Scottish rock group Primal Scream superimposed swastikas combined with Stars of David over the eyes of Netanyahu & former Israeli defense minister Gallant, as well as other global politicians, in on-stage graphics during a Monday night concert, leading a Jewish security group to file a police complaint.
They were playing at the historic Roundhouse venue in north London & performed their 2000 single “Swastika Eyes.”

I had a long ass fucking response typed out but then my phone died and I lost it. So you’re getting a shitty short summary.
I don’t think the west has learned any lesson if the United States thought they had been defeated militarily why the fuck did they park their most expensive death machines off of the coast of Venezuela? Trump just likes Putin and likes the idea of ending wars that’s why he’s rushing to end this war now. He also painted the Ukraine was as being a democrat war which also why I think he wants to end it. I also have no idea what weird fucking dirt Putin has on Trump but I know he has something. I don’t think Russia necessarily wants to keep the war going either to be honest and I think if they were forced to keep it going for another 3 years they would be pretty fucked.
I don’t know if the multi polar world is going to be all that its cracked up to be, but ya lets see. By the end of the century our global economy is going to shrink because of all the environmental damage we’ve done to the planet, all these wars aren’t going to slow down said destruction. So yeah I’m jealous that you have a positive view of the future because the way I see it the future is going to be more about surviving than thriving. I kinda envy the 20th century revolutionaries they got to have the hope that anything is possible in a world of endless opportunity where anything can be built. I feel like we have to come to terms with having less and less on a planet that was exploited more than it ever should have been just so a bunch of rich and powerful fucks could have their sex parties and yachts. Anyways this is a very shitty version of the much longer and more coherent post I had earlier. If you want I can send you a pdf of the book, IDK if everybody can open it because I downloaded it from the library.
Not what I’m saying. I’m saying other countries will see that the US isn’t potent enough, as it lacks it’s former industrial base, to enforce their interests militarily.
Venezuela isn’t as strong of an enemy as Russia. Russia has been up until the Ukraine conflict one of the largest weapons exporters. The recently released US NSS basically admits that the US overextended itself. They also got chased away by Yemen.
the US overextended themselves as admitted in the NSS. Putin having leverage over Trump with some blackmail is too conspiratorial/lib imo
True I agree. It’s definitely a tendency that exists.
Well first of all Russia was planning for war against the United States since atleast the 2010s I helped do some planning in my own way. The US and NATO armies in general had mainly been training for counter insurgency. Now thanks to this stupid war the war machine is shifting towards preparing for direct armed conflict with peer competitors. Is the US or NATO there yet? No, but thanks to this war the idiots are preparing for even more even more brutal wars.
You keep talking about imperialism being defeated but refuse to acknowledge that it’s going to be replaced by something just as bad if not worse. I’ll also repeat the fact that Russia currently supports and trains the Neo nazi movement in Europe just as much as the United States and the UK support the Neo Nazis in Ukraine, so fuck Russia. At the moment there is absolutely no left wing alternative in the west which for better or worse is still the richest part of the world and for now the largest producer of knowledge. Hell China needs us because if our markets were to collapse they wouldn’t be able to sell their shit. Even if China does overtake them I have little hope that they’ll be much better than the US any considering how quickly they threw the Palestinians under the bus.
This is why I have no side in any of this bullshit and neither should any leftist who isn’t some kind of political hack with an agenda. Currently the world is on a WW3 build up path and anybody stupid enough to cheer along either side and call themselves a leftist is hilarious to me. Anyways I’m done with this discussion because Lemmy has the exact same well akshually tendencies that Reddit does.
Viewing politics as a zero sum I win you loose game is the type of thinking that collapsing empires have.
