I feel optimistic regarding China and Russia in their conflicts against the US, but I'm very concerned and a bit doomer towards Palestine :( (hexbear.net)

Time is on the side of the Russians in Ukraine and the Chinese on pretty much anything else when it comes to confronting the US empire.

But ever since the ceasefire in Lebanon and the fall of Assad I can't help but feel that the Palestinian cause is getting worse every day. No one is lifting a finger for them except the Yemenis and it only seems that the Zionist fucks are getting closer to their objectives.

Civil war in "Israel" when? True Promise 3 when (lol)?

It doesn't help that some of the loudest voices cheering for Assad's fall where Palestinians and that sectarism is strong against Shia's...

Thanks for the sources and then no thanks for unnecessarily poisoning the well with sarcasm.

Its nice of you to take the time to give me some helpful recommendations in the most obnoxious way you could possibly come up with.

Real duality of man stuff.

Now your dreams will never again be so peaceful. You will see capital in your nights, like a nightmare, that presses you and threatens to crush you. With terrified eyes you will see it get fatter, like a monster with one hundred proboscises that feverishly search the pores of your body to suck your blood. And finally you will learn to assume its boundless and gigantic proportions, its appearance dark and terrible, with eyes and mouth of fire, morphing its suckers into enormous hopeful trumpets, within which you’ll see thousands of human beings disappear: men, women, children. Down your face will trickle the sweat of death, because your time, and that of your wife and your children will soon arrive. And your final moan will be drowned out by the happy sneering of the monster, glad with your state, so much richer, so much more inhumane.

—Carlo Cafiero, Summary of Marx's Capital (1879)

You also entered this discussion misgendering one of our comrades. You don't really have a civility/politeness leg to stand on, and you're lucky you didn't have your comments removed for that.

I didn't gender anyone in this discussion. I may have used colloquial figures of speech that are common here in Canada.

In American English, "man" as an exclamation ("Man, that's awesome!") functions as a figure of speech primarily as an interjection or a vocative, similar to "dude" or "hey." It's used for emphasis, to express surprise, or to show agreement, without necessarily being directed at a specific person.

In Canadian slang, "man" can refer to a male, but it's also used in a broader sense, particularly in Toronto slang, where "mans" can be a plural pronoun, meaning "I," "me," "you," or "we,"

I wasn't calling anyone a "man" in the same way that when I say "God, I'm hungry" I'm not calling you god.

That being said, if my usage of "man" or "dude" bothers a person let me know and I will apologize and correct it.

If Babs feels misgendered I would apologize to them but they didn't signal they had any issue with it and you've been the only one offended on their behalf.

If my use of a vocative was misunderstood, then I need to apologize to them, not you.
