worth noting that after the soviet coup of the communist government in afghanistan, there was a mass boycott of the olympics held in moscow
might have to do with terrain and proximity to the capital. last time i checked, the terrain in ukraine is mostly flat and devoid of all trees - making it ideal for tank movement

i guess you could follow the same process for lentils or even cut lentils into the rice soup for nutrition and stuff

for me i've always had alot of congee lol which is like a rice soup/porridge, soak/wash rice and then throw it into the freezer into ice cube trays (the freezing of the water absorbed rice will shatter the rice grain) then boil that frozen waterlogged rice cube into your favourite broth. or you can skip the freezing process and use the instant pot porridge setting.
not the most well read dude, but my understanding is that as there is more energy in the atmosphere, there will be more unstable weather patterns - and will lead to crop failures.
this will most likely hit the global south and nations that are less developed (exploited nations such as the global south) harder than the developed nations. people migrating because they can't live in the deadly heat, or not having enough food, or something about florida going underwater (iirc they won't insure houses in florida anymore because of global warming and rising sea temperatures.)
edit i don't think people will want to lay down and die from the inhospitable environment, they will probably move - i don't think looking at the death toll and saying "see there are less deaths from the climate therefore climate change is not significant" is a good form of analysis, it seems like a bit of a kneejerk reaction, that needs more inspection - like quality of life, crop failures, if you can go outside without heatstroke, these things are gradually ramped up on a scale
hi it's me who thought we got hacked lol, i remember loading up lemmygrad and the taglines covered like half of the entire top of the site spouting gibberish, didn't know we were trying out a new feature lol
surprised pro Palestinian officials in Palestine haven't run a counter propaganda posters with all their dead children, put a name date of birth, photo alive, photo of corpse. unsavoury yeah but serves the same purpose of the posters here, bait for people to tear down and for people to record to post online and project as lesser beings

Growing wealth inequality is not an accident, it is a logical consequence of capitalism. If profits (surplus value created by labor) is given to shareholders (capitalists), and the rich run the government and the media — what else can you expect?

alt text: woman asks man "a penny for your thoughts?" man says "sure." a penny is put in his palm. the man's eyes goes white, the backdrop darkens, his facial features display traits ominous features. the man says "Poverty is not caused by men and women getting married; it's not caused by machinery; it's not caused by "over-production"; it's not caused by drink or laziness; and it's not caused by "over-population".
It's caused by Private Monopoly. That is the present system. They have monopolized everything that it is possible to monopolize; they have got the whole earth, the minerals in the earth and the streams that water the earth. The only reason they have not monopolized the daylight and the air is that it is not possible to do it. If it were possible to construct huge gasometers and to draw together and compress within them the whole of the atmosphere, it would have been done long ago, and we should have been compelled to work for them in order to get money to buy air to breathe.
And if that seemingly impossible thing were accomplished tomorrow, you would see thousands of people dying for want of air - or of the money to buy it - even as now thousands are dying for want of the other necessities of life. You would see people going about gasping for breath, and telling each other that the likes of them could not expect to have air to breathe unless the had the money to pay for it. Most of you here, for instance, would think and say so. Even as you think at present that it's right for so few people to own the Earth, the Minerals and the Water, which are all just as necessary as is the air. In exactly the same spirit as you now say: "It's Their Land," "It's Their Water," "It's Their Coal," "It's Their Iron," so you would say "It's Their Air," "These are their gasometers, and what right have the likes of us to expect them to allow us to breathe for nothing?"
And even while he is doing this the air monopolist will be preaching sermons on the Brotherhood of Man; he will be dispensing advice on "Christian Duty" in the Sunday magazines; he will give utterance to numerous more or less moral maxims for the guidance of the young. And meantime, all around, people will be dying for want of some of the air that he will have bottled up in his gasometers. And when you are all dragging out a miserable existence, gasping for breath or dying for want of air, if one of your number suggests smashing a hole in the side of one of th gasometers, you will all fall upon him in the name of law and order, and after doing your best to tear him limb from limb, you'll drag him, covered with blood, in triumph to the nearest Police Station and deliver him up to "justice" in the hope of being given a few half-pounds of air for your trouble."
The woman takes the penny out of the the man's palm, the back drop lightens, the man's facial features return to normal.

alt text: FOR LAND: on the capitalist mass extinction TBA
As for the farmer, the industrial capitalist and the agricultural worker, they are no more bound to the land they exploit than are the employer and the worker in the factories to the cotton and wool they manufacture; they feel an attachment only for the price of their production, the monetary product.
