Russia has abandoned Assad. Confirmed.

Hezbollah has abandoned Assad. Confirmed.

Iran is only sending in waves of Iraqi militia who are being slaughtered by A-10s from America. Confirmed.

The SAA can hardly stand. Confirmed.

And yet Iranian/Assad propagandists (who I used to watch) are spinning tall tales about a "glorious successful counteroffensive" in Hama.

With what? They have nothing left. Their allies have abandoned them. Those allies are the only reason they lasted this long.

For the love of God, please stop this. Stop lying. Save your people. Negotiate.

Iranians and Russians want the "stop the war(s)" chants to be in the West/Israel, but not in their own states. When they are in their own states, they beat those people to death.

I see it now. I was lied to. My empathy was taken advantage of. I feel sick.

The reality is that they are crumbling, and people are dying by the hundreds and by the thousands to maintain now easily deboooonked lies.

Fuck Khamenei, the betrayer.

Fuck Putin, the butcher.

They hate their own people.

Fuck them.

I know this is going to sound extremely ironic, almost satirical, but may God help the "FSA" to finish this.

Universities are a money scam.

Sam Hyde is right when he says the only important thing that university teaches you is networking, and even then, it's just out of happenstance (i.e. who you make friends with on chance), and not really forcing you to learn networking as a "skill".

I once met a homeless guy who told me he studied law. Clearly he didn't "network" hard enough...

When people were pointing this out years and years ago, they were called racist Neeeeezis.

Now they finally aknowledge it.

Assad is going down.

He was a real fighter, but all fighters lose eventually.

I just hope the opposition groups don't form an actual alliance with Israel. Many of the Islamist variety are actually angry at Assad for not doing anything against the Israeli attacks.

They also have shoulder-patches with the red triangle and phrases like "for the martyr Sinwar".

Remember this when pro-Syrian government spokespeople (who live abroad and are paid by Iran) claim all the rebels love Israel.

It's kinda strange how Kings and Generals, which has for years now taken an extremely anti-Russian stance, is going to do this.

Are they going to be objective?

How will Epic History TV respond?

Are the Jews going to kvetch?

Find out soon, I guess....

It's dreams like those that make me even more paranoid than I already am.

I genuinely think I'm being watched, and have been for some time.

I keep having graphic dreams.

Some of the most graphic dreams I've ever had in my life.

None of that "I tried punching but everything went slow-mo" stuff.

Yesterday I had 2 dreams.

The first one was being in a car-chase of some kind. Being given a gun and then shooting out the window at the police. Stupid thing to do. Next thing I know, I get shot twice in the back. The pain I felt in the dream was crazy. I could feel the warm blood coming out of my back. I couldn't move my legs. The car stopped, I crawled out onto the road, and basically bled out.

The next dream I had, after waking up and then falling back asleep, started out relatively fine. I was back in boarding school, went to the old sports area to work out a bit. I come back to the dorms where some of my friends are, and start reading a magazine. I get to a page where everything goes wrong.

The page was inserted, and it was basically about some guy being outed as a "pedo" (most likely an exaggeration, because the person in question was a Youtuber I used to watch). Next thing I know, one of the dorm mates attacks another one. And before I can rush to stop it, I have hands around my neck, choking me, hard. I try to say "stop, you're choking me man, stop!". I black out, and wake up again.

I could still feel the grip around my neck.

An interesting point on corruption.

Both Russia and Ukraine are some of the most corrupt countries in Europe.

However, while in Russia the corruption mostly relates to corruption supporting the war (i.e. sending shitty weapons to the front, fast-tracking training, giving people - mostly Asiatics/Caucasians - money to become "meat" etc...), in Ukraine the corruption relates to trying to avoid the war (bribery to avoid draft notices, paying smugglers to cross the border, selling provided weapons on the black market etc...).

OK, I'm just going to have to say it:

The Axis of Resistance suffered a heavy defeat.

Iran (the patron) can't be trusted. They betrayed their own when it got too hot for even them.

Russia is overheating and may end up sputtering to a halt because of it, in spite of their gains.

Assad is on the way out. FSA/HTS forces launched a surprise offensive and appear to be making (relatively, considering their size) massive gains in mere hours.

There is no statement from the Houthis or the Iraqi resistance. To be honest, I think they're dazed and confused (literally).

This does not mean that I don't still support the rights of the Palestinians, the Lebanese, the Yemenis, the Iraqis, or the Russo-Ukrainians.

But this is reality.

The loss may not be as big as Israel and the West are spinning it, but this all is still a loss. A big loss.

The Israelis are, as always, out on top. They have the backing of Russia (now Iran's patron) and the U.S.

Ukraine seems to be set on holding until Trump comes in. And Trump appears set on using a stick to beat Russia into negotiating and making concessions (in spite of what mainstream media is painting - i.e. Trump is sucking Putin's dick).

This has been a crazy week for international relations.

I'm tired of this, boss.

I'm tired.

The Russians were fine with Tolstoy's teachings being exported abroad, but they never incorporated the teachings for themselves.

I'm tired, and I just want to rest.

Older adults act like teenagers and younger children don't know how to get around "bans" and "blocks" or don't know their way around the internet in general.

I think the opposite is the case.

I'd wager that the average teen knows more about and has more experience using private messaging services, VPNs, IP blockers etc... than I do.

Remember when using proxies on school computers was all the craze?

"Messaging services and gaming sites, however, will not be restricted"

"Such legislation could push kids into “dangerous, unregulated parts of the internet”, Digital Industry Group Inc says - a fear also expressed by some experts."

“We don’t fence the ocean… but we do create protected swimming environments that provide safeguards and teach important lessons from a young age”

“I can’t think of any technology that exists at this point that can pull this off”

"More recently France introduced legislation requiring social media platforms to block access to children under 15 without parental consent. Research indicated almost half of users were able to circumvent the ban using a simple VPN."

This whole thing is probably going to fall flat on its face.

My mistake, I think the "abuse of trust" argument applies to teachers or social workers.

I don't know what the position was/is regarding adults in a consensual relationship who don't have a "position of trust" over their partner.

Anyways, Lily Allen is a good example of a "case-study".

This study was published 6 years ago, and basically tracks with most, if not all, of my life experiences from the age of let's say 10 up.

There are some issues still, such as the idea that the age of consent should be 14, but adults can't have sexual relations with 14 year olds because "abuse of trust" (this doesn't take into account adult inexperience vs. the teenager's experience), or the notion that children under 14 aren't as developed (sexually) as children who are 14 ("early bloomers" are ignored).

BUT, generally, it's a well-researched study that I think most people can agree with (if they're honest with themselves about their own experiences as "children"/teens).
