my most enduring memory related to Rahm Emanuel is from 2013, when I was in Chicago as a delegate representing my local for a union convention we were at a social in the evening after session one night and boozing it up a bit, and this extremely old man, 80s probably, got drunk off his rear end and went outside and started shaking his fist at the police surveillance camera outside (those were already omnipresent in Chicago at the time), and screaming various detailed and specific threats of violence against Rahm Emanuel and daring the police to do something about it, until people finally came and dragged him back inside the one that has stuck in my mind ever since was 'we're gonna string Rahm Emanuel up on meat hooks!'

I would actually like to know how China thinks about climate change. is it like, yeah we’ve mastered the productive forces, we’ll fix it… or gently caress the us for ruining everything? something else? I assume it’s not the insane doomerism that infects the english world

crepeface posted:my impression is it's a lot of drama over something that will be ignored by the sitting government at best and at worst something that will be used by the most conciliatory faction of native peoples to discipline the radicals. kinda like the black caucus in USA maybe? I think you will find that the referendum is not failing because it is a badly communicated nothing measure but because of  Russian Disinformation and Vladimir Putinhttps://www.smh.com.au/national/anti-voice-rallies-organised-by-pro-putin-conspiracy-theorist-20230919-p5e5zc.html quote:During the pandemic, Boikov expanded his following through the sovereign citizen and anti-vax movements. He now regularly invites Indigenous sovereign groups to perform Welcome to Country ceremonies at his pro-Russia rallies, claiming that all Indigenous Australians support the invasion of Ukraine. This is my inner liberal talking but I do think it would be better if yes won since all the outright nazis are no voters (even though people who believe in a kinder gentler fascism vote yes) and I would expect a no vote to empower them more. It is for sure a nothing measure that won't directly help anyone no matter the outcome though

I think China will deal with sea level rise as an engineering problem. But I have never come across any mention of government advisory to build higher first floor or min height for coastal highways or anything. However, coastal China already gets way more seasonal typhoons than US coasts due to the monsoon so maybe their building and sewage are built to different standards. I also think China will get alot of sea level prevention engineering business overseas before they have to do it at scale at home. As for greening the desert that gets progressively warmer, China is doing it. In other words, yeah its engineering problem. China's oldest founding myth was based on flood control legends, not carrying the animals to far away land legends.

This is not a short article but I ask in good faith you give it a good, dedicated read. https://www.blackpeoplesunion.org/articles/conning-us-into-recognition I've been talking to Yes supporters intensely for weeks now whilst serving the people, last weekend especially because there was a Yes rally immediately before the street kitchen started, and everything we hear is emotional.

I made a post about that a few months ago in the Epstein thread. Despite there being evidence here and there, like the retracted CNN expose, it wasn't officially confirmed until a decade ago when documents related to the clean-up project were declassified. They stored VX and Sarin as 'deterrents' against North Korea or China using nerve agents. Though there's fairly credible evidence that they had used it during the Korean war, and the Vietnam war. They also stored the same nerve agents in West Germany until the collapse of the USSR. Operation Red Hat was the name of the Okinawa clean-up. Operation Steel Box, alternatively known as Operation Golden Python, was the German clean-up. The latter wasn't kept secret AFAIK, it was a major project involving secure movement over rail and sea to bring them to the Johnston Atoll where they were dumped along with all their other decommissioned nerve agents.

Looks like Joe making deals with Iran too https://twitter.com/YWNReporter/status/1703763187328246002?t=23fuGpwNB5eZRQiXU36IaQ&s=19 https://twitter.com/EFxScout1League/status/1703780747285242111?t=u9cNuDvgYBiswd96hzITdw&s=19 I wonder what the Persians throw in the pot besides the prisoners. I scanned a few articles, I don't see what else Iran agree to. Maybe Biden just want Iran ship more oil to lower the gas price. stephenthinkpad has issued a correction as of 12:18 on Sep 21, 2023 |

So the SK opposition leader who lost the presidential election to Yoon for like a hair is doing a fasting marathon, 2 weeks plus and counting, and then the opposition controlled parliament agreed to lift the immunity so Yoon can arrest him, on corruption charge I guess and also force feed him. South Korean lawmakers vote to lift hunger striking opposition leader’s immunity to arrest Everything about the SK politic is so K-drama. I am not sure how big of a deal it is, but I guess it warrant a post.

They also votes to oust the prime minister. But I don't think it will work. quote:Separately the opposition-controlled parliament voted 175-116, with four abstentions, in favor of Han's dismissal. The Democratic Party submitted the dismissal motion to the parliament Monday, hours after the prosecution sought an arrest warrant for Lee, accusing the prime minister of serious incompetence as chief of the Cabinet and holding him responsible for President Yoon Suk Yeol's policies.
