Lol yes they are. We’re so fucking stupid.

I got no input other then, you’re doing praxis even if its on a micro scale, great work!
In total, between 2019 and 2020, “IRI issued 11 advocacy grants to artists, musicians, performers or organizations that created 225 art products addressing political and social issues,” which it claimed were “viewed nearly 400,000 times.” Additionally, the Institute bragged that it “supported three civil society organizations (CSOs) from LGBTI, Bihari and ethnic communities to train 77 activists and engage 326 citizens to develop 43 specific policy demands,” which were apparently “proposed before 65 government officials.”
Between October and December of 2020, the IRI hosted three separate “transgender dance performances” across the country. Per the report, “the goal of the performance was to build self-esteem in the transgender community and raise awareness on transgender issues among the local community and government officials.” At the final performance, in Dhaka City, the US Embassy sent its “deputy consul general and deputy director of the Office for Democracy, Rights and Governance” to participate.
Finally, the IRI also carried out “community-specific quantitative and qualitative research,” which included “three focus group reports” and what it called “the largest published survey of LGBTI people in Bangladesh.”
In sum: “IRI’s program raised public awareness on social and political issues in Bangladesh and supported the public to challenge the status quo, which ultimately aims for power shift [sic] inside Bangladesh.”
In the US, Republican Party politicians have traditionally scorned government support for visual artists, transgender dancers, and rappers. But when an opportunity to install a more US-friendly government arose, the GOP’s in-house regime change organ eagerly transformed its domestic cultural enemies into political foot soldiers.
This is incredible. This is such a prime and opaque example of Rainbow Imperialism. It’s like this example was cooked up in a lab. Here you have, the most vile supporters of the erasure of queer life in America doing queer activism in Bangladesh, funding queer artists and organizations to bring awareness to queer struggles within Bangladesh, for the explicit goal of creating political unrest in the country so that its leadership can be removed and replaced with a Compradore Dictator.
If this was an organization being run by the Democratic Party, you would be hard-pressed to get any liberal to look at this critically. All they would see is their chosen saviors doing savior shit in Bangladesh. They would conclude that the change in leadership is justifiable because they’re “saving” queer people.
So how do they square this circle now? How do you reconcile the notion that the GOP is doing Trans Rights in Bangladesh to topple the government, but also trying to genocide Trans people through stochastic terror campaigns here in the homeland? What could the conclusion be for these liberals?
There was a line of Mario themed flash cards for teaching kids all kinds of stuff in the early 90s, I think. In the card about Mao, they depicted him like the image above.
I’m sure America has nothing to do with that. I’m sure America would just sit back and let weapons be delivered into Gaza or Lebanon without reprisal.
I think the people who call her a Marxist either know that, or don’t care.
“Instead of callin’ a cop, call a crack head!”
So what is the deal with RT really? What’s the assessment? I know very little about RT other then its “Russian State Media”. Is it just a full blown propaganda house like the west says or what?
Where is the second photo from?
I feel like way to many of these questions change based on the conditions of the country you live in…
So what exactly do I need to write in, want to know so it gets counted.
I’ll wait for the Nickelodeon Kids broadcast like the do with the super bowl so Dora the Explorer can explain the border crisis to me in terms I understand.
Congratulations you just sanctioned yourself.
This is not just a framework thing. Have you ever wondered how a laptop knows that the lid is closed? Its magnets. The laptop has a magnet triggered switch in it that turns off the screen when the lid is closed. When you stack them you put the top laptop in range of the bottoms magnet triggering the reed switch in the top laptop turning off the screen.

Lol spin score? Fucking tech bro solution to critical thinking, incredible. When do we get to fully shut off our brains?
Its cute that these organizations are pointing this inconsistency out but it’s clear that this is a “rules for thee not for me” situation here. The Administration has the bag already, there is no leverage to utilize.
I hear we’re doing wizard shit in this area.
I used to be a heavy Tasker user. I think I hit a wall with building more complex rules using their interface, which made me stop using it. Maybe they have a way to just write a script instead now, but I haven’t looked into it.
