"Resistance is continually benefitting. Whatever you pay in resistance, if you don't reap it in your lifetime, you will get the results later." —the revolutionary, resisting martyr Basil Al-Araj

From the Resistance News Network. I don’t read Arabic, I’m not sure I understand the word “benefitting”, context clues tell me it’s just something that generally positive.

Fun fact: a lot of these articles actually are done for free or even the author pays the website/publisher. The telltale sign - as is the case here - is when the author works in a profession where they need to generate business (like investment managers) and especially when they have a book to sell. The author here almost certainly wrote this so he gets exposure as an “investment guru”.

The Zionist entity has lost hundreds of thousands of settlers since Oct 7, most of whom are never coming back. This is the worst thing that could possibly happen to Zionism outside of “from the the river to the sea” actually happening. Which is not off the table rn, btw.

You have to get inside the minds of the Zionists to understand why. For years, they have been obsessed with birth rates and attracting the right kinds of immigrants. There’s a reason why the Zionist entity treats losers from Brooklyn like a DI school treats a 5 star recruit. They’re basically “we’ll give you a house, a spouse, whatever you want just come here”.

So… why? The answer is that the Arab population of “israel” and in the occupied territories is growing faster than the Jewish population of Israel. The Zionists think - as racist fascists are wont to do - that if they are “outbred” then eventually they will be conquered.

They are obsessed with this. It’s the real reason they have semen extraction units. They put years of hard work into getting the Jewish population as high as possible and in a relative moment, all that work was washed away (and then some). Not to mention, their efforts of recruiting settlers in the future have no doubt been destroyed. No one is going to want to move there now. No one will be coming, and lots more will be leaving.

This, along with the major military losses, have weakened the Zionist entity tremendously. I wouldn’t say fatally weakened yet but that is where it’s trending.

I have yet to see a lib be able to explain why China harvesting data is worse than US corporations doing it (for US citizens). Like, even if you assume the evil see see pee even cares, what are they gonna do with my information about driving habits. But Google and Facebook don’t even make a fuss with sharing your info with those can actually use that data to harm you.

The fact that libs are so desperate to get everyone to believe the economy is going great actually (and you’re just an unserious dum dum if you think Bidenomics isn’t working) tells me they absolutely know the economy sucks and they are shitting their pants over it. Because “it’s the economy, stupid” is actually a reliable predictor of how people ultimately end up voting.

“You’re gonna cut me off just because my bf specifically went over to Germany and was a part of the Einsatzgruppen for a couple years, what’s the big deal?”

Axis of Dependence (Ukraine, “israel”, Taiwan) because without the support of US/NATO they would collapse.

In the spoiler text below, there is a comment from Ben-Gvir about this, per Al-Jazeera. I’m putting it in spoiler text because it’s horrific and will probably make you very angry. Death to Israel.

spoilerFar-right Israeli National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir says the provision of humanitarian aid to Palestinians in Gaza endangers Israeli soldiers and must stop after more than 100 Palestinians were reported killed while trying to get aid in Gaza City.

“Today it was proven that the transfer of humanitarian aid to Gaza is not only madness while our hostages are held in the Strip … but also endangers IDF soldiers,” Ben-Gvir said, calling the deliveries “oxygen to Hamas”.

The incident is “another clear reason why we must stop transferring this aid”, he wrote on X.

They have been saying the exact same thing about the former Soviet Union for over thirty years now. Just some short term pain to correct for all the economic mismanagement of socialism. Any day now...

GDP per capita - itself a terrible measure, especially comparing socialism and capitalism - only in recent years got back up to 1991 levels in Russia. Ukraine (even before the SMO) never got back up to the Soviet level. The entire Eastern Bloc would have been better off today in GDP per capita terms if they just had barely above zero economic growth this whole time.

A whole effort post I made on the topic

TOS in general is not good. I agree with you on Kirk but I think Spock is the only reason to even watch TOS (and I recommend that no one actually watch TOS).
