than 10 hours, they claimed my lawyers were not available but my lawyers called the police dozens of times.

Boris had the courage to largely repudiate failed austerity policies of the Cameron years, turned his back on Thatcherism, backed activist government to improve the lot of poorer Britons, backed the Ukrainians. Boris over any other Tory any day of the week. Cancel me I said it

https://twitter.com/howardmortman/status/1549744582832914433

Just read through editorials about Boris in establishment organs like The Economist, they hated him because he wasn’t a fiscal conservative. They are now utterly triumphant about the fact that all remaining Tory leadership contenders repudiate this and back “small government”

BREAKING: I held up a sign saying “Fuck Xi Jinping” while campaigning in the seat of Bennelong in Sydney with our candidate @KyinzomDhongdue and Chinese ultra-nationalists assaulted me and an independent filmmaker. We are at the police station making statement on assault now This is only incomplete footage, it doesn’t show the worst parts of the assault because it was chaotic

Thread: I’ve lost more than 1000 followers since I voiced my opposition to Trump. Friends and family pressure me, telling me to just shut my mouth because I’m “sabotaging” myself. But I simply can’t stay silent because my conscience cries out against Trump’s cruelties. Earlier this year, at the age of just 20, I was faced with a similar choice. I opened my email inbox and there it was: UQ had sent me a whopping 186 page charge sheet outlining the case for my expulsion. They’d spent hundreds of thousands putting me under intense surveillance.

I don’t know why people think there is some grand psy-op CIA conspiracy to lie about what is happening to Uyghurs. You can (right now!) personally cross-check publicly accessible Chinese government documents from Baidu about “Xinjiang re-education camps” against Google Earth 1/9 It’s good to be naturally sceptical of what any government tells you, so you don’t actually have to buy what the U.S. government and its allies tell you about what China is doing to Uyghurs. There is such an abundance of evidence, you can research this all entirely yourself! 2/9

I oppose the existence of Confucius Institutes on campuses while the Chinese state pursues genocide against Uyghur Muslims. Millions languish in concentration camps in the largest internment of a people based on ethnicity since the Holocaust. To me, the fact my university maintains ties with the Chinese state and allows a Confucius Institute to operate on our campus while this genocide occurs is one of the greatest moral outrages of our time. This complicity means our hands are stained with the blood of Uyghurs.
