I asked this before. Allowing retards to use the reading thread to """debate""" using their faggy-ass sub-literate """libertarian""" cliches was a weird decision, and apparently purely a consequence of us just being very chill.

Ok

>I really don't care that Nixon bugged or wiretapped a few phones,
Again with your reading comprehension, my point wasn't whether Watergate was right or wrong IT WAS THAT REPUBLICAN PRESIDENTS ALWAYS HAVE SOMETHING FUCK ROCK STUPID HAPPEN THAT ENDS THEIR PRESIDENCY and Trump will be no exception.

>>494506
>THE VAST MAJORITY OF ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS COME HERE ON VISAS AND OVERSTAY STUPID!
Yes, and? You said that several times already. They will be deported all the same. And for overstaying their visa this long they should get barred from ever getting a new one.
>NO YOU DUMB FUCK IT'S REPUBLICAN BUSINESS OWNERS THAT KEEP THEM IN!
Quit pretending like Democrats don't have incentive to keep illegal immigrants too (and not just for labor reasons). Illegal immigrants count towards the census, and electoral college votes and congressional seats are appointed by a state's population size. This gives Democrats more power in congress the more illegals they harbor in their sanctuary states to bolster numbers. You'll recall Trump wanting to put a citizenship question on the census in his first term, and Democrats loosing their minds over it and striking it down. Democrats will concentrate as many illegal immigrants as they can in their cities, and they don't care how much harm it causes innocent people, because again, it gives them more power. But now we're dismantling that, and it's got you mad.
>YOU IDIOT! YOU'RE NOT INTERESTED IN MY STRATEGY THAT WOULD MAKE ILLEGALS LEAVE!
Why would anyone want to listen to any strategy your side has? Your side welcomed in all of the 3rd world. You let them walk all over us. Your side caused all this and cheered it on. You don't have my best interests at mind. Sit down and think about what you've done, let the grown-ups take care of it.

We're not liberals.

>Yes, and? You said that several times already.
>I'm just going to keep pretending that you didn't just tell me that that the security theater at the border is completely ineffective at stopping immigration after making a big deal about the number of illegal border crossing dropping.
Bruh, we're not Reddit. We're going to remember what you said, and what you already told you.
> They will be deported all the same.
No they won't because ICE can only recruit literal retards that can't pass a reading test.
>Quit pretending like Democrats don't have incentive to keep illegal immigrants too
Quit pretending that Republicans demonstrably have been the ones intentionally bringing in illegals and you dumb fucks keep voting them in without fail because they tell you you're better than a black person kek.
>Illegal immigrants count towards the census, and electoral college votes and congressional seats are appointed by a state's population size.
Most immigrants are heading to red states. You are once again cutting your own throat. Honestly you should be grateful for how incompetent the Democrats are, any other political body would have crushed you long ago.
>You'll recall Trump wanting to put a citizenship question on the census in his first term, and Democrats loosing their minds over it and striking it down.
This is the tenth time you've been told the Social Security Administration already knows where every single goddamn illegal is.
You keep crying about the democrats when literally everything they need is already in the hands of the GoP. And believe me they know this, they're playin you fool.
>Why would anyone want to listen to any strategy your side has?
Because it would work.

Being retard isn't going to get you out of this.
Illegal border crossings were never the cause of illegal immigration. It was always expired visas.
But Trump lights up your neurons with images of beaners getting booted back across the border and you completely ignore this reality.
>>494489
>Regan gave amnesty to millions of illegal immigrants
It's funny you bring up Reagan because illegal immigration has been in issue since at least then. And yet 45 years and 4 Republican presidents later, there's more illegals than ever.
B-b-b-b-but Trump is different this time right? He isn't afraid to be racist in public! He's a real one like you!
Honestly I can't even be mad at Republicans for using you like this, you're all so stupid if it wasn't them manipulating you it'd be someone else.

This is extremely sinister! Israel plans to turn Gaza into a "cashless society" where the IDF fully controls who has access to e-money, who one can transact with, how much, & who starves to death

This would be the ultimate tool of blackmail & pacification against journalists, critics, activists…etc. Any Palestinian would always be one click away from losing access to their Israel-controlled e-wallets. Israel can simply call anyone they don't like "khamas" & suspend their digital wallets, who's going to double check?

Palestinians under Israel's military rule are not citizens, are ruled by "army regulations" not law, & have no course to appeal Israeli decisions. E.g. Israel bans people from leaving Gaza arbitrarily under unexplained unappealable "security pretexts".

One of the reforms the US has been demanding of the PA is to transform the Palestinian economy into an Israel-controlled "cashless society". Israel has been refusing European demands to rebuild the existing banking sector in Gaza & instead Israel kept pitching this "digital wallet" system.

The upgraded internet access will only be established in the "new Rafah" concentration camp as a way of luring people to move in there (remember, yesterday, Kushner & his video only mentioned reconstruction of "new Rafah", not all of Gaza).

The "amazon style logistics" will also be an Israeli controlled platform; meaning more blackmail & arbitrary restrictions.

Liran Tancman, the speaker here, is an architect of Israel's murderous GHF & the "gated communities" plan (concentration camps).

Israel plans 'unprecedented strikes' in Lebanon, Yemen, Iraq as part of US–Iran war: Report
Axis of Resistance members have vowed to fight Israel if it attacks Iran

The Israeli army is preparing to carry out “massive and unprecedented” strikes against Iran-backed resistance movements in the region should they support the Islamic Republic in any war against Israel, Al-Sharq al-Awsat reported on 20 February.

Citing Israeli military sources, the Saudi-owned paper said Israel was preparing for possible strikes against Hezbollah in Lebanon, Ansarallah in Yemen, and resistance factions in Iraq.

Israel is currently pressuring US President Donald Trump to initiate a new war against Iran. In January, Trump ordered an “armada” of US naval forces to West Asia in preparation for a possible attack.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said on Thursday his military is making its own preparations for possible missile strikes on Iran, alongside any US action.

“We are prepared for any scenario,” he said, adding that if Iran attacks Israel, “they will experience a response they cannot even imagine.”

A military source said Ansarallah poses a “direct threat not just to Israel, but to the whole world,” accusing the Yemeni movement of impeding international trade in the Red Sea.

Zei Squirrel:
Tucker Carlson's interview with Mike Huckabee was astonishing. You have an ostensibly US ambassador saying that the US is more murderous and barbaric than Israel, that killing children is great because they're KHAMAS, and Israel should take the entire Middle East because God gave it to them, though without being able to coherently define what exactly constitutes an Israeli Jew who has the right to all that land ("it's religion, but it includes atheists; it's language, but they didn't speak that language; it's having lived there for centuries, but they didn't; it's genetics, but we can't do genetic testing to determine it"). This is the most deranged fanatical Christian Zionist lunacy, and it's at the heart of US politics, and totally bipartisan.

Chuck Schumer and Hakeem Jeffries have the exact same politics as Huckabee, and so that Bernie Sanders objectively. Because when you pretend to recognize a genocide, but say we should vow to forever arm and fund that genocide because Israel is our ally and it has the right to be a Jewish supremacist apartheid genocidal death-cult pedophile rape-regime, that's the Huckabee position. It's the hegemonic norm in the US media and political class, because it's a colony. The ruling class of the US are comprised of Zionists and their slaves who prioritize the Jewish supremacist pedophilic rape-cult above everything.

Anonymous submission from the Death to Toll campaign:

We organise on the stolen lands of multiple sovereign nations in so-called Australia.

We honour their elders, martyrs and resistance warriors by joining their struggle for their lands' return.

Seven months ago we launched our campaign against the Australian and Japanese company TOLL in retaliation for its colonial and imperial violence. We cannot allow TOLL to facilitate and profit from genocide unopposed and we call on the world to help make our coordinated campaign against TOLL an international one.

TOLL facilitates the genocide in Palestine by transporting bombs to Israel via the US. They have contracts with private weapons companies supplying Israel and work with the Australian and American governments to arm the Zionist entity.

TOLL facilitates genocide of First Nations people in so-called Australia through systematic land theft and destruction, desecration of sacred sites and the poisoning of waters.

TOLL works with the US Department of War supporting American warships in the Middle East and Asia-Pacific, including the USS Abraham Lincoln, currently committing aggression against Iran.

"His new site would offer the kind of freedom that 4chan’s users now perceived they no longer had. They would be constrained only by 8chan’s global rule, “Do not post, request, or link to any content that is illegal in the United States of America and do not create boards with the sole purpose of posting or spreading such content.” (The wording of the rule was tweaked slightly in May 2017.)"

"Copyrighted content and child pornography ran afoul of this rule and were supposed to be policed by the mostly volunteer moderators, but that didn’t always happen. Boards on pedophilia and “doxxing”—releasing someone’s personal information like home address and phone number, which often led to online and offline harassment—were allowed, as were legally gray-area images like softcore pictures of kids."


"The initial New York Times piece generated considerable interest in Brennan’s hardships. In a video filmed at the time, Aaron Parnes, the CEO of Razor Clicks—a company Brennan was then working for—says the outpouring of donations to help Brennan purchase a new wheelchair was restoring Brennan's "faith in the good of humanity and his courage to continue doing his best for himself and others.” (The news network Al Jazeera America also covered Brennan, producing a short documentary “The Other America: Fredrick Brennan.”)"

"But just a few months after Parnes, who is Jewish, was appealing for help for Brennan, Brennan was soliciting advice from 8chan users for a piece he was planning to write for the neo-Nazi publication The Daily Stormer. He posted a list of potential article ideas on 8chan, a list that was accompanied by images of beer cans dressed as members of the Klu Klux Klan attending a lynching."

"One idea was “shitting on ‘moot’ and 4chan,” but he ultimately settled on writing about his support of eugenics for people like himself with genetic diseases. The article, which was published four days later, ran under the headline “Hotwheels: Why I Support Eugenics.” (Brennan used Hotwheels as a handle online.) He says he wouldn’t write for the The Daily Stormer again, but he stands by the article’s content. (The article argues that people who can pass serious diseases on to their children could be offered money not to reproduce.*) “Was it smart to be in a NaziPost too long.

"Publicly, Brennan was the face of 8chan, granting interviews and partaking in debates to defend the site. One of his most popular defenses was likening 8chan to the phone company or the postal service—just providing the conduit for the messages. “It's not our fault that these people are using our service like that,”"

ONE WAR AFTER ANOTHER | Iran talks fail | Trump’s racist video | Mandelson busted | Starmer anger
🔥 ONE WAR AFTER ANOTHER.
From failed Iran talks to political scandal at home, the world is lurching from crisis to crisis — and tonight on The Mother of All Talkshows, George Galloway is live to expose what’s really driving the chaos.

George opens with a powerful monologue as Iran talks collapse, tensions rise across the Middle East, and Gaza remains under fire. With diplomacy failing and war drums beating louder, the risk of a wider regional conflict is growing by the day.

🎖️ Lt. Col. Daniel L. Davis, retired US Army officer and host of Daniel Davis Deep Dive, joins George live for US News. From Iran and Israel to Ukraine and NATO, Davis delivers a hard-headed military assessment of where Western strategy is heading — and why one war now leads inevitably to another.

The programme then turns to the political scandals shaking Britain and the West. Trump’s racist video, the renewed controversy surrounding Peter Mandelson, and mounting public anger at Keir Starmer are all dissected as trust in political leadership continues to erode.

📁 The Epstein Files return with Shaun Attwood, as disturbing questions refuse to go away. Who is still being protected? Why do the same names keep surfacing? And why does accountability never seem to reach the top?

WAR WH*RE | Netanyahu White House lobby | Epstein and Andrew | Canada shootings | Starmer clings on
🔥 The war machine is roaring again — and tonight on The Mother of All Talkshows, George Galloway takes aim at the political class that feeds it.

From Washington to Tel Aviv, from Gaza to Moscow, power, propaganda and political survival collide in a world lurching from crisis to crisis.

George opens with a blistering monologue on Benjamin Netanyahu, the White House lobby, and the deep entanglement between US politics and Israel’s war strategy. As Gaza remains under bombardment and tensions with Iran escalate, we ask: who is driving the conflict — and who profits from it?

Joining live is Chris Hedges — Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist, former New York Times correspondent, and host of The Chris Hedges Report. Hedges delivers a devastating assessment of the moral collapse of Western leadership, the Gaza war, Washington’s complicity, and the growing authoritarian drift in US politics.

Then, live from Moscow, Professor Seyed Mohammad Marandi joins the programme to analyse the Iran angle, shifting global alliances, Russia’s position, and what the White House doesn’t want you to hear about Tehran, Ukraine, and the widening fault lines in global power.

We also examine:
– The resurfacing of the Epstein Files and renewed scrutiny around Andrew
– The Canada shootings and the political fallout

Photography isn't a derivative artwork.

Your criticism might be more valid by saying sampled music, such as that created by the avalanches, isn't art. That was a popular debate at the time.

However small samples and even long ones have mainstream acceptance in music nowadays. The difference is an artist made something using other people's art, versus the machine making it. The difference is who controls the creative process. A prompt isn't creative as an art piece, it's creative as a prompt.

Best I can do to explain it.

>The difference is an artist made something using other people's art, versus the machine making it. The difference is who controls the creative process. A prompt isn't creative as an art piece, it's creative as a prompt.

>Best I can do to explain it.

This sentiment is hypocritical.
AI art is sampling. Just because a machine determines the end product doesn't mean it's entirely automated.

AI art uses pre-existing data.
It often requires multiple samples of the same type of art to get it right

Can you guys plz just focus on making memes

Lebanon.

>>494397
That's the first genuine L I've seen the empire take in some time. Venezuela folded like a wet paper bag and Hamas got rekt by pager grenades. If this is a preview of how the impending war is going to go, America haters everywhere are going to have a lot to cheer for.

>>494436
>Hamas got rekt by pager grenades.
That was Hezbollah, although Nasrallah himself was ultimately killed when the "Israelis" dropped 80 bunker buster bombs on 6 blocks of apartments in Beirut in a single operation.

Hamas has been insanely good at enduring. They've lost multiple leaders, and easily had the deadliest attacks on them and their countrymen of any group this century, but the last deal they agreed to was nearly identical to a proposal they had before "Israel" even launched a ground invasion in October 2023. I don't call any of that victory (although they did have a small victory with one previous prisoner exchange in 2025), but inability of the "Israelis" and US to force them to do anything politically by military means has at least been striking.

Yemen also humiliated the US in early 2025, and has maintained its stance of only stopping the attacks on zio shipping during "ceasefires" in Gaza, even though they took significant losses to their upper ranks later last year.

The Grayzone on Israel's use of US politicians to advance Iran war.

The bit with Brett McGurk is particularly damning wrt US media - to this day these weasels just go and lie outright on TV to justify their wars.

Police arrest man with shotgun running towards US Capitol building
The suspect, identified as Carter Camacho from Smyrna, Georgia, was wearing a tactical vest and gloves and had additional ammunition alongside a shotgun.

Police in Washington, DC, have arrested an 18-year-old man as he ran towards the Capitol Building, home to the US Congress, armed with a loaded shotgun and extra ammunition.

The suspect, identified as Carter Camacho from Smyrna in the state of Georgia, was wearing a tactical vest and gloves, and had additional ammunition along with the loaded shotgun, police said on Tuesday.

The suspect had run “several hundred yards” towards the Capitol Building, brandishing a combat-style shotgun, before he was intercepted by police, the US Capitol Police Chief Michael Sullivan said.

Officers challenged the suspect and ordered him to drop the gun. He complied with the order, lay on the ground and was arrested and taken into custody, police said.

No motive was given by police, who said the suspect’s actions were under investigation, including whether he intended to target Congress, which is not currently in session.

Of course the right to protest is inherent to humans regardless of what the laws dictate.
