“They did not just read Ibn Taymiyya. They didn't just read Sayyid Qutb. They didn't just read Hassan al-Banna. They read Lenin, they read Jean-Paul Sartre, they read Fyodor Dostoevsky. They read everything that they could come across as they tried to figure out the future and the way forward and out of that Palestinian impasse."

From what i can find, this person posts on Ancap, lives in San Fransisco, and is a senior software engineer. Also got scammed by an obvious mlm scheme. Into the barbara-pit he goes.

There's a Chapo bit from a long time ago where they put it down to chuds getting too angry before the punchline. Like, the set up of the joke will be bog standard, but then they'll pivot to whatever culture war bullshit is occupying their mind at the moment.

I don't know why, but i keep having conversations with people that turn to the ukraine conflict. I guess it's because i have a reputation for knowing what's going on around the world (largely thanks to you beautiful folks lea-finger-guns). But it's incredible the amount of ignorance people have about history, geography, and political realities. I guess i can't blame them, as they likely have other, more serious concerns than reading a dozen books or staring at an rss feed, but man, i love the news crew. You guys keep me informed and on top of things, and the more i read, the more i feel i can give opinions on things.

Also, i ran into an actual nafo guy at work, and when he brought up the ukraine conflict, i didn't want to stay and debate him, so i just told him that Galicia belongs to the poles and left.
