“The weapon that has done the most for the conquest of Europe, for its colonization by Africa, for its Islamization, for the destruction of Europeans in Europe, for genocide by substitution, more than family reunification, more than widespread nocence, more than the migratory submersion itself, is the accusation of racism. It has paralyzed three hundred million people and made them accept the unacceptable, the worst that could happen to them: their own annihilation, their erasure as a civilization.”

I heard a saying or quote, whatever, that went something like, “ you’re never truly gone as long as someone remembers your name.” I don’t remember exactly. But that’s another thing that breaks my heart. And scares the hell out of me. Death. #brokenheart#Grief#death#Love
All I ever wanted from a relationship was a love like the one between Preston and Stacy on the new show The Madison on Paramount+. It breaks my heart that I’ll never have that. Mostly my own fault, but still, breaks my heart. #themadison#paramount#love#relationships#marriage
Every once in a while a scene from a show or a movie just hits me. It brings back all the feels from the passing of my parents. It reminds me that I don’t spend enough time with my daughter. It breaks me down and reminds me I need to do better. I will never stop trying.
It’s a shame that @HBO had to ruin The Pitt, an outstanding show up to this point, by turning it into a political medium to express liberal talking points. It’s a shame you can’t just make a really good TV show and leave it at that, you have to make it about politics.
SOCIALISTS THINK THEY'RE USING ISLAMISTS TO SPREAD SOCIALISM - BUT IN REALITY ISLAMISTS ARE USING THEM FOR ISLAMIC EXPANSION
Many on the political left believe they can ally with Islamist movements to gain power.
History shows the exact opposite: those alliances rarely end the way they expect.
Consider Iran in 1979:
Several leftist and Marxist-oriented guerrilla groups helped to overthrow the Shah and celebrated the revolution.
Key leftist groups involved:
* People's Mujahedin of Iran (MEK / PMOI): Founded as a left-wing, Islamist-Marxist group, they were a powerful force opposing the Shah through bombings and armed struggle.
* Organisation of Iranian People's Fedai Guerrillas (OIPFG/Feda'i): A major Marxist-Leninist guerrilla organization actively fighting the regime from 1971 to 1979.
* Tudeh Party of Iran: The traditional communist party that, while less involved in initial armed struggle, supported the revolution.
* Organisation of Struggle for the Emancipation of the Working Class: Another Marxist group active in the revolutionary street fighting.
These groups participated in a broad, yet fragile, coalition with Islamist followers of Ayatollah Khomeini to overthrow Shah Mohammad Reza Pahlavi.
However, after the revolution, these leftist groups were quickly suppressed by the new Islamic Republic.
Within months, many were imprisoned, executed, or pushed aside once the Islamist regime consolidated power.
It is a pattern seen repeatedly: temporary alliances between secular revolutionary movements and political Islam tend to collapse once power is secured.
Today, similar debates are emerging in parts of Europe, particularly in the UK, about political strategy, demographic change, and ideological alliances.
Whether one agrees or disagrees with those concerns, history shows that movements with fundamentally different end goals rarely remain partners for long.
The lesson is simple:
Before forming political alliances, it is worth asking whether the long-term objectives are truly compatible.
History is full of warnings for those willing to learn and heed them.
@Amer1can_Barbie I was behind one in line at Aldi the other day. Paid with her SNAP card, left in her new caddy. Must be nice. I make too much to qualify for any type of financial anything yet I struggled to pay my bills every month and lately food has become optional on some days.🤯
🧔 She lived as a man for a year and what she experienced surprised her.
Rejection, invisibility, silence, and constant pressure.
Her conclusion: men may be struggling more than people want to admit.
My information consumption is now 1/4 X, 1/4 podcast interviews of the smartest practitioners, 1/4 talking to the leading AI models, and 1/4 reading old books. The opportunity cost of anything else is far too high, and rising daily.
I do get it, people want to see haymakers. I just think it’s wrong to boo at two guys that trained their asses off and are pouring their hearts out in the UFC cage. Positive or negative thank you guys for all the comments and interaction. I truly appreciate it. 👍🏼
If you’re at @ufc 326 and you’re booing during the Holloway / Oliveira fight, you have no business buying tickets to a UFC event you idiot. You’re watching a master class in grappling domination.
