d-RLY?

Seems that if a nation has gotten to the point of needing to send people to a whole different nation due to prison overcrowding. Then it really should be a crucial time to change laws on shit that exist to feed the prison industrial complex. But I am not shocked that the nation that was shipping people to Australia originally for the same reasons is falling back on doing it. Though I am kind of shocked that they aren’t just funding the US complex to build prisons here to send them to.

Would be nice if they also left NATO as part of joining BRICS.

The Palestinian resistance groups have been saying very clearly that they welcome support like how Hezbollah, Yemen, Iran, and the Iraqi groups have been providing. But that they do not want other nations sending in troops. That they will be seen as an occupying force and will be treated as one. Though I might be conflating them entering Gaza and West Bank. So maybe the other areas that are “Israel” based on the 1968 maps? Seems like another chance for them to make a stop into PKK areas on the way?

The over-reliance on making so many weapons basically self-automated instead of actually needing humans further magnifies how little lives matter and how much more profits do. Yet we have seen historically many times over how these over-hyped systems/weapons sold at higher and higher costs are made pointless by real humans with “dumb” systems/weapons. Look at the NVA/Viet Cong, Iraqi resistance, Taliban, PKK, and so many other “less advanced” fighters were able to show how all the tech didn’t matter. The “advanced” shit is all made to supposedly fight “modern battlefields” that we haven’t really seen be reality. Even the actual military leaders over the years have admitted as much.

All the “modern” shit just makes it easier to remove the humanity of conflict. It is much easier to kill lots of people if done through the eyes of a computer. Not to mention the false sense of assumed victory by some default. If we did see these “modern” wars with all sides using the shit the Military Industrial Complex hypes up so much. Then we would just see just mass destruction and death caused by computers fighting computers. Pretty sure nukes would be used really quick too.

The ROK has been at least trying to play things smart with regards to keeping much cooler heads than the US over the past 8yrs. Even if things have regressed on their end, I think that they aren’t likely to push for making their own nukes. The DPRK knows that having them and using them are two very different things. Having them means the US and ROK can’t just attack out of nowhere without a real fucking response. But using them means that it would likely lead to all nuclear nations unloading. As far as Japan is concerned, they are one of the most anti-nuke nations period given that they are the only nation to have seen the results and horror.

The US so far seems to have the most trigger happy assholes that default to “just nuke 'em and no more issues” for just about every geopolitical issue ever since we used them. So far we have lucked out that the presidents that were overseeing the initial push to build so many of them woke up to the death cult of war hawks. The others either saw that if the US were to use them first, then it would mean we would lose the war of optics. Or they happened to be in charge while less tension on that level was going on.

And of course Reagan literally seems to have only learned how truly horrible and fucked shit would be after watching a made for TV movie about the horrors of a post-nuclear war world would be like. Better than nothing but it really pisses me off how so many US leaders both A: acted like the USSR couldn’t possibly be upping their shit based on real fear of the US just doing what we keep doing in just attacking/invading other nations. And B: honestly just seem to think that it is okay for US to put them everywhere but any other nation doing so is “acts of aggression.”

CEOs need to be taken out and any and all parachute deals they signed should be voided if they harm (mentally and/or physically) workers. And that should mean that when shit like Boeing happens where many more lives are also impacted (many even sadly paying). Then that CEO should be executed and so should the other C letter titles AND the entire board of major shareholders (and best believe the lawmakers that took money from them also should catch that fate).

The legal charges that would also be brought by the cops/legal system would be the real punishment likely (depending on the state and whatnot). The school doesn’t really need to do anything, and I am guessing it is more a fallback or show of denouncing someone. Though I agree that it is odd that they don’t outright expel given the nature of the other examples given. Maybe it has to do with being a public school or something? Or maybe suspension until after the legal results? Idk.

I think they are slightly playing up the “assault rifles” bit though, as I imagine that the same suspension would be applied to any long rifle or shotgun (maybe even pistols tbh). I agree with the overall point of drawing attention to how incorrect the punishments are being applied to the pro-Palestine protestors. As shit is very very different from someone or a group of people showing up armed to a school campus. As I imagine the people more likely to jump to doing that would most certainly be the pro-Israel no matter what crowd. Though it might be getting to the point of pro-Palestine/anti-genocide folks having protection. At minimum access off campus. As the right most certainly does, and would likely be following people home.

The obvious choice would be to stay of course. But the offer with the chance of wiping debit in the even they didn’t want to stay gives a “safety net” vibe. Puts a nice outline with a goal of taking out two birds with one stone. And if a student doesn’t want to stay even with having their original debts, it doesn’t prevent them from still getting a degree without owing extra. Some people like to know they have options (even if the options are in most cases dumb)

Kind of not sure if this is actually just a really really weird pro-IOF propaganda thing. As it says that only 25% of US interceptors worked, while also that around 90% of IOF ones did. Given the site, seems like IOF government propaganda machine is doing the normal uber-nationalist thing. Downplaying the effectiveness of even diehard supporting nations as “cute but dumb” and the nationalist hawks as “the real fighters of true justice” or whatever.

Though I also would believe that even with it being Israel the weapons are being supplied to, would still not be the “full version” as to not allow enemies to know the real effectiveness of (in this case) the US tech. Pretty sure that most high-tech weapons that are sold outside the originating nations are very different than the ones said nation actually fields. Or at least gimped in such ways that allow the “full versions” to take out the gimped ones. Then again, I also imagine that Israel has many more spies inside the US military and all companies that make up the US’s military industrial complex. Which means they also have the shit needed to make their own copies that have the extra benefit of constant data and testing to make a better version with real-world shit

I am not “pro-USA #1 ra ra ra!!!” and very much sure that the "effectiveness of our weapons are generally very inflated. Just like all massive private/for-profit weapons manufacturing nations do. Just finding the propaganda machines of two deeply involved allies painting the other as “lesser” to be both odd to actually see, and kind of hilarious at the same time.

They have been stopping a lot more of them over at least the last six months or year. I think we are just shown a lot of the ones that do make it through by media that wants to make sure that Ukraine looks like they are doing better than they are. Much like the “Iron Dome”, if enough are sent over, plenty will eventually hit the target. With all the drones having cameras, they will have great footage of the ones that make it to their targets, and can play those on repeat for media and social media. A numbers game, they are able to send a fuckton of cheap converted consumer models.

You don’t inspire hope and support by showing the L’s. Just like how Israel is making sure to downplay their own loses. And of course making sure to buy off support from for-profit media and politicians that matter. That way the narrative is kept as being “innocent and pure of heart Israel is just protecting themselves” and that Iran is being the “aggressor by their unprovoked missile and drone strikes”. While completely acting like Israel didn’t blow up the Iranian embassy first. Or how Israel is actively bombing other nations on a daily basis.
