Julgransplundring
A Warhammer 40 000 operation?
This must be disinfo. I mean, why would a Venezuelan security guard talk like this, even if it was true? It fits Trump´s narrative a bit too well. Even media outlets which seem to support the Maduro capture wonder whether the US had people on the inside. As in: the Venezuelan vice president and her brother.
I don´t doubt that the US is technologically more advanced than the "Bolivarian Republic", but everything goes smoother if you can count on inside information and treachery, rather than on...you know...an actual full scale war with boots on the ground. And much higher stakes!
Just ask Trump about Afghanistan...
Drama
Some fairly irrelevant YouTube/Internet drama I can´t help linking to. Don´t worry, I´ll be on my way soon enough...
Som man bäddar...

Jaha, då har vi åtta månader av paranoia om "valpåverkan" att se fram emot. Från samma personer som stödde globaliseringen när det begav sig. Men de klarar tydligen inte av det nya globala informationssamhället. LOL. "Vi har varit naiva", eller?
Visst, de kan kräva att Meta ska ta bort uppenbart gårdarikisk desinformation, whatever. Men det *är* naivt att tro att svenska väljare inte (på ett eller annat sätt) kommer att läsa/dela åsiktsyttringar på utländska sajter, legitima eller inte. Jag menar, att släcka ner Internet verkar inte ens fungera i fucking Iran!
Jag menar, det är nästan som om politik kanske borde handla om...jag vet inte...förbättra samhället eller något. Så att ingen bryr sig om de främmande opinionsyttringarna. Även om de kommer till just din lilla mobil.
Eller?
An uncomfortable truth
| Russian military blogger hiding against uncomfortable truths? |
Russia´s "special-military operation" against Ukraine has now lasted longer than the Soviet Union´s Great Fatherland War against Nazi Germany. Let that sink in. Russia can still win, of course, since it´s a war of attrition. And Russia has a larger population and less fickle allies. However, it´s certainly interesting that Putin can´t defeat Ukraine in the same time it took Stalin to defeat Hitler! It should be an uncomfortable truth for the "military bloggers" and their dreams of a Russian blitzkrieg against NATO...
Transnationell repression
Mot den kommunistiska diktaturens transnationella repression ställer vi den svenska statens nationella repression via statsbidrag. Hårda tag, gubbar! Okej, allvarligt talat. Den här nyheten var intressant. Särskilt som vår kära högerregering nyligen försökte kvasi-normalisera relationerna med just Eritrea. Vem vet, de kanske vill få fredspriset?
Eritreanska ortodoxa kyrkan nekas statsbidrag efter yttrande från Säpo
You don´t say
Somaliland forever
Does the Fourth International (FI) support al-Qaeda? Somehow, I doubt it. Yet, the article linked below was published in their magazine "International Viewpoint". It originally appeared in "L´Anticapitaliste", the publication of the NPA, the FI´s famed French section.
The article argues that Israel conspires with Somaliland to expel the entire population of Gaza to that particular country. No source is given for this truly remarkable statement. A conspiracy theory? Then, the piece expresses tacit support for Al-Shabab. Ahem, that´s an al-Qaeda ally...
How confused is the far left *exactly*? Here are two representative quotes.
>>>Beyond the upheaval of the regional order, this recognition opens a breach allowing for the expulsion of Palestinians, as acceptance of this population transfer seems to have been a condition for the recognition of the state.
>>>In their imperial symbiosis, Israeli and American leaders have been searching for several months for a territory capable of accommodating a significant portion of the Palestinian people in order to bring the Palestinian question to a definitive close.
>>>The recognition of Somaliland, coupled with promises of financial transfers, could encourage independence activists to accept this colonial project, although Al-Shabab militiamen are reminding them of the importance of preserving national unity and the duty of loyalty to the Palestinian community.

Gay, retarded and very, very British?
Is Spiked´s flirtation with Trumpite right-wing populism finally over? Did they really expect "British fair play" from *that* quarter? Or have they simply decided that the Trump Train isn´t lucrative anymore, and decided to strike out for greener pastures somewhere else? I mean, the U-turns of this outfit are near-legendary! Cough, cough, Living Marxism, cough cough.
The author predicts that the "Woke right" will call him "gay and retarded". LOL! Maybe, but I have to say that the meaningless insult "Woke right" is pretty "gay", if you must use homophobic internet slang. Or at least retarded...
Why can´t the right say that the death of Renee Good was a tragedy?
