nobody said democrats love genocide. they tolerate it because it's good for business, and also because the state of Israel existing is required for the Christian End Times myth to function as planned. the end times can't officially start until Israel falls, according to the Book of Revelations. you should read it, it's a fascinating tale and definitely the work of someone high on mind altering substances.

of course, the Israel the Bible was talking about was actually destroyed something like two thousand years ago, but it's kind of like a religious five second rule. it doesn't count if you make a new Israel and send the Jews there so they aren't clogging up your nation, which is exactly what Britain and the US did at the end of WW2 with all the refugees that fled Germany.

    two more years of them working alongside Trump to pass his agenda. that was the issue they had, that they weren't being consulted. the establishment Dems are going to fight tooth and nail to maintain the status quo.

    if you had bothered to look up even the couple of examples moth provided, you would know they do need approval, and that approval has been denied on more than one occasion. in the case of Rwanda, the commanding officer pleaded to be given the resources to defend the civilians. he was denied for political reasons.

    but if your smug ignorance feels more comfortable to you, then by all means, continue. but moth isn't going to waste time arguing with someone simping for a powerless bureaucratic PR agency just because it's controlled by western liberal nations and that makes it above reproach to you. moth supposes your time would be better spent cracking open a history book.

    tell that to the people of Rwanda and Srebrenica, and that's just to start. they can protect civilians if it doesn't jeopardize the mandate they have. the problem with that is the UN security council has five members with veto power and a global interest in maintaining many conflicts for the purposes of imperialism. historically, there have been a lot of times when protecting civilians from being brutally murdered wasn't politically convenient.

    having the legal authority to intervene or even protect yourself doesn't mean shit if you don't have the ability or political power to do so. russia is a member of the security council with veto power. the security council oversees UN peacekeepers. the very people the peacekeepers would be protecting civilians from are the people who can veto their ability to protect civilians. which is why, if you carefully read that article, the official never once says they would be allowed to protect civilians, and specifically mentions that any engagements would be “defensive in nature”.

    the UN is a absolutely worthless organization when it comes to stopping powerful countries from doing terrible things. it has absolutely zero ability to protect the civilians in Ukraine from further russian imperialism or ethnic cleansing.

    the vibe coded part is is pretty unimportant. if it was just a vibe coded distro, it would be quickly forgotten by most Linux users except in memes, and the only people who would use it are the AI tech bro influencers and their vapid followers.

    the real issue here is the insane amounts of money many corporations are giving someone who consistently voices racist theories on his blog.

    everybody was saying Fuck Proton the other day, when really it's Andy that needs to go. the vast majority of the employees are not obsessed with AI like he is, and aren't abusive assholes like he is either.
