Iranian president 'missing' after helicopter crash
  • Damn, this is bad news 😨

  • Russian support could give China's army "a decisive advantage in a potential conflict with the United States."
  • If you have a link to this study, could you share it?

    That sounds like an interesting read.

  • As is the reasoning of a Zionist, genocide is acceptable when the victims are others
  • Exactly this!! That's why we had zionists like Henry Kissinger doing so much heinous shit while the US oligarchs showered him with praise(as they have done before for the same nazis that shaped Henry's views and fears).

  • Georgian president vetoes 'foreign agents' bill, TASS reports

    TBILISI, May 18 (Reuters) - Georgian President Salome Zourabichvili has announced that she has vetoed a draft law on foreign agents, Russia's state-run TASS news agency reported on Saturday.

    Zourabichvili had said previously that she would veto the bill, which has sparked street protests, but her decision can be overridden by another vote in parliament, controlled by Georgia's ruling party and its allies.

    In grim milestone, U.S. overdose deaths top 100,000 for third straight year
    www.washingtonpost.com In grim milestone, U.S. overdose deaths top 100,000 for third straight year

    Provisional data from 2023 suggested a slight decrease from the year before, although final numbers are pending.

    In grim milestone, U.S. overdose deaths top 100,000 for third straight year

    >Overdose deaths have surpassed 100,000 for the third straight year, according to federal data released Wednesday, a reminder that the nation remains mired in an intractable epidemic fueled by the potent drug fentanyl.

    >According to provisional data released by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, an estimated 107,543 people died in 2023, a slight decrease from the previous year. The agency described it as the first annual decrease in deaths since 2018, although experts cautioned that the numbers could rise in ensuing years and that the toll remains unacceptably high.

    All of this happens while Amerikkka is bullying the global south with more wars. OH, and this is not all! Check the following cope:

    >The CDC on Wednesday described the decrease as a sign that federal efforts to help prevent deaths and treat addiction in states are paying off. It could boost President Biden as he seeks reelection and Republicans rip him over border security and the flow of fentanyl synthesized by Mexican criminal groups.

    Is this the new American dream?
  • There was a similar question being discussed here -> https://lemmygrad.ml/comment/4185356

    I will quote the comrade as a quick TLDR:

    100K debt to the american gov’t only matters if you ever plan to use credit in America. Paying off these people’s debt just allows them to return to America and use their education to buy a house in America, get a job in America, and support the American empire.

    Also it’s especially funny if the reason they can’t return is entirely because America decided to saddle the very people they need to function with undischargable debt they have no hope of paying back.

  • I don’t know if it is real, but it is funny
  • While you are in a foreign country, the collection agency can only sue you by going through a foreign court. Unless you owe an exceptionally large amount of debt(my guess is in the millions), it's unlikely that the collection agency will be willing to pay the costly fees associated with suing you out of the United States.

    It is just not worth it.

  • Is this the new American dream?
  • In all likelihood, the consequences of not paying your debt will only apply in the country where you incurred that debt. Realistically, INTERPOL's not coming after you because you didn't pay off your credit cards.

    You could "get away with it," in a sense. There are limits to what creditors will do to recover their money. They may file a lawsuit against you and try to get whatever they can out of your assets in the United States. But they're not going to chase you abroad. If they do try, that will mean to waste way too much money and that will defeat the purpose of being in that debt collection industry for a profit.

  • Is this the new American dream?
  • I have no idea. I tried googling this but didn't find any information.

    Edit. Oh my LOL

  • Thoughts on Mormonism, Jehovah's Witnesses, and Scientology?
  • Some churches even sponsor anti communist terrorists like the Doral Jesus Worship Center in Miami Dade.

    "At the time of his arrest, Alazo’s regular association with the Doral Jesus Worship Center in Miami Dade was known, in which people with recognized conduct in favor of aggression, hostility, violence and extremism against Cuba gathered", the Cuban Foreign Ministry added in its statement.

  • Thoughts on Mormonism, Jehovah's Witnesses, and Scientology?
  • Cults solve three issues for the bourgeoisie in the USA, SK, and Japan:

    • It perfectly internalize the revolutionary energy and/or channels it away into the cults organization.
    • It gives a sense of community in places that have been devastated by hyper individualistic ideologies.
    • It can deliver powerful anti communist propaganda and capitalist apologia disguised by the "word of god". (This is what I have seen in Latin american evangelicals that receive preachers from the USA). In other words, the "Prosperity theology"

    That's why cults prey on the needy and the helpless within the working class. It is an effective way to disorganize the working class with messages such as: "pray to god so you can have prosperity" or "Poverty is a curse of god and it means that you are lacking x y or z characteristics to be a perfect follower of the cult"

    1 in 3 Asian Americans reported being the subject of hate this past year, a new survey finds.
  • Whenever I see statistics like this, I remember the news about the elderly asian man being subject to unprovoked violence. All of that happened while friends of mine got the opportunity to work in the USA for a big salary.

    I always told my friends that they have to remember that getting a job in the USA doesn't mean that you will belong along with the white man. Having the wrong expectations always hurt people.

    I just found out I will be a parent... (one big emotional rant & vent)
  • There is a saying in Mexico: "Un bebe trae torta bajo el brazo". The translation of this is "A baby brings a sandwich under his arm".

    Basically, it means that babies bring fortune with their birth. In your case, I may not know how the baby will change your life but I am confident that it will certainly be positive. Life changing events can bring us closer to a strong version of ourselves.

    Congrats and face life with courage, comrade!

  • "We condemn terrorism unless is backed by us" - Amerikkka
  • Totally agree with you. I used the word "terrorist" in this meme to highlight the double standards that the US liberals have.

    For example, Alexander Alazo Baró was acquitted of the four charges against him, as a result of the attack perpetrated by him against the Cuban Embassy in the United States in the early hours of April 30, 2020. Despite the arrest of this scum, the United States only charged him with federal charges, but no Terrorism charge was made which is the classification that fits the fact. As you said, they weaponize this word to properly dehumanize and create a justification for violence against the people that the word terrorist is targeted upon.

    "After four years of the events and in a criminal proceeding full of opacity, the judge welcomed a joint report from the Prosecutor’s Office and the defense of the terrorist Alexander Alazo Baró, who presents the perpetrator as someone who, at the time of the events, was not in possession of his mental faculties and, therefore, declares him innocent", declared the MINREX.

    In the case of this criminal, the USA easily discarded the case as a lone wolf with mental issues which is a typical common thing to do when they have right wing extremists shootings. It is still crazy to me that the USA is showing us that the rules that they set don't apply to them.
