must there be a title

Democrats are so ready to rehabilitate capitalist war criminals, including the one that they detested in the 2000s. Watch them do this with Trump in 10 years.

More like 3-4 times that, but the point stands.

just a reminder for y’all

carter: the operation eagle claw debacle, responsible for severing ties with the soviets when they invaded afghanistan (and laying the groundwork for funding the mujaheddin), forcibly capped cuban refugee entry

clinton: bombed iraq three separate times, upheld the no-fly zones, ordered the bombing of yugoslavia, responsible for the disastrous intervention in somalia

bush: the american intervention in afghanistan, the toppling of the iraqi government, the entire blackwater war crimes scandal, GTMO, Abu Ghraib (don’t google that), blamed the israeli airstrikes in gaza on the palestinians

obama: responsible for toppling the libyan government, leading to actual fucking slave markets, gave the go-ahead for the saudi war crimes in yemen, ordered drone strikes on civilian targets also in yemen, hit syria with cruise missiles and funded jihadi forces in idlib, which by proxy ended up supporting Da’esh (ISIL)

Carter always gets "not like the other girls" treatment when he continued funding the Indonesian military dictatorship during the peak of the genocidal violence during occupation of Timor-Leste, which killed over a third of the indigenous population.

Friendly reminder that if the judgements of the Nuremburg Trials were enforced after WW2, every US president since FDR would be hanged as a war criminal.

Oh, incidentally: it has since come out that Obama greenlit the CIA to help destabilize the left-leaning government of Brazil and bring Bolsonaro to power. So when you read about the Amazon rainforests dying because Bolsonaro encouraged mining companies to set fires to clear land (and force the natives off)? That was Obama (and Biden).

[Image Description by @yourfriendthefangirl : Two tweets posted April 3-4, 2020. The first is by Michael @/MichaelSchweitz and reads, “Just a reminder. None of these men would have been okay with losing a quarter of a million Americans.” The tweet features a black and white photo of Jimmy Carter, Bill Clinton, Barack Obama, and George Bush, all wearing suits and ties and staring off to the right of the camera. The second tweet is a quote tweet of the first by Valentina @/LeftistThot420, who asks, “What about a quarter of a million Iraqis?” /End ID]

[Video: tik tok by user @x509o where someone's hand digs into a patch of orange sand, and flips the clump they've got a hold of, to reveal it's snow with a thin cover of sand. They do it several times and even crush the clumps to show it's really snow. The last clump is bigger than the others and they stand up while crushing it, so it scatters in the wind. The camera pans over a sandy landscape with some bald patches where the snow can be seen. /End description.]

a new law is about to be passed in Saudi Arabia that will allow the government to execute people for coming out or being openly gay online.

ignoring the fact that this is literally something out of some kind of dystopian novel, in the interests of safety i’ve emptied out my face tag and may temporarily deactivate or password protect this blog.

please reblog this and get the word out, and if you pray, please pray for me and my fellow Saudi LGBTQ+/MOGAI family.

ALSO, for those who need it [x]. its a post on erasing all traces of yourself from the interwebs. 

this is not something to read and keep to yourself. please spread this around. may Allah keep everyone safe.

Just a tuesday in Canada

Meanwhile, at Australia…

An uneventful day in Saudi Arabia:

oh my god what the fuck why is this so funny

All america got is squirrells

[gif descriptions: the tuesday in Canada is a view from inside a car at speed (with a Tim Hortons cup on the dash, it is Canada, of course) going down the road and slowly overtaking a running moose. As they pull up alongside, the moose slips on the ice and the clip cuts as it falls. Meanwhile in Australia, a view from a car at speed through a neighborhood looks out the side window to a kangaroo making good time through the underbrush alongside the road. It lands on a wet driveway and falls. And in the middle east, out the side window of a car at speed on the highway/motorway, a camel runs down the median, with a man sprinting after it.]
