Don't you have a flag to wave over a razed hospital somewhere?
The attack was claimed by ISIS-K - a foreign fighter offshoot/offbrand. Funny thing is that ISIS-K fighters were getting lifts from American chanook helicopters in Afghanistan and is largely made up of US assets and/or people formerly trained by the US in Afghanistan.
Lots points to it being a CIA asset, tldr. They're a dirty army that can be used to keep an area distabilised or prevent other geopolitical powers from building infrastructure/influence (the nutshell purpose of ISIS-K, particularly in Afghanistan to prevent pipelines being built).
They had the inside scoop on an attack outside any usual operating theatre by a group with tangible links to US cooperation/orientation? No kidding.
Big ups to Jonno. Only person I've ever actually seen engaging in the community and he's been amongst it for years.
Only if your metrics are completely broken. This is just plain old fashioned transphobia and culture war copium - nothing straight about it.
Dude - I'm really sorry, an escape hatch for the rich people who can pay to be onboard isn't a solution. We've been living unsustainably - this, by definition, can't be sustained. We need to change now so we can make that change as comfortable and human as possible; otherwise we're going to be stuck reactively responding to each successive disaster, or crop failure, or ecosystem collapse, or climate migration wave etc.
We need to get ahead, now.
To be fair to them, fascists do this too
I mean, I took that as the text, you know? Like, the only people who care about being seen as neurotypical are the people who think neurodivergents are lesser - everyone else just vibes.
I see where your read of it is coming from, for sure - idunno, I guess I just get the impression most people here seem pretty wise to diversity and all that jazz.
Can always count on Jono.
Good read - hope to see policy change in this regard.
Feels more like a Chekhovs gun than a red herring at the moment but I hear what you're saying.
I think we just witnessed the birth of its use! It vibes like something that's chuggy but has a kind of abstract phlegmy quality to it.
Who knows - I should be sleeping!

There it is. The thinly veiled Islamophobia.
