By Vladimir Golstein, Consortium News There once was a country called Yugoslavia. It was a multi-ethnic, multi-religious federalist country, rather prosperous by Socialist standards, and consisting of proud people who stood up to Adolph Hitler and even Joseph Stalin. There were intermarriages, great food, and great films too. […]
2021: The worst is behind us and things are looking better. 2022: Hold my beer 🍺

By Peter Zeihan on February 24, 2022 Now that the question of a Russian invasion of Ukraine has proven itself not to be a hypothetical, Western governments will be pushed to respond. The United States and its European allies are likely to pursue a sanctions campaign, but this is […]
By Peter Zeihan on February 24, 2022 For those of you who have read my second book, The Absent Superpower, recent events in Ukraine should not come as a surprise. Chapter 6, The Twilight War, lays out how Russian geography and demographic realities would dictate Russian aggression in its […]

By Peter Zeihan on February 24, 2022 Russia has followed through with its months-long threats of invasion of Ukraine.

By Anatoly Karlin Vladimir Putin: “We Are Ready to Show What Real Decommunization Would Mean for Ukraine” Since my article last week predicting the imminent “Regathering of the Russian Lands”, the prospect of a large-scale Russian invasion has gone from ambiguous to extremely likely (90% on Metaculus). Personally, […]
By Eric Levitz, The Intelligencer Blue America is a nation with an ever-shrinking countryside. In 2008, Barack Obama won 875 U.S. counties; in 2020, Joe Biden won 527, thanks largely to the rightward drift of rural jurisdictions. The fact that the Democratic coalition has grown increasingly urban is […]

By Peter Hitchens for The Mail on Sunday We have been utter fools. We have treated Russia with amazing stupidity. Now we pay the price for that. We had the chance to make her an ally, friend and partner. Instead we turned her into an enemy by insulting […]

The data was published by DDoSecrets, an anti-Wikileaks non-profit whose founder has disclosed “work in national security/counter-intelligence.” On February 13th, the […]
This is a very important segment, an interesting illustration of how “trickle-down” propaganda systems work according to the model of “manufacturing consent” described by Noam Chomsky or the “culture industry” described by Max Horkheimer, and which was pioneered by figures like Edward Bernays. It’s also an interesting example […]

Briahna Joy Gray discusses the neoliberal exploitation of the Canadian truckers protest.
Matt Taibbi has a pretty good take and you can cross-reference an undertone in Putin’s speech. Putin plays chess. Putin has to dump his oligarchs. Who do sanctions affect? Oligarchs of course there’s confusion on invasion. But if someone is pushing an envelope to make it look like […]

By Ed West Putin’s ‘historian, here’ talk refers to the Soviet Union’s policy of affirmative action. You know that nations are all just artificial creations, mostly Victorian inventions designed for political purposes? That your loyalty and patriotism is entirely false?

By Caitlin Johnstone I believe that the situation in Ukraine is a crisis created solely by Moscow and that the US power alliance is just an innocent little flower who is being unfairly blamed. I also believe Santa is real, because I am a tiny little child who […]
