DownWithTyranny at DownWithTyranny! - 1 day ago
*by Noah* Leave it to Traitor Don to turn 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue into East Berlin. With his love of all things Russia, it fits. What's next? Guard towers, barbed wire, and landmines? Maybe a giant, 200 foot statue of Dear Leader designed to loom over the White House and everything it once stood for? These things are all part of the authoritarian dictatorship dreams indulged in (and very rapidly becoming horrific reality) by the people who currently infest the White House. Unlike the Saddam Hussein imitator that lives in that house, the picture doesn't lie. This is a monument to ... more »

The Holy Grail

arclein at Terra Forming Terra - 1 day ago
I am reading the SEER by Lars Muhl and I have been getting drops from the other side. Not least the text informs that the neutrino is a thought form. Of course it is and this is an alternate perspective of my so rigorous conceptualization of the Space Time Pendulum or alternately the 3D symbol of the I Ching. Our universe is created as a neutrino thought form or Space Time Pendulum on a 3D manifold for the mathematicians out there. Way more important in terms of spiritual theoretics, I am finally led to link the mythos of the Holy Grail, the Kristos and the physical reality... more »

Should The Indian Navy Have Said 'No' To Aircraft Carriers?

Robert Beckhusen at The National Interest - 1 day ago
*Robert Beckhusen* *Security, * Imagine a scenario in which these carriers go to battle. *Here's What You Need To Remember: *Essentially, this makes Indian carriers’ self-defeating, with the flattops existing primarily to defend themselves from attack rather than taking the fight to their enemy. Carriers are also expensive symbols of national prestige, and it is unlikely the Indian Navy will want to risk losing one, two or all three. Under the circumstances, India’s investment in carriers makes more sense symbolically, and primarily as a way of keeping shipyards busy and shipyard... more »

Thawing Peatlands and Permafrost Pose Serious Dangers to Global Warming

Gustaf Hugelius at The National Interest - 1 day ago
*Gustaf Hugelius* *Environment, * Large areas of perennially frozen (permafrost) peatlands are thawing, causing them to rapidly release the freeze-locked carbon back into the atmosphere as carbon dioxide and methane. Peatlands cover just a few percent of the global land area but they store almost one-quarter of all soil carbon and so play a crucial role in regulating the climate. My colleagues and I have just produced the most accurate map yet of the world’s peatlands – their depth, and how much greenhouse gas they have stored.

As the ships teeter on the verge of white elephant status, could they become relevant again by taking on a new role, that of a stealthy ship killer? The Zumwalt-class destroyers ... more »

The Danger of “Total Liberty”

Unknown at The Conservative Socrates - 1 day ago
Liberty is a good thing, but the demand for total liberty is a conspiracy to push society into nihilism and lawlessness which are usually a prelude to the establishment of a new tyranny. Those who become part of movements which demand total liberty miss one essential feature of liberty: the concept characterizes freedom within the limits of not only human psychology and human body but also the good cultural and political traditions; it does not characterize freedom from everything. No man can ever be so free that he is free of his mental capacities, skills, just obligations, gende... more »

Michael Peck at The National Interest - 1 day ago
*Michael Peck* *Security, * How America won the war. *Here's What You Need To Remember: *As a weapon of war in World War II, the A-bomb was of greater shock than practical value. They were too complex to mass produce in the late 1940s, and by 1945, American and British bombers had pretty much devastated every German and Japanese city worth bombing. The secret of American victory in World War II was quantity and quality. Copious amounts of weapons and equipment that not only overwhelmed and outmatched the Axis arsenal, but helped enable Lend-Lease allies like Britain and Russia ... more »

As a result, the federal government deficit for this fiscal year will be far greater than any since World War II.

*"9 Short Quotes That Changed My Life and Why"* by Ryan Holiday "Like a lot of people, I try to collect words to live by. Most of these words come from reading, but also from conversations, from teachers, and from everyday life. As Seneca, the philosopher and playwright, so eloquently put it: "We should hunt out the helpful pieces of teaching and the spirited and noble-minded sayings which are capable of immediate practical application - not far-fetched or archaic expressions or extravagant metaphors and figures of speech - and learn them so well that words become works."

*WEDNESDAY, AUGUST 12, 2020Also, does this seem like normal journalism?:* We just watched the Biden-Harris event. After that, we watched the entirety of Donald J. Trump's astounding press event. Equally astounding was the press corps' reliable, astounding incompetence. Tomorrow, we'll show you some of the questions they asked. For now, let's go with two peculiar behaviors: At roughly 4:53 PM, right before Biden and Harris appeared, Maria Teresa Kumar made this comment on MSNBC. She was describing press corps behavior in the run-up to the selection of Harris: "The press corps was ... more »
