Truly the only good reason to participate in social media 💚

One of the best ones is here now. Years ago I saw a really cool movie called Punisher: War Zone. I had to look up who made it. One thing led to another and pretty soon I was following Lexi on social media and becoming more and more angry about the horrors thrown at Palestine every day.

"Decolonization is the veritable creation of new men. But this creation owes nothing of its legitimacy to any supernatural power; the “thing” which has been colonized becomes man during the same process by which it frees itself"

- Frantz Fanon, 1963.

"A freedom fighter learns the hard way that it is the oppressor who defines the nature of the struggle, and the oppressed is often left no recourse but to use methods that mirror those of the oppressor."

Western liberals and leftists support resistance as long as it's a photogenic rock throwing: courageous but ultimately a signifier of defeat.

This 'fetishism of defeat' reveals the deeper commitment they have to imperialism, but they cannot admit the contradiction.

US / "Israel" settler-colonial legal strategy:

- Make ceasefire agreement.

- Add shit to it till it is unacceptable to Hamas.

- Demonize Hamas as the rejectors.

- Use veto power to unilaterally block ceasefires resolutions at the UN.

Lebanon
Since 2006 Israel has violated UN Resolution 1701 at least 33,000 times. The UN is a tool of Western Imperialism hence the careful wording of Article 1 enabling "Israeli" terrorism under the protective mantle of "defense".

The "only democracy in the Middle East"?

The Zionist Entity's voting base consists of occupiers who live in stolen properties. Even under the Victorian "right to vote" based on property the "Israel" is not a democracy. It is a Jewish Fascist ethno-state inspired by Begin / Jabotinsky / Mussolini.

Clifford Longley's book Chosen People (2002) covers the connections between US "exceptionalism" and the Protestant Reformation / Calvinism in generating superiority as a new "chosen people" (just like the Jews).

A 2014 US Air Force Research Laboratory-funded project studied how to use social media to control people like drones using a decentralized influence method "to influence [a] social group to a common desired state" without "isolating peers".
