    Mate, the entire developed world thinks America is a joke, and the US healthcare system is a crime against humanity. The world literally agrees that this scab getting murdered is justice because your system is so parasitic and evil. It’s darkly hilarious, and it’s given us all a break from having to hear about Musk and Trump.

    In fact, the only people who think a verifiably sociopathic parasite oligarch getting murdered is wrong, are fucking braindead morons.

    I once came across a large adult wombat just chilling in the middle of a single lane road in a national park. Wikipedia says they grow up to 35kg, but I swear this one was pushing 50kg; like a large bulldog crossed with a pig. One absolutely rotund stocky fur-ball. He continued to waddle down the middle of the road as I swerved from side to side, trying to get him to move over so I could go around. I had places to be, and drugs to consume. He did not give a fuck. He couldn’t give one single iota of a fuck. I eventually got outta the car and chased him. I started with a slow jog but he just continued trotting down the middle of the road, keeping his distance. Within about 10 seconds I was sprinting as fast as I could but the majestic chonk wasn’t even trying hard; just leisurely galloping. The chase continued for a solid 100 meters before he opened up and just took off like a rocket, accelerating into the shadows before darting sideways into the bushes. I was blown away. I thought the fat little cunt would be slow but he was as fast as a dog. Don’t fuck with wombats. They are the honey badgers of Oz.


  • Gee. I wonder why.

    In 1994, Ukraine agreed to transfer these weapons to Russia and became a party to the Treaty on the Non-Proliferation of Nuclear Weapons, in exchange for assurances from Russia, the United States and United Kingdom to respect the Ukrainian independence and sovereignty in the existing borders.

    This is probably a response to Israel’s genocide/wars, and the US electing Trump (plus christian evangelism). Nukes reduce the likelihood of invasion significantly. Regardless of whether we despise their authoritarian regime, Iran is smart to proceed with nuclear sovereignty. No nation or its oligarchy can be trusted to defend your sovereignty over their own profits or domestic politics. There are no friends in business.

    The thing is though, he is merely a symptom of a sociopathic society, economic, and political system. UH under his leadership may be the most egregious example in US healthcare, but the fact remains that the current system rewards psychopathy and narcissism with wealth and power. There is an endless supply of criminally corrupt scabs just like him that will step up to take his place for a chance at being the slave master.

    Greed, exploitation, extortion, fraud, theft, corruption, murder, terrorism, authoritarianism, ecocide, genocide; all of these are rewarded or condoned on some level by our “democracies” as long as you do it behind the shield of an LLC, in the name of profit.

    We are on a rock floating in the middle of nowhere, that took billions of years to materialize a biosphere out of nothing, in a cold and desolate universe, and the system we have chosen is aggressively annihilating it all in the blink of an eye. We are a cancer that is killing our host.

    THE WORLD HUMANITY HAS BUILT — THE REALITY WE ACCEPT — IS PSYCHOTIC!
