I don't put certain things like dishes that contacted raw eggs in the dishwasher so that won't happen. I'm still learning what the optimal way to use a dishwasher is though. This smell has a name in Arabic, زنخة (zanakha).

Not exactly. That is the propaganda. The reality is that Zionism was and still is popular with antisemites, and Germany never denazified. Zionism is an antisemitic ideology that despises diaspora Jewry, victims of the Holocaust, and upholds violent colonial Zionism as Judaism's redemption and integration into whiteness. The antisemitic conceptions of diasporic Jewry vs white ubermensch are a prominent feature in the ideology. German Zionism doesn't signify any sort of real antifascism on the part of the country. It's a liberal regime that is prone to fascism as they all are.

What do you think that video shows? It does not show Palestinian fighters shooting civilians indiscriminately. It does show a scene of the aftermath of israeli fire on its own civilians' vehicles. It does not show Palestinian fighters doing anything outside of their legal rights.

This is incorrect. The Palestinian fighters refrained from attacking Israeli civilians when they were able to. In many cases they did not do any harm to the Israeli civilians they interacted with and we're in fact courteous towards them. They targeted military and police instead. A currently unknown portion of the deaths of israeli civilians on 7/10 was from Israeli fire. Witnesses and available evidence indicate that Israeli infantry, tanks, and helicopters fired indiscriminately at civilians, militants, and homes with occupants. Israel refuses to investigate its forces' acts on 7/10 and destroyed and buried evidence (bombed cars).

The west bank and gaza have been entirely controlled by Israel since 1967, even though they came under civic management of the Palestinian authority in 1994. Since Israel controls all of gaza's borders, air space, sea access, communication infrastructure, power generation, water access, food access, currency, and citizen registry, it is by definition occupied by Israel even though Israel previously withdrew its on the ground presence in the strip. All those things are controlled by Israel in the west bank as well. Palestinians of the west bank and gaza of course do not have any of the rights of an Israeli citizen, but also have absolutely no sovereignty over the land they live in.

That article is a masterclass in laundering false information to make propaganda palatable to impressionable people. From the very first paragraph it regurgitates false information. The funny thing is that the claim that more than one million Uyghers are interned does have a source, but they didn't specify it. Probably because the source's reliability has been dismantled and they think leaving it out is less blatant. Garbage journalistic standards either way, and obvious dishonest propagandizing. For the rest of the article, we already know the media spread misinformation about Xinjiang. Compiling it in a Wikipedia article does not make it any more legitimate or convincing.

General organized strike. But you have to be organized first.

I wish trump was going to aid the dissolution of the west lol. You're giving him too much credit. In actuality the only thing he would do differently is dominate the US's allies slightly more and spread slightly more racist rhetoric. Considering the US empire will commit genocide in either case nothing justifies legitimizing it by participating.

99% Hitler vs 100% Hitler I can't believe I'm having to make this choice

We have in fact seen absolutely no evidence that China is committing genocide in Xinjiang. None.
