More footage from the huge anti regime demonstrations by Iranians in Manchester
The mainstream media completely ignores this for some reason
We Iranians despise the terrorist Islamic republic regime and we will fight until the evil regime is no more

the most unserious part of the tourettes/bafta discourse might be the people saying "but how did he even KNOW that word???? why was it even in his vocabulary if he's not racist????" like girl i learned it from watching a civil rights documentary when i was 8, let's not be facile here. second most unserious are the ones saying shit like "well if EYE had tourettes my tic would be saying 'free palestine'"
so about all those lectures from Ireland about racism.........
Just in case you missed it, we had a big win yesterday.
"For much of the last two years, Mace has made McBride a frequent target, repeatedly invoking the Delaware Democratic congresswoman in speeches, interviews, social media posts, and legislative fights over transgender rights. Since McBride became the first out trans member of Congress in January 2025, Mace has emerged as one of the most visible anti-trans voices on Capitol Hill, championing efforts to restrict transgender people's access to bathrooms and other gendered facilities in federal buildings. Mace at one point even chased a woman she thought was McBride into a Capitol restroom, only to discover that it was a cisgender colleague.
But on Tuesday, it was McBride delivering the punchline.
"Today is a big day because today is the South Carolina Republican gubernatorial primary," McBride told the gala crowd. "And for those of you who aren't aware, my colleague and Congress's top bathroom sheriff, Nancy Mace, is on the ballot."
The audience laughed and applauded.
"And while not all of the votes have been counted yet, she is in a respectful fifth place," McBride continued. "I don't like punching down, and I believe in the politics of grace. So all I will say is happy Pride, Nancy."
The room at the Mellon Auditorium erupted with schadenfreude."
The Advocate was there and got video, and it's awesome.
TFW you backstab the head of the Latino Caucus and burn your bridges because you didn't vet your wacko candidate.
The fact that AOC is still very unenthusiastic on Platner and is coming at it from an "Anything to win the Senate" angle versus the straight-up gaslighting we're getting from some of the Senators, I think she knows something really bad is coming. Her complete lack of support for a Bernie candidate is probably one of the biggest red flags (aside from things Platner himself has said and done).
Chinese, Russian, and North Korean officials have surely taken note of Washington’s ability to capture Maduro, destroy many of Tehran’s nuclear systems, and kill Iran’s leadership. They are also aware that, unlike his predecessors, Trump is willing to use force against Iran and Venezuela. These facts will bolster deterrence. Although they may take comfort from the security provided by their nuclear arsenals, Chinese leader Xi Jinping, Russian President Vladimir Putin, and North Korean leader Kim Jong Un would rather not fight a war against the United States—particularly if it might personally endanger them or cost them their lives.
The weaknesses these conflicts have exposed include Washington’s dangerous munitions shortages. The war in Iran has also made clear the U.S. military’s dependence on allies and foreign bases. Most of all, the perception that the United States is willing to settle for far less than its stated war aims after a relatively brief campaign has raised questions about the United States’ focus and resolve.
More munitions will help address these challenges, in part by simply improving Washington’s capacity to fight protracted wars. But the Trump administration will also need to make sure the American military is more broadly structured to fight longer—and in more arenas. The United States’ main adversaries collaborate across the planet: China has made major economic and security investments in Africa and South America, the Ukrainians have found themselves fighting North Korean soldiers who have Iranian drones, and Russia has helped Tehran target U.S. forces. Washington therefore needs to maintain a global presence. American operations in Iran and continued support for Ukraine suggest that the White House recognizes that the United States is a global power with worldwide interests, despite its occasional statements to the contrary.
But to truly embrace its role as a global power, the United States needs to better collaborate with allies. Iran has made it particularly clear just how essential they are. American operations in the country would be nearly impossible without the help of Gulf Arab states, which are home to multiple U.S. bases, and Israel. NATO allies have helped Washington by providing basing, access, and overflight rights for American forces operating in the Middle East. Most poignantly, Ukraine is helping the United States learn how to defend against Iran’s drone bombardments. Yet most U.S. allies have been underinvesting in their militaries for years, despite pleas by multiple American presidents to increase their spending. Over the last year and a half, some allies have let domestic politics or their dislike for Trump overshadow their collective interest in weakening the Iranian regime and ensuring the free flow of oil through the Strait of Hormuz. They have, in turn, refused to help the United States with its campaign even though doing so would benefit them. In exchange, Washington should do a better job of getting its weapons into the hands of its partners so that they can successfully defend themselves.
The war in Iran—along with the capture of Maduro—has made plain what the U.S. military can and can’t accomplish right now, and what it must therefore do next. It has shown that Washington needs to get its allies to do more and that it needs to do more itself. This does not mean that the United States should emphasize quantity over quality; it will still pay dividends to be the most advanced military on the planet. But in an era of extended conflict, Washington and its allies need to be dominant in all domains and on all fronts. They must be ready to bring everything to bear everywhere, and all at once.
The American Military’s Coming Marathon: The Pentagon Needs Both Quantity and Quality to Win Modern Conflicts
The US could do a deal to buy some of Ukraine‘s state of the art drone tech that they’ve developed and exchange give them some of the weapons and money they need. It would be a win-win, especially since Ukraine is fighting Russia, which is an enemy of the United States, but Trump won’t do it because he works for Putin.
The report is likely to increase pressure on the Trump administration.
“A new State Department report accuses Iran, Russia and China of incorporating antisemitic narratives, threats and attacks into operations in both the physical and cyber domains.”
Wow. A lot of the antisemitism is being fueled by people falling for obvious Russian, Chinese, and Iranian propaganda designed to incite hatred, distract from their own misdeeds and destroy liberal democracy. Who could’ve called this other than literally anyone who had been paying attention?
if Russia and Iran’s regimes ever fall so many paid propagandists are probably gonna get exposed.
We need more and more shows with casual Judaism and Israelis. Let them "antizionists" have nothing.
We really do. And Israeli entertainment has to make less ultra depressing shows that just consist of "ultra depressing gritty story of creator self-insert badass womanising idf man kills terrorists family by mistake, now his everyone he loves is killed, cue endless violence and sadness" and more idk... casual fun shit or something
Westerners who made Gaza their entire personality for over two years because they “care about innocent civilians”: well it’s too bad Iranians are suffering under the regime, but that’s literally not our problem. also we hope we get to see Israeli civilians die in bombings! uwu
.
can we talk about the very specific and disgusting misogyny directed at Mia Schem? the whole time she was hostage and after she was released and still now ive seen people treat her with an extra amount of cruelty because of her appearance. i saw people saying things like "she's so ugly, there's no way they SA'd her" or that "she's just upset that she couldnt get lip filler" when she spoke about her trauma. ive seen people say that since she was assaulted after being released, it must mean "hamas is so much gentler and better than regular israelis" or that shes "making it up" because "victim complex". ive seen so much misogynistic language directed towards her, people calling her shallow, vapid, stupid, calling her a whore or a bitch, ive even seen people saying that hamas "should have fixed her" (implying they believed she should have been raped). how fucking depraved and disgusting do you have to be to speak about a human being like this? what has to go so wrong in your life to say this sort of thing about someone???
October 7th was a wake up call for me when I realized that the left genuinely did not give a single shit about Jews but it still baffles me the sheer amount of gaslighting and entitlement that they exude that they expect us to believe they aren’t the same as the Nazi pieces of shit who spout the same shit they do on the other side of the political spectrum just without the woke language. Defending or denying the terror attack committed on a synagogue in Michigan, calling the terror attack in Bondi a false flag, simping for a regime that systematically murdered tens of thousands of their own people in just two fucking days. And this is just the shit I’ve seen in the past few months. That’s not even talking about how they have reacted about how the hostages were treated because I will never be able to articulate the rage and betrayal I have felt these past 2.5 years.
And they still have the audacity to self righteously post on their blogs about how cool and leftist they are, about how they would punch a Nazi, about how it’s so important to believe women (unless you’re a Jew or Israeli). And as a liberal Jew, I just feel so much disgust and resentment towards the sheer entitlement of these people. They will spew the same vile rhetoric that groypers and their ilk have, just wrapped up in progressive speak. And their reaction to getting called out for it almost always “how DARE you call ME, a LEFTIST, an ANTISEMITE? Don’t you know that leftists by definition are the righteous saviors of the oppressed?!”
And deep down, I know these people hate Palestinians just as much as they hate Jews. Because instead of focusing on the very real human rights abuses going on in Gaza, they use Palestinian suffering as a bludgeoning tool against Jews - not just those within Israel but those in the diaspora. They vehemently defend and woobify the monsters who not only have stated time and time again that their goal is to genocide Jews, but violently oppress the people these leftists claim to support.
I hate these people more than I hate Nick Fuentes, Candace Owens, and their ilk. Because at least the groypers are honest about wanting us dead. These kinds of leftists will spout the same bullshit but then have the audacity to act all morally superior to our faces.
Ppl acting like criticism of antisemites who try to speak in the name of Islam or who happen to be Muslim or of Islamist terrorist orgs is Islamophobic are the ones who are Islamophobic. I am Jewish. A Muslim friend of mine is totally against these Islamist terror orgs (and his family actually had to flee his country bc of them) and against all this antisemitism and xenophobia towards Israelis. Because he is a decent and sane human being. He would never say Israel has no right to exist or that all Israelis should be boycotted (actually the other day to make me feel more comfortable he went out of his way to say In front of someone else how much he enjoyed an Israeli film) or that antisemitic violence is justified or that the Holocaust didn’t matter. There are many Muslims like him. In fact the terror org the Muslim brotherhood is banned in more Muslim majority countries than non Muslim majority countries. Acting like we should accept xenophobia or racism or antisemitism or religious intolerance because ‘that’s what Islam is’ is wrong and untrue and based on bigoted Islamophobic assumptions. Muslims are perfectly capable of being good and decent ppl like my friend and people who promote extremism or hate or violence should not be given a pass to use Islam as a shield (same for ppl who do that in the name of Christianity btw). Equating ppl like that with all of Islam is bigoted even when leftists mean it as a “compliment”.
I could not agree more. The racism of low expectations is so rancid.

"Leftist" activists really went barrelling from #MeToo to denying, justifying or outright celebrating an act of mass rape and sexual torture and then lionising a regime and its leaders whose security apparatus routinely use rape as punishment for women who don't shut up, put up and tow the line.
I've talked about this many times, but I just cannot get over how profoundly cruel and evil a betrayal this is of all survivors.
A lot of you "punch Nazis" crowd wouldn't have been wanting to punch Nazis in WWII. A lot of you would have been marching in the street advocating for neutrality, claiming that Hitler hadn't attacked you, so why attack him? If you live in countries that were conquered by or allied with the Nazis, you would have been advocating for that alliance. A lot of you Americans especially would have been the people only entering the war for revenge against Japan for Pearl Harbour, not out of any desire to fight Nazism, and certainly not Nazism on your own home front. Hell, some of you might have even been part of the many American Nazi factions on American soil. You don't actually want to punch Nazis. You don't even know what Nazis are. You just want to punch something, and will call anything and everything "Nazis" so you can justify punching.
