  • /c/news mod: No more news on Charlie Kirk. This is an international news mega.

    MEP: I’m about to ruin this mod’s whole career.

    🇪🇺 The European Parliament rejected a request for a moment of silence to honor slain U.S. conservative influencer Charlie Kirk. The initiative was proposed by right-wing MEP Charlie Weimers, who described Kirk as a ‘loving father and patriot’ and sought to symbolize that free speech cannot be extinguished. However, European Parliament President Roberta Metsola denied the request, explaining that minutes of silence are solely her prerogative and are only held at the opening of plenary sessions, which had already passed earlier in the week. When Weimers tried to yield his remaining speaking time to observe the silence, Vice President Katarina Barley interrupted, triggering protests including desk banging and shouting from right-wing MEPs in the chamber. All requests for a moment of silence were denied, eliciting a strong backlash among some members.



  • Love the AI slop machine speculating that he has a stroke:

    He’s having a mini stroke is my bet. I’m a nurse. It’s a TIA.

    A TIA (Transient Ischemic Attack) is sometimes called a “mini-stroke.” It happens when blood flow to part of the brain is temporarily blocked but then restored quickly, usually within minutes to a couple of hours. Unlike a stroke, a TIA doesn’t cause permanent brain damage — but it’s a serious warning sign.

    A TIA is a medical emergency.

    TIAs are temporary, but they’re not harmless. They’re often the brain’s “warning shot” that a major stroke could be coming.

    ✅ Rule of thumb: If it looks like a stroke, it is a stroke — until proven otherwise. Only doctors with imaging can tell if it’s a TIA.

    Trump has likely been having them frequently, and his doctors are very aware. His jacket is buttoned because he’s wearing a monitor, I’d bet.





  • Hasan needed security yesterday. I’m glad he finally has the wake up call to realize that some fascist could simply walk up to him and mag dump him while he’s at a live event, and the lack of security means that the fascist murderer can actually make it out alive and raise $1M on their fascist version of gofundme.

    If he (or any activist) is serious about their leftist ideology, they need to either be armed themselves or hire armed security. The step after that is to form a paramilitary because there has to be a political cost should he or any other activist gets murdered by fascists or the state. The BPP called this principle “democratic distribution of the pain.” If cops murder BPP cadre, then BPP cadre go cop-hunting.

    This extends to politicians like Mamdani. Like I said before, he basically needs a paramilitary if he’s actually serious about what he wants to do. Otherwise, the NYPD will just threaten to murder his family until he bends the knee. The point of the paramilitary is not just to protect him, but also to inflict a political cost on the NYPD should they decide to murder his family.









  • No, it’s even worse than that.

    ROK/US Combined Forces Command (CFC) is a joint warfighting headquarters comprising the Republic of Korea Armed Forces and United States Forces Korea. It was established in 1978. During wartime it would serve as the operational command headquarters for all of the South Korean and U.S. ground, air, sea (including Marine) and special operations forces fighting on the Korean peninsula.

    The CFC is commanded by a four-star U.S. Army general, with a four-star ROK Army general as deputy commander.

    Despite the impression of total American control of the Republic of Korea’s armed forces via the CFC, during peacetime the Korean units are wholly independent. Only during wartime would the Korean military come under the operational command of the CFC.

    The ROK only has an independent military in times of peace when they don’t actually need to use it, but in times of war, the ROK military has a US general at the top of its command structure. And the ROK having an “independent” military during peacetime was pretty recent too. Before, the ROK military just had a US general at the top period.
