An empty building burns down in France and there is non-stop front page news, global outrage, wall to wall coverage, etc.
A school full of children are incinerated alive in Gaza and not even a single report about it.
This is why the western decline will continue.
According to the state, it’s illegal to smash shop windows, but you’re allowed to fund the genocide in Gaza, beat, rape and kill protesters and, above all, exploit workers and drive them into poverty. Fuck the state.
CLERKS (1994) was released 32 years ago today.

Sanctions relief will continue. I think the diesel deal and the move regarding the Lindsey Graham Act are not the end of it. Unfortunately.
It’s unfortunate because we all had great respect for Lindsey. He devoted his life to America. We had an excellent relationship with him. And shortly before the tragedy, Lindsey was in Ukraine. He always supported us very strongly and pushed for as much assistance to Ukraine as possible.
It’s difficult without him, I’ll be honest. I want to thank both Democrats and Republicans who supported his bill. That was a major victory: this truly bipartisan support. And now, the decision to undo all of this, to block all of it, seems wrong to me. And it definitely helps only the Russians. It only fuels their satisfaction and their desire to keep killing people. This certainly does not stop the war.
