Did they fire the dumbass who saw HBO’s brand marketing value and decided “yeah let’s just throw that in the trash”?

I’m gonna be honest, I never understood where the Zionist propaganda was supposed to be located in Part 2

The Seraphites are supposed to be Palestinians? Well that wasn’t remotely obvious, they’re clearly coded as some kind of amish-like post-apocalyptic cult and the Wolves are clearly presented as the principal aggressors, picking a fight with an island people that suffered just as much under FEDRA as they did

And the Seraphaites come out in the end winning a shocking and theatrical victory against the Wolves

So is the propaganda in the revenge story? If that’s true, Elies narrative is too personalized for some geopolitical narrative building

Without genuine oversight alot of that money will not go to civil servants or civil infrastructure, it’ll be pocketed as Turkish capital deforms both the real and informal Syrian economies

100 million is nowhere near enough to subdue a country the size of Syria, folks have to remember ISIS wasn’t a hundred millionaire operation, it required billions of dollars to govern one metro-city and several small cities for a couple of years

The Saudis and Gulf tyrants over the last twenty years have pumped tens of billions (alongside US intelligence support) to create these Jihadist groups and these orgs are high maintenance money grubbers

True but that’s more of a one-time payment thing to facilitate the big privatization cash grabs, after it’s done they won’t fund Syria like Ukraine has been funded for three years, Syria will be lucky if it gets even a year worth of funding

After the initial down payment, the Peninsulares will downgrade funding to only their most loyal factions and brigades while dumping the expensive hangers-on

This will have the effect of accelerating the creation of city-state cartels and factional splinter groups

“Garcia who??? I have to arm Israel sweety”

Guarantees a mass fracturing of the jihadist factions and the creation of new ones as the economy deforms into a free-for-all circus, reactionary cartels forming city-state like blocs while more populist rural uprisings bloom as Syrian agriculture is twisted and deflated NAFTA style by Turkish agribusinesses

A bad quarter in Turkey is all it takes for this bullshit to collapse, unless the Saudis and Gulf freaks want to front cash for the entire Syrian economy a la Ukraine-style

Her and Sanders didn’t even have the courage or wherewithal to head down to El Salvador to back up Garcia, had to leave it to some no-name centrist Senator

Fair weather ass pretenders

The Iraq War and the 2008–2009 Gaza bombings triggered in me a deep personal epiphany that led me to believe for the last 15 years that genocide (somewhere in the MENA region) was absolutely a likely possibility, even as I transitioned from a liberal to a commie that political epiphany never changed

I never articulated this belief out loud because for the longest time I wondered whether I was being a paranoid morbid cynic, turns out I wasn’t, some vindication huh

The scale and viciousness of the brutality did catch me off guard, but even then I can’t really say any of this has genuinely surprised me, in retrospect I now realize I had spent a decade and a half semi-consciously bracing for this reality and tracing back in many ways is the reason I became a communist in the first place

Dental industry about to boom in a couple years and another childcare cost added to the pile

I’d assume Ukraine despite being outmatched by Russia would inflict horrific casualties on the untested and smaller Hungarian military

In fact if the Ukrainians went wild, I could see them easily pulling a 2014 ISIS-style offensive on Poland and Central Europe and making it all the way to the outskirts of Warsaw and Budapest, a military capable of continuously holding a 1200km attritional front with the likes of Russia poses a grave danger to the poorly performing militaries of liberal Europe

I’ve said this before but Europe is creating a monster in Ukraine, one that is rapidly heading towards “nothing to lose” territory

Yeah, too many on Hexbear got that “Too cool for school” ass energy that needs to be dispensed with asap

You can say he’s “Glowing up” to

Thanks for the info, I’ll definitely do that for my main account

Thanks for the heads up, it was a burner account anyway that’s been linked to a dozen times already, but it’s good I can now disable the tracker

Appreciate it

Foolishness, the Turks are just gonna escalate now without opposition

Anti Kurd bashing is a major plank of right-wing Turkish parties, they’re not gonna give that up just because the PKK disarms “The terrorists are still armed in Iraq” is what’s coming next

What a shitshow

The curse of post WW2 Arab Armies strikes again

A regimental and National Guard system paired with a rotating officer corps prevents this shit from happening, but the totalizing and paranoid mindset of most of these former US puppet kings kills even the concept of reform

They’re in hysterics because Hasan is winning, against Ethan, Destiny, and fash sloptube in general, he’s becoming increasingly more popular and mainstream

Hasan is poised to become a major figure of global leftwing media
