Situation continues to worsen in Burkina Faso https://x.com/WerbCharlie/status/1949527898387620017
π§π«|#BurkinaFaso: JNIM fighters seemingly entered the centre of PibaorΓ© earlier today, with footage showing them posing with and desecrating an AES roundabout. These new landmarks are inadvertently becoming a way for the group to show it has successfully overran an urban area.
it's ridiculously easy to bypass. I don't know what they were hoping to achieve with this implementation. it's not like they couldn't have done it so that you'd actually need ID rather than just a photo of someone who the computer thinks looks old enough. then again, this is the government that wanted to "ban encryption" a few years ago so I'm not surprised they're this incompetent.
prediction: they're going to blame minorities
Seems likely they struck first, and Cambodia has been calling for a ceasefire since this morning while Thailand presses on with the fighting. Also Thailand is much more of a western ally in the region compared to Cambodia. And it's a soft military dictatorship. It's not exactly a clear-cut situation tho but I'm willing to say that Thailand is the aggressor and should chill out.
fuck Thailand
Yes, that's true. I hope that movements in the west can move towards a seizure of power soon because that's the only thing that will really end this.
I'm more talking about the kind of people (admittedly, they were more common a few years ago) who act like the left in the western countries is uniquely terrible and ineffective when the same things are true I so many countries. All of our movements have failed no matter where they're found.
Why would they need to break Egypt up when it's already a US client state complicit in genocide? Egypt is likely backing the Abu Shabab gang to some degree.
unfortunately a lot of people are too soupy-brained to consume media that isn't in video format so they probably get a lot more visibility doing videos and not articles (despite the latter clearly being a better medium for news)
