      Is this the start of a schism on how many legitimate Iran threads there are?

      What we’re doing in Iran right now is sufficiently awful and unjustified that I think the usual mainstream resistlib platforms (usually comedy stuff on network television) should really consider changing their programming and just focusing in on this shit. I don’t think the average American (even on the left) has the bandwidth or the media diet to quite appreciate how bad this is. This should bother ordinary people much more than the cost of gasoline, at least insofar as those people consider themselves decent or, you know, human.

      My mom and I like watching movies, and I suggest we watch an Iranian movie due to what’s going on. We end up watching *the Seed of the Sacred Fig*, a move set during the Women, Life, Freedom protests a few years ago. Very good, highly recommend. Also after the move ended my mom said that the movie made her “feel better that we’re bombing them” which wasn’t quite my intention but to each their own.

      > The turmoil in the global energy market from war in the Middle East is exactly the sort of emergency scenario that China has long been preparing for.

      > Worried that conflict in the region could wreak havoc on its economy by cutting off the supply of oil, Beijing has been spending lavishly to limit how much it needs to import, while building up large stockpiles and diversifying where it gets its energy from.

      You mean to say you’re supposed to prepare for potential disruptions in one of the most notoriously violent regions on the planet?

      [Iran-Backed Hackers Claim Wiper Attack on Medtech Firm Stryker](https://krebsonsecurity.com/2026/03/iran-backed-hackers-claim-wiper-attack-on-medtech-firm-stryker/)

      A hacktivist group with links to Iran’s intelligence agencies is claiming responsibility for a data-wiping attack against Stryker, a global medical technology company based in Michigan. News reports out of Ireland, Stryker’s largest hub outside of the United States, said the company sent home more than 5,000 workers there today. Meanwhile, a voicemail message at Stryker’s main U.S. headquarters says the company is currently experiencing a building emergency.

      Based in Kalamazoo, Michigan, Stryker [NYSE:SYK] is a medical and surgical equipment maker that reported $25 billion in global sales last year. In a lengthy statement posted to Telegram, an Iranian hacktivist group known as Handala (a.k.a. Handala Hack Team) claimed that Stryker’s offices in 79 countries have been forced to shut down after the group erased data from more than 200,000 systems, servers and mobile devices.

      Republicans in Congress could have stopped this before it got out of hand. I guarantee enough of them knew this was a terrible idea with no planning or foresight to stop it. But now we’re spending over a billion dollars a day to further entrench an evil regime, kill civilians, wreck the global economy, and turn the world against us.

      What a pathetic and worthless collection of people.

      So how long until you think the first ground troops are deployed? Because we all know that’s where this is headed.
