  • I do not think you made the fake tweet. I know that you found it on reddit or something. I figured you thought the tweet was real when you posted it. I didn’t say that the fake tweet is homophobic. I said it’s weird that whoever created the tweet imagined a scenario where a political figure frequently touches their anus. The tweet implies that Charlie does it all the time. The tweet could have simply said that he doesn’t wash his hands, but it went into more explicit detail.

    I just wanted people to know that it’s probably a fake tweet. It’s not on his twitter page. It was made by some redditor. There’s nothing wrong with acknowledging that the tweet is fake. There is an abundance of things to criticize Charlie Kirk about. Likethat he does tours where he debates young college students is very embarrassing. He chooses to set up arguments with people who are inexperienced in politics so that he has an advantage in the conversation.






  • There is a mythology that follows computers hackers. People have a tendency to view computer hackers as having real life super powers. People dream that a hacker can save them by erasing their debts or toppling a bad government.

    I think Hexbears want to believe that DPRK Hackers are doing vigilante justice because it sounds cool. It’s a fun idea. I don’t think that users are saying it in a way that is disrespectful.

    I think there’s probably a mix of truth. It is very likely that the US has slandered DPRK for crimes that they did not commit. There’s been dozens of news stories about alleged North Korean Hackers, some of them could be fabricated.

    In this particular story, I think it could be real because the US also charged 6 Chinese nationals. When China’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs was asked about the charges, the spokesperson said that China opposes the sanctions and will defend the rights of Chinese nationals. My interpretation is that China is not denying that the Chinese nationals worked with DPRK nationals and instead saying they don’t respect US sanctions, which is cool.

    AFP: The U.S. Justice Department said yesterday that it has taken down a network that allegedly helped North Koreans obtain remote IT work with companies to raise funds for the country’s weapons program. Six Chinese nationals and two Taiwan citizens have been indicted for their involvement. Does the Foreign Ministry have a comment on this?

    Mao Ning: China opposes unilateral sanctions that have no basis in international law or authorization of the UN Security Council. We will do what is necessary to defend the legitimate and lawful rights and interests of Chinese nationals.

  • I believe the context of this DPRK press statement is in response to the article below.

    The U.S. Department of Justice and FBI on Monday announced an arrest and indictments targeting North Korea’s so-called “IT worker” program, where North Koreans obtain remote IT-related positions at more than 100 U.S. companies, and use that access to steal money and information from a host of companies around the world.

    The North Korean workers used compromised identities of more than 80 U.S. citizens to obtain remote jobs at more than 100 U.S. companies and caused more than $3 million in legal fees, remediation and other costs, according to the DOJ.

    The two men, along with four other unnamed U.S. “facilitators,” assisted the North Koreans by procuring and operating laptops used by the overseas workers, created financial accounts to receive money earned by the workers to be sent back to North Korea, and created shell companies to make the workers appear more authentic, according to the DOJ, earning nearly $700,000 from the scheme for themselves.

    Federal prosecutors also indicted six Chinese nationals and two Taiwanese nationals for alleged roles in the operation. China would take all necessary measures to safeguard the rights and interests of its citizens, the country’s foreign ministry spokesperson Mao Ning told reporters at a regular news briefing on Tuesday.

  • When thinking about the level of technology in DPRK, I want people to remember Israel’s pager attack on Lebanon. Israel made a whole fake pager company to sell Lebanon pagers which had bombs inside of them.

    The US is still an active aggressor towards DPRK. US-ROK-Japan stages active military drills to practice war against DPRK, twice every year, Ulchi Freedom Guardian.

    DPRK has to be skeptical towards western technology because the US will hide malice within the technology. If not literal explosives, then likely spyware or other malware.

    DPRK has been receiving new technology from new trade agreements with Russia starting 2023-2024.







  • I think what is telling about the Haaretz article is that they try to paint the whole situation as being caused by an accident, as if the the systematic massacre of Palestinians is not the intended function of the IOF.

    The article continuously states that the IOF militants are confused about why they firing at civilians. The whole article is written as if there was an event of mass amnesia. There’s a quote in the middle of the article which says that war crimes may be ideologically motivated but then the article never investigates further. “My greatest fear is that the shooting and harm to civilians in Gaza aren’t the result of operational necessity or poor judgment, but rather the product of an ideology held by field commanders, which they pass down to the troops as an operational plan.” Only a brief moment of self awareness.

    It’s good that an Israeli newspaper admits that the Israel is doing a war crimes, however the tone of the article is still sympathetic towards the Israeli militants.


  • This content is paywalled and I’m not linking the archive link to the site; Haaretz is one of the few news organizations (if not the only one) willing to talk about what’s being done in a critical manner. Any support you can provide, you should.

    What are you saying? Haaretz is an Israeli newspaper and openly Zionist, although more liberal than other Israeli newspapers. If the GHF aid traps are being reported as bad by Haaretz, then you should imagine that they are so much worse than that. Sometimes Haaretz will report something that is honest, like when they reported that the Hannibal Directive was used on October 7.

    I think today is the first day that Haaretz has reported the GHF aid traps are massacring Palestinians. Other news sources have been reporting it daily for over a month. I’ve posted multiple articles about it. I’ve seen it reported by Al Jazeera, Drop Site News, Zeteo News.

    ///

    Over 2 weeks ago, Zeteo published this anonymous testimony of a US mercenary, who was payed to work at a GHF aid trap. The testimony is someone who is probably a chud, foolishly they thought they were going to help people, but decided to leak the testimony when they saw how the aid sites were death traps. Zeteo is founded by former MSNBC anchor Mehdi Hasan.

    This idea that the Israeli military isn’t involved is bullshit. They’re very much involved. They have offices in our compounds. We share our radio communications with them. The higher-ups claim the Israeli military is not involved, but it feels like they’re the man behind the curtain. Sure, they’re not on-site with us, but their snipers and tanks are just hundreds of meters away. You can hear them shooting all day.

    One episode sticks with me. We were monitoring an empty site all day; sometime after dark, dozens of flatbed trucks finally brought aid. The Israeli military soon radioed in that 200 to 300 civilians a couple of kilometers (less than two miles) north were approaching. We then observed an Israeli drone go out there.

    The generous interpretation? Maybe the Israelis were firing between our position and the people in order to keep them from moving forward. I don’t think that’s the case. After all, tanks fire all day long near these aid sites. Snipers fire from what used to be a hospital. Bombs and bullets fly all day long in one direction – toward Palestinians.

    We know the Israeli military has been enforcing curfews in some parts of Gaza. I would not be surprised if the aid was delivered at night deliberately, given it would then draw people out, at which point they could be fired on as combatants, even though they weren’t. It’s very clear that the Israeli military will take any opportunity available to fire.

    People sometimes have to travel miles to get to the sites – and that means through Israeli-controlled areas. Any excuse the military can come up with to say someone is a threat, they’ll take. There’s not really any international media in these areas, and the West doesn’t really want to believe the Palestinian media, so you get to this point where the truth itself is murky. All the while, all I’ve heard all day is Israeli tanks, machine guns, snipers, and bombs.

    But never any fire from the opposite direction.
