Wow, sorry to hear that. Wish you a speedy recovery.
Going through the news without your curation is just not the same, I’m glad you’re back, but take your time.
I’ll make a donation which I haven’t done in a long time.
It’s hard to imagine that Blinken and Jake Sullivan and Nuland and Bolton had no idea this would happen.
I’m pretty sure they had no idea this would happen, the US has been messing with countries all over the world going unpunished for decades.
They already control the counting of the votes anyway, locking him up just adds more redudancy just in case (0.000001% chance?) they get busted rigging the votes.
I have not voted for any of them, ofc I can claim innocence. At the end of the day, if it’s not my family or friends I don’t really care, I wish it wasn’t so but I’m no losing sleep over it.
If complete extermination of ukrainians is what it takes to end US hegemony, so be it.
Just donated 100€. I’ve been reading TAE for 10 years already, never donated before, I’m sorry for that, you have enlightened me on many topics.
I disagree, Ukraine has not been demilitarised enough yet. A peace deal now brings thinks back to where they were with the exception that the Donbass would no longer be under attack. Ukraine has to be dwarfed to such an extent that the US gets their hands off the country, only then can there be lasting peace.
Lauded economist Steve Keen has only now learned how the fractional reserve system works and we’re talking about one of the least indoctrinated economists out there.
Yes, the principal is destroyed upon repayment, but not the interest, which means there is more debt than money in the world and if you try to pay all debt, you will run out of money and there still will be debt left to pay. It’s a negative sum game.
People don’t realise how big of a sham the field of Economics is.
“In the US, the CDC just sneakily added ivermectin to its list of covid cures very recenty, would you believe it.”
Where are you seeing that Raúl? I can’t find it.
@Fattigmann you’re nitpicking on semantics. Just replace ‘invented’ by ‘discovered’ in my sentence then. That’s what I meant, morals were discovered from experience on what works and what does not work well for the community.
Dr. D said “… and why it seems only religion provides one”, that’s the point I was disputing.
Moral codes are invented by men, whether in religious context or not, and are based on experience of what leads to a healthy and stable society.
Just because Sam Harris has no morals, doesn’t mean atheism leads to lack of morals. Maybe they’re even stronger. How do I know you religious people actually have morals and are not simply afraid to disobey God?
You have to practical about abortion, it’s a matter of public health. It’s better for women to do it in a licensed facility which have to abide by safety standards than for them to fund illegal activity.
Sure, no need to go as far as 3rd trimester unless there’s serious health problems at stake.
De-criminalisation of abortion leads to less abortions because there is a period of reflection and the women are followed by a psychologist.
The only problem I have is that the father is not allowed to deny the abortion.
I grew up in the 90s. We had the best of both worlds: quality videogames and playing on the streets.

How is a ‘virus’ with a .00189% worldwide death rate over 2 FUCKING YEARS! even news????How do you get this figure? Based on worldometer I get 2.13% case closed fatality rate.
Anything less than physically forcing people to get the vaccine I can live with. If I have to go to prison, so be it.
“China Gets Half A Million Barrels Of Iranian Oil Every Day, Violating US Sanctions As Biden Looks The Other Way”
That’s how every other nation should deal with US: “shove your sanctions up your arse!”
Sadists take pleasure from inflicting pain. Do you have evidence to suggest this, Raúl?
Are mice lesser beings?
The Power is in the System, but it is a System of People. 😉
The system, being the whole, has the biggest mass, thus, the biggest inertia, it takes way more energy to change the trajectory of the system than to change the trajectory of one individual. How many individuals need to change trajectory for the trajectory of the system to change too? I guess that depends on the inner product of their trajectories.
The pro-covaxxers have the army and police on their side, how could anti-covaxxers win such a war? Do you expect significant dissidence in those arms of the government?
I’ve only read a few pages so far, but I can’t emphasise enough how educational and important is the info contained in the Spartacus Letter.
Nice find Raúl.
Long-term injury I only know of my mother who had joint pain (in all joints) following the first dose of AstraZeneca. After a few months she went to a rheumatologist and is now taking medication. Her health improved only about 1 month ago, she was jabbed in February.
Imo, the spike proteins caused an inflammation in her joints. I wish I knew then what I know now, I would have strongly advised her against taking the vaccine but at the time I simply didn’t know. I won’t let her take a booster shot, that’s for sure.
I’m glad I followed the precautionary principle and waited for real world data to reveal the truth.
“Under a “climate lockdown,” governments would limit private-vehicle use, ban consumption of red meat, and impose extreme energy-saving measures, while fossil-fuel companies would have to stop drilling.”
That actually sounds good to me.
PCR may be overdiagnosing but the trends and the admissions to hospital remain the same. Shave off positive cases by 50% or 60%, as setting the PCR threshold to 30 cycles would do, policies wouldn’t change because of that, the virus is nonetheless very dangerous.
While the Russian doctors who initially treated Navalny after he fell ill on a flight from Tomsk to Omsk (or was that the other way around?!) said he showed zero signs of poisoning. But yeah, they’re Russians, so they can’t be trusted, right? They all squander their Hippocratic oaths at the feet of the great malevolent dictator Putin.
Can’t the same argument be made about the german doctors? Someone is lying but we can’t tell which side at this point.
Our spooks invent Skripal and MH17 and Navalny and Russia collusion and prostitutes peeing on beds in Moscow.
Just because there is enough evidence to say Putin is not behind Skripal and MH17, it doesn’t mean he’s not behind Navalny’s murder or scare attempt. It doesn’t mean the opposite either.
Gotta think like a scientist, Ilargi, be open to all possibilities.
Nice essay, nonetheless, your main points are correct.
What did I miss? I thought the conspiracy theory was that he was poisoned.
The conspiracy theory is that the Russian State – controlled by Putin – poisoned Navalny and the doctors at the Omsk hospital lied about not finding poison and saying the probable cause was carbohydrate deficiency.
I don’t have a stance on this, I’m just saying that trying to debunk the theory by arguing that an attempt to kill someone by giving something that causes hypoglycemia is stupid, is not relevant, because according to the theory this part is not true in the first place. Or it may be true, but being only a secondary effect, or it was the main effect but Putin only wanted to give Navalny a scare and not actually kill him.
I always feel conspiracy theory debunkers have a huge lack of imagination.
I am not aware of any medication or poison that rapidly lowers the blood sugar level and can be applied secretly. It would also be stupid to use such in an attempt to kill someone as the attacked person simply has to eat something to negate the effect.
I don’t know what happened to Navalny but this line of reasoning makes no sense. The conspiracy theory* involves the Russians doctors lying about the diagnostic. One who believes Navalny was poisoned does not believe he had a diabetic shock.
*note: conspiracy theory is a neutral term to me, I don’t mean to say something has no credibility when I label it conspiracy theory like so many people do. I believe in several cp’s, btw.
