  • They red states will suffer the world the unleashed on us all. The cut the offense to plan and forecast these storms while also cutting the defensive arms to provide life-saving help to those in need. This will only get worse and more frequent until an equilibrium of bodies to dollars is reached.

  • They can make him a martyr if they want to. Still have to prove it was him!

  • Then do surprise-Pikachu-face.jpg when the same is done against them.

  • Umm, it's not a moral failing to highlight historical facts. A historian of WWII Nazism is not, in fact, a Nazi. There is real historical precedence for the idea that radical ideas for social change has been met with smears and, if unsuccessful, real violence against the leader(s) of that social change.

    Whether his ideas are successful, or not, the powers that run the world will stop at nothing to prevent their loss of power. I fail to see how pointing out that fact, and hoping this time is different while acknowledging that history, is somehow some moral failing of the OP of this comment chain.

  • To fuck with their metrics and tracking attempts for legit female menstrual cycles.

  • I'm so tired of people not telling this old bunch of shit sacks to fuck off. I'd have so much respect for any threatened tRump victim if they just told him the fuck off after shits like that.

  • I would write this dude in for every election until I die if he responds, 'STFU!'

  • Not that I've seen and they were the instigators of such proposal for at least one, of memory serves.

  • I did this with period trackers. I'm male and my wife and I would always chuckle when my period was about to start.

  • I hope not. Please do it. tRump and his shit-sucking base only give a shit when the leopard is dousing them and theirs in hot sauce. If crashing and burning this fucker and our country is what it takes to end him and them, don't wait! Do it slowly, like someone shredding important documents.

    Bonus points if they or anyone does it each time this regime tries to lie or bury that pressure point. Rich people back this fuck-squad because they care about two things: their money and their lives. Threaten one and/or the other until they abandon him!

  • I'll bring the hobbies that eventually breakdown and I lose interest in fixing!

  • Everything you said, literally everything is me to the letter. I know my past comments and posts, ADHD neurodivergent brain sees what it seems others do not. I have thought of ways out of this mess and it ends with my death, either at the hands of this government or self-infliction. I know how to use a gun, but I also don't plan to be someone eaten by zombies. I'd be the one found in bed with my family, all appearing to have succumbed to self-unaliving.

    I'd love to find somewhere to live that isn't the US, but I have but one skill and ADHD is not on the desired applicants field for most emigration forms.

  • May just be the only thing that saves this country. Fewer people on social media is good for society at this point.

  • I think there were intelligence officials that echoed this same sentiment years ago.

  • The future is NOW...NOw...Now...now...now...now...

  • Don't get me wrong, like the US, I don't want to lump the civilian populations trying to survive with the govt. I think the article is trying to highlight, and to my point, that without stability from their leaders, they are seeing the humanity return in the vacuum of a stable and supportive govt. I agree that media here and abroad like to show their bias and seem to have a objective. It just feels like a lot of the internet and social media is aimed at division and dehumanization. In the absence of this global networked interconnectedness, the Iranian people are finding a joint purpose and reconnecting with their neighbors. They are doing what humans are known for doing across time, freely opening their homes and showing the kindness and unification needed when faced with an existential threat.

    I don't think we'd see something like that here while the internet and rage propaganda still runs!

  • They're definitely asses, you got that right!

  • Stuff lasting that long? Capitalism will never allow it!

  • The war has “softened the divisions we had, both among each other and with the general public,” Mr. Abtahi said.

    Israel’s attacks have set off a resurgence of nationalism among many Iranians, inside and outside the country, including many critical of the government. That sense of common cause has emerged in a torrent of social media posts and statements by prominent human rights and political activists, physicians, national athletes, artists and celebrities. “Like family, we may not always agree but Iran’s soil is our red line,” wrote Saeid Ezzatollahi, a player with Iran’s national soccer squad, Team Melli, on social media.

    Hotels, guesthouses and wedding halls have opened their doors free of charge to shelter displaced people fleeing Tehran, according to Iranian news media and videos on social media. Psychologists are offering free virtual therapy sessions in posts on their social media pages. Supermarkets are giving discounts, and at bakeries, customers are limiting their own purchases of fresh bread to one loaf so that everyone standing in line can have bread, according to videos shared on social media. Volunteers are offering services, like running errands to checking on disabled and older residents.

    “We are seeing a beautiful unity among our people,” said Reza, 42, a businessman, in a telephone interview near the Caspian Sea, where he is taking shelter with his family. Using only one name to avoid scrutiny by the government, he added: “It’s hard to explain the mood. We are scared, but we are also giving each other solidarity, love and kindness. We are in it together. This is an attack on our country, on Iran.”

    Narges Mohammadi, a Nobel Peace Prize winner and the country’s most prominent human rights activist, has spent decades in and out jail, pushing for democratic change in Iran. But even she warned against the attacks on her country, telling the BBC this past week that “Democracy cannot come through violence and war.”

    Turning off the internet seems to be what is required to bring back human empathy, as evident. Without widespread disinformation and propaganda, the people of Iran are unifying around a common cause, helping each other. Meanwhile, every counterattack on Israel seems to be further erroding Netenyahu's favorability. Israel's government may have overplayed their hand by bringing death and destruction to the civilian population that otherwise didn't seem to feel the full weight of the government's genocide in Gaza.

    Why they would choose now to punch an enemy with the means to punch back, is baffling!
