So Japanese conservatives must then be out there protesting the US imperialist military occupation of Ryukyu, right? π

I wrote about how the US and Israel carried out an attack on an Iranian girls school on par with the OKC bombing and US media relegated it to a back page story. No stand alone evening news segments, no front page stories, it made A11 in the NYT then everyone moved on.

Josh, as a friend, you're capable of a much better analysis.
Yes, Harris/Waltz were *less likely* to strike Iran directly, but no guarantee.
Guaranteed: Harris arming Israel.
Near-guaranteed: Israel striking Iran in 2025 & whenever else w/o consequence from US.
Voter-blaming is unhelpful.
it's genuinely insulting how stupid they think we all are. it just happens that there's some kind of international incident with perfectly innocent floridians in Cuban waters just as the US is manufacturing consent for war? fuck off, you fucking morons
Headlines: New York Times - "Cuban Border Guard Kills 4 on US-Registered Boat" Washington Post - "Cuban forces shoot 4 dead on U.S. speedboat" Axios - "Flordia Republican calls for probe after Cuba kills 4 on U.S. boat" NBC - "Cuba says four killed after U.S. boat violates territorial waters" BBC - "Cuba says four shot dead on US-registered speedboat" USA Today - "Cuba says 4 killed after speedboat from Florida opened fire in Cuban waters"
You can tell from only 1 of 6 headlines in this photo that the confrontation started with the Florida speedboat firing on the Cuban Border Guard, prompting retaliatory fire.
Manufacturing Consent 101βextra dangerous in the age of attention spans attuned to reading headlines only.
Friend told me once that she was taken to "Fire Walk With Me" on a first date.
4 panel silly comic in black lines only. A blob guy has a big pencil. It says βI drawβ. In the second panel he seems happy with his drawing and it says βall done yeahβ. Panel 3 shows him holding up the drawing of a triangle with legs and a happy face. He goes βcome onβ. In the final panel heβs very pleased with himself, closes his eyes and tells himself βIβm a bit incredibleβ
Come on
βThere were three in thereβ For a second I thought this was going to be a horror story about black widows.
