I hate how many Arabs are celebrating what's happening in Syria, and I'm not even talking about just Moroccans. This makes it hard to not want to just give up on them. It's like they haven't got a single clue, they just gobble up everything they're being told by media just like before. The Arabs are so weak that a completely different culture in Iran are spearheading their own resistance.

I have a socialist classmate who believes that money doesn't give you power, but ideology does. When I talked about capital he said that capital doesn't equal power either, and that capitalists power can't be just because of capital. He also said another time that HTS didn't win because of capitalist reasons but because of their islamic ideology. I disagree with him, and you?

He's kinda a debate bro type of socialist btw, who doesn't go to demonstrations or is part of a party.

hey please say what are your thoughts on this article on syria?

I am sick again. I feel like getting a job in which I see hundreds of people each week has not been great for my immune system. Bird watching while getting wind blasted yesterday probably didn't help either.

Anyway, I will join the general strike this friday against the new plans of our new regime. It's my first ever general strike so curious to see what it is like. I have joined smaller strikes at picket lines of specific companies to talk to the workers for our party but that's on a much smaller scale.

Thanks to /u/[email protected] for this week's picture.

This is definitely one of those weeks where years happened..

So you mean to tell me that a dude that has planned a hit for days in advance managed to get caught in a McDonalds because an employee 'recognized' him while still carrying all the stuff of the murder?

It would be extremely Funny if the New Syrian Government Have their first election, and the results are Majority Pro-Assad

— 🇮🇷 🇮🇷 🇸🇾 Deputy Commander-in-Chief of the IRGC 'Khatam al-Anbiyaa' Headquarters: 'Bashar al-Assad did not request Iranian help – in fact he actively prevented us from coming and helping'

General Mohammad Jafar Asadi, deputy commander of Khatam al-Anbiyaa HQ:

– Bashar al-Assad said to one of our (Iranian) officials in a meeting: 'My soldiers have truly become either smugglers or thieves, they only defend those who offer them bribes and privileges. They could not defend me, and when I wanted to protect at least Damascus, I realized that they were not able to protect Damascus either.'

– Bashar al-Assad did not allow us (the IRGC) to go help the Syrian Arab Army, although he asked us for assistance in the past, but this time he not only did not ask, but he was worried about us arriving, and said that 'if you come, Israel will probably attack us'.

– Turkey is a part of NATO, and we should not see or accept the presence of this country and its influence anywhere outside of America and Europe. Turkey is a part of them, and with this attitude, it serves America. America is active behind the scenes.

– It seems that the factions present in Syria will clash with each other based on their own different interests. Maybe separating Syria is Turkey's desire, because they have been coveting a part of Syria for a long time.

I hope you all have a nice week :D

Remember, Lion of Damascus will return one day, he is alive and well in Moscow unlike Gaddafi, the only question is when! 🇸🇾

So there's a lot of videos on telegram of HTS executing people they don't like...

Tonight I received a fortune that says, 'YOUR SENSE OF HUMOR IS A JOY TO ALL.'

any thoughts?

Arcane season 2 is so shit. I'm on S2E4 and unlikely to watch another minute. The only clear message so far is

If anyone can enlighten me as to how they went from S1-writing to S2-writing, I'd love to hear it. 1/10 would not recommend.

EDIT: I saw @[email protected] already answered my question elsewhere: https://redsails.org/the-swerve/

The more I read about Soviet politics under Khrushchev and beyond, the more I see how cringeworthy and cancerous it was.
