I don’t think people around the world realize how bad the attack on Lebanon was today. It’s BAD. Like 9/11 BAD. Hospitals are overflowing and do not have enough blood. We still don’t know what the death toll is.
This is TERRORISM. Pure and Simple.
April 8. Never forget.

Ask an American about the bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki.
A substantial portion will tell you it was necessary.
Tragic, but necessary.
It ended the war.
It saved lives.
Hard choices in impossible circumstances.
Now ask them how they would feel if another country had done it to an American city.
Watch the framework collapse in real time.
Suddenly "necessary" is not a category that applies.
Suddenly there are no hard choices and impossible circumstances.
Suddenly it is simply: a crime. An act of war. An atrocity.
This is not hypocrisy in the ordinary sense.
This is a two-tiered moral universe so deeply internalized that most people living inside it cannot see the structure at all.
Violence done to Americans is atrocity by definition.
Violence done by Americans requires context. Requires understanding. Requires a discussion of the strategic situation.
This is the psychological furniture.
This is what empire builds inside the people who benefit from it.
And it is almost invisible from the inside.

@nosoup4knowles They could just move somewhere else. No need to die.

Candace is calling for a whole civilization to die.

If Netanyahu was so evil himself alone, why does he keep getting elected as Israel's Prime Minister?

@cmclymer There's an old lady who lives at the end of my road who's been causing a bit of trouble, I wonder if he could have a word with her too. Maybe send a few tomahawk missiles over to her house.

Trump threatened the Vatican with military force.
I've said that out loud to myself five or six times now, and I still can't quite process it.

@Romudeth Why won't people like to read it? The earth is enough, until it's not.

A lot of people won’t like to read this, but it’s true. Mathematically speaking, there has to be other intelligent life forms in the universe, but they, like us, are likely locked to their home systems.

We're not going to travel beyond the solar system, according to Leonard Susskind. And neither are aliens, coming to visit us. We may not be alone, but we are stuck here for, essentially forever. 1. The nearest star is 4.24 light years away. The fastest spacecraft ever built would require 6,600 years to get there. 2. Surely we can just build faster spacecraft. The problem is to get to anywhere close to the speed of light, we need exponentially more energy. 3. Chemical rockets will just not work. Even fusion rockets won't work. Even 10% of the speed of light is not achievable. The Tsiolkovsky Rocket Equation prevents it. 4. Interstellar dust becomes hand grenades when traveling anywhere close to the speed of light. Ships break. 5. Space radiation will kill us over the time need to travel interstellar distances. Impossible to protect without massive shields, which require massive energy to accelerate and de-accelerate.

@TomerStrolight @dotkrueger Well they do say ignorance is bliss.
English
@Finkelbott @dotkrueger Not the least bit concerned about either.

You are a disgusting antisemite who champions modern day Nazis in the form of Islamic fundamentalists. You call Hamas your “friends” and “champions of social justice.” They are theocratic racists who want to exterminate every Jew on earth and engage in sexual assault as part of their arsenal of racist war crimes. You are a racist dog. Own it you scum. Plus you laid a wreathe on the graves of those who orchestrated the Munich massacre - more antisemitic terrorists who tortured, murdered and castrayed Jews. Own the fact that you are a champion of modern day Nazis and that you will go down in the history books as Britains biggest advocate of racist politics since Mosely.

Kanye West has been banned from entering the UK to play Wireless Festival, as it would have been terrible to have a prominent public figure going round Finsbury Park condoning antisemitism

@TomerStrolight @dotkrueger Despite the threat of nuclear war and climate collapse? The future is not as certain as you might think.
English
@Finkelbott @dotkrueger Absolutely. There’s even some people alive right now who will survive the next hundred years.
