I have no idea what that was about, perhaps our server was hit as part of a larger attack. Since we're back and nothing really could have been done about it, I just decided to let you know here.

okay but how can I make money from the incoming disaster?

which non-meme corpo should I invest money in?

>>492303
I would personally recommend buying land, guns, ammo, and food.

I guess if you were looking to invest in something, you might want to go with a company that people will panic buy from. My mind immediately went to shorting before that, though, and I don't know precisely how to predict who to short… or how to make sure that you get paid for a short, since major economic crashes make collecting for cynical bets difficult. Personally, I think this coming crash could be so bad that betting on the success even of industries which people buy a lot from during crises might not even be reliable, but I'm not an investor. I guess I should have led with "I'm not an investor."

Craig Mokhiber - If the UN Security Council adopts Trump’s colonial proposal today, as it appears poised to do, it will represent the greatest betrayal of the Palestinian people, the rules of international law, and the principles of self-determination and decolonization, since the UN adopted the partition plan in 1947 against the will of the indigenous people, setting the stage for 80 years of Nakba. And it will drive the last nail in the coffin of UN legitimacy. But this ruse will not succeed. And history will remember the collaborators who bowed to the empire to allow this to happen.

Commander of allied Hamas faction killed in Israeli undercover attack: Report
An allied faction of Hamas has said that one of its commanders was killed today in what it called an Israeli undercover attack.

The Palestinian Resistance Committees (PRC) confirmed the death of local armed leader Waseem Abdel-Hadi near Deir el-Balah in central Gaza, Reuters reported.

The group said his death was the result of a “cowardly and treacherous assassination operation”.

There was no immediate comment on the reported killing from the Israeli military.

Israeli army confirms killing two more Palestinians in Gaza, accuses them of crossing “yellow line”
The Israeli army has said it killed two Palestinians crossing the yellow line, a demarcation line separating areas under Israeli control, in two separate incidents.

The army accused both of posing threats to Israeli forces, failing to provide evidence for those claims.

Since a ceasefire came into force in October, sporadic fighting has taken place in Gaza with Israeli forces killing more than 200 Palestinians. Dozens of them have been killed for approaching or crossing the yellow line, which Palestinians say is not often marked or clear.

Courtney Bonneau - Major expansion at Israeli occupation site in Labbouneh, Lebanon.

HAMAS:

A call to the ummah and the free people of the world to continue mobilizing to pressure the occupation and its backers to stop its attacks, end the siege, and open the crossings.

The worsening humanitarian catastrophe in the Gaza Strip requires urgent action to save civilians and bring in aid, tents, and temporary housing.

The tragic conditions our people are living in after two years of genocidal war in the Gaza Strip, the absence of food, medicine, clean water, tents and shelter, and the collapse of the health system, pose a real danger to the lives of unarmed civilians, especially children and women, particularly in winter with heavy rain.

We hold the Zionist fascist occupation fully responsible for its continued violations of the agreement to end the war, its escalating aggression against our people in Gaza, its continued closure of the crossings, and its obstruction of the entry of humanitarian and relief aid.

We call on the guarantor states of the agreement to pressure the occupation to implement the humanitarian protocol and to open the crossings, foremost among them Rafah Crossing, to allow the entry of relief and medical aid, tents, emergency shelter, and to allow the exit of patients and the movement of people both ways.

We reaffirm that the continued international silence and incapacity in the face of the ongoing crimes of the fascist occupation in Gaza will only deepen the humanitarian disaster for more than two million Palestinians who are besieged and deprived of the basics of life because of this brutal genocide.

We call on the masses of our Arab and Muslim ummah and the free people of the world to continue their popular mobilization and public actions to pressure the occupation and its supporters to stop its attacks on civilians, end the siege, and open the crossings in a sustained manner to bring in aid and emergency shelter to the Gaza Strip.

Epstein fed questions to Del. Plaskett (Congress, US Virgin Islands) during the Michael Cohen (Trump attorney) congressional hearings in 2019.

His emails to her appear to dictate the things she says.

So what is noam chomskies relation to the files?
Is /ourguy/ pedofag?

>>492300
I doubt that Chomsky was a pedophile, but I have some difficulties making sense of his exact relation to Epstein… maybe in part because what's come out about Chomsky, thus far, as far as I know, has been somewhat less salacious than what's come out about others.

That being said, I've seen it suggested that Chomsky was controlled-opposition, deliberately, and subtly, guiding opinion on the left away from harsher anti-Zionist action and critique of the Zionist lobby and towards DNC entryism. I don't know if that's right or wrong, but if you put a gun to my head I'd probably say it's more likely to be right. I think Chomsky was a really smart guy who said a lot of true things, but that makes him all the more valuable if he's willing to say things which are useful to the people Epstein worked for.

⭕️ Larry Summers’ “wing man” = Convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein

Former Harvard president and former Treasury secretary Larry Summers spent months in 2018–2019 seeking Epstein’s advice as he pursued a romantic relationship with a woman he described as a mentee, according to the Harvard Crimson.

Summers forwarded her emails, discussed her “outfits,” and asked Epstein to estimate “the probability of my getting horizontal w peril.”

Summers kept confiding in Epstein even after the 2018 Miami Herald investigation detailed accusations from 80 girls and women and while the DOJ was reexamining Epstein’s 2008 plea deal. Their private messages stop on July 5, 2019 — the day before Epstein was arrested.

The Honduran-born Charlotte resident filed a police report after the officers let him go.

I'm not sure I have two hours to spend on this, but here's an interesting counterpoint article by Patrick Lawrence from a couple weeks ago. He points out that Platner actually has a lot of working class policies:

>>492295
You're going purely by what he says - but Platner's background is as a hired enforcer of the American state. His step brother, and close friend, is an Israeli asset. Platner isn't what he says he is, and his money and material interests are, at best, on the side of imperialist warfare with bigger scraps for workers and, at worst, just with imperialist warfare with the offer of scraps purely being bait to get him into office.

>>492297
>but Platner's background is as a hired enforcer of the American state.
Tbh I should have been more specific when I said this, because it's really his time with Blackwater and the sheer length of his time in the military which seals this for me. His affiliation with private mercenaries makes it all considerably worse. He hasn't even turned against this; he advocates for expansion of the US military and higher pay for members of the military. Instead of taking his military experience and using it to educate revolutionaries, or using his contacts to turn servicemembers, he has decided to run for office on a platform which aims to make it more difficult to turn servicemembers at all, and which uses his past experience as a mercenary as a boast rather than a skillset to lend to a real opposition.

If he was willing to kill for a private, for-profit mercenary group, what immoral things would he be willing to do for the DNC?

>>492298
He just seems like a psychopath to be honest. Someone should inform him he has more in common with Gaius Marius than Smedley Butler.

>>492287
I've taken a while to get almost to the end. I agree with almost everything he says here, except I think that his characterization of what is said in the Chapo clip isn't entirely accurate - particularly, Felix was careful not to even de facto endorse Platner. Will tried to endorse Platner in a "lowkey" way and fell on his face and looked like a stupid idiot, but Felix Biederman decidedly avoided that. BE's still right to criticize them, though.

New Age Verification Bills Could Ban VPNs, Jeopardize the Privacy of Millions
In Wisconsin, Senate Bill 130 proposes that sites use “reasonable age verification methods” and requires the publishers and distributors of “material harmful to minors” to prevent access from known VPN IP addresses. Under the bill, entities in violation of the law would be subject to civil penalties. In Michigan, House Bill 4938 takes it a step further and proposes an all-out ban on VPNs entirely. The lawmakers in support of the bill, called the Anticorruption of Public Morals Act, want internet service providers in the state to “actively monitor and block known circumvention tools.” The bill prohibits “the promotion or sale of circumvention tools to access prohibited material.” Violators would be subject to civil and criminal penalties of up to 25 years in prison and fines of up to $500,000 under the proposed legislation.

The immigration debate in Quebec explained
The immigration debate regularly makes headlines in Quebec. The Parti Québécois, which leads the polls, has made immigration one of its main campaign issues. They promise to reduce immigration to relieve pressure on public services, tackle the housing crisis, and slow the decline of the French language. The CAQ has historically made a lot of noise about this issue. But it now finds itself between a rock and a hard place, having presided over a significant increase in immigration despite its promise to “take in fewer but take care of them.” Even the Quebec Liberal Party claims that Quebec’s “integration capacity” has been exceeded. What should be the communist position on this issue?

The Second Sex by Simone de Beauvoir: Conclusion
‘NO, WOMAN is not our brother; through indolence and deceit we have made of her a being apart, unknown, having no weapon other than her sex, which not only means constant warfare but unfair warfare – adoring or hating, but never a straight friend, a being in a legion with esprit de corps and freemasonry – the defiant gestures of the eternal little slave.’
Many men would still subscribe to these words of Laforgue; many think that there will always be ‘strife and dispute’, as Montaigne put it, and that fraternity will never be possible. The fact is that today neither men nor women are satisfied with each other. But the question is to know whether there is an original curse that condemns them to rend each other or whether the conflicts in which they are opposed merely mark a transitional moment in human history. Legends notwithstanding, no physiological destiny imposes an eternal hostility upon Male and Female as such; even the famous praying mantis devours her male only for want of other food and for the good of the species: it is to this, the specPost too long.

Ex-MP Ivor Caplin out on bail — journalist who exposed him on trial

Retired Brighton-based journalist Greg Hadfield is scheduled to face trial this month for exposing an obscene X post by right-wing former Labour MP Ivor Caplin, 67 — while Caplin has again been granted bail after being arrested in a paedophile sting operation.

Caplin is a notorious Israel supporter, former chair of the so-called ‘Jewish Labour Movement’ (JLM) revived in order to fight Jeremy Corbyn’s leadership of the Labour Party. The former Blair defence minister has again been given extension to his bail. He has still not been charged, despite allegedly going to meet (what he thought was) the child and planning to take him somewhere after online discussions about sex.

Despite the arrest, Caplin does not appear to have been suspended by the Labour Party. National ‘mainstream’ media appear to have ignored it, with the right-wing Jewish Chronicle even deleting the report on his arrest that it initially published.

Hadfield, a retired news editor of the Sunday Times, who has written extensively on his personal website about the ‘Labour antisemitism’ scam in which JLM played a leading role, is facing a charge of an offence: “sending by public communication network offensive/indecent/obscene/menacing message/matter” under Section 127 of the Communications Act 2003 for posting a screenshot on X last year showing an example of the explicit gay pornography with which Caplin peppered his (since-deleted) X account alongside posts supporting right-wing Labour.

In the post accompanying the screenshot, Hadfield said that he was sure that another local right-winger “has known about @ivorcaplin’s ‘likes’ – and likes – for a very long time. Why didn’t she say something?” X would usually blur out explicit images unless a user has set to bypass the censorship. He was then interviewed under caution about a complaint from the other right-winger that his post was harassing her. After the CPS formally charged him, he applied for the court case to be halted but was denied. The case will be heard at Brighton Magistrates’ Court on 17-18 November and Hadfield’s donation page for his legal costs is still open.

Caplin is not the only such scandal among the pro-Israel Labour right. In 2023, Hackney right-winger Thomas Dewey was sentenced to just 150 hours community service despite admitting possessing pictures of child rape including tPost too long. Click here to view the full text.
