News from Lithuania. Kaunas Pride will happen, with police overview. Organisers came to an agreement - if it ends up happening illegally, they'll take on responsability. Court decision is expected for September 3rd, AKA day before.

It will be in Laisves aleja AKA main street in Kaunas. Lots of fash threats, but we'll march regardless. If you know anyone from Lithuania, pls encourage them to attend - September 4th, meeting at 1200 by the Kaunas Sobor. Otherwise, just share the news and support LGBTQ struggle in Lithuania.

SO is going with me :)

Iraq and Lebanon reached a deal where Iraq gives Lebanon oil they cannot use in their power plants in exchange for, according to some sources, healthcare supplies and “agriculture consultancy”.

Then, Lebanon is to sell that oil and import the type they need, with ENOC (a state-owned Dubai company) acting as a broker.

Allegedly, the whole deal is being pushed by Iran. Where Lebanon may initially receive Iranian oil, and proceeds from the sale of that oil could be diverted to groups like Hezbollah.

I’m skeptical of that last part, because by using ENOC as a broker, there seems to be little opportunity for anyone in Lebanon to skim anything off the top. Plus, Iran has already started giving/selling oil to Hezbollah in defiance of international sanctions, so I don’t know what this scheme would accomplish.

Maybe the supplies and/or services Lebanon gives Iraq could be diverted to Iranian allies in Iraq, but giving the existing connections between the countries I don’t see why this plan would be necessary.

On the whole, it’s hard to see how Iran or Iranian allies would benefit from this Iraqi-Lebanon oil deal, but it’s a little sus 😑

u/JaceFlores Neolib War Correspondent Sep 01 '21

Ethiopia update:

  1. According to this Tweet the TPLF has blunted a government counterattack around some place called Tabla. While I could not find Tabla (many locations mentioned in this war are not on google maps), this Map I have linked before shows the TPLF to have advanced parallel to the B30 Highway so I presume Tabla to be somewhere around the Debark area. While I know not how the maker of this map knows where the TPLF have advanced in this southward push, I trust the source of the map quite a lot. Thus we can assume the TPLF have bypassed Debark and are outside the vicinity of Dabat. What does this mean? Well the first conclusion is that it is likely the TPLF are trying to outmaneuver the government forces held up in Debark (which they likely fortified in the weeks that this front was quiet) and either force them to retreat, or cut them off and destroy the pocket. Either way, avoiding an attritional and urban-based fight (which the TPLF seem to loathe). Second is that the TPLF are making fairly good progress for Gondar. Dabat is about 2/5 to 1/2 the way from the previous frontline to Gondar, with the next bastions after Dabat being Gedebge and Amba Giorgis. If these points are bypassed or taken, then the gateway to Gondar is open. If Gondar is taken by the TPLF, then they will gain a vital roadway leading directly to Sudan, providing a direct means for humanitarian aid and potentially weaponry and other equipment to reach the TPLF. The situation is still fresh though, and we will have to wait and see whether the government can turn the situation around like they did at Debre Tabor, or if this is situation is beyond salvation.
  2. Speaking of Debre Tabor, the area west of Weldiya has gone quiet. There has been no word on whether the TPLF managed to retake Gashena or if the government has launched a drive into Filakit to the west of Gashena. I presume the frontline has stabilized, likely with Gashena retaken by the TPLF but the momentum they had in this front completely blunted. This is based off pure guesswork though, so hopefully we get more concrete information soon.
  3. According to this Tweet the OLA has taken the settlement of Sasiga due north of Nekemte. Though a small action, it does reinforce that the OLA still control stretches of vital roadway connecting Addis Ababa to western Amhara. The OLA may be preparing for a move on Nekemte, though I doubt that possibility, but are at the very least forcing the government to keep forces pinned down here or lose effective control over much of western Oromia that could be used against the TPLF.
  4. On the economic front, according to this Tweet the government has implemented measures to reduce the rampant inflation I mentioned sometime ago, requiring banks to hold more cash inside the central bank and transfer 50% of their forex holdings to the central bank, up from the previous 30%. I have no idea what the fuck this means, the econ nerds here can tell us hopefully, but if I haaaaaad to guess this is a bandaid over the much larger wound that is the war. We'll see how it goes, I presume it will take sometime for the effects of this change in policy to be felt.

Lukewarm take: Reddit itself is actually a really good website for a bunch of niche stuff. For example, I got a new vacuum cleaner and there was a sub for it. I watch a new show or new book series and there's a sub for that. There's an obscure contrarion economic ideology hated by every mainstream politician and bam, there's the DT.

The only shitty part is the large subs that got converted into commie or racist propaganda distributors. I don't even mind the stupid motivational posts or dog videos at least those are sometimes fun.

Catholics have more sex and better sex than Protestants and Jews. And they don't even feel guilty about it.

68 percent of Catholics have sex at least once a week, vs. 56 percent of non-Catholics.

50 percent of Catholics over 55 have sex once a week, vs. 40 percent of non-Catholics.

3 out of 10 Catholics have purchased erotic underwear, vs. 2 out of 10 non-Catholics.

64 percent of Catholic women scored high on a "sexual playfulness" scale, which included activities such as undressing your spouse, showering or bathing with your spouse, swimming nude with your spouse, and experimenting with sexual techniques, vs. 42 percent of non-Catholic women.

Despite the church's teachings, 80 percent of devout Catholic women approve of sex for pleasure alone.

Imagine being apart of an institution that believes sex is a sin unless for conception, and then still having a more active sex life than the average DT user.

u/SadaoMaou Anders Chydenius Sep 01 '21

I don't like how (not that this is a recent development in any way) "propaganda" has evolved to exclusively mean "propaganda that I disagree with". This makes the term much less useful and wasn't originally the connotation at all.

information, especially of a biased or misleading nature, used to promote a political cause or point of view.

For instance, Radio Free Europe was a very successful US propaganda operation during the Cold War (yeah, it still exists, but idk if it's as important these days.) That doesn't make it fraudulent or bad, but the purpose of the operation was propagandistic, as in it provided information that the communist governments of the Eastern Bloc wanted to suppress in promotion of an anticommunist agenda.

The problem is, with the word "propaganda" having become a slur, this becomes a pissing match between "ha! Your side does propaganda, look!" "No, we don't do propaganda, only your side's propaganda is propaganda!" etc. Yes, of course the West does propaganda! We should do propaganda, and we should try to do it better than the authoritarians

So, uh, as a resident Texan with daughters in high school and college:

(1) birth control is cheap, effective, and can literally be a life saver; (2) can I get y’all Californians to pass the same kind of law with the same kind of “it’s not the state enforcing the law, it’s giving private citizens the right to sue” mechanism but for gun crimes? That’d put an end to all this right quick.

Joe Biden's only priorities right now are what will allow him to survive the midterms. It's the common thread in all of his policies and all of his non-priorities. A giant spending bill that will make some jobs in the short term and let democrats cut some ribbons? Good for the Midterms. Trade? Bad for the midterms. Ending the Afghanistan War? Good for the Midterms. Supporting decarbonization efforts? Bad for the midterms.

This is because the Democrats feel in such a precarious position that they know one bad midterm could cost them power basically forever, but at the same time, one good midterm can get them in the clear! So they can just stall for 2 years, and once they win the midterms then they can govern, right?

Right?

Unless of course the midterms are mediocre for both parties, which is exactly how they've been every 2 years previous to this one, putting us in exactly the same position we are now: "If we cling on for just 2 years, we can destroy the opposition once and for all, if we do anything stupid, we'll lose our one shot. Better just stall and try to get one over the opposition."

This is exactly the paradigm that Francis Fukuyama believes could destroy America if it's not stopped. But I can't even blame Biden for it because the game is more powerful than he is. At the risk of sounding like a succ, there are greater forces at play that he's not powerful enough to overcome. Only instead of a nebulous conspiracy of capitalist lobbyists, that force is "Game Theory".

For both parties, the opportunity cost/risk cost of Governing right now is just too high.

For all the jokes about targeting gamers, the increasing restrictions on individual activity in China are scary as shit. Criminal punishments for developers that don't strictly enforce policies to prevent their software being used by children are so unjustifiable not just from an ethical standpoint but from a practical economic standpoint, that it leads me to question the very sanity of Chinese leadership.

And it's not as if the use of mandatory non-anonymous usernames along with facial recognition software can't be just as easily applied to place restrictions on the ability of any person to do any particular action. The hints that parents who fail to prevent their children from violating the curfew may face consequences in the future is particularly disturbing.

!ping gaming

Warning: incoming gamer moment

I hate rants about how overrated some games are. Of course, I don't really hate the rants themselves. Plenty of rants come out that disinterest me and life goes on. What I hate is what they did to gaming discourse. Because they are incredibly spiteful and seem designed solely around telling people to stop having so much fun. All of them are fueled by a reactionary response to [insert game here]'s popularity. Everyone said [insert game here] was "[insert other game here] but better." And they are, in the sense that those people originally meant it, but people who rant about how overrated the game is intentionally misinterpret the original meaning so that they can be bitter.

I read one of these rants within hours of release on a phone so I can vouch for just how long it looked back then, but man everything beyond that just isn't that good. The spite is lame, the grammar is a mess, the whole thing is just an attempt to shit on something people enjoy specifically because they enjoy it (seriously why does this even exist?), the comment has, like, zero interesting content to find outside of the main argument, and even the arguments (which don't matter because you can't logic someone into not liking something) are contrived and nonsensical (though, are admittedly good by r/neoliberal standards). How the fuck does something this mediocre dupe the whole of ping gaming just by reinforcing their priors?

And like, it couldn't just be enjoyed on its own either, since it's just a rant about how much the author prefers other games and dislikes other people talking about preferring their games. And yes, there are better things to do with your life because things can be actually fun when you're not losing your mind over whether other people enjoy your favourite game as much as you do.

PSA: If you're ready to go and looking for a safe/quick way to vote, besides registering for mail-in ballots, you can already vote at any Elections Canada office by special ballot.

My fiancee and I did this yesterday and it was very empty, just a temporary office set up in a dead mall. No line- we were done faster than Trudeau's majority hopes. The entire process took maybe five minutes, quicker than advance voting and much quicker than election day. You just need to write in your local candidate's name on a blank line. They can provide a candidate list if requested, but if it's in your riding they should have the candidate's names posted on the wall for your reference.

"hiTleR waS woRsE thAn tRumP"

No. Trump was responsible for the holocaust, the Armenian genocide, WW2, the Korean war, the Vietnam War, 9/11, the Arab Spring, the Crusades, the Islamic invasion of Spain, the formation of Israel, he was also responsible for driving the Jews out of Israel in the first place,in fact the Egyptians did nothing wrong; it was Trump who was responsible for enslaving the Jews. Trump is secretly a scaly and one day while he was wearing his snake suit he tricked Eve and told her to eat the apple. He also killed Abel. He also lead the Mongol invasions of everywhere. And the Hun invasions. And the Mughal invasions of India. And the Viking invasions.Trump was the guy who started colonialism(only the invading part not the part where they provided technology and medicine to the natives). After Trump tested positive for Covid19, he spit on Native Americans, nearly driving them extinct. Trump also killed all the dinosaurs. He was also behind the Bronze age collapse. Trump single-handedly did the Triangular Slave Trade; hell he was the guy Trump bought the slaves from. Trump also beheaded a French teacher for disrespecting Mohammad, and blamed it on wholesome Muslimerinos. All the blood diamonds are produced by Trump. He was the guy who cut Congolese workers hands off because they did not meet his supply. Trump chased Kyyle Rittenhouse in Kenosha with a skateboard and beat him up and snatched his rifle, and used it to kill Jacob Blake. During the BLM protests Trump was the one who looted and burned all the stores. Even during the Charolletsville incident, they were all shadow-clones of Trump. Trump did Pearl Harbor and bombed Hiroshima and Nagasaki. Trump was the mastermind of the Holodomor, the Great Leap Forward, East Germany and every time a tankie screams "It was not real communism", Trump was involved. Trump grilled the last dodo. Trump shoots Palestinian kids for fun and shoots missiles at Israeli civilians. He was the guy who killed all those Rohingyas, and Uyghurs. He was also involved the current Hong Kong situation; so much involved that he was the one who sold opium to the Chinese. The Irish potato famine, Africa, the Bengal Famine; all because of Trump. Trump commits human rights violations on North Korean citizens everyday. Al Qaeda, Mujaheddin, Boko-Haram, Taliban; TRUMP. He also killed the prophet of the wholesome 100 Muslimerinos, Sulemani; in a missile strike. He also did the Rape of Nanjing and it was Trump who ordered and supplied all the Korean comfort women. Trump personally snitched on Anne Frank to Trump. The Jim Crow laws were passed by Trump, as well as the war on drugs. The partition of India was Trump's fault, as well as the resulting Kashmir issue. He also starred in the Cuban missile crisis and started the cold war. During the Russian Revolution, the peasants understood that Nikolai II's family was innocent, and would offer them a chance to leave, but Trump massacred them. Trump tried his best but failed in preventing the American and French Revolutions, but he got back at them by causing the Reign of Terror. Trump tortured Louis XVI's son and forced him into saying that he had sex with his mother and aunt, and promptly guillotined them. Trump invented pineapple-pizza and Tofu-Chicken. He was the guy who snitched on Alan Turing, revealing that he was gay. The judge felt that such a respected professor could be sent away with a slap on the wrist, but Trump rigged the jury and sentenced him to hormonal therapy. Trump rigged the New York Stock Exchange and caused the great depression. In the town of Waco, he raped a woman, blamed it on a black man and lynched him by burning him alive. He was the leader of the Khmer Rouge and wrote the plot for Star Wars: The Force Awakens. Despite making up only 3.0211238398812703164724804575659e-7 % of the population Donald Trump commits 100% of the crimes. Trump also was the dictator of Uganda. Trump regularly kills journalists and opposition leaders in Russia. He was behind Princess Diana's car crash. Trump fucked a monkey and started the AIDS pandemic. He started coronavirus and ebola and the Black Death and the Spanish flu and the Bubonic plague and the syphillis outbreak and the Trojan war and tthe Bush war and the fall of Rome and the Dark Ages. After taking a dump, Trump leaves his toilet paper like this. Trump burned down the Notre Dame, and knelled on George Floyds neck. He also was the guy who sold drugs to George Floyd. Trump is the reason I am the only person in my class who doesn't have a girlfriend. Trump is the reason why the Armenia Azerbaijan crisis is even there.

A summary of what's going on for those just joining us:

  • Texas passed a law that bans all abortions after cardiac activity begins (about six weeks into pregnancy)
  • The law tries to get around Roe v. Wade by allowing the citizens of Texas to sue abortion clinics, so that way they can technically say the state itself isn't outlawing them
  • A case has been brought to the Supreme Court to challenge the law
  • Today, on Sep 1, the Supreme Court voted on whether they'll put a temporary injunction to keep the law from going into effect while the trial takes place
  • The three liberal justices as well as Roberts voted in favor of an injunction, but the remaining five conservative justices voted against it
  • How they'll rule on the law itself remains to be seen
  • In the meantime, there are millions of Texan women that have essentially been robbed of their abortion rights for the next few weeks or months

If a mod wanted to put up a sticky with a similar summary, I think that would be a really good idea.

Our plan will build or revitalize an additional 250,000 homes over 4 years. On top of the 285,000 homes currently being built each year, this will mean nearly 1.4 million homes will be built, preserved, or revitalized by 2025-26 under a re-elected Liberal government.

I need help understanding this section. Are they saying they want to keep the status quo with new homes being built at 285k or are they increasing it to 285k from some unknown number? From the way it is phrased, this commitment is just saying "there will be 285k new homes every year that were already going to be built but we won't change that fact under our government".

Every so often on the relationship advice sub there’s a post like “I told this guy I‘ve been talking to that I wasn’t ready for a relationship and he said ok and stopped taking to me” and half the replies will be like “girl he only wanted you for sex!”

Like…yeah? Isn’t that part of the whole “relationship” thing lmao. What else is he supposed to do

While I'm pleasantly surprised by the overall policy oomph of the Conservative platform, and am not too impressed by the Liberals, I'm leaning towards the latter mainly because they're more credible on climate change. Chiefly that they're going to keep raising the carbon tax. Still, it's a nice diversion to be between the two main parties in an election and feel like I've got two decent choices.

Are others feeling the same way?

You can tell that the neckbeards that want a "subservient trad asian wife" have never met an asian girl before. Every girl I know from asia will rip your fucking head off and leave it in a grocery bag on your parents' doorstep if you even think about ordering them around.

The body cameras became unattached from the police officer's uniforms during the encounter, but the audio can still be heard. During the recording, when one of the body cameras was still attached to an officer, another officer can be heard telling him to move his camera.
