    the critical voice of people’s lived experiences are amplified for the benefit of western audiences and there’s plenty of documentation to prove it – some of it from the american federal gov’t itself.

    if you’re an american, the federal gov’t is legally obligated to share cia/fbi/state department/etc. files through a system called the freedom of information act.

    do yourself a favor and read those files and learn about how they have openly created propaganda about north korea to get you to believe what you just wrote.

    when i read that, i see some parallel version of myself if were a i was a mercenary. just like planter, i too am a liberal who prefers to think of himself as a leftist, but i have the benefit of being too queer to have ever been indoctrinated the way he clearly has.

    my leftist education comes from two places: written retrospectives of the only successful leftist movements of the past two centuries, and the legally mandated confessions of the neoliberal oligarchy that shaped us. i’m still a neophyte to leftism and clearly so most of the time – but even at my level, i can see where planter or abughazaleh (or even mamdani) fall woefully short of understanding leftism due to both of those educational sources making it clear what rightism is.




  • i’ve seen some of those before, and they make it clear that this person is an ex-mercenary version of someone like kate abughazaleh: someone who insists on calling themselves a leftist but clearly isn’t one. their liberal worldview betrays them—they have no idea how their own goals serve only to deepen this late-stage capitalist colonial misery that keeps breeding terrorism and inequality for all.

    the tldr version answer to your question is that his foreign policy is the same as nixon’s, reagan’s, obama’s, biden’s, or trump’s and his recommendations guarantee that isreal will continue murdering children, but with an improve mask of plausible deniability.

    what’s truly confusing about platner is that he’s literally branded himself as a nazi; has multiple pictures of him w nazis; and speaks fondly of doing nazis things, but people still question whether or not he’s a nazi.
