.ml is notorious for arbitrary bans so I wouldn’t think too much about it. There are active alternatives for most (but probably not all) communities hosted there. Criticizing Russia there is also a great way to get in trouble with the admins because they’re explicitly tankies.

I mean not surprising but come on Germany grow some spine.

In my native language I always say “[it] is logical” because we don’t have a word or phrase that means “makes sense” and I’m pretty sure literally nobody other than me does this.

“Free candy”

Come the fuck on Guardian you just lopped off the bad half of that statement. Israel says new Gaza offensive will continue until all hostages released and all threats to residents of the south [of Israel] are removed.

Should be the same for Christians and Jews, but for Muslims the answer is absolutely not.

pressuring them to ease up.

Sure did Palestine a lot of good with that pressure.

More seriously, Biden never seriously pressured Israel to do (or not do) anything; it’s always been pretty please with that genocidal fart, and pretty please never worked with Israel.

As for the groups that were lucky enough to benefit from democrat cronyism, I genuinely feel sorry for them.

For most of the world, there is no appreciable difference.

Yeah, if I squint hard enough it does seem like Poland defending their border makes them the inhuman ones.

Defending their border from… unarmed migrants?

I mean, this attack would probably still be happening but at least under her protesting would be legal.

Okay, and? If that’s your pitch for “protest voters screwed over Gaza” it definitely ain’t convincing.

معلش.

The Houthi drone and ballistic missile do, however, care how much they’re afraid of American imperialism. They certainly seem to be willing to pick that fight.

Unfortunately no; this is normal military lingo.

“Book from a whistleblower - titled ‘Meta’ - that was declined from being promoted is now a best seller on Amazon”

No? "Book from a whistleblower that Meta blocked from being promoted is now a best seller on Amazon ".

*Kurdish military prowess and the sheer military incompetence of Middle Eastern dictatorships.

I won’t pretend I know what, if anything, is going on in the Houthi leadership’s heads, but I doubt it’s that simple. As a government without much international recognition, there’s a good chance they can’t just afford to look weak, for example. I guess we’ll have to wait and see.

Fair enough. Now the question is whether China can get their foot in the door in the same way America did, but if they play up the anti-imperialism aspect it should ve possible.

And get Bernie’d? We’ve seen this movie before.

If old democratic leadership can be cast off

It can’t. Absolutely not happening.

I think it’s been established that the Houthis are not afraid of American imperialism. I mean they’re part of the Axis of Resistance, not the Axis of Acquiescence.
