i do not care if Trump's comments result in nothing tonight. no one who even thinks of saying the phrase "a whole civilization will die tonight, never to be brought back again" should be allowed to operate an ice cream stand, nevermind the most powerful office on the planet

We’ve come a long way

We see our home planet as a whole, lit up in spectacular blues and browns. A green aurora even lights up the atmosphere. That's us, together, watching as our astronauts make their journey to the Moon.

Good morning, world! 🌎 We have spectacular new high-resolution images of our home planet, all of us looking back through the Orion capsule window at our Artemis II astronauts as they continue their journey to the Moon.

President Macron scolds the US and Israel for attacking Iran, "The day you say I don't like your regime, I consider you threatening your neighbour so I will intervene and bomb you, you open a Pandora's box" "Iran is a very bad regime, no discussion about that. I disagree with on a lot of topics" "But I don't agree we will fix the situation just by bombings or military operations" "Look at what happened in Iraq, Afghanistan, Libya - we never delivered. Never" "You have to respect the sovereignty of people, if people want to change a regime, they can do so" "Having an agenda shared by Korea, France, the other Europeans, Canada, Japan, India, Brazil, Australia, you start having a third way" "Those who don't want to be dependent on China, or aligned by definition, on the US"

I fucking love humans. Imagine the shit we’d come up with if we didn’t have to please shareholders.

How great would it be if we kept doing cool stuff like this instead of constantly trying to kill each other.

i think it’s lame how yall discredit shit yall are unfamiliar with instead of just simply… getting familiar.

I know some of y’all don’t give a fuck about anyone but yourselves and your aspirations are to be a revolutionary, but you cannot be a revolutionary if you do not care about the most vulnerable people in your communities.

Because many of y'all are being mean to people who do NOT hate you! That's why I said, innocent online strangers. These aren't your enemies.

Y'all aren't progressive. Y'all are just mean and angry. But because you don't want to confront these feelings and handle the real forces that upset you, y'all get unjustifiably upset at innocent online strangers. Other people have become your outlet. A way to let off emotional

What I find most jarring about the Western anti-imperialist left is that there’s this unspoken racism embedded in everything they do. From Syria, Venezuela, Iran, and now Cuba. Unlike the far-right, where racism is unapologetic, this version operates within a framework that assumes the people they claim to defend are somehow primitive. To the Western leftist, the local, native, or diaspora is seen as inferior in their intellectual understanding of politics and even their own countries realities. Because of this, these anti imperialists leftist easily justify their warped behavior of indulging in luxury regime sponsored trips, carrying water for despots and ultimately silencing victims.

It’s been very cool & not at all insanity inducing to watch people who stayed silent during the January massacre not only become Iran experts over the last few weeks, but to speak over Iranians, and dismiss their lived experience, because it doesn’t fit their anti U.S. narrative.

non-Iranians will read a Wikipedia page or watch a few TikToks and think they’re now experts and explain Iranian politics/history to actual Iranians lmao

Only an Iranian can understand the pleasure of seeing someone die who ruined the best years of their life. Whatever happens, his death is a relief for the pain of those whose family or whose dreams he destroyed.

apparently some leftists believe in ACAB when it comes to western police, but when it comes to the morality police, basiji, sepah, which are some of the most corrupt and abusive state-sponsored police forces in this entire world, ACAB goes out the window
