If you support Ukrainian sovereignty Iβd also argue you cannot be pro-NATO. NATOβs one of the reasons Ukraine is being torn apart rn
Mearsheimerβs a great academic, although his theoretical alignment is that of realism, he sees the reality of the faux βorderβ and βinternational lawβ as it is enforced sporadically in favor of Western and white majority nations.
Prof. #JohnMearsheimer: Between 1971 and 2021, the US murdered 38 million people.
Rue as a kitten, circa 2012
Rue now, sheβs 14 years old!
My baby turns 14 today, since 2012, sheβs been by my side, a source of comfort after a long day, entertainment whenever she zooms around the house. Sheβs a little more low energy now, but I still see her as that cute, flea ridden kitten that showed up in my house one day.

A Statement from the Organizing Committee Defend Anti-War Organizing in NYC-DSA Against Wrecking on the Eve of Global War
We are frustrated and disappointed with NYC-DSA Steering Committee's decision to seize control of the Anti-War Working Group's Organizing Committee (AWWG OC) elections from the working group itself and announce chapterwide elections instead. We are also deeply disappointed by the Steering Committee's cynical invocation of the US-Israel war on Iran as a justification for actively disorganizing the work that existing AWWG leaders and bodies are doing to end the war. This is a coup attempt. Steering is attempting to replace existing leaders, who have sustained organizing in the working group over the past year, with candidates more politically sympathetic to them. But their factions have had virtually no involvement with AWWG and wouldn't be able to win in an election among working group members, so Steering has no choice but to disregard AWWG bylaws and democratic precedent so they can ignore the will of working group membership.
On top of being profoundly disorganizing to the essential anti-imperialist work that AWWG leaders and members are carrying out, this decision is disrespectful to the democratic institutions of the chapter and runs counter to how we should be conducting ourselves as comrades and wielding power as socialists. Steering is abusing their power and weaponizing procedure to disempower organizers with whom they disagree politically. If allowed to stand uncontested, this decision has grave implications not only for anti-war and anti-imperialist organizing within NYC-DSA, but for the very possibility of carrying out democratic, member-led work in DSA. We urge NYC-DSA Steering Committee to reverse their decision and allow the Anti-War Working Group to carry out its own elections, in accordance with AWWG bylaws.

The Western media is bending over BACKWARDS as a propaganda machine for this war.
Iβm scared of rich white people.
You should be too.
Reminder that the US military budget is larger than the military spending of the next nine largest countries combined.
Over half goes to private defense contractors.
This is the military-industrial complex Eisenhower warned of β on steroids.

Democrats always say their hands are tied, but they only seem powerless when it comes to helping workers. When itβs war budgets, surveillance, or corporate subsidies, bipartisan majorities appear overnight. The problem isnβt just Republicans. Itβs a political system that serves the same donors.
Kurds officially came out and said this is false too, no confirmed report, just White House talking out of its ass. Afaik Kurds are neutral
A couple thingsβ¦
The βconflictβ in Iran *IS* a war.
It is a war of choice.
It is warfare without conscious.
It was unprovoked.
And Iβm sick and tired of people suggesting & implying the only tragedies herein are that US Service Members have died. The people of Iran are innocents in this conflict!

Yesterday I read an interview with the singer in a punk band who uses GenAI to help with writing his texts.
Punk. The whole point of punk was that if you know how to play 3 cords badly and have something to say just fucking go for it.

European Union at the same time lectures the world that national sovereignty is sacred and inviolable when it comes to Ukraine and that it doesn't matter when it comes to Iraq, Iran, Lebanon, Palestine, Syria, Venezuela and Western Sahara.
You don't have to like Khamenei to recognize how evil it is that we launched a war and killed dozens of children to kill a guy who was almost 90.
Even if you buy that removing him from power is a paramount interest...time was going to do that anyway.

Malcolm X was right.
Israel/US killed 167 schoolgirls in Iran in an Illegal unprovoked attack.
And never mind being condemned, the Media won't even mention it.

Aaannndd this is why international law is bs, it only protects the West and its capital from any pushback from other states. This isnβt to say Iranβs government isnβt abhorrent, but you cannot argue international law applies equally to all states.
Banana Republic type shit
