United States | News & Politics@lemmy.ml•Democrats’ failed shutdown tactic in fighting the Trump agenda - Liberation News

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Help me settle a dispute right now and he's saying that artificial sweeteners sort of maintain your sweet tooth is that true?
51·1 day agoYeah, there’s a lot going on there because, on one hand, we know there are bacteria which are going to find a way to make you crave sugar, but on the other hand, there’s a psychological entertainment factor from the sweetness, But then, again, the taste buds in your asshole can sense the sucralose in the same way that disgusting fast food keeps people addicted by hyper-simulating their gut to crave it. I’m bolderizing this here because I’m not a nutritionist, but you get what I’m saying. Also apologies for any dictation errors or background noise that gets turned into an Aaron Quirk.

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•When they tell you at work or at school to give it your all, do they mean to do something until you burn out or collapse of exhaustion? Because that seems to be the trope in all movies and shows.

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•How do you stop turning every hobby into a 'side hustle' and just enjoy learning for fun?
14·2 days agoAs a reply guy account that spends all its time trying to make pithy comments on World you are more Reddit than average 2025 Reddit users, who have a chance of wandering in normal-style due to the site’s notoriety. You speech patterns, (sadly) your thoughts, and your taste are all spiritually on the level of cutpaste webcomics
You need a complex system to do something simple. To simply press the gas pedal and fucking go you need an internal combustion engine that is nasty to look at, this confangled monstrosity, harder to manufacture than the batteries that will replace it. When you just drive your car you never have an inkling of the whole mechanism

18·2 days agoHm? No I just clarified that I wasn’t joking. Can you read? There’s no point in trying to explain to OP how to do something he fundamentally doesn’t want to do. It’s not a matter of knowing how. He actually expects praise for this.
I give the same kind of scolding when people post their moldy rice cookers. You’re an adult please act like it

United States | News & Politics@lemmy.ml•ngl these emails are kind of sketch but I choose to believe they are 100% real bc of shit like this
21·2 days agoIf it’s all shit that sort of alludes to connections without anything truly incriminating beyond the court of public opinion, how can we not call this a limited hangout? What else should we expect from the institutions involved?

United States | News & Politics@lemmy.ml•The Difference Between The US Empire And The British Empire
11·2 days agoThey’re definirely useful, don’t get me wrong. I subscribe to literally every one of them I see. They just become far more useful when we understand what makes them tick. The structure of the alt media as he explains it just perfectly encapsulates their shortcomings and “sudden betrayals” e.g. Ryan Grim who has been saying suspicious things for a while. Thanks for laying out your view of this I was wondering.
Let me give you a quick example, Seth Harp. He seems like he makes the US armed forces look bad with his reporting on Bragg, but he sensationalizes it and makes it about rowdiness rather than systemic problems. He kept insisting that “the Houthis” were engaging in global piracy and not a targeted blockade. Aaron Mate also refuses to accept LHO had a 201 file and was on a CIA assignment in Russia and was probably the JFK patsy. Like they always cleave back towards the intellectual apparatus since it’s their meal ticket and class interest. Seymour Hersh has tried to make the Nord Stream bombings out to be an independent rogue project of the Ukrainian and British security state - as if those operate independently from the CIA-run intl intelligence racket that grew from the OSS and its nazi connections. Back when he wrote about the Phoenix Program he tried to make My Lai seem like a one-off atrocity driven by soldiers’ bloodthirst, and not the standard procedure for medium long-range targets beyond the grasp of frogmen. Just obliterating everyone. We know that, so why is it hard for us to see how Hersh is subverting our understanding of it? I find his writing annoyingly persuasive. It’s because he has a lot of resources and time to put it all together. There is some use value embedded in these intellectual products, as Rockhill explains, it would be insane if there weren’t considering their wealth and education or at least connections. Klippenstein gets handed a monopoly on some pretrial documents leak and it makes him a star. These ops are very profitable it’s not a drag on CIA resources at all it’s probably one of their most effective ways to convert money into social capital, and it can even make money itself when they strike gold. Which they have unlimited time to do, just like the French theory philosophy bros
Sorry if this is a bit slapdash I’m trying to cover these points so I can go back to sleep. Will try to write a larger thing about this so don’t feel the need to pry apart every vague thing in here
The idea of any of you needing to spend the amount of time I did stumbling across this information just makes me ill. Take the rare pdfs oomphies pls

United States | News & Politics@lemmy.ml•The Difference Between The US Empire And The British Empire
11·2 days agoThat’s the thing we gravitate towards these guys bc they’re better than like 99% of what’s on the book or posting shelf. It’s not fucking Ezra Klein (or well Chris Hedges who’s openly anticom) right it identifies problems it has an ideology at least aware of the present issues. I’m sure it’s a case of being well-meaning and having connections. If you read Doug Valentine’s CIA as Organized Crime (Valentine’s a lib - also way too credulous of CIA officer letting him just browse files by leaving the room w em on the table - we must apply the book’s thesis to the book and Valentine itself lmao. the power dynamic of leaking info & controlling the truth) tho so read Western Marxism by Losurdo too and Rockhill’s book the ebook is online alrdy.) he outlines solid explanation for how this whole class of journalist operates I’m not just annoyed at a corny remark. Saying “this country/corp is doing DARVO” is kind of bread and butter for these writers. Daniel Ellsberg, Jeremy Scahill, Seymour Hersh, Glenn Greenwald, etc do a lot more damage. As a person annoyed by 1984 references finding out I can call them Ontologically Evil has been freeing

you don’t need to dl a vpn app, or even pay to use some vpns. Being german or american gets you treated the best by websites, except youtube which treats southeast asian countries better

Technology@lemmy.ml•Did you know there's a website built to Track AIPAC?
51·3 days agoYeah this is like the only thing people know about Israel. Americans are coping by telling themselves if they get rid of one bribery channel for Zionist donors to give treats to politicians that it will remove the utility an expanding nuclear settler state in the middle east (integrated with the US + UK etc intelligence apparatus since WWII) serves for a country that applies much of its remaining control through the petrodollar system and its military (which needs a completely unrestricted forward operating base). The cosmopolitan bourgeoisie is centered in the USA and that is why all its allies support Israel.
I’ve heard people claim Ukraine, Turkey, UAE, and Saudis all nefariously control the US govt. It’s laughable. These people are all lapdogs for now they only vaguely dream of acting on their brics associations. They keep their options open and China gains a bit of financial and trade leverage.

United States | News & Politics@lemmy.ml•Zohran Mamdani keeps pro-Israel NYPD chief in her post - TheGrayZone
55·3 days agoYour better option to voting for Zohran Mamdani is reading a book or preferably leaving your genocidal settler country where you whine about how hard it is to make enough money to enter the housing market subsidized by the global financial system that runs on debt and poverty. I already directly answered your question. The only possible “upsides” of Zohran are rent and wage stabilization, in a country that needs land reform, and a complete overhaul of its government especially justice system. Insane to talk like this while shoving kids into camps and poisoning Gaza’s water supply. You’re all shifty and incapable of speaking straight, just like the Israelis. It’s not just a settler state thing but it is particularly settlerful 🤠
As an aside did you go to McDonalds in the past 3 years?

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•What's a video game that you just don't get the hype about?
12·3 days agoShrek 3 on Wii. Finding Nemo on Playstation 2. Binding of Isaac flash. Tribes: Ascend. Starcraft 2. Hearts of Iron 4. Disco Elysium is a wonderful RPG suffering from the most annoying writing possible from Estonian liberal leftoids.
The only game that has ever lived up to the hype was wallace and gromit project zoo on ps2, super smash bros melee and kirby air ride. Also counter strike. Fortnite is very good but is somehow also overhyped. Legend of Grimrock 2 should have been hyped
Runescape and WoW are awful. People should be ashamed of themselves. Using an organization app is literally more fun and mentally active










Convinced neither of you read it. I don’t even like the PSL, but they do say the right things.
