- When westerners talk about "progressives" in this region, one must approach with a high degree of skepticism. They usually just mean western friendly tech-libertarians and rich kids who know how to work social media.

- Reposted by svlYou’re not crazy. The anti-trans movement is not organic; it was funded by pedophilic billionaires like Jeffrey Epstein who backed a network of conservatives to accuse the same people they were sexually abusing of being the real danger. @madycast.com exposes the truth in our in-depth report.

- Reposted by svlThe US embargo on Cuba goes back 66 years. According to a state dept memo at the time, the people of Cuba supported Castro, who had removed the US backed dictatorship. Thus it was decided to "deny money and supplies to Cuba" to "bring about hunger, desperation, and the overthrow of government"

Not hearing much from Americans, the great defenders of democracy in the world supposedly--who greenlit the massacre of those very same workers in Gwangju, who have never been forgiven for it.

- on occasion amidst Trump's rambling, he'll say things hitherto avoided: here, in talking about "discombobulation", he remarks on how AQ in Iraq, which became IS, came out of Paul Bremer's de-Baathification. I guess some things from his briefings stick, like bits of aspic in his Jello brain.
