US airstrikes on Iranian nuclear facilities are sharpening the focus on one option Iran has yet to really deploy in the conflict: disrupting regional oil trade, especially through the critical Strait of Hormuz.Verity Ratcliffe (Bloomberg)
God bless President Trump, for his bold direction, and perfect strategy. Midnight Hammer will go down in history as one of the greatest military operations the world has ever seen.
Huge thanks to our AMAZING US Air Force pilots, and all who aided them. Our profound gratitude to Sec Hegseth and General Dan Caine, and everyone who was involved. Absolute Heroes, all.
May God bless America. ✝️🇺🇸

_Russia: Other nations ready to supply Iran with nukes after U.S. strike_
The key tension:
1) If Medvedev's stance actually reflects that of the Russian government, then it would signify that the effort required by those who seek to prevent Iran from becoming a nuclear power is much higher—and riskier—than they had been expecting; but also
2) it validates the accusation that Iran is actually seeking to become a nuclear power, and that major global powers are not just OK with that, but are strongly in favor.
Therefore, Medvedev's statement significantly raises the risks of either continuing to passively "watch and wait" as Iran continues developing its nuclear technology and capabilities, or alternatively of taking positive, military action to interdict Iran: Other nuclear powers might take Iran's side, not just economically and politically, but perhaps even militarily.
It's becoming a game of chicken.
Nevertheless, Trump's justification for the strike against Iran's nuclear research facilities is ethically equivalent to "red flag laws" that criminalize the possession of weapons by those judged (rightly or wrongly) to be unworthy of being armed.

Since his election in 2016, Donald Trump’s political opponents have portrayed him as a dangerous, unstable fabulist doing the bidding of a malign, nuclear-armed foreign power.Having returned to the White House this year, Trump is proving his detractors correct on all counts but one: the location on the map. The rogue state that he’s colluding with — at great peril to the planet — is not Russia, as his most vocal detractors alleged, but Israel.

Anyone whose analysis amounts to "It's rich people's fault. No one else is to blame," is beholden to a concept of power at once puerile and dualist.
Anyone whose analysis amounts to "It's politicians' fault. They're the ones who should do something," is likewise beholden to a concept of power facile and dithering.
Anyone whose analysis is "It's rich people and politicans' fault. They're why shit stinks," is still less than half way there, yet at least has grokked that power is not a monopole.
The Estates is a way to divide the field--picking the Third Estate as the seat of ACTUAL power is--if it can be wielded. National strike comes to mind.
But in a way, I'd argue you're reframing the problem. The 0.01% own the governments, media and have been the bosses of the "intelligence" & military communities. There are "good apples" presumably in those barrels but the rot is systemic.
So still not sure what the >50% is to which you allude--carry on!
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/What_Is_…
The idea that the ultra-rich "own" the people who make up the other estates is a framing beyond simplistic.
Consider armed enforcement, the fifth estate. Exactly how are 18,000 separate police departments owned by a minuscule number of individual persons?
Those entities of the fifth estate have shared interests that they work together to protect, but the idea that there's some hierarchical control enacted through sequestered exchange value, some persons who "own" three quarters of a million people, when each of those hundreds of thousands of people are operating out of their own self-interests, out of their own desire to employ a monopoly of force to the satisfaction of their own ego-value, is puerile.
Good apples doesn't enter into it. The rot is systemic. Including the rot of the third estate. Looking to the third estate to enact a national strike is laughable. The seat of compliancism choosing not to comply? Please. Hence we get distributed flashmob block parties.
If the 0.1% were not writing legislation to benefit themselves, much of the systemic rot could be offset. ICE agents are also compelled currently by quotas but the people in it are mostly racist assholes.
Still: what is the other 50+% of the problem? I think are just muddying the waters. But then, you also don't seem to think there's ANY answers to the horrific situation our species is in. So why argue about anything? Indeed, that may well be an accurate assessment. We're fucked.
Not going to argue with consensus media. You asked a question. Myself answered it. You chose to disregard and not engage with the answer in preservation of your consensus framing.
(Consensus is just that. The fourth estate is consensus in the form of media. This is media. What we're doing right now. Only myself am not actively reinscribing consensus, am not actively reinscribing the status quo.)
If you honestly believe that the only reason police (notorious for behaving as if law does not apply to them) are only cruel because laws tell them to be, then nothing myself can say will convince you otherwise.
Per your "Still." Again, asked and answered. The other 50%+ is perquisition (the third estate), consensus media (the fourth estate, again, what you are doing right now) and armed enforcement (the fifth estate). Can repeat this ad nauseam. You won't hear the answer if it fails to affirm your insistence that the second estate "owns" all those disparate ego-value interests.
For more discussion of how armed enforcement operates out of it's own ego-value interests, see this thread:
mastodon.social/@richpuchalsky…
No one need order an ICE agent not to provide adequate food to children in a concentration camp. No one need "own" that member of the fifth estate for them to engage in depraved indifference.
Racism is sufficient to direct their non-action, without any story needing to be told about how some statistical error of a minority, the second estate—its members distinguished by having more digits on their balance sheets than people who will mourn them when they are gone—somehow "owns" those members of the fifth estate by virtue of the second estate being "bosses".
Cruelty is more than sufficient a motivator without having to imagine puppeteers pulling their strings. Any story that elides this, by blaming other people, people who aren't even in a position to be indifferent to the children in a given cage, only serves to perpetuate the systemic rot.

Yea atp everyone who thinks the issue is not with the people themselves is just completely insane.
EDIT: my point remains even if you don't like the creator of Hyprland.
Plus the fact that he is charging for personal support and themes/dotfiles, so the software remains the same. Archcraft does the same for Arch and no one gives a shit.
Not that I would buy it though, even if I needed support and pre-made themes Vaxry's attitude towards well intended contributors can be bad.
