125 AD - 1947 AD never happened

The Chinese built a giant fan

Dad?

The democrats could have linked arms to causing likuds downfall and basically kept the status quo. It’s so confusing why they didn’t beyond incompetence.

Bibi has been actively working against the democrats since Obama

Pretty awesome if Putin pulled this off. Would be the largest strategic victory for a US enemy since Osama Bin Laden made the empire kill itself with 9/11

That whole January before Covid was the death of any left leaning electoral path. The squad and Liz Warren just fucked the Bernie runaway candidate moment. Guy could’ve ran away with primary before South Carolina if they didn’t become the weirdest people overnight.

Feeling someone deserves more and having a shit fucking plan to solve it are two different things. We don’t need to be romantic about this

The writers pushing for the strike were the ones who could make bank on residual payment on streaming, not the ones struggling to find work.

2021 and 2022 were peak years in the industry. Cutbacks happened to time out exactly with the WGA pushing to strike. Scripts were saved and shelved to be produced somewhere else, because writers have no control over the industry.

And to anyone that says blame the producers. No, the Writers are morons. They do not control any industry, capital, or production, they do not even control their scripts. They essentially are America putting sanctions on Russia, and Russia just moving its economy towards Asia.

WGA are not longshoreman, they write fucking jokes and parts of scripts collaboratively in a room that are then owned by the production company. The moment they pulled out of doing this, producers just moved to other countries, or used old scripts and kept chugging along.

If IATSE, or Teamsters went on strike, production would actually come to a full stop. WGA just made things slowdown and allowed the AMPTP to plan out how they were gonna fuck all the other unions long term and cut cost. Penguin, Hpuse of Dragon, Dune, all got made during the strike. The money makers for the studios. These stupid fucks just got romantic and lib about what unions can do.

Say whatever you want, but these people are not my class, these people are not thinking about the proletariat, these people do not understand where there is actually power in a union. They are worthless

Wobblies wanted one big union so everyone could negotiate together, and strike together. Craft unions, like on a film set, lead to separate contract negotiations between different departments every year. In 2021 my union was pushed to not strike by other unions for the “guilt” of stopping work. 2 years later the WGA and SAG decided stopping work was fine.

I feel like many of us, in our desire to live in a functional society, fail to take into effect that most people just don’t have faith in the for profit healthcare system, and that supersedes a lot of the actual belief on medicine and science.

Not even on the conspiratorial side, but most people’s thoughts when you say “Doctors appointment” are Co-pays, deductibles, out of network, needing referrals to see certain specialists when you are certain what the issue is, doctors hours only being during work hours. It’s an absolute headache, and make people think “eh I’ll risk it” for most of their health outcomes.

Baijiu redbull was my go to there, but all the locals love brandy

Anyone watch Captain Report for western concensus? Guy is referring to Israeli strategy as holding Palestinians in a fish tank……

The most delusional and propagandized people on earth

I have leaned to all 3 possibilities (Ukraine, Russia, Neglect), because there were pros and cons to both sides because of it.

Then when the NYtimes wrote an article saying Russia did it, I felt the overwhelming sense that some force allied with Ukraine did it. Whether it was done by the state or some extremists I still don’t know.

I feel cutting off Crimean water supply, and then cutting off the land bridge to Crimea might have been the thought process for the AFU to have a decisive victory.

Just wondering, who do you think blew up the dam right before the counter offensive began?

Since they ended up attacking Russian soil anyway, Why didn’t they just do the Ukrainian counter offensive against Kursk or Transnistria then? Were they just high on their own supply after the Russian withdrawal from Kharkiv and Kherson?

I mean yes, but can you be suprised at this point?

I do think it’s being underplayed how much Trump is doing identity politics for white folks though.

Like his emojis should be🦅🇺🇸🤠

My grandpa was drafted right before Korea ended and he was also good at tennis. In the 50s he guarded operational plans and war gaming materials at an army base in Florida, mainly because it allowed the CO to have an elite tennis partner. He died a decade ago, but from conversations were with him, Israel and Saudi Arabia were already at the primacy for places America looked for alliances. So he probably isn’t wrong about where they were by 1970

The Volga Germans are evidence we deserve the Caspian Sea!

It makes me think of nukes dropping on St Pete and Moscow and CNN reporting it as an assassination attempt on Putin
