Read novelist Lana Bastašić’s blazing response to yet another act of literary censorship.

  • Why is it bad that it's been abandoned? It works fine for me. Are there security concerns or something?

  • Or better yet - this helped me more because I couldn't get what you were saying until I saw it - is that you can think of either one of two faces that the cube can sit on. Before I explain which faces I am talking of, I have to note that a cube face can be described by its diagonal, which is what I have to do to explain this in words and the second one is that in a drawing of a cube there are six peripheral intersection points(three to the right and three to the left) and two inside points a right one and a left one. So these two faces the cube can sit on are:

    The first is the face whose diagonal starts from the bottom left peripheral point and reaches the right inside point

    Then the second face is the one that spans from the left bottom peripheral point until the right middle peripheral point.

    This helps me change perspective instantly.

  • I think you'd be surprised how many people are pro-Palestinian liberation struggle. And for a good reason. Sometimes the liberation fight may result in war crimes which we are all against, but that doesn't discredit the liberation struggle itself. If anything, maybe the colonisers should stop oppressing and mass murdering the people if they don't want them to react so violently.

  • I think you should pay less attention to mainstream media which propped that issue up disproportionately. It wasn't as big of a deal as many made it out to be.

    But regardless of that, I don't think one should be concerned about opinions of people and I certainly don't think it is an issue at all if young people hate the US. It has done some of the most fucked up things in the world since the start of the last century to say the least. This may be expressed in stupid ways like sympathising for Bin Laden, but the broader sentiment of hate towards the US isn't wrong.

  • How does the US not have any strategic interest in propping up Israel? This is insane. Israel is the biggest strategic ally of the US in the middle east, do you not know anything about the issue? They protect and fund Israel more than anyone in the world.

  • "promising to give two different groups"? You mean the natives and the colonisers? Tf is this "meme"?
