Idk why but the air quality dropped 3x(300->1200) in the past 2-3 days again in Delhi.

Good thing that the has managed to label all anti-pollution protests as "Maoist" so nobody dares to protest anymore since the government can and will throw you in jail for a decade without trial.

Most people don't care and are out enjoying the weekend in this lethal air.

I've noticed people say, every time they see Israel commit a war crime such as when they dropped a missile in qatar or forced tons of people to strip down and gathered them in groups to stay that way, that 'well we did it too, are you saying we're also committing war crimes?'/'well we did it too, we shouldn't be upset because that would be hypocrisy'.

I know the immediate response would be 'yes, America commits tons of war crimes', but honestly I feel like they're somewhat baiting for that response because they know people will just shut their brains off if you accuse our government of war crimes; instead the appropriate response (and like....IN THE FIRST PLACE, those former arguments entirely skip the point) should be 'if a different country attacked us in the same way for the same purpose, would you defend them like you did Israel?'

I saw a video of a guy defending Israel attacking qatar with 'well they didn't attack qatar, they dropped a missile on a target who was responsible for crimes against them and a few civilians happened to be killed or injured; we've done that too you know!'

America harbors TONS of people who are responsible for crimes against other countries, are you entirely sure you want to tell those countries that these methods are valid? Among the people America harbors are the MEK for example, a terrorist organization that committed terror attacks in Iran. If the response then is that the MEK are not registered as a terror organization in America, then Hamas may very well not be registered as a terror organization in qatar either. Would we take the same stance if other countries behaved the same way with us?

International law isn't difficult, it's actually very intuitive if you even cared to think about it for a hot minute!

There are normal and valid anti-hypocrisy arguments to make, but to use the argument 'well WE did it too you know!' is one heck of a bizarre misunderstanding of the assignment.

So yeah, my girlfriend took me to visit the ВДНХ (look it up, libs) and it was honestly amazing. I got Gagarin to pat my head in the monument to the Kosmonauts!!

The monument was dedicated to all the people of the Soviet Union because they made it possible, almost cried reading that.

Comrade Lenin says hi to all Hexbears, I'll try and meet him in person in a few days, though I heard he's been real quiet recently.

The Azerbaijan pavillion contained, among others, a memorial to some important Azerbaijani personalities. This is a picture of Leila Mamedbekova Russian Wikipedia link, first female Azerbaijani pilot, went on to train more than 4000 pilots in her life.

Finally, got to see the Rabochii and Kolkhoznitsa statue right outside the ВДНХ, it's huge, stunning, and my girlfriend told me today that it was designed in 1937 by a female architect called Vera Mukhina.

Thanks for the patience, I'm just stoked AF

Tweto its fake lol, but WSWS defending Harvey Weinstein isnt

lol

lmao, even

Social media is mostly bots, most people hate the government

Liberals are at a point where they hate the Dems and the GOP

The right wing coalition is falling apart with Candace owens, Tucker carlson, and Nick Fuentes separating the Nazis from the evangelical Christians.

Material conditions are getting worse, but we haven't had the ai bubble pop or war with Venezuela. Either will make life way worse for the west and we're gonna see chaos.

Idk what's gonna happen, but I think trump 2.0 has kinda turned a lot of people away from the right by both making material conditions worse and being mean and annoying.

Look at any news sub on reddit and it's filled with pro Israel bots and shit. But the amount of obvious pro Israel propaganda from the state and by bots and shit was so obvious it's now turning every right winger under the age of 40 into a Nazi.

I don't think the mass botting campaigns work. They only make people more upset at the right and make the right look like extremely annoying assholes.

The right won a lot of ground by going "Le woke is trying to put politics into everything"

But now every fucking social media thread about sports or video games or movies gets brigaded by obvious right wing bots, even the most stupid liberals I know hate it.

People hate this it makes it seem like right wingers are now the annoying sjw that makes everything about politics (they always have been) and since most people under 40 get their news from tiktok and shit the bots and MSM manufacturing consent campaigns don't work.

My mother is 60 and gets her news from tiktok. She doesn't want the US to invade Venezuela, literally nobody does only bots do.

It's backfiring but I think the admin is super on twitter and think it's working. I think they legit do not understand that they're getting everyone to hate them and theyre making material conditions worse. I think they also believe more in the polymarket shit than polls because they're that stupid.

What happens next? Trump's polling is the worst it's ever been. The right wing coalition has collapsed and now maga is basically only the white evangelical boomers.

If material conditions get worse we're gonna see more Luigis and Tyler Robinsons in a country with way to many guns.

President Trump attends bill signing to recognize the 1980 U.S. Olympic men's hockey team - YouTube

I boot up my Windows partition to be met with fucking Adobe Acrobat trying to sell me a paid plan. I need to dismiss that pop-up within Acrobat before I can close the whole thing and it looks like Adobe are pumping their content marketing into Acrobat itself.

Who is going to open a PDF then be like, "Okay, I guess I'll see what Hasan Minhaj has to say about fucking PDFs." I would need to be super bored at work to do that.

Fuck this shitty company and their bullshit bloated program. Sumatra all the way, the only reason I keep Acrobat around is to sign the occasional PDF

Some experts said it couldn’t be done. WRONG! Only Trump could do this - not Sleepy, not Crooked, not anyone!!! Tremendous numbers!!! #TruthWins

Around the fire, we try to keep warm in the harsh cold. Our family actually does not have our own tent; we live with another family in their tent and only sleep there, while the rest of the day we spend outside.

Every moment in the cold and rain reflects the hardship we are going through, and we hope to find a small shelter for our family.

Any help or donation would be a true treasure for us, enabling us to buy a tent to protect us from the cold and rain. From the heart, thank you to everyone who extends a helping hand🙏🏽🙏🏽💔

It's going to take another hour to get the porridge just right for them.
