Nooo, dont fight the class war. Dont you know that the culture war is far more important. You need to spend all your time and energy fighting over the green M&M.

I don't think they've really changed, they still get their hands dirty and work to overthrow any leaders that might not be super open to US exploitation.

[–] dessalines@lemmy.ml 19 points 3 days ago

They seem to be go-fund-me'ing their coup attempts nowadays.

The only places the US is still having success is in the ME. They even lost their own hemisphere, they can't even prevent leftists from getting elected in Mexico anymore.

Did they think Fidel drank pen ink

[–] optissima@lemmy.ml 25 points 3 days ago (2 children)

Their internal polling indicated 100% of people drink pen ink ¯\(ツ)

I feel like I'm missing context

[–] sunzu2@thebrainbin.org 23 points 3 days ago

Before: cia was doing real work like overthrowing regimes that owners get an ick from

Now: they have to be in here with us justify Israeli genocide while getting abused by the shit posters.

[–] agamemnonymous@sh.itjust.works 10 points 3 days ago

Assuming there's not some new thing:

The recent US general election was, as usual, a face-off between the two predominant parties. The incumbent party, while nominally being the relative "left" party, continued the unbroken support the US has provided to Israel since its conception, despite recent genocidal activity. There are some who insisted that, while that support is reprehensible and isn't representative of the will of the left, the alternative party would be just as bad for Palestine while also being worse by most other metrics (including LGBTQ+ rights).

There are some who suggest that those insisting such a thing are shills or intelligence agents, logging into niche leftist spaces to manufacture tepid consent, rather than individuals expressing genuine concerns.

[–] GoodEye8@lemm.ee 14 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Some people on the internet are saying it's okay to not support Palestine because they're not pro LGBTQ enough.

It's an insane argument to make so I guess that's why OP feels like it's CIA.

[–] naught101@lemmy.world 8 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Those are some wild lines of reasoning, on both sides.

[–] sunzu2@thebrainbin.org 6 points 3 days ago (1 children)

It is a dilatory tactic to split the conversation and turn into left right circle jerk or anything really as long as the plebs don't talk about Israeli genocide and war crimes.

This tactic is used for anything that owner or any sovereign doesn't like.

It works too.

Luigi and Gencoide are two exceptions where they could not turn public opinion. So thre do appear to be some limits to gen pop larping talking points they been fed by the media/influcer/politicians whores.

[–] HawlSera@lemm.ee 5 points 3 days ago (1 children)

That's why they want to end internet privacy. Aint nobody gonna be posting their support for the based Gigachad we call Luigi if they lock you up just for typing the words

[–] sunzu2@thebrainbin.org 2 points 2 days ago

That's why they want to end internet privacy.

Well there is no privacy if spooks are out to get you. I think that's why they made up terrorist charges for Luigi, so now all the glowies can "help"

They could USSR repression route but that's hard to enforce if population as a whole won't larp teevee talking points as instructed.

They have a huge PR issue that no amount of censorship can fix. Going after that lady, was a over reaction and it showed how pathetic these parasites really are. Using the state like their person towel boys and the feds obligated, like a good little bitch.

Yeah, that was the "cia."

That meme with the muscular dog and crying dog

[–] JusticeForPorygon@lemmy.world -5 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago) (2 children)

Yes because the CIA definitely cares about LGBTQ rights

I get the joke but c'mon they definitely don't.

[–] sus@programming.dev 39 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago)

the point is not LGBT, the point is that it's used as a wedge issue vs palestine

The devil can cite scripture for his purpose
