The triumph of Gisèle Pelicot - UnHerd

#politics #feminism #society #exploitation

There is a distinctive form of violence inherent in treating people, animals, and the world as mere objects, in order to use them to our own ends. The philosopher Martin Heidegger characterised this as a kind of epistemological violence which he called Gestell, usually translated as “enframing”. Far more than a set of tools or techniques, for Heidegger, enframing represented the essence of technology: a mindset in which the world is not encountered in its full being, but merely a set of resources standing ready to be used. To Heidegger it was an aggressive act to re-order the world conceptually in this way. He called it a “challenging-forth”, that obliterates that thing’s ability to be fully itself.

Peter Thiel Reveals How Scared Oligarchs Are Of The People

#politics #propaganda #control #war

But we’re seeing the propaganda losing its grip on our minds. Hollywood tried to train people to believe heroes look like soldiers and cops, or billionaires using their wealth to become Iron Man and Batman, and then the people chose as their hero a guy who was arrested for shooting a health insurance CEO. The other day a DJ threw up pictures of the suspected shooter Luigi Mangione during his concert and drew cheers from the crowd — and this was at a Disney-themed show.

So that’s why the empire managers are pushing to get their killer robots up and running as quickly as possible.

Opinion | I Was a Health Insurance Executive. What I Saw Made Me Quit. - The New York Times

#politics #health

At the time, most Americans had relatively modest cost-sharing obligations — a $300 deductible, a $10 co-payment. “Consumerism” proponents contended that if patients had more “skin in the game” they would be more prudent consumers of health care, and providers would lower their prices.

Dr. Hussam Abu Safia, Director of Kamal Adwan #Hospital

Yesterday was one of the darkest, most difficult and bloodiest days at Kamal Adwan Hospital.

The warplanes targeted the hospital and hit more than eight buildings in its vicinity. One of these buildings was inhabited, and some people came out of it with their bodies on fire, some of whom were tragically martyred. This brutal bombardment resulted in the martyrdom of eight individuals, and there are still children trapped under the charred rubble.

The situation became critical when bulldozers and tanks entered the area and started firing directly at the hospital from all directions.

The intensive care unit, located on the western side, was directly targeted. The tank shells hit the intensive care unit, igniting a fire that forced us to evacuate the patients quickly. Miraculously, we managed to evacuate the oxygen cylinders of the emergency room.

Unfortunately, the isolation ward was completely burned.

Thank God, we were able to put out the fire with our bare hands, as there were no fire extinguishers available and the water supply was cut off. We used blankets and our bare hands to control the fire.

The scene inside the ICU was like a war zone, with bullets piercing the equipment, walls and windows.

It is incomprehensible why we are being targeted in such a brutal way.

We have been addressing the world for over 75 days, and yet nothing is being done. This indifference is allowing the occupiers to escalate their violence, and I fear that they will continue to attack other departments, which could lead to the destruction of the hospital before the eyes of the world. Unfortunately, this is our reality.

We currently have 71 injuries, and this is the only #ICU in northern #Gaza.

‘Israel’ tells troops to hide genocide after IOF soldiers denied entry to #Australia

Israeli occupation soldiers have been told, by an Israeli X propaganda account with apparent access to insider footage and information, to stop posting pictures of themselves ‘in the battlefields of Gaza or elsewhere’, where Israeli forces are engaged in their fifteenth month of genocide against the Palestinian people – because they may be arrested while travelling in other countries and their ‘vacation will turn into a nightmare’:

Why #Russia will never attack the #EU:

I know there is a lot of #military and patriotic #propaganda out there and the military industrial complex is on the rise because everyone wants to arm themselves because of the Russian #threat.

Let's pause for a moment and think about the reasons why #war is still being waged today:

1) The number one reason is still #religion. Religion serves to unite one's own #community, but is also always a demarcation against others. In Europe and Russia, religion only plays a subordinate role and the churches are struggling with insignificance.

2) The second important reason is natural #resources. Western Europe has long since used up its natural resources and is therefore plundering other countries, mainly in #Africa. Russia has enough natural resources of its own.

3) Population growth so that new living spaces are needed. In #Europe and #Russia, the #population is declining. As a result, many families only have one child and they don't want to lose it to the war.

4) Important geostrategic positions. Europe is losing importance. Russia's most important trading partners are in #Asia. Europe is strategically insignificant.

Europe is increasingly losing importance and therefore wants to feel important militarily. For Russia, an attack would bring no advantage and only high losses. Russia can infiltrate the weakened political system in Europe much more easily by manipulating elections and causing social unrest with propaganda. This hybrid warfare is much more successful than an open war.
