The US setting the precedent that piracy is good actually, and now there are consequences
I think you mean a Somali PMC has confiscated the tanker for breaching the Hormuz sanctions
so the Yemen Coast Guard referred to here is the other part of Yemen not controlled by Ansarallah?
Yarrr. Ya call that a tanker?
Pirates of the Arabian
We’re all doing blockades now
Was it necessary to use a tweet by a right wing cryptocurrency podcaster as the main link?
“tweet” and “right wing” in the same sentence is redundant.
Many government officials use twitter, including from China and Iran. Most news agencies still use twitter. There’s plenty of legit things on twitter still.
Mario Nawfal is a guy who got famous by promoting NFTs. He runs a podcast which promotes cryptocurrency. His tweet only quotes the same thing that al jazeera article says and he says “source al jazeera” in his tweet. He’s not a source of news, he’s just a promoter of crypto.
People in 1930s German also continued consuming media that was run by Reich supporting liberals; “To constantly swim against the tide is suicide” according to one German newspaper publisher. Each tweet posted puts money (power) in the pocket of a known fascist, no matter the justification nor the leanings of the poster.
How is this related to anything I said? There are reliable information sources that still post to twitter. China’s MFA is not doing Der Sturmer by posting press statements to twitter. The point is that Mario Crypto Guy is not a reliable source of information.
“Society is fascist, yet you participate in it. Curious.”
How insufferable. Talk to me when you contribute materially to China’s revolution
