poverty, precarity, material instability and an enforced, artificial scarcity-- these are all forms of invisible violence that animate our society; they must be repudiatiated, and torn down. everything that we do should be animated by this goal.
@majidmanzarpour@OpenAI What I don't understand for the life of me is why so many people and immediately look for reasons to knock this or poo poo it or whatever rather than look for reasons to feel optimistic about it or simply acknowledge just how cool it is.
A vote for ANYONE is a vote for the system, a vote for genocide, a vote for imperialism and a vote for slavery.
A vote for ANYONE is a vote that gives the government the CONSENT OF THE GOVERNED.
The system is begging to collapse. Have some dignity and just let it.
In the ancient lands of olive trees, the heart of Palestine beats, day and night. It is a story of resilience, hope, and determination, even in the face of adversity. From the shores of Gaza to the hills of the West Bank, it is a story of the strength that time has instilled.
"Anyone who wants to thwart the establishment of a Palestinian state has to support bolstering Hamas and transferring money to Hamas," Netanyahu told his Likud party's Knesset members in March 2019. "This is part of our strategy"

Everytime the Palestinians fight, they are met with brutal retaliation. Sons, daughters, fathers, mothers killed.
They are exhausted, beaten, battered, starved, culled, and expected to just get tired, quit, and rot in their open air prison. Until they lose the will to life itself, wither, and die.
But they simply do not give up. Their will, driven by righteous fury, simply cannot be broken. Nothing has worked, and nothing will ever work.
Against all physical odds, they fight for their honor. Nothing deters them. When they fail, they still keep coming back. It reminds me of how Josephus described the resolve of Judeans against Roman occupiers:
"They will much rather suffer the greatest tortures and let their friends and relations be tortured than call a man their lord."
They simply will not submit. Against all demonstrations of the physical force of modern technology, their spirit cannot be broken. Because their spirit is simple:
Fight, against all odds, for justice.
For them, life is resistance and resistance is life. From cradle to grave. There is no life without truth, beauty and justice- therefore, when the Empire of Lies imposes ugliness and injustice upon them, life becomes war.
This is why I don't fear the plans of the elites. The Palestinians prove that human will, when united with the righteous cause of a people, cannot be broken.
Israel has pioneered technologies which are meant to be used, and are starting to be used, against Western populations increasingly unemployed and hopeless because of automation.
The Palestinaisn proved that the cause of Western elites is vain. Humanity will win.
If you could get along without King George, you can get along without King John Rockefeller. Political liberty without economic freedom is a myth. Political liberty is rooted in economic freedom. The man who controls and owns the means that sustain my life, owns and controls me.
Everything is so much more mundane and pathetic than people want to admit for misguided ego-defense reasons. And their failure to properly appreciate and honor this fact is the main source of their moral cowardice and spiritual corruption.
Every problem in America society will be blamed on the Chinese while US elites crash the economy and start multiple for profit wars as a way to cover for a failing economic model. The Ukraine fiasco is the first of many. We’re heading back to Syria now to blow that up more.
Almost like a war against Russia had already been prepared for. Almost like the western empire knew its continuous reckless provocations could press Putin into choosing war as the least bad of two bad options.
And now there's a proxy war the US admits advances its strategic aims.
