Well that’s the stupidest bsky I’ve seen in a while. Has he ever even met a Western lib? Because they don’t think that. Things were “good” in the West then because the West was pillaging post-Soviet states.

You know that Korean forces were only involved in pushing back the Kursk incursion, which ended eight months ago, right?

I keep trying to make “fucking guy” happen, but it’s not going to happen because few people have watched What We Do In the Shadows. Mass culture is dead.

Twenty-four is the highest number, faghetaboutit.

Right? It was self-evidently a grift, yet “serious” bourgeois rags like FT pretend otherwise.

Two years ago Kshama Sawant ripped Ryan Grim a new asshole on Briahna Joy Gray‘s show. Grim’s salary depends on his not understanding.

Thanks I h8 it.

Huh:

• The entity represented by the football association is included on the United Nations list of non-self-governing territories.

The oligarchs long ago made Jimmy an honorary member of their club, and there’s nothing neutral about that club. Not that “neutral” even exists outside of the mind palace of radical centrists.

English language Wikipedia is a US psyop. I wonder how much Atlanticist propaganda gets stuffed into other languages’ Wikipedias.

If nothing else does, may this administration’s incompetence save Venezuela.

Please strip the “r=xxxxx”tracking parameter from Substack URLs in the future.

Captain Kirk (William Shatner) and Spock (Leonard Nimoy) find that Dr. Adams has been making use of a torturous hypnosis device that can aggressively rip content out of people’s brains, leaving them in his thrall. A man named Dr. Simon van Gelder (Morgan Woodward) knew about Dr. Adams’ secret, but was unable to speak it aloud, as he has undergone brainwashing.

“Brainwashing” was a CIA cold war psyop.

The True Story of Brainwashing and How It Shaped America

“Here, then, is the brief history of brainwashing,” [Timothy] Melley writes in a 2011 paper for Grey Room. “The concept began as an [O]rientalist propaganda fiction created by the CIA to mobilize domestic support for a massive military build-up. This fiction proved so effective that the CIA’s operations directorate believed it and began a furious search for a real mind control weapon. The search resulted not in a miraculous new weapon but a program of simulated brainwashing designed as a prophylactic against enemy mistreatment. This simulation in turn became the real basis for interrogating detainees in the war on terror.”

USA OUT OF THE GULF OF AMERICA!

Dehumanizing one’s target is a fascist’s first step on the path to the gas chambers.

Apparently socialists (particularly communists) and progressive liberals aren’t white. From the very beginning of the introduction:

This is not a book about communist ideology. You’ve read those. This is a book about the communist reality—and how to tell when it’s coming to a society near you.

History does not repeat, but it rhymes. For as long as there have been beauty and truth, love and life, there have also been the ugly liars who hate and kill. This is the way of things in all things. There is light and there is dark. Always has been. Always will be. Civilization is the superstructure built on law and order that keeps the petty, the resentful, and the cruel away from the rest of us. Some societies have been better at this than others. Those who fail at repelling the repulsive fall to unhumanity—to a state of affairs in which human thriving is impossible and surviving improbable.

It doesn’t matter what you call these the people of anti-civilization. They will change their name, shape, and form as needed and for their own purposes in their unique time and place. For the last couple centuries, we’ve known them as communists. Socialists, with extra steps. And of course, leftists. Radicals and revolutionaries as well. A hundred years ago, Marxist Leninists, then more recently, Cultural Marxists. Even as, without irony and not as a joke, “progressives.” For the purposes of this book, we will call them the unhumans. This is a book about unhumans, and this is what they do: With power, unhumans undo civilization itself. They undo order. They undo the basic bonds of society that make communities and nations possible. They destroy the human rights of life, liberty, and property—and undo their own humanity in the process by fully embracing nihilism, cynicism, and envy.

As usual, first they came for the Communists.
