Uncommitted National Movement made it clear that they will not endorse Vice President Kamala Harris for the US presidency, but more importantly, that they discourage any moves that could lead to a second Trump administration - namely voting for a third party candidate.

They’re running interference for the Democrats. They don’t “endorse” Kamala, but say Trump must be stopped and don’t vote third party. Hmm…

Why are they doing this?

This despite Green Party candidate Jill Stein being the favourite among Muslim-American voters in at least three swing states, and standing almost neck-and-neck with Harris nationwide, according to polling conducted late last month by the Council on American Islamic Relations.

Oh. Well that makes sense. Democrats are afraid of Jill Stein/Greens. According to liberal media/commentstors Stein a Russian puppet who is running the Green Party on Putin’s orders to hurt Democrats and help Trump.

I was going through my pictures folder and I saw this:

Apparently we should also send ammo, artillery and missiles to Lebanon, too. EU should take in Lebanese refugees and give them all 6 year work permits, free travel and monthly allowance. After all, that is what real democracies do when other sovereign countries are invaded.

But on a serious note. France has said back in June they’d support the Lebanese Army should they wish to move south to the border to stop the escalation. Then right before the incursion/invasion France told Israel not to do it or they will have to support the Lebanese Army militarily. I guess nobody takes France seriously since their “send 2000 troops to Ukraine!” debacle. Lebanese Army is “repositioning and regrouping forces” in the south. France is nowhere to be seen and all they have managed to do is move a warship closer to Lebanon (or something like that, can’t find a link) and proposed a joke of a truce where Hezbollah moves 10km away from the border.

The “West” has lost its soft power on the world stage. Unlike the dominant Western narrative where Russia/Putin has created a dangerous and unsafe world where countries like China 👺 or Iran 👹 will start invading their neighbours, it is in fact Western-aligned Israel, the shining beacon of freedom and democracy in the Middle East with the most moral army in the world, that is genociding a people, killing hundreds of civilians in neighbouring countries, mistreating immigrants and generally being a violent apartheid state that isn’t afraid to murder their enemies and anyone around them no matter where they are in the world.

I imagine that suddenly the distinction between “war”, “invasion” and “special military operation” will become important and we’ll all be asked to mind the nuances…

If someone wants to play this game but can’t or doesn’t want to pay $25, let me know and I’ll upload it to mega or create a torrent.

It’s a friend-enemy distinction for them.

UA media is being their cool, cryptic self about it and redditors are eating it up.

I meant more like how including liberal premises of how the world works into media. But I guess that only means it was made by liberals with their worldview. I still experience it as propaganda though, maybe cause I’m just sick of it.

I often think Hezbollah should have attacked Israel on or right after October 7. But then I think “who am I to wish war, death and destruction upon the people of that region?” because that attack probably would have triggered a regional war with the involvement of the US. I think Iran has a big say in what Hezbollah does and they are afraid of Israel. And rightfully so, Israel has the ability to nuke Iran.

Killing the leadership of Hezbollah doesn’t make them any less effective. If the report is true, then new leadership is already in place. They know exactly who is to replace whom when these things happen.

And then you storm off to play the piano and solve math problems?

That’s pretty funny, and tragic.

NewPipe does.

Did someone use AI to write a whole book?

Her endorsement of Kamala Harris shut down that community real quick. Hasn’t been a post in the 15 days since Taylor’s post lol

I don’t understand the angle of “Punishment” because anyone who fucking says that has never spent a single day in jail. If you have, then you’ll know that spending an entire lifetime there is more than enough to punish you for whatever tf you did.

In this case the judicial angle isn’t punishment, but completion. They can now “close the case”. If he were released, then the case would still remain open (and unsolved), which looks bad on their record/statistics. Now they (the DA/police) got +1 solved/closed cases.

Another possibility is that the actual perpetrator is well-connected or known to the DA, so they threw this guy under the bus.

If you want to think “wtf?” for an hour and a half watch the documentary The Thin Blue Line (1988). The subject of the documentary was actually exonerated after the documentary came out (but received 0 dollars as compensation).

Spotify sucks. Youtube sucks. MP3s suck.

If you have an android phone, you can just seach for “Spotify premium apk” and you can find a cracked Spotify premium.

But if music is “your thing”, then there really is no substitute for the library of FLACs available on private torrent trackers for music. What.CD has been down 8 years now (rip), but RED and OPS exist.

You can pass an interview on IRC to get into the trackers. The interview is a short test about file formats, rules and transcoding, they give you the page where to learn it all.

For a lossy format alternative to mp3 try (ogg) vorbis.

Try private torrent trackers, they have rules on tags/labels as well as quality control. It is much better to rip from FLAC -> 256kbps mp3 than it is to rip from 320kbps mp3 -> 256kbps mp3.
