Mine-Resistant And Super Quiet, Sweden's New Blekinge-class Submarine Is Making Waves

Caleb Larson at The National Interest - 1 day ago
*Caleb Larson* *Security, Europe* Saab’s Ghost stealth technology, which stands for Genuine HOlistic STealth, is Saab’s quietest technology ever. *Here's What You Need To Remember: *The Blekinge-class makes use of rubberized mounts and baffles inside the submarine to reduce noise cause by on-board machinery or crew. Additionally, frames within the sub are filled with “acoustic damping plates” that absorb ambient sound from within the submarine. Saab’s Gotland-class recently enjoyed a refit, and is very quiet—the U.S. Navy even leased the first of the class, the *HMS Gotland* fo... more »

Will Russia Save Alexander Lukashenko?

Jennifer Mathers at The National Interest - 1 day ago
*Jennifer Mathers* *Politics, Europe* [image: Reuters] In reality, Putin may be reluctant to rush to aid Lukashenko, especially if another leadership emerges in Minsk that is acceptable to Moscow. Mass protests, strikes and calls for Alexander Lukashenko to step down after a disputed election have raised the prospect that his long grip on power in Belarus may be coming to an end. But Russia’s president, Vladimir Putin, is widely expected to play a decisive role in what happens next in Belarus. Russia’s leaders regard the security of their own state and society as closely bound ... more »

* What is “racism,” and what is “anti-racism”? * This is one of those subjects on which I just see the world completely the opposite from the vision of the current crop of woke progressives. The woke progressive program calls for things like diminished law enforcement, increased state handouts and social service programs, and even “reparations,” as the “anti-racist” remedies for racism. * By contrast, in a. post in April 2019, I wrote that these same sorts of things only provide evidence of: the utter contempt in which the self-anointed elites of our country hold members of minority... more »

The definition of Axiomism

Unknown at The Conservative Socrates - 1 day ago
Here’s a definition of “axiomism” (a term that I have coined): The conviction that the philosophical opinions that I hold (or my favorite philosopher holds) can never be wrong, because my opinions are axioms which do not need to be established through scientific evidence or defended by philosophical arguments and can be accepted as the ultimate facts which are self-evident. In the twentieth century, several philosophical movements contracted the intellectual disease of axiomism.

Inflammation Is What Can Make Coronavirus So Scary

Sheena Cruickshank at The National Interest - 1 day ago
*Sheena Cruickshank* *Coronavirus, * [image: Reuters] A common feature for many patients that get severe COVID is serious lung damage caused by an overly vigorous immune response. The severity of COVID-19 can vary hugely. In some it causes no symptoms at all and in others it’s life threatening, with some people particularly vulnerable to its very severe impacts. The virus disproportionately affects men and people who are older and who have conditions such as diabetes and obesity. In the UK and other western countries, ethnic minorities have also been disproportionately affected. ... more »

Responding To Voter Suppression, Understanding Manipulated Elections

Kevin Zeese at PopularResistance.Org - 1 day ago
Voter suppression in the 2020 election has become a topic of great concern. In reality, voter suppression has been part of US politics since the founding of the country. The oligarchs who wrote the US Constitution enabled voter suppression by not including the right to vote in it and only allowing white male property owners to vote, suppressing the votes of 94 percent of the population. Five of 16 states had white-only voting in 1800 and after 1802, every new state, free or slave, except for Maine banned Black people from voting.
