That works for me, too.
I didn't even post it because it's linked to Israel. It just reminded me of how our supposedly "free press" here in South Africa used one little snippet of de-contextualized footage to justify the police perpetrating mass-murder on striking mineworkers here all the way back in 2012.
To me, it just proves how our (allegedly) "respectable" mainstream media will blatantly lie to our faces as soon as the truth doesn't fit the interests of the status quo - and they will do so in a sustained manner.
So you only believe something if a Tucker Carlson-like talking head is spoonfeeding it to you from a perfectly lit studio?
I guess everything's working as designed, then.
Hell, even in church elections.
Okay. I'll give it to you - Finland allows it's population more democracy-like privileges than you'd find in most other countries, and it probably isn't even the only one that does that.
But tell me this... how many of the corporations Finnish people work for is democratically run?
which is what’s known as Democracy
Just because it's "known" as "democracy" because politicians and their crony media capitalists have been throwing the word around for a few centuries doesn't actually make it democracy.
It's never "small government" when it comes to funding pig.
What they call "AI" is only "intelligent" within a capitalist frame of reference, too.
I'm guessing you're having a real hard time understanding that there is absolutely NOTHING democratic about so-called "liberal democracy," eh?
Why is that? Is the new information clashing with your programming?
Nah. They should just make sure the checks bounce.
They should send Alex Jones a $1 "royalty" check every month - just so that he doesn't forget it.
So-called "liberal democracy" works pretty much the exact same way it does in Europe (or anywhere else) as it does in the US.
Ie, it's 95% capitalism and 5% fake democracy substitute (the ratios vary slightly but never by much). And, like "liberal democracy" everywhere, the 5% fake democracy substitute will be rapidly replaced with 5% very not-fake fascism if you threaten the 95% capitalism part in any way whatsoever.
Right, right... like the US just did?
How's that vote on healthcare coming along?
Look at Michael Flynn.
So, you chose an example from another country that also cannot win it's wars despite an overwhelming technological and logistical advantage over it's victims?
The Palestinians doesn't seem to have any problems trusting theirs. I wonder why?
That’s because history
History is not an excuse to assign white supremacism any kind of "superiority."
This seems like an emotional opinion.
Really? I find it funny that a person that claims to base their opinion on history doesn't seem to understand the intimate link between liberalism and fascism.
Iirc the way these bases work is with the agreement from the host
countrycountry's government and most definitely NOT the people of said country.
FTFY.
Does the rich deserve credit for failing upward?
If you think Palestine is going to survive for much longer,
The literal ex-commander of the Gaza division doesn't share your denialism. about Israel's chances.
Like I said... you give white supremacism a lot of credit.
So expect more of our BOOM BOOMs
You mean the ones that are already there?
Yes, and the last time they got REAL power it took millions of lives
Oh no... they were costing millions of lives looooong before Mussolini gave it a name. And western liberal society was perfectly fine with it both before and after as long as it remained in the colonized world.
It's almost as if liberalism simply accepts that a bit of fascism every now and then is simply the cost of doing business.

FBI Labels Anti-Fascists and Anti-Racists as Violent Extremists
A recently released document from the FBI indicates anti-fascists are as violent as those who would overthrow the U.S. government
A recently released Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) document titled “Domestic Terrorism Symbols Guide”* links common protest symbols to “terrorism” — another marker in a common theme of conflating militant protest for social justice with deadly terrorist violence within the United States. Groups like the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) and the Brennan Center have raised warnings about such documents, citing inadequate protections for people’s constitutional rights.
