Canadian immigration appears less evil to me but also a heck lot more incompetent and confusing to deal with

(I’ve actually never figured out how to get a work visa to Canada and I’ve figured it out for most countries. Like even the How to Apply page is.. vague. And I’m a native English speaker with international immigration experience. I think you’re supposed to use an agent, most of the time, but I refuse. Anyway, that’s not on the cards anymore and I would die in the cold)

The reality is, if you're actually consuming international and regional news, not US or US-friendly Pig Empire corporate media that is, is that we've more or less already lost this war. There are no real objectives the US can still obtain here. Trump is literally begging for a ceasefire so he can go home and Iran isn't interested. They intend us to leave the REGION, not just the waters off Iran, humiliated. They will not open the straight till we leave. Trump has already lost.
New word, Susie Dent: trumpstarmer, meaning to take the United out of America and our Kingdom.....

My name is Mohammed, a children’s teacher. I was never a beggar, and my life used to be good, but the war destroyed my home, my work, and everything I had.
I feel ashamed to be in a position where I must ask for help, and I hate finding myself here appearing as someone in need, especially when some comments mock or doubt my suffering.

I think that the imperialist Donald Trump wants negotiations with Iran:
The American army showed itself to be completely weak. Trump was unable to break Iran and called Russian President Vladimir Putin, apparently so that Putin could persuade the new leader of Iran to negotiate with the United States.
After all, after Putin’s conversation with Trump, Putin spoke with the new leader of Iran.
Bloody capitalist Trump has painted himself into a corner...

No, but the death rate tends to rise alarmingly in most eg the South African ones in the C19th

@inthehands I think even the bootlckers know they're concentration camps.The last time someone criticized me for describing the MAGA government as "Nazi" they very noticeably used the term "Death camp" instead when listing the things Nazis did that MAGA hasn't yet. They were, until Alligator Alcatraz was built., claiming the lack of concentration camps meant MAGA wasn't Nazi

I hope you guys won't wait until the stench of the smoke from the chimneys becomes too much - before you remove your Hitler.
