Confucius viewed war as a tragic failure of moral governance, emphasizing that physical force should be a last resort compared to virtue, education, and social harmony.
So, unsurprisingly hes being banned.

A pivotal moment in Lula's life

The Trump people know FULL WELL that restarting wage garnishment will break the backs of millions of people IN THEIR BASE.
From this article:
" Staff said they warned senior Treasury officials that scores of Trump supporters would be seriously hurt by going after the wages and benefits of people struggling to keep their jobs. "This is not who you think it is. The demographics are not good for us," one source said. "
WE'VE BEEN SAYING THIS FOR MANY YEARS! ONLY 30% OF STUDENT LOAN BORROWERS ARE DEMOCRATS. THE REST ARE REPUBLICANS OR INDEPENDENTS. THE WORST HURT STATES ARE RED STATES!!
Thanks to Barry J. Dyke for sending this article!

Then silence.

For six weeks, NFL star Azeez Al-Shaair has used his platform to honor Palestinian girls. Today, he honored Fatima Al-Bayook, a Palestinian girl who was shot and killed by Israeli forces two days ago.
Fatima was the sole survivor of an Israeli attack that killed her entire family in 2023.

Late-stage capitalism creates the conditions for its own destruction. It concentrates wealth, intensifies exploitation, and expands the ranks of the dispossessed. In doing so, it creates the class contradictions that force its overthrow. The system breeds its own gravediggers.

Following Lula’s surprise win in the Brazilian presidential election, Netanyahu has announced that Brazil is just three weeks away from developing a nuclear weapon. Given he has a 100% track record of being wrong about these things, we should take the warning very seriously.
Netanyahu is worried he could lose the Israeli election after his army chief refused to bomb Iran to boost his chances. Therefore, he desperately needs a last-minute bogey man to scare Israelis into re-electing him. The Brazilian president fits the bill because he once described Israel as a “terrorist state”.
Clearly, something must be done about Lula because no one who tells the truth about Israel is allowed to lead a country. Last night’s result was truly a crime against humanity.
Polymarket bros were burying their heads as Lula took a shock lead in an election he wasn’t supposed to win. When the final result came in, President Trump took the calm and measured step of immediately rejecting it. Reassuringly, the US Navy is expected to start bombing Brazilian fishing boats in the next few hours.
No one seriously expected it would come to this, given the fascist wave that’s swept across Latin America. Trump and Netanyahu had conducted a range of liberations on the continent, such as kidnapping Venezuela’s president and flipping the voting machines in Colombia. No wonder they were confident they could pull off a coup in Brazil.
The good people at Meta were so keen to help out that they banned Lula from running electoral ads. An infuriated Lula said: “We cannot have monstrously huge corporations earning millions and billions, paying no taxes to this country, and trying to steer this country’s election results.”
This proves Lula is a dictator who needs to be stopped—and we tried. We really tried.
On election night, Bolsonaro’s henchmen shut down public transport in pro-Lula areas, and even cut the power cable to one polling station, but the Brazilian Supreme Court used this as an excuse to extend voting hours.
Of course, none of this would’ve mattered if Brazilian voters weren’t idiots. It should’ve been such an easy choice: the former steel worker who lost a finger at work versus the man who has never worked a day in his life.
Obviously, nepo baby Flavio is on the side of ordinary workers. He’s a clone of the jailed super-villain whose only goal is the total destruction of the Amazon. Mini-Bolsonaro offered the mouthwatering prospect of gangsterism and the end of breathable air. 48% of Brazilians thought that was a brilliant idea, but the other 52% reminded us why democracy is a failed experiment.
Just look at Lula’s tyranny: the monster reduced the workday without loss of salary and then strutted over to the UN to defend Palestine and Cuba. During his third term poverty and inequality fell, while unemployment, illiteracy and deforestation hit record lows.
Bolsonaro vowed to reverse all of these things and give Brazil’s resources to Trump. He also vowed to tongue kiss the wall in Israel. Now the only thing he’s gonna be tongue-kissing is the wall in his jail cell.
Victory would’ve meant Bolsonaro avoided prison for corruption, money laundering, and tax evasion. No wonder he refuses to accept the result.
It’s turning into a truly terrible week for fascists. We’d already lost one amazing tyrant yesterday in Vucic, and now we’re facing the prospect of a Trump wipe out in the midterms and a Netanyahu defeat in Israel. I’m just consoling myself with the fact that the alternatives to Netanyahu are even worse—and the alternatives to MAGA are no better.
