🚨🇺🇸 ALERTE INFO – Un avion de chasse américain a été attaqué par un requin dans le détroit d’Ormuz

@PaulOfThuringia @DontNukeAnyone @deculturation You could do all of those things + speak some Chinese but not be immersed in Chinese culture, so I think it’s different than being raised in it every day. I’m grateful my mom taught my Portuguese before I ever learned English, I def feel Brazilian even if I’m more USAican
English
@goaliegm13 @DontNukeAnyone @deculturation so someone who eats chinese food, listens to chinese music, and visited china becomes chinese?

I'd like to pose an interesting question to Latin Americans.
Who is more Latin American?
An immigrant to LATAM who speaks the language, who is integrated into the society and culture of their country,
Or a US American with Mexican ancestry who doesn't even speak Spanish?
English
@PaulOfThuringia @DontNukeAnyone @deculturation Many cases here in the U.S. of parents (especially South/East Asian ones from what I’ve seen) who choose not to raise their kids speaking a different language bc of the social hardship they face at school. But still eat the food daily, hear the music, visit the country, etc

@goaliegm13 @DontNukeAnyone @deculturation raised in a culture without being able to speak to the majority of those in that culture sounds like you weren't raised in that culture to begin with
and assimilating into it would mean being able to communicate with members of that culture. ergo, speaking their language
English
@DontNukeAnyone @deculturation I think it's fair to say you can be raised in a culture without speaking a language most people in that culture speak, but since it's just a culture, it's also unfair to say someone can't assimilate into it
English
@deculturation is claiming I'm "stealing" his culture by making fun of him for not speaking Spanish. But how is it his culture? Just because of who his parents are? How is it not much more MY culture, given that I live it and he does not?
Is it really just blood quantum?

Western Marxism will ultimately never be able to fathom third world struggles and the nature of protracted national liberation projects. History teaches us, that in the global south, class struggle must be subordinated to a national project of sovereignty and development.
English
@bocnj1 @ettingermentum That part is because we have strong beliefs in things like not letting the entity flatten Palestine and Lebanon, M4A, and doing something (anything!) about climate change. These are not just niche leftwing projects, they're in the interest of all humans. Your list don't want that
English
@goaliegm13 @ettingermentum Ok but she has a credible electoral record, having connections could help with that but the premise of the post is "electability sells" but the Democrats who pull off the most impressive wins (Whitmer, Shapiro, Klobuchar, etc) generally aren't well-liked by the left
English
Maybe I’m just speaking for myself but I think centrists underrate how much left wing frustration comes from the feeling that Dems just aren’t taking this stuff seriously. They could get a lot of goodwill just by running someone with a credible electoral record.

Hasan soft on Whitmer and Ossoff, he has more pragmatic sense than most Democratic Party consultants

@bocnj1 @ettingermentum bc eliCIA slotkkkin is literally a goddamn CIA agent and one of the clearest industry plants we've ever seen. When Chuck Schumer is calling them the future of the party you know it's cooked lmao
English
@ettingermentum Think this is somewhat true but IDK why Slotkin is such a big punching bag from the left in that case (Whitmer too honestly)

"can i still be a leftist if my family is rich?" yes, but the fact that you asked that question tells me that you are desperately needy and insecure and that you think of politics as a personal journey that others are supposed to celebrate you for taking, so actually no

I have to say something about this.
Michael Blake is a Zionist.
Let’s not endorse Zionists.
There’s another candidate @votevega26 who is a loud and proud anti-Zionist.
He’s challenging Ritchie Torres in the primary AND running independent.
That is who deserves our energy.

We are proud to endorse @MrMikeBlake for Congress in #NY15! Our team has been engaged in thoughtful dialogue with Rev. Blake for several months about his evolution on the role of AIPAC in our political process and U.S. foreign policy with respect to Israel. He has spoken clearly and forcefully against Israel's genocide and ethnic cleansing of Palestine, rejecting AIPAC's influence, and denouncing his past votes opposing BDS as a New York state assemblyman. “As a newly elected New York Assemblyman, I was invited by AIPAC to visit Israel. At the time, I didn’t understand the magnitude of AIPAC’s and the Israeli government’s impact on our local politics. As a minister, I was drawn to the Holy Land. What I witnessed and heard changed me. During one meeting, a young Brother said the word “apartheid.” The organizer immediately shut it down. Years later, I stood on a stage with Black leaders, speaking about the connection between our communities. When Prime Minister Netanyahu addressed the crowd remotely and criticized President Obama, the room filled with boos. We were not there as partners. We were being used as political cover. Since then, I have watched AIPAC support policies and fund conflicts and a live streamed genocide across the Middle East that move us further from peace and closer to destruction. Ritchie Torres is bankrolled by AIPAC. He sends blank checks to foreign governments while schools in his district crumble and housing falls apart,” said Rev. Michael Blake. Rev. Blake’s willingness to confront his own past involvement, take accountability, and speak with clarity today reflects the kind of leadership this moment demands. As advocates for peace and for an end to the ongoing genocide, we believe movements grow stronger when people come to the truth and act on it. Rev. Blake’s evolution is a clear sign that the work being done by advocates across this country is breaking through. More leaders are recognizing the human cost of these policies and choosing to stand on the side of justice, accountability, and peace. That momentum is building, and it is how we win.

The difference between the two photos is that the Vogue cover is an editorial, meaning the photographer made the conscious choice to curate a racist caricature of a black man, whereas the Israeli settler simply Just Looks Like That.
This whole controversy around the L’Espresso cover is reminding me how much I held my tongue as a teenager, afraid that I would sound crazy if I repeated what I saw settlers doing. For example, one of the Jewish settlers who lived in the stolen half (yes, half) of our house in Jerusalem would repeatedly do unspeakable, perverted things to a German Shepherd they kept in the house. Whenever international activists came to visit, I'd tell them that the settlers beat the dog, which was true, but I often omitted the part about the sexual abuse--something about naming it outright made me feel dirty, as if complicit (I was also very young) until one day the settler did it while two European activists were present. He most likely wanted to be watched. A couple days later, there was a graffiti on our wall that said something like "settlers are very, very strange people."
The way Israeli settlers are depicted in the media is, in fact, very often understated. I assume people worry about coming across as conspiratorial or bigoted, so they often hesitate to report the full extent of such depravity. But at the end of the day, it is really not our problem that many Jewish settlers are quite frankly caricatures of themselves.

We're on the verge of a genocidal, nuclear war that our supposed "ally" has said he's ready to unleash.
Would it be too much to ask for the Prime Minister to have something to say about it? Or do?
Suspend US bases now.

Kanye West should never have been invited to headline Wireless. This government stands firmly with the Jewish community, and we will not stop in our fight to confront and defeat the poison of antisemitism. We will always take the action necessary to protect the public and uphold our values.

The biggest story in the world right now is that the president of the United States is a demented old man who takes pleasure in torturing and killing people and is committing crimes with impunity. And yet most legacy media outlets are too cowardly to tell it like it is.

Notice how quickly all that bullshit about liberating Iranians disappeared, and now it's all about bombing them back to the Stone Age, destroying their bridges and universities, poisoning their air and water, and stealing their oil.

A black U.S. soldier reads a message left by the Viet Cong during the Vietnam War, the message reads:
"U.S. Negro Armymen, you are committing the same ignominious crimes in South Vietnam that the KKK clique is perpetrating against your family at home."
