  • Edit: wording


    What part of their wont be another opportunity to vote for any party under a dictatorship is so hard to grasp?

    Fearmongering is always used to keep the working class stuck voting for the duopoly; I am not nor do I support the duopoly.

    Voting out of fear is much worse for our society.

  • “I shall not go to the polls. I have not registered. I believe that democracy has so far disappeared in the United States that no 'two evils' exist. There is but one evil party with two names, and...
  • Third parties are the long-term solution to building up the working-class grassroots movements.

    The fearmongering every four years only works on those voting for the duopoly; it has been used for many decades, the quote being an example of the status quo continuing.

    We must demand higher standards from our politicians, first by not voting out of fear and working toward creating a better future outside the duopoly.

    Rewarding genocide should not be an option, so third parties are the only choice some of us have.

    “Power concedes nothing without a demand. It never did and it never will. Find out just what any people will quietly submit to and you have found out the exact measure of injustice and wrong which will be imposed upon them, and these will continue till they are resisted with either words or blows, or with both. The limits of tyrants are prescribed by the endurance of those whom they oppress.” ― Frederick Douglass

  • Our full, year-long investigation: How Israel killed hundreds of its own people on 7 October
  • Here’s the part where you form your opinion. The act of killing your own people to avoid a capture instinctively sounds terrible. But also consider what it means to be captured and likely tortured for an indeterminate time.

    “this is a sad tactic but it’s a part of war”

    "Friendly Fire" is a term used in military situations, but killing your own people on purpose, I do not see that as being a "sad tactic."

    The article explains what happens when Israelis are taken hostage; a hostage exchange happens, which Israel does not want to do; that is why the Hannibal Directive was used on October 7th with civilians.

    Since many were being taken hostage, while we also know how they were being treated by Hamas, the article explains and other interviews show what the hosatges said while being hostages of Hamas.

  • “I shall not go to the polls. I have not registered. I believe that democracy has so far disappeared in the United States that no 'two evils' exist. There is but one evil party with two names, and...
  • The quote is calling out the duopoly though, not just one or the other.

    People can vote or not vote if they want to; that is their right as well. Third parties are an option, though.

    Fascism is already here, with our police state and technofeudalism.

  • How Israel killed hundreds of its own people on 7 October [Asa Winstanley | The Electronic Intifada | 7 October 2024]

    >One year ago today Palestinian fighters led by Hamas launched an unprecedented military offensive out of the Gaza Strip.

    >The immediate goal was to inflict a shattering blow against Israel’s army bases and militarized settlements which have besieged Gaza’s inhabitants for decades – all of which are built on land that Palestinian families were expelled from in 1948.

    >The bigger goal was to shatter a status quo in which Israel, the United States and their accomplices believed they had effectively sidelined the Palestinian cause, and to bring that struggle for liberation back to the forefront of world attention.

    Tankies turn giddy over the radicalisation of a child. Already, the child is denying genocide, praising stalin, racist and celebrating violence
  • Genocide was brought up.

    A current genocide is ongoing with our funding and military help (United States).

    It might be a bit of a tangent, but I thought it would fit in that it shows that many people support and are against the Palestinian genocide as well.

    I disagree with your labels again; you seem to just be using such labels so you can continue to ignore and dismiss anyone that does not think like you want them to.

  • Even Israel is against a two-state solution and a one-state solution.

    Israel's goal has always been to remove all natives from Palestinian land.

    This conflict has been ongoing for many decades, while continuing to escalate, ceasefire, and negotiations should be the goal, but it seems WWIII might be closer to happening than negotiations happening again.

    Thanks for the reminder of this song:

    Oi! band formed after a hard drinking afternoon in 1997. At that time there were only three members. It was Jerome Reuter ROME, on drums and vocals, Tom Luciani on guitar and Muck on bass. After playing gigs here and there in some pubs of Luxembourg, a first little recording was released, a demo-tape called Cider Lane 77, of which a limited amount of copies were sold. After Muck left the band in 1999, the line-up had to be changed.

    The lyrics to The Skinflicks's song What I Am are a defiant statement of identity in the face of societal pressures to conform. The song emphasizes the importance of self-expression and the rejection of political ideologies that seek to control or manipulate individuals. The skinhead identity, according to the song, is about more than just fashion choices - it represents a rejection of both far-right and far-left political beliefs in favor of a distinct cultural identity.^[[1] https://sonichits.com/video/The_Skinflicks/What_I_Am]

  • I disagree; foreign policy has a lot to do with our country and what happens in other countries as well.

    Zionism =/= Judaism

    Many that are for censorship try to make it seem like it is, so continued support of genocide can continue, but we must not fall for their talking points. to make it seem like it is, so continued support of genocide can continue, but we must not fall for their talking points.

  • AT&T, Verizon reportedly hacked to target US govt wiretapping platform
  • Alt. Link: https://web.archive.org/web/20241007151423/https://www.bleepingcomputer.com/news/security/atandt-verizon-reportedly-hacked-to-target-us-govt-wiretapping-platform/


    Multiple U.S. broadband providers, including Verizon, AT&T, and Lumen Technologies, have been breached by a Chinese hacking group tracked as Salt Typhoon, the Wall Street Journal reports.

    It is unclear when the intrusion occurred, but WSJ cites people familiar with the matter, saying that "for months or longer, the hackers might have held access to network infrastructure used to cooperate with lawful U.S. requests for communications data."

    According to the WSJ, the attack was discovered in recent weeks and is being investigated by the U.S. government and security experts in the private sector.

    Salt Typhoon has been active since at least 2019 and is considered a sophisticated hacking group focusing on government entities and telecommunications companies typically in the Southeast Asia region.

    Security researchers also found that the threat actor attacked hotels, engineering companies, and law firms in Brazil, Burkina Faso, South Africa, Canada, Israel, France, Guatemala, Lithuania, Saudi Arabia, Taiwan, Thailand, and the United Kingdom.

    The hackers usually obtain initial access to the target network by exploiting vulnerabilities, such as the ProxyLogon vulnerabilities in Microsoft Exchange Server (CVE-2021-26855, CVE-2021-26857, CVE-2021-26858, and CVE-2021-27065).

    In previous attacks attributed to Salt Typhoon/Ghost Emperor, the threat actor used a custom backdoor called SparrowDoor, customized versions of the Mimikatz tool for extracting authentication data, and a Windows kernel-mode rootkit Demodex.

    Chinese APT hacking groups have been increasingly targeting U.S. and European networking devices and ISPs in cyberespionage attacks.

    In August, cybersecurity researchers at Lumen's Black Lotus Labs disclosed that the Chinese threat actors known as "Volt Typhoon" exploited a zero-day flaw in Versa Director to steal credentials and breach corporate networks. During these attacks, the threat actors breached multiple ISPs and MSPs in the U.S. and India, which is not believed to be related to the recent breaches.

    In September, Black Lotus Labs and law enforcement disrupted a massive Chinese botnet named "Raptor Train" that compromised over 260,000 SOHO routers, IP cameras with malware. This botnet was used by the "Flax Typhoon" threat actors for DDoS attacks and as a proxy to launch stealthy attacks on other organizations.

    While these attacks have been attributed to different Chinese hacking groups, they are believed to operate under the same umbrella, commonly sharing infrastructure and tools.

  • How To Roll A Blunt - Redman
  • Using Keni Burke’s “Risin' to the Top” as a backdrop, Redman provides an instructional guide on how to tightly pack weed inside of a cigar wrap or joint to enhance how high the smoker gets. Red also talks about the type of people that probably shouldn’t have access to rolling the blunt. The song was ranked #13 on Complex’s list of The Best Songs About Weed.^[[1] https://genius.com/Redman-how-to-roll-a-blunt-lyrics#about]


    Risin' to the Top (7" Version) · Keni Burke [03:43 | https://youtu.be/21kwgMDXIX0]

    Released in 1982 from the Changes album, its chart position was 63. This song was sampled several times and is considered Burke’s signature song. It was also released on RCA Records. The song was a defining hit for Burke, his best selling song, and showcases his work outside of Five Stairsteps. It was produced by the same artist. Along with the track “Hang Tight,” the song was moderately successful, becoming a major hit for Burke, and it brought success to its parent album, being the album’s only hit single. “Risin' To The Top” had a very electronic feel, with drums over guitar, strings and keyboards, and it became Burke’s best known track.^[[2] https://genius.com/Keni-burke-risin-to-the-top-lyrics]

  • Russia Has Decided 'At Highest Level' To Remove Taliban From Terrorist List, TASS Reports.
  • https://www.politico.eu/article/russia-remove-taliban-terrorist-list-vladimir-putin-envoy-zamir-kamulov/

    Russia's foreign ministry and security service "are putting finishing legal touches" on the removal, said Kamulov, adding that the final decision will "hopefully" be announced soon.

    "We once again appeal to Western countries with an urgent call to acknowledge responsibility for the post-conflict reconstruction of Afghanistan, lift sanctions restrictions, and return Kabul's appropriated assets," he said during the opening remarks of the meeting, where Taliban's Foreign Minister Amir Khan Muttaqi had also been present.

    Russia has slowly been normalizing relations with the Taliban after it seized power in Afghanistan in 2021 following the withdrawal of the U.S. forces after 20 years of war. Since then, the Taliban has imposed harsh restrictive laws on women in particular, including banning them from speaking in public.

    No international government has recognized the Taliban administration, but China and United Arab Emirates have accepted its ambassadors in their capitals.
