Surviving long enough for your enemies to canniblize themselves.

It’s odd how often that is an effective strategy.

Never kill yourself. Outliving your enemies is sweeter than any desert.

We could also use some of that here with how much Geert Wilders and the rest of the right wing are allowed to say obvious lies

That’s my hope as well

If it happens I will party for weeks on end, like it’s the end of a war

Like for non-social media brain poisoned people, it’s fairly clear

Even my dad, who’s voted Christian conservative for decades, is now considering voting for Volt because of how insane it’s gotten

Yeah, the VVD finally getting shit on is welcomed, but I deeply fear the demon that may take its place

God give Volt 10 seats and my life is yours to command

I must confess, these upcoming Dutch elections on October 29th have me worried, especially after the neo-Nazi riot in The Hague two weeks ago.

There’s so many issues in the Netherlands right now, and none of the right wing parties will solve them, and yet the voters still want right wing parties.

My god.

“Watson said she saw agents dragging residents, including kids, out of the building without any clothes on and into U-Haul vans. Kids were separated from their mothers…’It was heartbreaking to watch…seeing kids coming out buck naked and taken from their mothers, it was horrible.’”

I find it interesting they double down on it not being theft… only to argue that actors unionizing and striking contracts to prevent AI from stealing their likeness is a point in its favor

Like what?

heggseth's weird podcast rant (delivered to 800 generals and admirals for some reason) is just another sign of how this is a tv presidency. they don't really know how to do policy. their instinct is theater. encounter a problem? put on a spectacle

I shall join you in wishing that

Because seriously this was just damn absurd, and that really should have marked the point at which we realized we shouldn't get so buddy-buddy witht he Saudis

Absolute all-timer sentence in today's @nytimes.com
"some legal experts have called it a crime to summarily execute civilians" says today's New York Times, continuing their long tradition of whitewashing fascism

Only an administration intent on committing war crimes in the present and future would stoop to calling Wounded Knee a "battle" rather than what it truly was: a massacre of over 250 Lakotas, mainly women, children, and the elderly. 1/

I feel like in so many other Gundam shows, the (teenage) protagonist piloting mobile suits and injuring and killing people is generally somewhat glossed over by their peers, but I feel like Shahkti feels very realistically horrified, which helps sell the horrors to the viewer.

So I've started watching Victory Gundam, 4 episodes in, and I really like it so far, one element in particular.

The utter horror of Shahkti at seeing Uso pilot a mobile suit and kill people, which she seemingly feels from afar. She feels very intentionally like Lalah-esque newtype, to great effect.
Victory Gundam Ep 4., Shahkti asking Uso what he's doing Victory Gundam Ep 4., Shahkti saying "This mobile suit they call victory..." Victory Gundam Ep 4., Shahkti saying "It may have possessed Uso" Victory Gundam Ep 2., Shahkti reacting in horror to Uso destroying a mobile suit.

It’s one thing that the people in charge are fascists and cruel idiots. It’s insult to injury that they also have such tacky and bad taste.
