You cannot shame the empire.

But you can map it.

The comfortable who look away: map them.

They are in the suburbs, in the professional class, in the institutions that produce the language of concern without the practice of change.

Their function is legitimacy.

Without them, power is naked.

With them, power is a consensus.

The anxious who cling to their jobs: map them.

They are everywhere.

They are the distributed nervous system of the system, maintaining its infrastructure out of a rational fear that has been carefully cultivated and is routinely reinforced.

Their function is continuity.

The machine runs because they show up.

The exhausted poor: map them.

They are the proof of concept and the warning.

Their exhaustion is not a side effect.

It is the output of a system that needs them available, pliable, and unable to do the one thing that would change everything:

Stop. Organize. Stay stopped.

The overpoliced internal colonies: map them.

They are the laboratory and the message.

The message to everyone else about what happens when you don't have a mortgage to lose.

When you have nothing, the state shows you what it looks like without the buffer layer.

The empire is not a conspiracy.

It is an ecosystem.

Ecosystems are not defeated by attacking one part.

They are transformed when enough of the organisms inside them stop performing their assigned function.

Map first.

Then decide what you are willing to stop doing.

Those who know me can attest to the fact that I have tried whatever little I can in these past years to spread the truth about Iran and prevent this catastrophic war. (Yes, I have also made mistakes, but I have owned them publicly and learned from them.)

But today, I am convinced beyond a shadow of a doubt that if Iran softens its stance again just because Trump has realized for the 41st time that he can’t win this disaster militarily, then not just Iran but the entire world will pay a much, much greater price.

Let’s be crystal clear: no matter what Iran does, the ultimate goal of the empire is Iran’s destruction in its current form.
Iran, with its vast resources and wealth, its human and military capabilities and, most importantly, its unique history, philosophy and determination to stand up to the world’s bullies, cannot be allowed to exist.

The US will never accept Iran’s sovereignty -and more so, it will never accept its own humiliation and demise as a power. Even if the US wanted to, it can’t. It’s not a sovereign country looking after its own interests. It’s a mercenary army, currently rented out to Israel. It’s a rental government nearly entirely controlled by special interests.

Iran has tried every possible way to prevent a war. It has negotiated and made huge concessions. It has chosen diplomacy time after time while being sanctioned, sabotaged, terrorized and attacked.
And it has still paid the highest price imaginable for it.

I know Iran is also suffering and enduring unimaginable pain. But Iran is also unimaginably strong right now. It has the support of the people of the world. And it is in a unique position to not only demonstrate but project power.

And it has a responsibility.

It has the responsibility to save not only itself but the rest of the world from a humiliated superpower, an insatiable war machine headed by a desperate narcissistic marionette ,who will never stop finding ways to turn this catastrophe around. It has the responsibility to use this power to save those who are still dying in a genocide.

And the only way for Iran to achieve that is to remain united and strong. To use this unprecedented power and support to reset the entire system - to stop this madness once and for all through uninterrupted and undeniable strength.

🇺🇸 The US NED Has Only Grown Since Trump's Fake "Defunding" Stunt

▪️Not only did the Trump administration not "defund" or "dismantle" the US National Endowment for Democracy or USAID - it has dumped more money into both while simply hiding both better from what had been growing public awareness;

▪️The NED has published its 2025 annual report (here: https://t.co/Lyb2XkhuxN) meaning it continued undermining nations worldwide and advancing regime change in targeted nations AFTER Trump claimed to defund/dismantle it;

▪️The NED under Trump has continued to spend money to consolidate control over US-captured nations like Syria while quietly flooding money into so-called "independent media;"

▪️As warned, the Trump administration not only wasn't going to stop the course of US continuity of agenda, it has only accelerated it while deliberately lying, claiming and posing to do the opposite;

▪️Among the US-backed protests mentioned - include verification of US involvement in Nepal, Bangladesh, and Sri Lanka - all surrounding India for obvious reasons - Thailand was also mentioned as targeted ahead of elections that thankfully did not go Washington's way (so far);

[Amir @AmirAminiMD]

Oh they do understand. Perfectly.
They’ve understood this for decades.

They just don’t give a flying fuck about it.

Why would they? It’s not like the US is a democracy where elections matter.
It’s an oligarchy represented by a fake Duopoly.
It’s the US version of the Chinese Communist Party -but with two wings to give the masses an illusion of choice where it matters the least -and keeps them divided on exactly those issues.

The US Congress has the likability rating of syphilis and an approval rating of about 15% -not currently but for DECADES.

Every conservative pundit and commentator, every neolib or neocon politician or regular racist lunatic is being exposed, humiliated and ratioed 24/7 - on every social media platform - and has been at least for the past two decades.

Do you think they care?

Do you really believe they care about humiliation, polls, or what people think or watch on social media?

They are laughing about us.

The entire world, especially the American people, have come to despise Israel for its horrible crimes against humanity - for a genocide committed with their tax money and weaponry -and for starting one insane conflict and war after another.

What do they do? They merge the US military and foreign policy with that genocidal entity - not a random time - but at the height of collective condemnation and disapproval - in broad daylight.

In all our faces.

Everything we do here, myself included, feels nice and important - but has, at the end of the day, absolutely no effect on policy- on people who are bought and paid to gaslight and betray the masses.

And unfortunately there’s nothing the American people can do about it at this point -except for maybe going guillotine.

Moore's Law is dead. China just buried it.

CHINA has just crushed the MICROCHIP industry and western industry is trying to suppress the news

>>

At ISCAS 2026, Huawei dropped a bomb on the global chip

industry: a new physics law called "t Scaling"

Here's the genius part

For 60 years, chipmakers shrunk transistors flat. At 3nm, quantum tunneling kills the game. Even Apple and Nvidia hit a wall.

Huawei's answer? Don't shrink. FOLD. Stack transistors vertically. Crush signal distance by 90%. Make geometry irrelevant - make TIME the new metricswer?

Receipts 381 chips already shipped

Current density = 2nm equivalent

2031 target = 1.4nm (5-10 years ahead of West)

$20 BILLION saved per fab

NO EUV machines required

Translation: Every US sanction. Every Dutch EUV ban.

Every chip war headline. Just became obsolete.

They blocked the road. China built a highway.

🎥 Israeli settlers set fire to Palestinian-owned land near the Shavei Shomron settlement, northwest of Nablus.

The settlement was built on land belonging to surrounding Palestinian villages and sits in an area where residents have faced repeated settler attacks and land seizures.

The arson comes amid a wider wave of settler revenge attacks across the occupied West Bank after five Palestinians were murdered in Tell in a field execution following a settler assault on the village.

[Alireza Salimi @AR_Salimii]

11 years ago, Saudi Arabia launched a total blockade against Yemen, and the result was the most severe famine of the current century.

One of the world's worst man-made humanitarian crisis unfolded with these shocking statistics:
227,000 deaths solely from famine, malnutrition, and disease.
85,000 children under 5 starved to death in the initial years alone.
1 child dies every 9 minutes from hunger and preventable illnesses.
14 million people pushed to the brink of absolute starvation.

Now that Yemen has imposed a naval blockade against Saudi Arabia in self-defense, Western governments have rushed to criticize and condemn it.

Yemen has every right to defend itself and its people.

[Sony Thăng @nxt888]

The United States has military bases in approximately 80 countries.

Not 8. Not 18. Eighty.

There is no other nation on earth with more than a handful of foreign military installations.

The United States has entire base ecosystems: multiple facilities, tens of thousands of personnel, prepositioning of weapons and vehicles and aircraft on every inhabited continent.

And the word used to describe this, in American political discourse, is not "occupation."

It is not "empire."

It is not even "presence."

It is called "security commitments."

The language is doing everything.

The language is the whole operation.

Because a "security commitment" sounds like something you offer to a friend. It sounds bilateral. It sounds consensual. It sounds like a favor.

It does not sound like what it is: the physical infrastructure of dominance.

The material fact of a single nation that has decided, and enforced the decision for eighty years, that it will have a military footprint on every strategically significant piece of land on earth.

And that any nation that objects to this will discover what the footprint feels like when it comes down on them.

Security commitments.

Eighty countries.

The most militarized nation in human history is the one that sets the global agenda on peace.

And somehow that sentence is not the first line of every newspaper every morning.

[Iranian Observer @Ms_Iranian]

Mark my words: even if Iran completely surrenders its nuclear program to the U.S., they will still try to erase us from the map. Global politics has no principles.

Look at Gaddafi—the moment Libya abandoned its nuclear program, Western powers betrayed him and celebrated his death on live TV.

North Korea saw that fate and rightfully understood that strength is the only language the West respects; now, no one dares touch them.

For nearly five decades, we've endured false accusations, brutal sanctions, and constant pressure to seize our capabilities. Why do we refuse to bow down? Because we know our enemy.

They don't care about international law—they only care about preserving their absolute dominance and eliminating anyone who stands up to them.

People ask why we don't just yield to avoid conflict. But this is a fight for our survival. History has taught us that these powers will never be our true allies. We have studied history well, and unlike others, we refuse to fall into the same trap twice. That is why Iran will never back down.

[Kevork Almassian @KevorkAlmassian]

🚨 WHO ARE U.S. SOLDIERS REALLY DEFENDING? 🚨

When American soldiers are killed in the Middle East, the public is told they died “defending the nation.”

But if the battlefield is more than 10,000 kilometers from American soil, the question becomes unavoidable: what exactly were they defending?

Since 2001, Americans have heard the same language again and again, in Afghanistan, Iraq, Lebanon, Libya, Syria, and now Iran.

Every war is framed as a fight against “evil.”

But the outcome for ordinary Americans has not been security or prosperity. It has been higher costs, deeper instability, and more families paying the price while political elites and the military-industrial complex continue their lives untouched and further enriched.

Maybe the real divide in America is not left versus right.

Maybe it is vertical: ordinary people versus an elite class that sends them to fight wars of empire.

[Amir @AmirAminiMD]

I wish it were only one school 4 months ago.

[Sony Thăng @nxt888]

People say:

"I don’t trust the U.S. or Israel, but Iran is still a huge threat."

Based on what?

The same intelligence agencies that lied about Iraq?

The same media that covers up every child killed in Gaza?

If your view of Iran comes from its enemies, your opinion is not independent.

It is a franchise.

[Sony Thăng @nxt888]

"Both sides have committed atrocities."

This sentence is used to achieve one thing: equivalence.

If both sides have committed atrocities, then there is no aggressor.

If there is no aggressor, there is no victim.

If there is no victim, there is no crime.

If there is no crime, there is no accountability.

"Both sides" takes a situation with a history, with a power differential, with a military budget on one side that exceeds the GDP of the other, with an occupying power and an occupied population, and flattens it into a symmetric conflict between two equally culpable parties.

It sounds like balance.

It is the elimination of context presented as fairness.

The person who breaks into your home and the person defending their home have not both committed equivalent acts by the fact of violence being present on both sides.

"Both sides" is what you say when you know who the aggressor is and have decided that saying so would be inconvenient.

[Muhammad Mazen @mhmd_s09]

The war has returned to Gaza with full force in recent days.

It's no longer limited to isolated strikes; entire residential areas are being bombarded and destroyed. Killings are being carried out by drones, helicopters, and tanks.

There is no longer a genuine ceasefire. This necessitates our intense focus on what is happening in Gaza.

Do not underestimate the power of writing and speaking out. Silence is complicity in the killing.

[Amir @AmirAminiMD]

China and Russia helping Iran behind the scenes is because they have strategic interests in Iran not being turned into a failed state and also the US being trapped in a war of attrition.

They don’t give a flying fuck about any crimes against humanity as long as they are not the targets.
India, Pakistan, China, Russia…or any regional power - if only one of them has had the courage and integrity to just issue one powerful statement threatening to get military involved if peace isn’t restored and a global economic crisis isn’t prevented, we wouldn’t be where we are today.

Not a single nation had the courage and integrity.
Not even after it had become crystal clear that the US was at its limits, running out of moral, munition and oil, and was desperately looking for a way out.

It was a once in a lifetime opportunity for the world, particularly China or Russia, to press the US/Israel to stop a genocide and dozens of illegal wars.

That’s the difference between Iran and the trash that is calling itself the international community.

[Amir @AmirAminiMD]

Iran put everything it had on the line, everything, to stop the most heinous crimes, the crime of crimes and the supreme crime of aggression, in our time.

Standing completely alone in the world, it tied its own destiny to the people of Palestine and Lebanon.

And it almost succeeded.

Now imagine if only one, just ONE, other nation had stood with Iran on this issue.

Not a single country pressed Israel and the US to commit to the MOU.
Not a single one of the nuclear powers and all those self proclaimed ambassadors of peace.
Not a single neighboring Arab country.
Not even Lebanon itself.

They all just stood by and watched Iran fight alone and pay the price.

What an absolutely despicable and disgusting world we have created.

🇨🇳💻 Will China’s revolutionary breakthrough make AI faster, leaner and smarter?

Chinese researchers have achieved a breakthrough that sidesteps the conventional AI playbook of more GPUs, bigger data centers, and exponential power consumption. Instead, they've linked standard electronic chips with high-speed optical interconnects, reimagining how data travels and processes.

🔶 Five FPGA chips with optical transceivers processed 1,000 images in 105 microseconds - 150x faster than a commercial GPU

🔶 The optical system used less than one-ninth of the GPU's power

🔶 Optical switching enables data to flow between chips like an assembly line, bypassing memory bottlenecks that have long throttled performance

Smarter connectivity outperforms sheer hardware volume—offering faster results at a fraction of the energy cost.
