This is the other problem with Americans. You think the next step after words is going in guns blazing. Your media is full of it, so it's no wonder you're brainwashed into believing it. It's why there are so many mass shootings. Someone disagrees with someone else and reaches for his gun.

That's not the next step. The next steps are to organize, protest, disrupt, disobey, obstruct. You can do all that from your own city.

Zelenskyy emphasized that any security assurances would need to be legally binding and supported by the U.S. Congress

The US can not be trusted to uphold anything they sign. It doesn't matter if Congress signs or not. We have countless examples of them backing down and letting Trump do whatever he wants.

The US is not an ally. They will not help you. Don't give up a shot at NATO for hollow promises.

If there's one thing I know about the Brits it's that when they say "nonsense" they mean "complete and total bullshit"

Please read the article. The government and Pentagon themselves are saying they will lose.

Why are Israeli lawmakers wearing gold nooses?

To symbolize that they need to be hanged for crimes against humanity?

This is why governments are pushing age verification to track you while pretending it's to protect the children.

according to Israeli security officials

So it's complete bullshit to further the genocide of Palestinians.

We wouldn't want to upset the Fascist dictator of the US. I guess we'll have to stay complicit with massacring innocent children.

Can we stop pretending this is actually a ceasefire and call it genocide like it is? Every news article says "ceasefire" but the firing hasn't ceased.

There’s been a lot of talk about how the UK’s richest people are threatening to turn tail and leave the country (usually due to the suggestion that they pay a bit more tax on their vast swathes of wealth). But while these multi-millionaires can talk the talk, it turns out they’re not the ones actually walking the walk.

In reality, it’s the nation’s young people who are “quiet quitting” the UK in droves

Literally "it's not the rich people's fault. It's Gen Z!" More propaganda from the rich to blame anyone but them for the problems of the world.

No. They might get shot by occupation forces instead.
