Marion, you knew when you met me that I came from the mind of George Lucas. It’s not my fault I’m a little fucked up!

Marion, this is a movie made in the 1980s and set in the 1930s, what the hell are you even talking about?

I’m wondering if the leftists will actually believe this. They seem to latch onto every other meme that presents geopolitics as some overly simplistic pattern.

I think some on the right believes a major world war happens every 70 years (or something like that) and the pattern totally explains wars for centuries! Well as long you forget WWI and the Napoleonic wars happened…

Also I don’t think “intervention” means what you think it means.

Nah just the crowd that doesn’t read the news from the “lamestream media” and prefer getting the news from >30 second shock clips with zero context.

Nobody in the woke left is thinking that “the Jews are doing a genocide against Muslims”.

Three comments above yours:

which means it’s implicitly endorsing Israel’s genocide of Muslims.

I think that proves my point about people not reading anything and just reacting to things without considering context at all.

Why isn’t this in shitpost community?

It ain’t WWIII, authoritarian regimes have a limited shelf life and Iran and Russia are past their expiration dates.

The markets are disconnected from reality. There’s a crazy amount of wealth at the top and they gotta put it somewhere. So it’s basically just a gambling site were rich people bet on what’ll happen next in a soap opera. Some of the rich people get to see the script before everyone else does. It’s now relatively stable because they’ve convinced themselves that TACO futures are safe.

The economic conditions are basically the same as in the late 1920s and Trump’s tariff policies are the same thing they were doing back then. But don’t worry about what happened 1929… TACO TACO TACO BUY BUY BUY!

So leftism is about wanting more comfortable public benches for the homeless to sleep on, while liberalism is about not wanting people to be homeless at all?

Do you ever get tired of needing to be outraged by everything all of the time and just want to be in a society where people actually work to improve things rather than just expressing impotent outrage? Ah but that would require doing work and leftists don’t want to do any work or they might be screamed at by other leftists for being “liberal.”

Lockheed Martin did October 7?

Basically 9/11 truther style conspiracy nonsense going on here.

Gotta keep the Middle East under control so gas prices don’t get too high. Americans vote for low gas prices and then pretend to be upset about what needs to be done to keep them low. But y’all will keep voting for low gas prices, so it’s all hypocrisy.

Yeah and the little green men that showed up in Crimea in 2014 definitely had nothing to do with Russia! That’s what Russia said and we all believed them, right?

Are you pretending Hezbollah, Hamas, and the Houthis are not Iranian proxies or are you actually that uninformed about these things? Iran regularly calls them their “Axis of Resistance” if you didn’t know. Iran’s proxies have been definitely attacking Israel for a long time.

How long can Iran have to send endless waves of Arabs to die as canon fodder before someone puts a stop to it? All of the Arab countries are too authoritarian and corrupt to do anything about Iran, so here we are.

Yeah it’s a clickbait site for people who think they’re too smart to fall for clickbait.

Is there an actual article about this or only a summary? Like what’s considered a verbal attack? A breakdown between physical attacks seems like important information. Did they only start gathering this information in 2023 or is there more historical data to compare it to for context?

You don’t understand geopolitics in general if you’re seeing everything from the ultra-atheist anti-religion perspective.

Interests are more significant than religious bullshit. In a theocracy religion is a tool the government uses to propagandize the public. Clearly Iran sees Israel and the US as enemy and they’ll use anyone will to weaken their enemies. Yup, they will even direct propaganda at you regardless of your beliefs if it serves their interests.

We can do a venn diagram of people that think Jews are committing genocide and against which group. White supremacists believe Jews are doing a genocide against white people, The tiktok crowd thinks Jews are doing a genocide against muslims.

Both of these groups hate one another despite the fact they’re saying basically the same things. Hopefully it stays that way, some really bad things happen when the Nationalists and Socialists realize they have common ground in their hatred of Jews.

They actually are.

Non-violent resistances have historically had double the effectiveness of violent resistance movements. Violent resistances generally just get a bunch of people killed and only makes things worse.

The reason is simple. It’s a numbers game. Only a few psychopaths want violence and those few are easily dealt with by police. Sometimes they can especially troublesome and need to be dealt with by the military (LA isn’t one of those cases, Trump is just an idiot). It’s only the very rare case that a violent resistance topples a government and in those cases it’s just replacing one group of authoritarian psychos replacing another group. The French revolution ended up with a King being replaced by an Emperor after a whole lot of people died.

Meanwhile a non-violent movement can attract more numbers. You only need single digit percentages of the population to participate in things like general strikes to make an authoritarian regime collapse. But you aren’t getting those numbers with a violent resistance, people have families to think about and violent resistances are easily vilified. An authoritarian regime can exercise violence against a violent resistance and kill it. If an authoritarian regime uses violence against a non-violent resistance it’s clear to everyone who the villains are and an every broader number of people will participate and subtle and secretive ways.

History bears this out, a violent resistances don’t work unless there’s foreign backing and even then it’s unlikely to succeed. Non-violent resistances have double the probability of success. Non-violent resistances are just about psychopaths that want to burn things down coming up with bullshit rationalizations for it.

These aren’t solvable problems, they will always exist. But while they can’t be solved they can be mitigated. Saying murders happen therefore the concept of having police is wrong is ignoring the fact that there can be more or less murders. Less murders is good even if not perfect.

The government of Iran supports terrorism across the Middle East, including the Triple-H of terrorism which they term the “Axis of Resistance”. Hezbolla, Houthis, and of course Hamas, which brutally massacred over a thousand people and took hundreds hostage forcing a ground war in a densely populated area so they could make genocide propaganda. Hezbollah was plotting to do something similar and the Hotuthis would if they had the capability. Also Iran has people regularly chanting “death to Israel, death to America” and that kind of rhetoric is spreading into the west, and we’ve already seen all of this result in violence in cities like Boulder, CO. So that regime starts enriching enriching uranium in the amounts needed to build a nuclear device, according to the UN. And they publicly announce they’re going to start testing missiles capable of delivering a nuclear warhead to Israel.

But sure, that’s not antagonizing at all!

It’s the internet posts that’s REALLY antagonizing!

It’s a theocracy that ritualistically chants “death to America, death to Israel.”

Nuclear proliferation is never a good thing. But a regime like that getting nukes is a major crisis.

Yeah why would someone ask a question when the answer is so obvious?
