No, I don't agree with this at all. It tells us something about capitalism. It tells us something about how the U.S. are nowadays. Nothing more, nothing less.

I think I understand how you feel, in the sense I had a similar despair when I first landed in this community. Then I took a look around in this instance and found the slrpnk wiki page. Even just reading it was soothing for me, in a realistic way. If you feel like, take a look at it.
Please do keep in mind that Zionists and Jews are not synonyms. Jews have been opposing Zionism since its inception and keep doing so in large numbers. See also:
Our Approach to Zionism - JVP - Jewish Voice for Peace
Jewish Voice for Peace is guided by a vision of justice, equality and freedom for all people. We unequivocally oppose Zionism because it is counter to those ideals.
On top of what you say, I would also suggest the following:

I'm not sure I understand. This article talks about the Amazon fires and the criminals they mention are those that have been illegally ranching cattle there? Not the major deforestation companies for example? Did I perhaps miss something?
This sounds like one more theory to me since the
Environment and Climate Change Canada (ECCC) says in a written statement that “at this time, neither the substance nor its source has been identified. However, preliminary analysis at an ECCC laboratory suggests that the material could be plant-based.”
I am a bit conflicted with this article. One one hand I think I understand the intentions behind it, but It seems to me that it confuses opportunistic vanguardism with pragmatism.
Yes, Lenin managed to convince enough people to hijack the February Revolution and concentrate all the power to ~~the party~~ himself. To my understanding, he accomplished that mainly by using the wording of the actual bottom-up revolution. So the problem for me is not a matter of principle(s), but how to be sharp enough as a movement not to be fooled by people using a familiar narrative, while trying to achieve their own goals. Something like that.
Edit: Meaning, "pragmatism" was the bait. Nothing more.
It would be great if these approaches would actually contribute in a meaningful way. Unfortunately, it doesn't seem to be the case.
This is an article with some relevant info:
Climeworks’ “Mammoth” vacuum cleaner is not a solution to the climate crisis
Climeworks’ newest DAC plant, Mammoth, is purported to capture ten times the amount of CO2 as Orca; some 36,000 tonnes of CO2 per year. (...) If 36,000 tonnes sounds like a big number, it’s not: It equates to one one-millionth of our annual global emissions. Even if Climeworks and other DAC companies do build hundreds of these DAC plants, it would not equate to even one per cent of current annual global emissions.
From our world in data on CO~2~ emissions:
we now emit over 35 billion tonnes each year
May I add that these notes where provided to the NYT by the Israeli military?
Minutes of Hamas’s secret meetings, seized by the Israeli military and obtained by The New York Times,
So after all the debunked fabricated lies that Israel has spread thanks to the press during the last 12 months, are we supposed to take what the IDF gives in good faith?
It looks like the U.S. Journalist Jeremy Loffredo was released
Although an Israeli judge granted his release from police custody, he was ordered to remain in the country until October 20, allowing investigators more time to bring additional allegations or to further interrogate Loffredo,
Israeli police had held Loffredo, an independent journalist from New York, on suspicion of assisting an enemy in war, a serious allegation that carries a maximum sentence of life imprisonment or death,
“The claim that Loffredo and The Grayzone represent Israel’s enemy in wartime merely suggests that the Israeli government views the American people and free press as a legitimate target,”
The statement also called on the U.S. State Department to come to Loffredo’s defense, saying that the U.S. “has an obligation to defend its journalists who are merely adhering to their ethical obligation to inform the public of pertinent facts.”
Coincidentally, I'm also queer, an immigrant most of my life (since childhood actually and in several places), and I am most probably neurodivergent, but never had the money to check this out officially.
I think understand what you say. Still, the way I see things if we do a statement/analysis mentioning humans I believe we are condemned to arrive to the wrong conclusions if we only take into account the dominant civilization/culture. Or see things through its narrative.
I'm not saying to discard its importance. I'm just saying it's equally important to take into consideration broader inputs through time and space, to try to have a clearer picture.
Something like that.
