My guy do you struggle wirh reading comprehensive, he asked who funded the terrorists and extremism groups that came to power. Wanna know how iran became anti west when historically its the most liberal and urbanised muslim majority nation period. "bin Laden did. The guy was an egomaniac bedazzled by his own bullshit" what bullshit would that be? You must think you're so smart and know geo politics yet come here insulting others giving the most peewee American propaganda bs. So you're conclusion "world is more complex than America doing all bad, but at same time Osama waa bloodyminded religious zealotry"

Ask iran and iraq what happend to their Democratically elected leaders. Oh yeah, the west are massive gaslighters and couped many Democraticlly elected leader over fears of "communism" aka new age colonialism style resource extraction. The militants aren't the cause their the symptom.

You have to be actively braindead or bigoted to genuinely believe in hobbsian ideas.

Yeah but the next morning Is often rough

Shit, I clearly joined the wrong fediverse. I'd rather be called a tankie then be in the same boat as zionists. Tho tbh I search all of the fedverse and pro israeli genocidal content isn't too prevalent while reddit is genuinely taken over by zionists and American/European evangelicals

Sorry if this is a dumb question, but will this app also be available on android, ios or stay as a website link?

I've been on the Internet for decades and got my first bans after October 2023 trying to fight back against the insane islamaphobia and western chauvinism of the entire world (shitting in China, any Islamic nation, Russia etc when the west is morally as bad if not worse) I'm not even a Muslim, I just have the benefit of seeing the humans behind the religion (for all people of all religions tho not all sects are religions are equal)

I agree, I just joined here from reddit, and would like see communities florish reminiscent to reddit but like you said, we need to move on from an old Ex and see how it goes

You make a very solid point. Externally, I fight for these people, I guess the whole gaza genocide is making me question everything. I stood by so many groups, and now when it was time for us, I saw hate marches in uk, death to arab chants in Amsterdam. But the world is slow, and i think peoples eyes are opening in new ways, not seen before. You're religious, background of ethcnictt doesn't matter, the real enemy Is the class conflict with the tiny miniscule amount of humans at the top

It's good in a way, because atleast people are passionate to be angry, else apathy can be worse

Crusader Kings, Europe universalis and imperator Rome. I know this is three games but it's the same general idea, as a history fan, this game scratches a very specific itch for me

There's also bannerlord/warband, amazing experience, sorta like ck3 on a micro level

I feel for you buddy, leave the big cities it isn't bad everywhere

There's absolutely no reason iran isn't our friend and Saudi Arabia (where literal wahabism is from which is a plague to the west but a bigger plague to the Muslims around the world with rich degenerate sheiks come over to tell us "authentic islam") buttt mosaddegh nationalised oil, and to west, it never mattered about morals, human rights. It was about who could extract the most native resources and give to some white asshole nepo baby

Hobbs and even rosseu both had simplistic mindset on pre history humans that were incredible naiive and harmful towards ant progression of understanding. Hobbs believed in the savage brutish and short life of these people, while rosseu believed they were all loving, peaceful, and egalitarian. In reality, humans are humans, very smart, and complex social organisations haven't been with us well before the first villages or towns became a thing. I have an issue with both, but arguably, hobbs with so much worse, so much more racist and backwards too. The kinda guy if was alive today you'd want to beat up

I see what you're saying, I'm from a nation of 5 million in Europe so we get the benefit of great benefits, education and healthcare while our capital only having 500ish k people. In terms of cultures. Big cities will always have more fun stuff

The zionists here, too? I used reddit for over a decade and left because of how awful zionists barrage reddit into a propogandist cesspit. And yes screw anyone who makes lemmy a battleground like reddit

Okay I can get behind lemmonite, a bit more of a safer version of lemmite

My friend, how are you so knowledgeable, I'm an avid fan of history and geopolitics. Do did you learn from books, articles, papers or just alot of digging and curiosity?

Holy fucking shit, this had me howling

Again. You're not showing off you're capacity intelligence or critical thinking if you think 19 different men from various countries wirh a billionaire formerly cia asset Saudi billionaire leading them all for... Islam? I'm a former Muslim, so this is something I know alot of, but please dumb dumb, explain how they did it for "profession of their faith" Did the IRA bomb London because of their Catholic estremist ways too? My god, I could make a fake news site right now, populate it with bullshit, and of 8 billion people, i know you specifically would find my site and believe whatever crap people say online
