I can accept that Robert Reich gets to be happy, but do I need to be constantly reminded?

The [he/him] doth protest too much, methinks. Nobody called you CIA, I'm sure you'd love to monologue about how special and rare high ranking feds are the way that Wyatt Reed and Seth Harp types do. You're special in your own way. So, presumably you guys have been doing class analysis of ISIS then, and discussing the similarities between the Free Syria movement and what's happened in Ukraine and Georgia? Rallying the professional classes and petit boug around the forces of imperialism with the backing of mercenaries and all that

Look, you can dress this up however you want, but the fact is that I am laughing at your oomph for visibly being a screenshotting Telegram doomer over Iran, and you are writing fanfiction about me doing what I'm calling out. Should we call it a day, or is there anything else you'd like to vent about?

Well in that case I would have to go with the anonymous internet anecdotes, because I love standpoint epistemology so much. That's definitely where I would want to be getting my impressions on geopolitical changeovers to US-backed rebels. My internet friend's uncle. Do you hear yourself?

That's such a broad, unsupported, vibes-based assertion that asking where you got it will only elicit another, but I have to ask. On the Assad thing, see, this is exactly what I'm talking about. Syria, which refused bilateral cooperation with numerous countries because Assad's pee paw told him that allowing foreign investment would sacrifice sovereignty, and was more keen to deal with Turkey, is now said to have been thrown under the bus - by the people who believed Jolani was an improvement over Assad a few weeks ago.

I'll try to do better, comrade. Just remember that some of us know how to follow the water upstream.

Mhm you don't remember anything a bit manufactured about that? A CNN reporter doing a fake prison break?

So setting aside your epic warstories about people not being as right online as you, do you deny that there is a strong tendency among online left posters to be pro-Syria regime change, downplay the issues with Jolani, reverse the dynamic of Zionism to make the USA a helpless puppet, and paint Iran as an inactive deadbeat father of the resistance? Because I know exactly what they're referring to already. It's certainly not doing "Marxist analysis", it's reposting Al Jazeera, MEE, and other sources which are funded by US NGOs or Qatar. Sometimes with a quick ancient history lesson to remind everyone how smart we all are, if you're lucky you get a cute analogy.

I'm sure Hezbollah is doing great with the collapse of Syrian supply lines.

Anyways, this is the best time to ignore the DSA Third Worldist-HTS Caucus. They are preoccupied treating this like a basketball match and falling for disinformation left and right. What could better prove my point than posting a Telegram screenshot?

It would explain how people are acting right now if they stopped paying attention right as True Promise II actually arrived and never saw it, since that's exactly when the Israel Wins Simulator shut off.

It seems nobody on Lemmy actually reads articles but me

Actual Bernie Sanders: "the protestors are giving Trump what he wants" 🤔🤔🤔

I already have a folder for this variety of news. 👀 Yeah, it needs containment, more to escape the focus applied by humanitarian orgs than freaking out. You do want to make sure you have an idea what you're looking for e.g. searching a particular country's name.
