  1. Horrifying prompt for whatever AI art generating function is popular nowadays.
  2. It is good! Great little single with 3 gorgeous tracks. Lush, glitchy, goodness.
  3. Yeah I’m only on episode 14 or something and they’ve already basically exhausted all the tropes. I actually laughed at the Japanese guy holding a fucking sword in the middle of the street in Tokyo.
  4. First two listens: So far Ectopia Removing Infinities has been by instant hit. Massive dubby track with lush bass. Although that lush bass is pretty ever present throughout. A ton of detail I'm sure I'm missing but liking this a lot. 2023 is turning into a pretty good year for music.
  5. Started watching The Blacklist with James Spader. Perfect brain pablum for when you don't want to think. Crank suspension of disbelief up to 11 to enjoy properly.
  6. A little gimmicky but I think he's just having fun and promoting Bandcamp Fridays. I paid him a couple of euros for a beautiful little single.
  7. Didn't even realize this was out. Will save it for the train to Tokyo tomorrow morning, am excited - first one was fantastic!
  8. LOL the goods that america is producing.
  9. Such a shame this is on RT because it will get discredited, but Finkelstein spot on. I love when people try and call him out for disliking Jews. I will always share this video:
  10. https://oval.bandcamp.com/album/now-never-whenever-vol-1 Markus Popp has created a gorgeously lush soundscape on this initial release. Limited for 24 hours on Bandcamp Friday, and it comes with name your own price. First in a series - if it's all as good as this first volume, we're in for a treat! Go get it quick!
  11. This is why I only like and retweet japanese noise shows and woodworking videos.
  12. It's the truth, not any sort of revisionism. Yeah I'm not discounting any of that - and there have been calls to divest from Israel, although nowhere near as strident as with South Africa. To be honest, I don't think any sort of two-state solution can work, because of the religious aspect. Like it's all well and good to look at it from a rational point of view - hey we should all work together to make the world a better place, and when we disagree on points, let's talk it out like rational people. But religious adherents are inherently irrational (see the joke about hearing voices but not getting sent to psychiatric counseling), and you (not you personally iggy) cannot rationalize that belief system away.
  13. I want to be clear that I am not excusing or justifying colonialism. THe proximal cause of the issue is religion, and until you remove that, there will be no peace. Simply removing the US/Western Europe from the equation will not solve the issue. That would be rational, but we are dealing with fundamentally irrational actors.
  14. No religious maximalism, no colonialism (in this particular situation).
  15. Lol wars have been fought over religion for millennia man, long before the US was even a country. Hamas is clearly driven by religious ideology (link below) and I've already posted links describing the desire for the creation of a Jewish state by Zionists, who use the US as a means to an end. https://www.scribd.com/document/371883283/Hamas-A-Historical-and-Political-Background Without the religion, none of this happens. The backing of Palestine by foreign states has been well documented, and the Nakba you mentioned was a direct result of the 1948 Arab-Israel war. THe 1948 war was a continuation of revolts by both Arabs and Jews in Palestine that occurred in the 1930s. What Israel is doing now is obviously a violation of human rights and a war crime, but to make a comparison to another apartheid, the end of apartheid in South Africa was the result of negotiations, not violent protest.
  16. What is not getting through to you? I have never disagreed with that. I am establishing the root cause, which clearly (if you look at any of the links I posted) extends far into the past before the Balfour Declaration. Which is a direct result of Zionism, which is of course one of the death cults I'm referring to. Thank you for agreeing with me.
  17. Sure, but none of that manipulation or division is possible without the religious element. And the religious element has been a part of it for a long long time, but in modern times has been exacerbated by the Zionist movement on one side and Arab Nationalism/Islamism on the other side. Yes the League of Nations supported the creation of the modern Israeli state, but the idea was mooted by Zionists, with genesis back in the 19th century. On the other hand, the ideology of global jihad is certainly one that needs to be considered.
  18. 1) I don't disagree with the well-established fact that Israel has been crushing Palestine for decades. As I said, one can understand the Hamas tactics without condoning them. I'm simply saying that the root cause of all this is fucking millennia old bullshit. 2) What do you mean?
  19. Both Hamas and Netanyahu are guided in their claims to land by religious scripture. Both sides are backed by far larger state entities, the means of their approach (seeking backing from whoever) does not justify the ends (a holy land). War has been fought for religious reasons for fucking millennia and the human race's inability to get past these interpretations of texts by ancient power-seekers hasn't changed (the apostles would be all over social media today), and never forget that for both Hamas and the Zionist, their end goal is a holy land controlled by them. Hamas Charter: https://irp.fas.org/world/para/docs/880818a.htm Netanyahu's ideological underpinnings: https://www.vox.com/2015/3/16/8220035/what-does-netanyahu-think One can understand why Hamas chose the route they did without condoning their actions. One can also say that Israel is certainly violating human rights without condemning Jews as a whole. One can also see that the root of all this on both sides is religious maximalism, blinding one side to the other's right to exist and practice in peace.
  20. When you've lost Piers Morgan: https://x.com/piersmorgan/status/1719457245228925425?s=20 https://x.com/piersmorgan/status/1719457245228925425?s=20
  21. Fucking bullshit medieval death cult vs fucking bullshit archaic death cult that both worship the same fucking stupid voice in the sky but interpret the words slightly differently going to drag us into WW3.
  22. WeChat: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WeChat Fucking one app to rule them all. You can use it in the US if you want
  23. Fuck I should really check these subforums more often...:(
