@Lazarou Either way that whole "#FreedomFlotillia" shitshow is just absurd.

TLDR: Someone decided to do "#SomeRandomShit!" and I #rant about that:

  • None of these attempts ever succeeded for very obvious reasons.

  • The amount of aid they had was negligible.

  • None of them thought beyond entering the restricted waters.

  • If they wanted to just get arrested for trespassing a military area, the could've just flown to Israel and trespassed on any army or navy installation. Would've gotten them the same effect for much cheaper.

  • If they wanted to launch aid, they could've just mortar'd it across the border from Egypt: Would've more likely gotten something over there rather than none.

I don't deny the situation in #Gaza - far from it, but if anyone things they can just sail in there and not expect to get boarded, then they are criminally stupid.

  • That's even less likely to succeed than trying to free GITMO inmates, cuz there is at least a right-of-passage waterway going through Guantanamo Bay...

They would've succeeded with a #Narcosub, but that would've failed the "#optics" and those are "Doing some Random Shit to pretend being noble!"

  • Seriously, this is as stupid as paintballing cop cars and then complaining why one gets arrested.

Doesn't mean I think the sea blockade is absurd and inhumane, but given the fact #Hamas rules Gaza like a #NarcoState and literally ripped apart plastic drinking water pipes just to build rockets, it's obvious they are crafty.

Obviously there's no incentive nor penalty existing to force a peaceful ending. And #Hamas are obviously making good profit rentseeking the population. That's why the leadership is propably chilling in a heated wirlpool in an air-conditioned apartment in Doha. The only reason those are breathing is because Netanyahu wants and needs them as "#ControlledOpposition"...

At least AFAICT this time the "FreedomFlotilla" aka. one dingy boat [ #Madleen ] with some weirdos on board had the wisdom to obey the orders when it was obvious the #ISC was about to board them to put on life jackets and sit on deck with their hands up.

  • A previous "flotilla" from #Turkey resulted in at least one dead cuz someone had the stupid idea to resist and faced some marine in full tactical drip that pulled the trigger.

Mass Mind Control: How Controlled Opposition Keeps You Trapped in the System

Hey #americans, worried about the #trump #autocracy? Fear not for the #democrats have your back! With this strong response to the #politicalpersecution of #mahmoudkhalil you know they’re a force to be reckoned with!

youtube.com/watch?v=-dm60GFIqW

No wait, it was utterly pathetic. Are you for fucking real? Way to make it clear they’re #controlledopposition and enjoy the old #fascism as much as #republicans.

The #usempire is falling.

@TonyStark @Makyris I.mean, #JillStein is a prime example of "#ControlledOpposition" as copypasted from #Russia:

  • Just enough competence to make useful idiots waste their votes but never a real threat to those in power!

@rrb #Honeypot would imply they actually put in some effort like #CryptoAG and #ANØM aka. #OperationIronside aka. #OperationTrøjanShield...

Rather I think #Zcash are #UsefulIdiots and #ControlledOpposition like #Signal...

@ralph @radicalpast Don't read The Jungle (1906) if you're an empathetic soul… seeing all the parallels, and realizing that means that right now there are people out there suffering what Jurgis and his family did, may break your heart.

Today's robber barons have no imagination; they're in many cases repeating what their great-grandaddies did to us.

@argv_minus_one @btanderson
More kids should do mock Congress in high school so they get a feel for the way political cliques really do business. The #FirstPastThePost political system forces the kind of political parties that actually keep a lid on extremist members since they know they have to do business in more than a one-cycle parliamentary alliance. When your voting block is pre-labelled for the voters you do a lot more necktie-grabbing in private & internal horse trading. Platforms that feed #ClosedSilo perception make the dangerous fringe think they don't have to caucus, which leads to them becoming loud decoys; #ControlledOpposition instead of what disappears with the next flush.

We're being forced offline on 8 Oct, some things have not sat right for us and must be aired.

We believe the way #climateJusticeSocial goes on about #climate while near totally neglecting all other #environmentalism makes it an #astroturf instance. We could be wrong but we actually believe the owner is false, possibly with ties to #corporateState for surveillance rather than resistance.

They began treating us with clear neglect. No reason. We concluded #controlledOpposition shortly after.

@kevinrothrock We'd be naive not to consider the possibility that this is a sort of good cop/bad cop thing. Else why is it tolerated? #ControlledOpposition

CNN is #BlueMAGA so I'm not really surprised that they're still platforming the face of #RedMAGA #ControlledOpposition

@ecosurrealism

What we are saying is CloudFlare, as a USA-based #dotcon that is supposedly helping to combat #cyberattacks, but has in fact been serving somes sites that pirate content. Why might that be?

These websites are often designed to look like Russian websites but would a real Russian really allow their website to be mass surveilled by the worst USA MITM Attack (CloudFlare) the world has seen? We doubt it.

See #astroturf, #frontGroup or #controlledOpposition for more.
