From a shifting frame of reference you can never tell if it is you that has changed as a person or others that changed. There's no math you can do to fix that.

The suggestive quality of georgia o’keeffe’s work is mostly overstated and reductive but i cant really argue with this one

Leftists will be like: "oh yeah I know a Jewish take on this!" and pull up a newspaper editorial from a Trotskyist in 1928.

I am in my "binging scifi film franchises that nobody even knew were franchises" phase and I am going to make this everyone else's problem too.

military culture versus war 

Military people will always believe in their own self-importance and necessity. How else would they live with themselves if they were not convinced of the exceptionalism of their particular brinkmanship? The savagery of their opponent's warmongering?

War is only sometimes a necessity. Those who profess war to be a career instead of a last resort will claim to be saviors while bringing forth the eternal sunset of humanity. There is nothing "tactical" about refusing negotiations and letting special operations units commit warcrimes. There is nothing heroic about gambling with lives in a game of war. Just the disastrous claim for a pretense to the resigned carpet bombings of wounded nations once they've run out civilians lives to play with.

:911: attacks, :boostsPorFavor: 

If you or anyone you know has seen TV or Film science fiction media including an obvious analogy for any of the following please get in touch.

1. Attack on Twin Towers / WTC
2. Attack on white house
3. Attack on Pentagon
4. Flight 93

I am trying to create an interactive list with embedded scenes from the relevant media and a synopsis of the events and their thematic relation to the 9/11 attacks. So if you can reply with a description of how it relates to one of these tropes, and a link to a public clip from a relevant scene, that would be a huge help. I can be emailed at thufie@riseup.net or you can reply or dm me here or on matrix @thufie:pixie.town

Media spoilers, re: :911: attacks, :boostsPorFavor: 

Here are two examples I already have:

Battlestar Galactica (2004) S1E1 (flight 93 analogy in Pilot episode)

Foundation (2021) S1E1 (Apple TV, space elevator suicide bombing in pilot episode, reference to WTC attacks)

Never forget this and never forget that this was repeated a dozen times since. There was no need for this war. No need for the genocide. No need for any of this.

It was all a political decision for Netanyahu to avoid accountability, and it was only possible because of the direct complicity of the Biden administration.

I don't need a therapist but I guess health insurance doesn't cover accomplices.
