The war started because ukraine could be allowed into nato. That's not a way to de-escalate. These kinds of articles are so incoherent.
They might lose the election over this, or the American electorate might continue its unbroken streak of not letting foreign policy impact the election unless it directly affects them (see the draft for Vietnam)
The frightening thing is that it may work

as a real response to the article, no shit. that $60b aid package included a bunch of actual gear but also a huge amount of it was US congress printing funbux vouchers that could be used to order new weapon systems for later delivery
In the Ukraine bill, of the $60.7bn, a total of about $23bn would be used by the US to replenish its military stockpiles, opening the door to future US military transfers to Ukraine. Another $14bn would go to the Ukraine Security Assistance Initiative, in which the Pentagon buys advanced new weapon systems for the Ukrainian military directly from US defense contractors.
There is also more than $11bn to fund current US military operations in the region, enhancing the capabilities of the Ukrainian military and fostering intelligence collaboration between Kyiv and Washington, and about $8bn in non-military assistance, such as helping Ukraine’s government continue basic operations, including the payment of salaries and pensions.
The $23b tranche is for replenishing military stockpiles, meaning that $ is for the US government to buy new shit from defence contractors, put it in the stockpile pile, and then potentially draw on it via 'presidential drawdown authority', which is the primary mechanism that the US has used to send materiel to ukraine.

I think the only way the left can truly combat leftist meme syndrome is by branding it ableism against people who have less than perfect vision

just take a break for now instead of stopping agitation altogether. when you pick back up again, try convincing different people or using different means. libs are maximally libbed up right now because of the US presidential election but that won't last. this time next week there will be more fertile ground, one way or the other. take heart comrade
To be among the masses and fail to conduct propaganda and agitation or speak at meetings or conduct investigations and inquiries among them, and instead to be indifferent to them and show no concern for their well-being, forgetting that one is a Communist and behaving as if one were an ordinary non-Communist. This is a seventh type.
The latest radio war nerd episode talks about AWOL in the AFU and the various exemption bribe systems. The guest estimated that it was more like 200k mobilized people that have refused to fight and bailed.
450k us troops across the entire Pacific. That is less than Russia has operating in ukraine right now. If the US wants to go to war with China they're going to need to restart the draft to get the 1m plus soldiers needed
the west has fallen

this article is from before Oct 7 but is nevertheless a powerful article about antisemitism vs antizionism by a Palestinian writer. I'm sure this has been posted before
https://mondoweiss.net/2023/09/jewish-settlers-stole-my-house-its-not-my-fault-theyre-jewish/
Here is where I stand. There is a Jew who lives–by force—in half of my home in Jerusalem, and he does so by “divine decree.” Many others reside—by force—in Palestinian houses, while their owners linger in refugee camps. It isn’t my fault that they are Jewish. I have zero interest in memorizing or apologizing for centuries-old tropes created by Europeans, or in giving semantics more heft than they warrant, chiefly when millions of us confront real, tangible oppression, living behind cement walls, or under siege, or in exile, and living with woes too expansive to summarize. I’m tired of the impulse to preemptively distance myself from something of which I am not guilty, and particularly tired of the assumption that I’m inherently bigoted. I’m tired of the pearl-clutching pretense that should such animosity exist, its existence would be inexplicable and rootless. Most of all, I’m tired of the false equivalence between semantic violence and systemic violence.
article on the uyghur think tank-industrial complex and its relationship to zionism/lack of support for palestine
https://www.firstpost.com/opinion/why-uyghur-groups-have-contradictory-stances-on-israel-hamas-war-13813376.html
However, there is an Islamic organisation that stands in solidarity with Israel, overlooking the history of Palestinian suffering and openly supporting Israel, the World Uyghur Congress (WUC), based in Germany’s Munich city. The WUC stated on October 9, 2023, condemning Operation Al-Aqsa Typhoon as a “terrorist attack”, just a couple of days after Hamas’s surprise attack on Israel. Omer Kanat, Chairman of the Executive Committee of the WUC and Executive Director of the Uyghur Human Rights Project (UHRP), went one step ahead and publicly condemned Hamas’s actions and expressed solidarity with the victims of the attacks.
Similarly, the Uyghur Rights Advocacy Project (URAP), a Canada-based Uyghur rights group, issued a statement condemning “the barbaric attacks by Hamas terrorists on innocent Israelis.” Additionally, the “Campaign for Uyghurs”, affiliated with the WUC, while expressing solidarity with the victims of the attacks, stated that the organisation stands with the Jewish state.
However, in response to the humanitarian disaster caused by Israel’s military operations in Gaza, no Uyghur organisation has so far condemned the actions as genocide. The fact mentioned above contradicts the widespread assertion of Chinese action against Uyghurs in Xinjiang as genocide.
