Also, notice how a lot of the same people that think rape and genocide require "nuanced" conversations believe that you should throw the book at poor people stealing food to survive.

People are like "we can't have mob justice," and instead call a number that dispatches a paranoid domestic abuser with a badge and entitlement issues.

I try not to use "cowardice" much in military contexts for two reasons: - Vets with PTSD like me used to be shot at dawn for "cowardice." - war is actually very scary. But what else can you say? Joined the Army to shoot people in the back big fella? Why didn't you become a cop, that's their game.

Fighting an enemy that shoots back is too difficult for the US military to handle but it can sure execute unarmed Americans. What bravery.

Excellent piece by @ianagp.bsky.social on the virtue of isolationism from a NATO led war. Written in May of 2026, it may become a question Canadians face in the near future based on my reading of NATO's simultaneous sabre rattling and fear mongering. #cdnpoli #canada #europe #EU shorturl.at/TngG2

According to the Russian-language Wikipedia, it appears he was born in Paris.

Everyone on board was ready. The first fighter, flying 150 metres higher, launched its attack from a range of 300 metres. It opened fire whilst in a dive. Almost simultaneously, Ply returned fire. The upper machine gun also opened fire. The German fighter jerked to one side, went into a spin and began to plummet haphazardly. At that moment, the second fighter went on the attack. Plya did not give him a chance to take aim, and the first fighter opened fire. Without changing its dive angle, the fighter swept past the ‘Muromets’ and hurtled towards the ground. The third circled for a while, turned round and flew off. Upon the ‘Muromets’ return, the entire squadron congratulated the victors.

It happens with every kind of evil in existence. The rage of the oppressed is uncomfortable to witness, so people find a way to create a little fucking pocket of negative peace. Your "nuance" isn't justice, it's a cover for your discomfort with our voices crying out for justice. FUCK your peace.

Fun fact: in the winter of 1916-17, Frenchman Marcel Pliat became the first Black aviator to shoot down an aircraft in combat. He was flying as a tail gunner in an Imperial Russian Air Service Ilya Muromets heavy bomber when he shot down a German aircraft and damaged another.

A four engined Ilya Muromots biplane bomber with IRAS markings.

💯 It also a shifts our focus away from the true loci of political power— like the banking and finance sector, as just one example— in a way that serves these powers by obfuscating the centrality of their agency Vote shaming is political theater

I somewhat agree, but I also hate people saying "I didn't vote for this," when the outcome was incredibly foreseeable. You made your fucking choice on election day, and you have to own that choice, whether you like it or not.

This is an interesting question. Broadly there are three ways it could go: - Status quo. US hegemony disintegrates and is replaced by regional actors. - a Revenchist USA post Trump tries to reassert its old position. - USA leans into Donroe (🙄) doctrine and increases footprint heavily in Americas.

And the much maligned "uneducated voters" is a very deliberate choice by those in power. If we wanted a system in this country where our electorate was educated and informed on the issues, we could do that. We don't, and that's because it very much benefits certain parties.

It's also such a stupid choice because it never works. Nobody's been successfully shamed into voting. Vote shamers are emotionally crippled failures who unintentionally make their candidate look worse just by existing.
