Guys, just saying but there is a solution to this issue: scientific socialism.

Damn I wonder why they are displaced. No one to blame for sure.
derelicta··on Midnight train from GA: A view of America from the tracks as airports struggle
I rode the amtrak from NYC, to DC then finally to Atlanta. Beautiful all the way, but incredibly slow, and the train "station" at Atlanta is left to be desired to say the last.
derelicta··on We haven't seen the worst of what gambling and prediction markets will do
You must be confused. Most of the products that end in your hands were made by hard working folks from the Global South. All Westerers do is own the companies, the labour and the politicians from those countries. But don't worry, sooner rather than later, even Westerners will have to relearn what working truly means.
derelicta··on Slovenian officials blame Israeli firm Black Cube for trying to manipulate vote
Remember; its not the tail that is wagging the dog. Behind every Israeli operation hides an American one.

A shame local companies where I am from have year long backlogs.

Have Westerners ever thought of working and creating real value instead of betting on the death of little children?

derelicta··on Judge orders restoration of Voice of America
VoA is for an international audience whilst Fox News, CNN & co are for the American public. Hollywood is mixed.
derelicta··on Palestinian boy, 12, describes how Israeli forces killed his family in car
Remember; they are punishing Palestinian for wanting to be free and sovereign. To "LIVE FREE OR DIE" is definitively more than a motto to them.

So the politicians mired in pedophilia scandals suddenly care about the Children huh?

In politics, assume politicians are evil, not stupid.
derelicta··on Iran attacks RAF base in Cyprus, an EU country
Pure speculation. May I suggest Arabs are not the subhuman beasts that your press and universities claim to be?
derelicta··on Iran attacks RAF base in Cyprus, an EU country
Equating Iran's struggle against a genocide in Palestine with Imperialism is misinformed at best, criminal at worst. Either way, only a zionist could say that, which makes this conversation completely useless.
derelicta··on Iran attacks RAF base in Cyprus, an EU country
Which Republic are we talking about? The Islamic Republic or the western "republics"?
derelicta··on Iran attacks RAF base in Cyprus, an EU country
Yes that is true. The UK contributes to the defense operations of the imperial aggressors against the Republic.
derelicta··on Iran attacks RAF base in Cyprus, an EU country
These countries are not sovereign states. They are western puppets with western armies on their territory. It makes these attacks only legitimate.
derelicta··on Iran attacks RAF base in Cyprus, an EU country
Well, actually yes they did contribute to the attack on the Republic. See[1].

derelicta··on I found a vulnerability. they found a lawyer
The absolute hell that is looking for a place to live in the UK. I remember having to submit a copy of my passport to one of those letting agencies. I don't even know how they process it and how it is stored, but I am convinced it's just stored on some random personal OneDrive at this point.
derelicta··on US plans online portal to bypass content bans in Europe and elsewhere
Great! I sure hope it means Americans will stop censoring pro-Palestinian and pro-workers movements!
derelicta··on Palantir vs. the "Republik": US analytics firm takes magazine to court
Always a pleasure to see Republik being featured in the press ahah, even if its too social-democratic to my taste. I know they've been struggling for some time, so hopefully the Imperial Juggernaut that is Palantir won't manage to bleed them too severly.

The Epstein class is the capitalist class. It's important to name them correctly. Otherwise I fully agree.

As a marxist, I am obsessed about contradictions. I found two regarding the 402 sources that you've shown. I do not pretend to have read and understood all of them. I just scanned a couple titles, recognised a few famous newspapers.

1) Why is that that are very few if none of the sources you've linked are Islamic sources ? If Muslim people can recognise the plight of the Palestinian people, why can't they recognise the plight of the Uighurs?

2) Those sources are, for most of them, from countries that were extremely hostile to the idea of islamic and arabic independence movement. Why is that they wished for the continuation of Colonialism, wish for the destruction of the Palestinian people, and yet cheer for Uighur independence?

What we are facing here doesn't require spooks forcing journalists to write articles with a gun cocked against their head. This is gramscian cultural hegemony. Bourgeois journalists are reporting on those "facts" because it directly serves the interest of their wealthy Masters, and if we follow the rule of "don't bite the hand that feeds you" they would rarely if never contradict them.

derelicta··on Hong Kong pro-democracy tycoon Jimmy Lai gets 20 years' jail
1) I'm not Chinese, but I still have skin in the game for I am an internationlist. 2) Apart from a few google maps pictures, there are no pictures of those extermination camps. 3) Tibet has been part of China for centuries. Only since Mao landreforms that criminalised slavery have we been hearing about Tibet's "independence" movement. 4) If Xinjiang has concentration camps, then why are the Chinese allowing the UN , tourists and journalists in? Right now in Palestine, UN workers and journalists are shot on sight. Tourists are non existant. Muslim countries refuse to qualify any of the anti-terrorist measures as genocidal, but denounce the extermination campaign against the Palestinian people.

For Tibet, may I remind you the local population rose up against tyranny. That they requested assistance from their central govt into putting down rabid theocrats is only fair tbh. But as every time, when the people are fighting against criminals, the western press only gives the microphone to the said criminals, especially when the stolen property of those criminals is being freed (the property being humans). Also only fools still believe in a genocide in Xinjiang. Show me the camps. Show me the victims. Show me the refugees. Show me any muslim person genuinely outraged about it. I can show you plenty for Palestine, but for some reason for some western leftists, these people do not count.

Show one example of Chinese imperialism. Or soviet imperialism. Or Vietnamese imperialism. Or Cuban imperialism.

What's even scarier than such encounter, is that I personally know some people who would survive it. Unfortunately, I'm not one of them.
