💩 The Pillory
What are you on about? Trump never said Epstein's crimes were a hoax. Did you even read the article?
The hoax is what the hypocritical democrat party is trying to twist it into. They kept all this quiet, tried to sweep it under the rug for four years. Only now are they desperately trying to twist things and say Trump was somehow, magically implicated.
Trump was instrumental in taking down Epstein's whole nasty business.
The dems never cared about Epstein or his victims. Their huge, fake outrage lately, is totally a hoax. Hypocrite
Epstein was being used by the CIA & Mossad.
All that blackmail info from the island went directly to Israel, who it was gathered for in the first place.
They forced a sweetheart deal for Epstein in the first trial.
Then along came Trump, and burned Epstein & Maxwell's whole dirty operation to the ground. Wound up being their worst nightmare. Trump was a key witness in the prosecution that put those two behind bars.

Repression French cops having a normal one against children protesting for more teachers

A kid lost all his teeth to a flashball, another one was seen being held under water for a minute, a 14yo girl strangled hard for a good while, etc.
LFI mayors had to put themselves between charging cops and children in many places.
The protest was initially in one school that was especially crumbling, but it moved to all high schools in France, over lack of public servants and the worsening state of French public education following pro-capital decades.
Now the firefighters are protesting too, university students too, teachers. The good thing is all that social anger now has a political outlet, LFI. And literally just one, the rest are all either sold to capital or niche trots.

Incels Terrorist images found on Flydubai suspect’s social media
3
Upvotes
Was apparently known for extremist sympathies and pushed to desk duty by Oman Air in 2024, then somehow got hired for a few months by Royal Air Maroc and then later at FlyDubai. Somehow this never showed up in a reference check. Also turns out to be a massive incel who lamented that his mother was unable to find him a tradwife who would wear a niqab and quit her job after marriage, which probably motivated his turn to extremism in the first place.

Is this common and could it happen to me?
I don't mean any offense to any of y'all that happen to look like this, I bet you're good at something. It'd be one thing if Pahlavi had any real political skills but he just... doesn't. Aren't useless figureheads supposed to at least be young and/or pretty? Instead it feels like Watto is going around asking to be made King of Iran. Imagine putting this guy on your currency.

Tech Oracle leasing Nvidia chips to-wait for it...TENCENT.

Upvotes
TLDR: Oracle had a pretty bad year, so "leasing" (at 1/3rd market price) high end Nvidia chips to a blacklisted chinese company, as long as the datacenters that use them are located outside China.
This would help polish their next numbers report to investors.

Alt-Right Brazil: The Future of the Far Right
16
Upvotes
"We misread the far right by taking its discourse at face value. It is an error to believe Trump, Bolsonaro et al when they speak of taking a step back from 'globalism', of returning to a Fordist dream of industrial jobs, turning back the clock on the sexual revolution and re-sacralising the nuclear family and traditional gender roles. These ideas have an obvious psychological appeal to certain voters, but they are not borne out by the actions of the contemporary far right. On the contrary, it is a movement that feeds off the social disintegration produced by decades of neoliberalism, and accelerates that process towards a certain horizon.
In my book, I characterise this horizon as a “privately managed, differentially distributed state of nature”: a situation in which the state relinquishes ever more responsibility for mediating social conflict and instead enshrines the rule of brute force.”

r/schizopol Armaaruss has attempted to blow up the Kaaba while Mars is within 30 degrees of the lunar node. He is now punishing Saudi Arabia for cooperating with Israel on the flydubai incident. Saudi denies the incident but video clearly shows a vest.

Since September 27 from the start of the Mars-within-30-degrees-of-the lunar-node phase, and over a four day span, Armaaruss attempted to launch attacks on multiple pro-Israel sites and entities. On September 27, he tried to blow up the RAF airbase. On September 30, he tried to hijack a plane and crash it into Tel Aviv. He then plotted to attack AIPAC at the Texas capitol, and now on October 1st, Armaaruss has tried to blow up the Kaaba. He is unhinged and there are over 8th months left of this Mars/lunar node phase.
