just thought of the men of the Resistance on the frontlines in the South that must have seen the Iranian missiles last night and how they must have felt🥹
not to be rude but some of you are trying to derive an understanding of palestine entirely from tweets reacting to other tweets reacting to other tweets. every day i open this app and discover another argument that was already answered in palestinian literature 30+ years ago
anyone with an opinion against the Resistance and Iran, write it down on a piece of paper and throw it in a dumpster where it belongs then set the dumpster on fire to erase any trace of your opinion ever having existed
If Iran hadn't responded, they would have said Iran is all talk, no action. Now that Iran has responded, their argument is, "Why didn't Iran do this for the South," knowing well that most of these people do not even care about the South, and supported the Lebanese president in his positions when he surrendered it to the enemy.
Such statements simply aim to sow discord. When Iran set the condition that all wars in the region must end for its negotiations to start, and emphasized Lebanon several times, it clearly set a boundary and tied its own security to that of its allies. This boundary was crossed by the enemy when it continued its war on the South and Gaza, but also when the enemy imposed a blockade on Iran and breached the ceasefire several times. In response to breaches of its own territories, Iran's responses were calculated and always threw the ball back into the enemy's court, who attempted to keep matters below a certain threshold. Iran's response today to the "israeli" aggression against Dahyeh is arguably more serious than its responses to the aggressions against its own sovereign territories, ships, and interests. Iran today is at risk of the war returning, and while it could have returned from the enemy attacking Iran, it could return because Iran chose to hold its promise and stand by its allies. Of course, there is a common interest, but that does not undermine the stance Iran has taken, especially when the very president of Lebanon surrendered his country and its South to the enemy.

Economic pressure, propaganda, and predatory recruitment explain why people join the military. They do not absolve them of moral responsibility for what they choose to participate in. An explanation is not an excuse.
tell me the number. tell me how many children equal a bachelor’s degree. tell me how many shattered families equal a pension. if we’re doing economics, finish the calculation. have the courage to say it directly.
i want people to hear themselves. i want them to sit with the horror of the sentence they keep circling without saying. yes, the village was destroyed. yes, people were killed. but someone got a pathway into the middle class. say it directly. hear how monstrous it sounds.
the funniest thing about American socialism is that it often starts from the assumption that the wealth of the imperial core already belongs to the people living there and just needs to be redistributed more fairly
it's ghoulish and inhumane to ask any person who still has a soul to sympathize with american military. it's questionable even in the cases of countries where military service is mandatory, let alone a country where enlisting in the most genocidal army in the world is a choice
isn't it funny how being anti-cop & anti-ice is a universal statement but being anti-military is a taboo that will get you called a classist. isn't it interesting how we only judge systems of power when they harm americans but they are not that bad if they affect the global south
Companies really don't care anymore about hiring you at the start of your career and training you. It wasn't like this literally 5 years ago or something. How did everything become so fucking shit in such a small amount of time
I think there’s something deeply wrong with the way I resent having a job. I know it’s fine morally to not want to be coerced to work for survival, but most people have the ability to suck it up. But I am haunted by the reality of my one life on this planet being owned by others.
The first fully AI-generated movie to be accepted by a major film festival, Dreams of Violets, is atrocity propaganda for war with Iran. The trailer features characters gazing joyfully up at US/Israeli fighter jets arriving to bomb their country while a narrator talks of freedom:
