What part of their wont be another opportunity to vote for any party under a dictatorship is so hard to grasp?

Fearmongering is always used to keep the working class stuck voting for the duopoly; I am not nor do I support the duopoly.

Voting out of fear is much worse for our society.

Third parties are the long-term solution to building up the working-class grassroots movements.

The fearmongering every four years only works on those voting for the duopoly; it has been used for many decades, the quote being an example of the status quo continuing.

We must demand higher standards from our politicians, first by not voting out of fear and working toward creating a better future outside the duopoly.

Rewarding genocide should not be an option, so third parties are the only choice some of us have.

“Power concedes nothing without a demand. It never did and it never will. Find out just what any people will quietly submit to and you have found out the exact measure of injustice and wrong which will be imposed upon them, and these will continue till they are resisted with either words or blows, or with both. The limits of tyrants are prescribed by the endurance of those whom they oppress.” ― Frederick Douglass

The quote is calling out the duopoly though, not just one or the other.

People can vote or not vote if they want to; that is their right as well. Third parties are an option, though.

Fascism is already here, with our police state and technofeudalism. 

 

One year ago today Palestinian fighters led by Hamas launched an unprecedented military offensive out of the Gaza Strip.

The immediate goal was to inflict a shattering blow against Israel’s army bases and militarized settlements which have besieged Gaza’s inhabitants for decades – all of which are built on land that Palestinian families were expelled from in 1948.

The bigger goal was to shatter a status quo in which Israel, the United States and their accomplices believed they had effectively sidelined the Palestinian cause, and to bring that struggle for liberation back to the forefront of world attention.

 

“I shall not go to the polls. I have not registered. I believe that democracy has so far disappeared in the United States that no “two evils” exist. There is but one evil party with two names, and it will be elected despite all I can do or say.” – W.E.B. DuBois (1956)

I can only warn you not to say anything related to alt-right hate speech, such as claiming that Jews control foreign governments. It’s not allowed.

I did not bring that up; you did.

Even Israel is against a two-state solution and a one-state solution.

Israel's goal has always been to remove all natives from Palestinian land.

This conflict has been ongoing for many decades, while continuing to escalate, ceasefire, and negotiations should be the goal, but it seems WWIII might be closer to happening than negotiations happening again.

I disagree; foreign policy has a lot to do with our country and what happens in other countries as well. 

Zionism =/= Judaism

Many that are for censorship try to make it seem like it is, so continued support of genocide can continue, but we must not fall for their talking points. to make it seem like it is, so continued support of genocide can continue, but we must not fall for their talking points.

Many are supporting the duopoly's funding of genocide of the Palestinian people due to Zionism's hold on our government and politicians, per AIPAC.

As we learn and grow, exposing ourselves to diverse ideas that we do not agree with, our world view changes as well, unless we construct our own echo chambers by self-censoring ourselves.

Multiple U.S. broadband providers, including Verizon, AT&T, and Lumen Technologies, have been breached by a Chinese hacking group tracked as Salt Typhoon, the Wall Street Journal reports.

It is unclear when the intrusion occurred, but WSJ cites people familiar with the matter, saying that "for months or longer, the hackers might have held access to network infrastructure used to cooperate with lawful U.S. requests for communications data."

According to the WSJ, the attack was discovered in recent weeks and is being investigated by the U.S. government and security experts in the private sector.

Salt Typhoon has been active since at least 2019 and is considered a sophisticated hacking group focusing on government entities and telecommunications companies typically in the Southeast Asia region.

Security researchers also found that the threat actor attacked hotels, engineering companies, and law firms in Brazil, Burkina Faso, South Africa, Canada, Israel, France, Guatemala, Lithuania, Saudi Arabia, Taiwan, Thailand, and the United Kingdom.

The hackers usually obtain initial access to the target network by exploiting vulnerabilities, such as the ProxyLogon vulnerabilities in Microsoft Exchange Server (CVE-2021-26855, CVE-2021-26857, CVE-2021-26858, and CVE-2021-27065).

In previous attacks attributed to Salt Typhoon/Ghost Emperor, the threat actor used a custom backdoor called SparrowDoor, customized versions of the Mimikatz tool for extracting authentication data, and a Windows kernel-mode rootkit Demodex.

Chinese APT hacking groups have been increasingly targeting U.S. and European networking devices and ISPs in cyberespionage attacks.

In August, cybersecurity researchers at Lumen's Black Lotus Labs disclosed that the Chinese threat actors known as "Volt Typhoon" exploited a zero-day flaw in Versa Director to steal credentials and breach corporate networks. During these attacks, the threat actors breached multiple ISPs and MSPs in the U.S. and India, which is not believed to be related to the recent breaches.

In September, Black Lotus Labs and law enforcement disrupted a massive Chinese botnet named "Raptor Train" that compromised over 260,000 SOHO routers, IP cameras with malware. This botnet was used by the "Flax Typhoon" threat actors for DDoS attacks and as a proxy to launch stealthy attacks on other organizations.

While these attacks have been attributed to different Chinese hacking groups, they are believed to operate under the same umbrella, commonly sharing infrastructure and tools.

Using Keni Burke’s “Risin' to the Top” as a backdrop, Redman provides an instructional guide on how to tightly pack weed inside of a cigar wrap or joint to enhance how high the smoker gets. Red also talks about the type of people that probably shouldn’t have access to rolling the blunt. The song was ranked #13 on Complex’s list of The Best Songs About Weed.^[[1] https://genius.com/Redman-how-to-roll-a-blunt-lyrics#about]


Risin' to the Top (7" Version) · Keni Burke [03:43 | https://youtu.be/21kwgMDXIX0]

Released in 1982 from the Changes album, its chart position was 63. This song was sampled several times and is considered Burke’s signature song. It was also released on RCA Records. The song was a defining hit for Burke, his best selling song, and showcases his work outside of Five Stairsteps. It was produced by the same artist. Along with the track “Hang Tight,” the song was moderately successful, becoming a major hit for Burke, and it brought success to its parent album, being the album’s only hit single. “Risin' To The Top” had a very electronic feel, with drums over guitar, strings and keyboards, and it became Burke’s best known track.^[[2] https://genius.com/Keni-burke-risin-to-the-top-lyrics]

Ah, I do not try to seem that way on purpose.

I will continue to try to improve my communication skills while also sharing diverse information not seen on Lemmy.

Thank you for taking the time to explain your thoughts on the matter!

I am against the duopoly; just because we do not share the same views, it does not make me a troll.

There are many people out in the world that do not think like we do.

Your labels may be an easy way to dismiss people that do not think like you want them to, but I think using our critical thinking muscles and having a dialogue would be much healthier for our society.

 

Dedicated to dialogue and peace!

At Dialogue works, we believe there’s nothing more unstoppable than when people come together.

British rapper Lowkey’s music has been entwined with activism since he first picked up a mic, and true to form, he joins Piers Morgan Uncensored with political fire in his belly. Openly anti-Zionist and pro-Palestine, Lowkey lays the blame for the ongoing conflict in the Middle East squarely at the feet of Israel.

Piers Morgan counters, saying that both Hamas and Hezbollah are fully committed to the destruction of the Jewish state, and their attacks would inevitably draw an IDF response.

Piers then brings in Lebanese-American terror commentator Brigitte Gabriel, who claims that Israel had always wanted peace, and withdrew from Gaza in 2005. Lowkey is shocked by her statement that "Palestinians have brought this on themselves", and directly accuses her organisation ACT for America of accepting funding from organisations that invest in illegal settlements in the West Bank.
