so if Bellingcat calls something cia spin, what does that actually mean

They didn't call it cia spin. They took part in the spin itself, which makes it obviously cia spin.

The spinning about the rocket was cia spin. Bellingcat did a thing on it.

My guess is they realised it was ineffective and a poor use of their time. Their Ukraine spin only works because libs side with Ukraine, the same spin just doesn't work with Israel's support worldwide being totally different.

That and also until this war with Israel libs thought Russia was behaving very badly and attacking civilians. It took Israel's genocide to make them realise what genocide actually looks like.

Is it though? The US had more restraint to avoid such mistakes when it was stronger. It strikes me as an insecure reaction which is very obvious weakness.

To reunification? Not without the US fucking off. There is desire for reunification among koreans but the US demands a seat at any table discussing reunification and prevents its occurrence.

The US will have to be forced to leave before it can happen. This could feasibly happen without full blown war if the US is stretched on many fronts to the point it has to choose whether it can defend its bases there or whether to abandon them, much like middle east and africa bases they've been pushed to leave.

Maybe there is hope that the strong and growing power of women's- movements can coincide with a recognition that socialism is how the patriarchy is defeated?

I think the repression is too strong. Even Chomsky's books get banned in South Korea, anything even close to soft-red is not tolerated and cracked down upon. Socialists hide their socialism and organise through the labour unions instead without ever mentioning the word.

It's good for your health as long as you ignore the fact the gulag system had a lower death rate from 1953 onwards than current 2020s US prisons have.

This is the dude that gave us the information on Afghanistan being used to target Xinjiang with terror attacks.

I like his point on reinforcing failure, I said something similar a few days ago. As things get bad instead of accepting losses and regrouping the empire doubles down on loss and loses even more. The empire is unwilling to give anything up but it MUST in order to regroup at a lesser level to stop the decline, instead however it keeps doubling down and losing even more.

Either a reunification in favour of DPRK as it's the non-occupied Korea or a return to war when the timing is correct. I see no alternatives.

ITV (UK's channel 3) have named their new cop show "Piglets". The liberals and far right are pisssssssssssssssssssed about this.

Supremacist brain I reckon. Lots of crossover there though.

In his defence he doesn't know what he said 3 seconds ago so he won't remember he said that 4 years ago.

I hate her only slightly less than I hate vaush

 

No flaws. 9/10

Maybe a little too subtle on the lgbt themes but I also kinda enjoy it in a "I can understand what that means!" kind of way that makes you feel clever. Could have developed more characters with 2 cours instead of 1.

Should be compared to A Place Further than the Universe. I'd say Jellee's characters are slightly more mature and feel more real though.

Loved it.

 

Show is Yoru no Kurage wa Oyogenai - Jellyfish can't swim in the night

Probably spoilers. Last warning.

spoilerHere: https://yorukura.fandom.com/wiki/Kiui_Watase

I did this based on this scene from episode 11: https://streamable.com/oq226r

Comrade Kiui is FtM.

Not only that but his name "Watase" splits into "Wata" which means "crossing" or "ferry," often used in Japanese names to imply traversing a river or similar feature, hinting at transitions or change. While "se" meaning "rapids" or "change" is also another blatantly huge clue.

I haven't worked out what Kiui might reference, it's written in Katakana and some think it's the Kiwi bird. I don't know if this is related or not, someone else might.

QED

EDIT: Edit war has begun.

 

I haven't kept up with which ones turned to fuckery and which ones did not.

In the past few days I've had several replies that have not pinged a "unread" notification and do not show up in the unread page.

They do show up in all on the inbox, but I never use that.

Is anyone else experiencing this issue? Is it a known issue to devs?

 

Alright so my friend's place burned to the ground, literally. The fire started in the flat above and spread. Everything is gone. I care about this person a lot and it's incredibly lucky that nobody was killed.

Please support in any way you can. They're very good people, I obviously wouldn't ask otherwise. This person has been involved in projects I've been involved with for almost a decade now.

I can probably get alternative options if desired.

EDIT: I should add that they're not expecting to get a new place for "up to 19months" according to insurance. Literally anything big or small is incredibly useful, this is an entire family.

$600 is more than I expected from here, genuinely really appreciated. It will absolutely help and be put to good use.
