The tortoise lays on its back, its belly baking in the hot sun, beating its legs trying to turn itself over, but it can't. Not without your help. But you're not helping.

Are brainwaves and all that sort of stuff pseudoscience or is it legitimate? You know this whole thing of being able to meditate and get into different brain states.

Stoners are always talking about this kind of shit, and although they are as friendly a bunch as you would like to meet, I never found them the most persuasive.

history of western civ for starters?

philosophy?

i mean if you havent grokked yet (or at least betray a modicum of respect for) that any shards of rights you have ever had essentially boil down to the sovereignty of God cast in a christian framework then you got some fucking reading to do.

also, the absolute ignorance in your "we the people dont get to decide what america is" also reveals either knee-jerk emotional response or unsalvagable retardation -

there is plenty of substance to jump start your broken mental engine in that fuentes video i sent you but you arent a serious person and somehow think that people should just let you bull your way around the china shop unmolested... which is also dumb.

why is this exactly the intellectual equivalent a pack of niggers looting an apple store?

perhaps you will never know... but see thats your loss and not something other men need, nor are under any obligation, to correct for you.

The rub is I haven’t seen evidence that the Federal government ran the op. I think “Fedsurrection” is a distraction

There’s subtlety to the revolution here

I can’t shut up about Jan 6 being a theater performance, and I have receipts

Let’s make war unaffordable again.

Basically all vegetable oils are shit. They were orignially machine oils made from crop waste. They have to be leeched & dissolved out with acetone & bleached to eliminate the stink. They really only started being added to foods as a form of quality shrinkflation during the 70s. And govt lobbying & corp marketing worked to frame them as healthy alternatives.

Canola oil (rapeseed oil)

Soybean oil

Corn oil

Sunflower oil

Safflower oil

Sesame oil

Grapeseed oil

Cottonseed oil

Palm kernal oil

Etc

The possible exceptions are:

Coconut oil

Avocado oil

& maybe "first cold press" extra virgin olive oil (tastes like shit IMO)

Hard to know if you're really getting what it says on the label with most olive oil (you're probably not). Avocado oil likely suffers from similar issues.

Best oils to cook with:

Beef tallow

Duck fat

Lard (bacon grease)

Real butter

Coconut oil

Lets break the situation down:

When HAMAS has set up shop in such a way that they have all of their facilities under the feet of civil society and indeed are known to use civilians and civilian facilities as shields from attacks, there is no preventing harm to civilians or civilian facilities, even treaty-protected facilities (like al-Shifa). This doesn't necessarily mean that they are targeting civilians, but it's a fact of the matter that HAMAS profits off the civilian dead and that it's impossible to wage warfare in an urban area without harm to civilians.

Also, keep in mind that

1) The military response happened exactly as a response to the 7th of October attack. HAMAS knew that it would be coming, and didn't give a damn. Any school child could see it coming.

2) HAMAS has made NO civilian protection facilities in case of war; no bomb shelters, no emergency stockpiles of food, water or medical supplies - it's all been up to civilians themselves to stock up. They even dug up water mains that were laid down with foreign aid to make rockets out of them; shelling Israel is s higher priority than providing the Gazan population with essential infrastructure.

3) The tunnel network under Gaza is HAMAS use only - no civilians allowed to seek cover there.

4) Yes, the UN is very, /very/ focused on Gaza, with the hand-wringing cocksucker Guiterrez in the spotlight constantly, most likely because the UNRWA has been a money funnel for HAMAS for years and this has been going on on his watch.

In fact, it's quite peculiar to contemplate that for a /global/ organisation, approximately half of the total UN budget goes to the UNRWA which purportedly services a population of 2 million vs the interests of the ~8 billion humans of the whole planet. A striking contrast in priorities.

Now, it's not like I'm not aware that there is plenty wrong with Israelis and their doings and dealings over the past 75 years; there is lots to criticise Israel for and in fact I've done that a lot in the past, and still do.

However, this current war is a clear cut case of justified warfare on the part of Israel. You don't sit with your hands in your lap after 1200 civilians were brutally slaughtered by insurgents from a hostile neighbour.

The best possible liberation of the Palestinian people requires that all of the HAMAS rabid dogs face a bullet or the gallows, and the Gang of Four at the top of HAMAS that have enriched themselves at the expense of the Palestinians all should have their heads cut off and displayed on spikes at the Gaza city limits as a warning to others.

As for Netanyahu, he is done, that is just a matter of time and he will also get what's coming to him.

"Joe Biden's genocide" all of a sudden?

I'm no fan of the retirement home candidate, but you're giving him too much credit.

Also, it's not a genocide. It's a disgusting, brutal war with many civilian casualties, but that doesn't make it a genocide.
