The person arrested is Jorge Glas, a leftist politician in contact with ex-president and socialist Rafael Correia.
Ecuador’s current president is Daniel Noboa, son of billionaire and previous presidential candidate Arvalo Noboa who Correia had investigated for tax evasion, slave/child labour, money laundering etc. so naturally they hate Jorge Glas.
Perhaps Daniel wanted a win against Correia supporters, and maybe felt emboldened by israel’s recent bombing of the Iranian embassy. Similar to israel, he probably doesn’t have to worry about the US disapproving of this move since the target is a leftist and he’s a capitalist.
Tiktok is very pro-Palestine indeed. Compare that to the fascist shithole that reddit is right now (or always has been), and I’d say the kids are alright.
That’s the thing; they are basically nazis. Zionists have the same goal as nazis of getting Jews out of Europe and weaponizing and exacerbating antisemitism for an imperialist agenda (here, that’s colonialism and the destabilization of the middle-east).
It’s a fascist colony built on the continued genocide and ethnic cleansing of the native Palestinians. It’s inevitable that what you get is a similarly fascist population not unlike that of nazi Germany. Specially with half of the colony’s population being military conscripts who directly carry out the genocide.
Biden denounces ICC for ‘outrageous’ implication of equivalence between Israel and Hamas
The Biden administration on Monday forcefully denounced efforts by the International Criminal Court to seek arrest warrants for top Israeli officials and Hamas leaders, saying the court’s efforts put the terrorist organization and a top US ally on equivalent footing.
Regardless, he is the face of the US empire right now. Makes sense to have his pic when the US is doing something again
If you’re gonna be such a pedantic shitlib, should I edit the caption to be something from this article Linkerbaan mentioned? Since it’s about this incident specifically.

Why go out of your way so much to try defending a fascist? Why do you have an image saved on your device to defend this piece of shit online?
Vocal participation in a genocidal system is endorsement of it. You can’t tell people to vote for one of the parties of Capital one year and then suddenly tell people that actually it needs to be overthrown and think that’s going to happen 5 years later.
At some point you have to commit to it being “broken” (actually working as intended of course) and organize based entirely on the fact that it is and can not be supported in any way whatsoever. We’re long past that point with the “lesser evil” party currently committing genocide.
Successful revolutions in the past have used elections primarily as a way to show the size of the movement, never by endorsing a party of Capital. Specially not one committing a genocide.
put sanctions on Israeli settlers
To pretend like it’s not state-supported settler colonialism and just an individual thing, and he even walked lmao. You’d expect the supposed “lesser evil” candidate to do the bare minimum of stopping all relations with “israel” when it’s committing a genocide in full view of the world.
(this one and a “why voting is a bad idea if you are a left wing person” video) the logic of which doesn’t make a whole lot of sense if you take it at face value […] With no particular other solutions to offer
The answer is to organize, since you don’t seem to have the patience to watch a video, seeing as how you put it through fucking chat gpt lmao. Why are you trusting shitty LLMs with political stuff?
