Like let's put aside socialism, morals, basic humanity. Why the fuck does the west support Israel to the degree it does? Like it only alienates basically every other potential partner in the ME. It can't effectively serve as a barracks state because who would we need that army to fight that wouldn't only make things worse? Their economy is basically propped up by the USA. Yes they serve as a platform for weapons and systems testing, but they don't need a complete blank cheque too it. Like I don't get this logic. Cut em a check and pull bibi's leash and wash your hands of it. Like the logic of "Unconditional 110% support" is just fuckin nuts. Yeah sure a good bit of it us ideology, but there has to be some matrierial calculus in there somewhere. They are basically sacrificing the baby Ukraine over this.

    i really wish this guy had something better to say than "none of your business" when asked about why he visited epstein's child fuck island long after it was well known to be child fuck island to the rich and powerful; it made him lose so much credibility and i suspect that he doesn't care.

      so, there's nothing indicating that he visited the island. but even if he just had a couple dinners with epstein and hardly spoke to him and somehow genuinely had no idea who he was (which wasn't the case, but if), it's still an indictment of a supposedly radical thinker to be so deeply entrenched in the ruling class that he just can't avoid rubbing shoulders with the billionaire pedophile pimp.
