Those ads are what took up most of my screen when I tried to view his feed so I'm keeping them in. Attacking civilian infrastructure: brought to you by dick pills
I hope nobody in or sympathetic to Iran organises for low risk attacks on electrical substations around the USA.
It's really worrying because several home grown white supremacist accelerationist groups have already performed disorganised attacks where they just shoot readily available big rifle rounds into the transformer cooling radiators from a distance out of a van and dip out.
I seriously hope somebody in the USA is paying attention to this danger. Literally anyone could repeat this attack and most of the grids in the states are really vulnerable to ongoing rolling collapse once a few stations go down. Someone should do something about it.
Because the guys who've done this in the past are skinhead losers a few have gotten caught, but as I understand it the right wing nutjob lore is that more groups have gotten away with it and because the implications are really severe the successful attacks get buried in the media since nobody has the political capital to improve infrastructure resilience. In other words this vulnerability is very well known and understood, easy to research and draw the correct conclusions about, but the can just keeps getting kicked down the road.
Its especially unsettling because unlike most violent attacks against the state, one could very easily predict that poking a few holes in a substation from a distance would not require you to directly hurt anyone else, so the pool of potential candidates for such an action is much bigger than more flashy violent direct action. Even a pacifist could be a risk in this particular area.
What really sickens me to my stomach is that attacks like that could go viral online very quickly with people inspired by earthquake faction (for example) but who don't want to take such drastic risks themselves, so the Iranian Enemy might not even have to do anything at all. These sorts of things can just spontaneously emerge in the internet age.
Would we even know? Could the cops even figure out whats going on?
What could be more "traditionally american" than a bit of cheeky plinking on federal land?
if you decide to re-share these concerns elsewhere on the internet (spread the word so your local politicians can learn about this danger and push to shore up america's defenses) please have a GPT rewrite the text. I am very shy and would not want accidental attribution leading back to hexbean because thinking about this stuff makes me anxious and I lose sleep worrying about it (I just had to say something tho, I'm so worried for my favourite country Amerika) so I'll put it out of my mind now.
lil foreign meddling as a treat (for my cake day apparently 
)
Damn, homeboy must be loaded up on those oil futures huh
Even the insider trading seems like it's going to backfire. With Qatar's natural gas production deficit there's a big fear they're going to declare force majeure and invalidate all of the contracts that can't be fulfilled. They're trading paper oil that can't be produced or shipped right now. At some point that's the NFT bubble again and those futures don't actually represent some materially valuable thing.
paper has to close by expiry, force majeure or not.
but tbh, all us foreign policy can be described as loading up on oil futures.
Thank you for your attention on this matter - is my fav fuck you email signoff. Per my previous email.
I love when it's ending a rambling post that boils down to "I am very mad". It always reads as "btw im not mad actually im not mad, MY FUCKING NAME IN CASE YOU FORGOT AND DON'T CARE ABOUT ME ANYMORE I GUESS." There's something so emotionally dissonant about it.
I'm sorry I can't get over those ads 👀
Originally I was going to post this in c/news because it's threatening war crimes, but there isn't yet an article about it beyond the livethread and the ads are just so absurd. The most impotent military operation I've seen in my life is sponsored by dick pills.
I hope they use this image in history books.
The screenshot pretty accurately captures the zeitgeist. Bravo.

That sounds kind of like terrorism, which I have on good authority the United States is strongly opposed to and willing to intervene militarily to prevent
WW3 IS STARTING THANK YOU FOR YOUR ATTENTION TO THIS MATTER

Iran shouldn't negotiate with terrorists
please install ublock origin
Is that the one that works now? I had it at some point before Adblock Plus became the meta and now that barely stops ads on some websites. Normally it doesn't bother me because I just get shit like this and the really desperate ones like Rob Schneider selling liberal tears whiskey as he's getting divorced.
UBlock Origin has been the most reliable one for many years now. Though on Chrome you'll have to use a lite version due to Manifest v3 changes -- still works quite reasonably though.
yep, slop
Harden your hearts Iran.
i like how it looks just like a shitty spin-off sequel to 24
Alright, good luck with that or whatever
