Cancer can be transmitted, but almost never between humans. It has naturally spread in dogs (CTVT) and Tasmanian devils, while human cases are extraordinarily rare and mainly involve organ transplantation.

[Dr. Yonni @kiddiewise_]

☆NEVER SAY NEVER IN MEDICINE☆

Although extraordinarily rare, there are documented cases of cancer transmission in humans through accidental implantation of tumor cells.

One of the best-known examples involved an orthopedic surgeon who accidentally cut his hand with a scalpel while operating on a patient with a malignant fibrous histiocytoma (now classified as undifferentiated pleomorphic sarcoma).

About five months later, the surgeon developed a tumor at the exact site of the injury. Genetic and cytogenetic analyses confirmed that the tumor was genetically identical to the patient's cancer, proving direct transmission of viable cancer cells.

The surgeon underwent wide local excision and remained disease-free after treatment.

When someone keeps pointing at a wound and you keep calling it "emotional attachment," it usually means the wound is real and you would rather not look at it.

You say people "finally have an opportunity to wake up."

That line tells me everything.

Vietnam, Korea, Chile, Indonesia, Iraq, Afghanistan, Libya, Gaza, Venezuela.

Sanctions on half the planet, coups, torture programs, mass surveillance, police killings on livestream, drone weddings, kids clawing through rubble for their parents.

All of that was not enough opportunity.

Apparently the only time it feels like a real crisis is when the same system starts closing in on people like you.

You call that "hijacked."

I call it the bill arriving at your own table.

You ask who I am trying to convince. You suggest it is myself.

I do not need to convince myself that empire is real. I grew up on the side that buries the evidence.

I am talking to people who live on the side that changes the channel.

You keep saying "hijacked" because it preserves a flattering story.

In that story:

The people were essentially noble.

A tiny group of villains stole their democracy.

One day, if the people "wake up," they will take it back.

It is a comforting script. It keeps the mirror clean.

The harsher truth is that what you call "hijacking" took decades.

It happened with votes, with silence, with lesser-evilism, with flag worship, with "thank you for your service," with "I do not follow politics," with "both sides are the same but I still line up every four years."

Hijacking is when someone puts a gun to your head and reroutes the plane.

Here, the passengers kept clapping for every change of direction as long as the drinks were cheap.

You ask, "What do you propose we do?"

The fact that this question keeps coming up is part of the problem.

People talk like there is some mystical secret solution hidden in a cave.

There are only unglamorous, costly things that people in the core have spent decades avoiding.

For example:

Stop voting for open imperial managers and then pretending you had no choice. If neither party will stop bombing, say so with your feet and your voice, not just your private disappointment.

Stop treating "support the troops" as a moral duty and start treating the permanent war machine as a moral scandal. Without bodies to fill uniforms, empire cannot project itself.

Stop letting media feed you the same script every time: "regrettable" civilian deaths, "security concerns," "moderate rebels." Start listening to the people under the bombs rather than the people behind the podiums.

Stop treating sanctions, coups, and blockades as technical policy and start naming them the way you would if they were used on you: economic warfare.

Unionize, organize, and break the idea that your only political role is consumer and voter. A population that can shut down ports, bases, and supply chains is harder to drag into war.

Cut your emotional dependency on being "the indispensable nation." Learn how to live in a world where your country is one among many, not the sun around which everyone else orbits.

None of that is romantic.

None of it is pure.

All of it hurts.

That is why people keep reaching for stories like "the system has been hijacked."

Because if it has been hijacked, you are just a passenger and someone else is to blame.

I am not interested in making you feel bad.

I am interested in making it impossible to pretend that radical self interest on the scale of an empire is anything other than organized harm.

You want a clean distinction:

"They hijacked the system, we are the victims, what should we do?"

I am telling you: the line is not that clean.

You live inside an arrangement where your comfort was repeatedly purchased with someone else’s catastrophe.

Sometimes you did not know. Often you could have known. Quite frequently you chose not to know.

So what should you do?

Start by retiring the word "hijacked."

Call things by their real names:

It was not hijacked. It was captured in slow motion, with your tax money and your consent.

You are not just a victim. You are part of the environment that made capture profitable.

Waking up is not an "opportunity." It is a debt.

After that, the steps are not mysterious.

Withdraw automatic loyalty.

Refuse to be emotionally blackmailed by flags and anthems.

Stand with those in your own country who say "not in our name" and mean it, even when it costs them jobs, friends, and comfort.

You want a neat, hopeful answer.

I do not have one.

What I have is this:

If a society can watch war after war, coup after coup, genocide after genocide, and still treat each new atrocity as a shock or a surprise, then the real hijacking is not of its institutions.

The real hijacking is of its conscience.

And that is not something I can fix for you.

That is something you either reclaim, or you accept that you live well because others die quietly.

[Sony Thăng @nxt888]

You are asking the wrong question to the wrong person.

You are talking to someone who grew up on the receiving end of Western power, not someone who learned geopolitics from Netflix.

I do not have a problem condemning imperialism "from all sides."

I have a problem pretending that all "sides" are equal when one bloc:

Built 800+ military bases abroad.

Controls the global reserve currency.

Runs the main sanction machinery.

Overthrew dozens of governments on every continent.

And backs the last open-air concentration camp in Gaza while calling it "self-defense."

That bloc is not Russia.

That bloc is not China.

That bloc is the U.S., its European vassals, and its little settler attack dog in West Asia.

So let’s be specific.

When Russia moves in Ukraine, the West calls it "naked imperialism."

When NATO creeps east for 30 years, tears up arms control treaties, backs coups in Kiev, and turns Ukraine into a forward operating base, that is somehow not imperialism, just "security architecture."

When China insists that Taiwan is part of its own historical and legal space, it is "aggression."

When the U.S. sails warships 10,000 kilometers from home, encircles China with bases and missiles, arms separatists, and openly talks about "containing" Chinese growth, that is sold as "defending democracy."

You see the pattern, right?

You only ask me, "Why don’t you condemn Russia and China?" because you swim in a narrative where what Washington and Brussels do is never named as empire, only as "order," "stability," or "rules-based."

Let me make my position clear:

If Moscow tomorrow starts stealing other people’s resources, installing puppet regimes on other continents, and sanctioning entire populations into famine, I will call that imperialism.

If Beijing starts running coups in Latin America, crushing African economies with IMF-style conditionality, and building Guant��namo-style black sites, I will call that imperialism.

But that is not where we are.

Right now, what I see is:

Russia responding to 30 years of NATO encirclement on its own borders, asserting the red lines any serious state would draw to defend its survival.

China reacting strategically to a century of humiliation, rebuilding itself with discipline and patience, and securing its own periphery against a foreign navy that has no legitimate reason to be at its doorstep except to keep it down.

You want to treat that as equal to:

Iraq 2003, a war of choice based on lies.

Libya 2011, a "no-fly zone" turned state destruction.

Afghanistan, 20 years of occupation and then walking away.

Chile, Congo, Indonesia, Iran, Guatemala, Vietnam, Nicaragua, Grenada, Panama, Yugoslavia, Syria, the list is almost endless.

So no, I do not "only" criticize Western imperialism.

I criticize the center of gravity of imperialism.

If a tiger bites you once and a mosquito bites you three times, you do not write a long essay about "both sides of biting." You deal with the animal that can actually kill you first.

That is what the Global South is doing.

You ask: "Why not condemn what Russia is doing in Ukraine?"

Because every Western politician and newspaper is already screaming about it 24/7, while carefully deleting the NATO, coup, and proxy-war context that led there.

My voice is not needed to reinforce the loudest propaganda machine on Earth.

You ask: "Why not condemn what China wants to do regarding Taiwan?"

Because for 150 years, European and American ships, soldiers, missionaries, and bankers carved Asia into zones like they were slicing cake.

China trying to secure reunification, however you feel about it, is not the same category as Europeans crossing oceans to carve up continents that never threatened them.

Russia wants a security buffer on its immediate border after centuries of invasions from the West.

China wants to finish a civil war and prevent a hostile military alliance from turning its front porch into a NATO aircraft carrier.

The U.S. wants no one, anywhere, to have the ability to say "no" to its sanctions, its dollar system, its bases, its vetoes, its bombardments.

You can pretend those are all "imperialisms" on the same moral plane.

I do not.

I live in a world where:

Washington arms Israel while it erases Palestinians in real time.

Brussels lectures Africa on "values" while backing French neocolonial currency systems.

The same Europe that starved my part of the world through colonies now calls Russian gas a "security threat" and Chinese investment "economic warfare."

And you want to talk to me about "balance"?

Here is my balance:

The U.S., Europe, and Israel are the primary axis of global violence today.

Russia and China are big powers with their own interests, but they are also the ones pushing back against a unipolar order that has strangled the Global South for generations.

If one day they become what the West is now, I will turn the same knife on them.

Until then, I am not confused about where the main gun is pointed.

[Sony Thăng @nxt888]

The United States is proof that you can drown a population in information and still keep them ignorant.

They have libraries, archives, documentaries, whistleblowers, declassified documents.

They know about Korea, Vietnam, Chile, Nicaragua, Iraq, Libya.

All the receipts are out in the open.

The problem is not that Americans do not know.

The problem is that knowing has no moral consequence for them.

They treat history like entertainment, not indictment.

This is an example of what I was telling you about the other day. About protecting your energy and choosing who you interact with.
Check any of my tweets, even the ones that do 5k+, there are 100s of ghost accounts like this rage baiting me and I never interact with them.

If you start throwing stones at every dog that barks, you will never get to your destination.

Think about the world and all the crazy people you meet on the street, market, shops, train etc, would you talk to them?
Now think about Twitter that way.
