@afneil Intervention? Your fucking bourgeois media-political class has smoothed the way for this fascist, imperialist, thick-headed bludgeon. All he does is say out loud what your more articulate, image-savvy, preferred leaders dare not say. All of you... reaction all down the line.

President Trump threatens to wipe out Iranian civilization if Tehran doesn’t cede to his demands by 8pm New York time (1am London) tonight (Tuesday). “A whole civilization will die tonight, never to be brought back again. I don’t want that to happen, but it probably will,” Trump writes on his Truth Social platform. Is there anybody, any group capable of staging an intervention in the White House?

@JamieMetzl You wanna read a bit about your party's history, you fucking right wing weirdo

As a Democrat, let me beep clear: Our party will lose all legitimacy if we do not clearly reject the bigotry, intolerance, and anti-Americanism of the far left.

@DavidKrae @resistancestan @pawelwargan Do you deny that the US has consistently worked/colluded with and supported fascists (including Nazis), plus theocratic, authoritarian, ethnonationalists and religious fundamentalists in order to prevent communism, and even mild social democracy, in countries all over the world?

@resistancestan @pawelwargan Nonsense. The United States liberated itself from a world of slavery and genocide. It sustains itself by promoting trade + modern democracy, and standing against genocidal slavery ideologies like Communism. Communism, Fascism, Theocracy, all forms of Authoritarianism are evil.

The claim — long advanced by communists — that the United States is the Fourth Reich was never metaphorical. The US is the nucleus of world fascism.

@bulldoglegend @guanchewarrior @CraigMurrayOrg and..... there's the block!

@bulldoglegend @guanchewarrior @CraigMurrayOrg They've killed far more than that, and not even for protesting- just for existing. The trouble is you don't view them as 'their own people', and not even as people. You're part of a sick, propagandised, ethnonationalist, racist cult. The world needs ridding of it.

It is an extraordinary thing, that as Israel's crimes rise to incredible levels of intensity and atrocity, so do official accusations of "anti-semitism" against ordinary folk.

@Daytobehappy What were those buildings called? What is the relationship between that name (btw the naming wasn't happenstance) and peace? Because as much as I hate religious fundamentalism of any kind, I know that Islam has much greater alignment with peace than US Imperialism does.

Prince William called Islam a religion of peace. My mother would love to disagree but her remains were in that building coming down!

@JonasSpriester1 @ireallyhateyou fucking try-hard bell end

@ireallyhateyou Well, there’s a fine line, which we all know, and he’s crossing it after just one paragraph. “Our hearts bled for the Lebanese and we hated the Israelis…” (I sympathize!) shortly afterwards he’s writing about [the jews] as a race. I call this racism

Wow. Everyone should read this 1983 article by Roald Dahl. Every word of it. It's literally the same fucking shit as now, with the same kind of impunity, only now it's even much worse. He called it. He fucking called it and they just ignored him and called him an antisemite.

@bulldoglegend @guanchewarrior @CraigMurrayOrg No. Israel is way, way, orders of magnitude worse. That you can't see that shows that you're merely thinking how it must be to live under the Israeli regime for its privileged ethnic group, and not those who it is systematically murdering.

@Our_Lev @guanchewarrior @CraigMurrayOrg I’ve never said Israel hasn’t committed crimes or is perfect but compared to the Iranian regime they are rank amateurs in the despot scale

@bulldoglegend @guanchewarrior @CraigMurrayOrg and there you go... that you're seemingly not arsed that the Zionists routinely and systematically mobilise and weaponise something as serious and dangerous as antisemitism just to deflect criticism is simply astounding. You're making the world less safe for Jews. Well done.

@Our_Lev @guanchewarrior @CraigMurrayOrg LOL I think you will find there hasn’t been a government in history that doesn’t try to delegitimise criticism and the fact that you highlight it as a Zionist tactic is in itself a form of racism because you don’t appear to be applying the same standard to anyone else.

@onlyasiam @rosendo_joe From Konrad Heiden's Hitler biography: “The labor movement did not repel him because it was led by Jews; the Jews repelled him because they led the labor movement... It was not Rothschild, the capitalist, but Karl Marx, the socialist, who kindled Adolf Hitler’s anti-Semitism”

@rosendo_joe Eradicate Judaism to eradicate Marxism ? How so ? Did Jews not largely constitute the ruling class in Germany, as they do today in the west ? It seems to me Hitler merely wanted to supplant the jewish ruling class with his own..thus his antipathy towards socialism.

For years I took the lesson from the Holocaust was that Jew-hatred - mislabeled antisemtism- is dangerous because the Holocaust Hitler perpetrated showed where Jew-hatred could lead. But Hitler wanted to eradicate Judaism to eradicate Marxism. Thread

@VenturCommunist @DavidWSWSarts @BlankReportCard From what he says above, I'd say yes he does think that.

@DavidWSWSarts @BlankReportCard You think Deutscher was an apologist for Stalinism?

Isaac Deutscher (1907) – Politically an apologist for Stalinism, but “there is no disputing the fact" that his three-volume biography of Trotsky (1954-1963) “provided thousands of radicalized youth … with their initial introduction to the life and ideas of Leon Trotsky.”

@bulldoglegend @guanchewarrior @CraigMurrayOrg I doubt we'll agree on much more than that, but good to see that honesty. There is antisemitism directed at Israel, but that gets disingenuously conflated with valid political & moral opposition to the very bad things Israel does. It's a Zionist tactic to delegitimise criticism.

@Our_Lev @guanchewarrior @CraigMurrayOrg I certainly agree with that part of it yes but nowhere comparable to the racism directed at it. Unfortunately those type of laws are prevalent in many countries especially in that area of the world

@bulldoglegend @guanchewarrior @CraigMurrayOrg So you agree that Israel is a racist state, because it has laws, institutions and policies that treat people of different ethnic groups differently?

@Our_Lev @guanchewarrior @CraigMurrayOrg Simply put if you apply different standards to different races it’s racism. People are quick to shout genocide despite 2 million people being alive in Gaza. No one shouted genocide about Dresden or Hiroshima and they killed many more civilians. That is different standards

@DanielFooksArt Is your position that Covid was made up? That the virus didn't exist, or wasn't dangerous? Or is it that a real virus/pandemic was used by the ruling class as a chance for a psyop? Was/is part of the psyop to eventually downplay the dangers of Covid? Aided by libertarians?

Some on the Left only understand the actions of the ruling class when they are embedded in imperialism. That is why most on the Left didn't see Covid as a ruling class psyop.

@bulldoglegend @guanchewarrior @CraigMurrayOrg The point is that antisemitism is still a real thing that happens and still needs to be stamped out, but the deceitful efforts of Zionists to mis-use the term to defend its filthy, abominable ideology and actions, has severely undercut genuine efforts to tackle it. Well done.

@Our_Lev @guanchewarrior @CraigMurrayOrg No racism is still racism you cannot invoke more racism to nullify it

@bulldoglegend @guanchewarrior @CraigMurrayOrg It used to, but the Zionists have ruined the term, completely devalued it with their disingenuous weaponization of it - a tactic that has become absolutely necessary for them as the reality of their crimes and filthy ideology have become impossible to hide.

@guanchewarrior @CraigMurrayOrg No it means being racist

@MHTruthUltra Such a shame you seem to have fallen for the right wing, neo-Nazi, anti-communist, antisemitic historical revisionism about the Bolshevik Revolution. You're on the right lines with the US Imperialism stuff - it's noticeable you omit the likes of The Jakarta Method - wonder why?

Here’s my Forbidden Reading List of 200+ books that they never wanted you to find (it’s free)! booksbehindborders.org/p/the-forbidde…

We can't pretend we're the "good guys" when we starve an island full of millions of people (Cuba), destroy fishermen at will (Venezuela), bomb schools (Iran), and support a regime that does the same to their neighbors (Israel). We’re not the good guys. We never have been.

@lugaricano You mean Trump says the quiet part out loud. Deluded idiot.

Many of us, liberal Europeans, spent decades pushing back against the European extreme left's cartoon version of America ( it's all oil/ imperialism/getting rich at the expense of others) and then one dumb administration walks in and performs the caricature to perfection.

@DeepValueInv @stalinruu @sopjap Or stopped coming because they had weapons? Compare North Korea & Iran... Attacks did come (see Russian post-revolution 'civil war' - invasion by 14 nations). Plenty of internal problems too of course - Stalinist oppression & bureaucracy, partly due to external threats.

@stalinruu @sopjap It could, they just spent far too much on weapons against an attack that wasn’t ever coming.

Just like most things, valuing what you have is a social phenomenon. Your mindset about the worth of your living standards is shaped by interacting outside factors. Capitalist propaganda attempted to convince people in socialist societies that what they had was valueless—nothing—and that they were lacking compared to capitalism. So they devalued the gains of socialism, which primed the population to give up those gains, having been made to feel it was all worthless. Of course, many people didn't feel that way, but they were sidelined. Ultimately, the "influencers" who saw their world through Western propaganda won out. All those who rejected this false and facile narrative—that socialism was a failure and they had nothing—were sidelined and disenfranchised. Only through thoughtfully observing museum displays like this, or talking to someone who actually lived under communism, can everyday people find the cracks in the dominant anti-communist ideology.

@williamkane1962 @DanielM42092441 @UtdBeforFergie Putin's just one of a number of national leaders who came to power largely due to the conditions created by US Empire-led social & economic destruction, who went from being feted by western leaders to being demonised as monsters. All because they stemmed the outflow of capital.

@Our_Lev @DanielM42092441 @UtdBeforFergie I've lost me place and thread. 😂 Anyway, Russia could do better than Putin, I have no doubt about it. I'll take Putin over ANY western leader though.The bastards at MI5 are probably reading this you know? Hey, I have said nothing wrong and am always careful with my words. 😂

Couple of United ladies from back in the day. Imagine being a granny now and seeing yourself again @UtdBeforFergie
