There is something legitimately perverse about the consistency with which the following things align:
Pro-Israel
Pro-AI
*alleged* history of sexual abuse / domestic violence / rape apologism
Boy George
Elon Musk
Peter Thiel
Joe Lonsdale
Gene Simmons
And so on…
@ww_dasilva@maovruse The improvisational element, comping/trading/soloing pushed the genre out of the confines of military brass music and French/Creole dance numbers but it has strong precedent in church organ music, choral folk music, and western classical music (diminished during age of recording)
@ww_dasilva@maovruse This is dumb. Early big band jazz absolutely makes sense as a successor to military orchestras which exist the world over and presumably would have always existed… whatever that means. So long as you have black people in America you have jazz as far as I’m concerned.
Can we just… drop the facade of morality here for a minute and speak candidly?
Iran is RIGHT for striking vessels in the Strait of Hormuz. I said it, I don’t care if you like it. You’re lying to yourself if you want to act like it’s wrong.
The United States launched a war of aggression against a sovereign country, and this is an obvious and long-identified defense maneuver meant to create asymmetric downside against an overwhelmingly more powerful military adversary.
“Ohhhh but it’s wronggg. What about international lawwwww”
Last I checked, slaughtering 120 schoolchildren in Minab is against international law. Last I checked, launching a war of aggression against a sovereign nation like we see here is against international law. Last I checked, bombing water storage and infrastructure facilities is against international law…
… last I checked, the United States killed three Indian sailors in the Strait of Hormuz by attacking a civilian vessel.
“Ohhhhh but maritime lawwww. UNCLOS”
Y’all check on Cuba lately? The last delivery of oil to Matanzas was the Anatoly Kolodkin in MARCH. The United States is the SOLE reason the Universal couldn’t deliver in May. They have blackouts for 22 hours a day. Their hospitals can’t function.
You can whine all you want about morals and ethics, but maybe take a second to realize how stupid you sound doing it.
@garrypickles@PippaCrerar Don’t know why you felt the need to get chat gpt to write this retarded horseshit, I’m sure you could have written it on your own
@SteveReedMP@UKLabour We let hack journalists dismember our party in full view of the public for years, we submitted ourselves to gruelling humiliation rituals and show trials, all at the behest of Israel and its lobbyists, and all based on hot air. It destroyed us. And now you must do the same! 🫶
@sowelleconomics Everyone hates Douglas Murray and I can guarantee you that not a single citizen, of any country, in any part of the world, especially including his own family, would shed a single tear if he died tomorrow.
It would be a blessing for him to die before his own Nuremberg trial
