The Long-Term Machiavellian Plan
NATO military convoy in Eastern Europe The long-term policy of the Machiavellians of the American Empire is to create a new map of the non-Western world that is like the Middle Ages—they want to break up all large non-Western countries into small entities which will keep warring with each other on religious, ethnic, and economic grounds. They think that they will be able to play the small entities against each other and extract economic and geopolitical advantages from them.

Where Is The Best Place To Survive A Nuclear War In The U.S.?
*Newsweek*: *Best Place to Survive Nuclear War in the U.S.* In the wake of President Biden's mention of nuclear "armageddon", and Elon Musk tweeting that "nuclear war probability is rising rapidly," it is natural that people have pondered online what they would do, and where they would shelter, in the event of a nuclear war.

Indigenous Peoples’ Day: A Call To Higher Consciousness
Indigenous Peoples’ Day is a call to higher consciousness, and it is one that is not solely defined by human beings but emerges from the original instructions of what the Lakota people also call wotakuye (relations with all life).

In contrast, the settler-colonial was taught that Unci Maka (Grandmother Earth) was property and meant for exploitation and one’s capitalist ambitions. However, it is time for the... read more

Will Biden’s War Deliver Humanity’s Very Last October Surprise?
President Biden’s claim about approaching nuclear Armageddon at a New York City fundraiser on October 6th has produced a flurry of commentary which uniformly misdiagnoses the problem. Delusional Joe asserted that we are closer to nuclear annihilation than at any time since the Cuban missile crisis in 1962 and that he was trying to find, “Putin’s off-ramp.” He went on to insinuate that if a nuclear holocaust occurred it was because of Donald Trump and the mess Trump created in foreign policy. This post will elaborate the actual reality of what is going on in Ukraine, the rising o... read more

Russia, Having ‘Run Out Of Missiles’, Launches Barrage On Ukraine
Back in March I had warned that Lies Do Not Win Wars. Here is another practical example. After allegedly having 'run out of missiles' and, more importantly, patience, the leadership of the Russian Federation decided to de-electrify Ukrainian cities with a 'barrage of missile strikes'. But first came the propaganda blubber. Then a warning: 'We Haven't Started Yet,' Putin Says in Hawkish Speech on Ukraine Invasion - Haaretz - Jul 7, 2022 President Vladimir Putin said on Thursday that Russia had barely got started in Ukraine and dared the West to try to defeat it on the battlefield... read more
Michael Hudson: A Roadmap To Escape The West’s Stranglehold
It is impossible to track the geoeconomic turbulence inherent to the “birth pangs” of the multipolar world without the insights of Professor Michael Hudson at the University of Missouri, and author of the already seminal The Destiny of Civilization. In his latest essay, Professor Hudson digs deeper into Germany’s suicidal economic/financial policies; their effect on the already falling euro – and hints at some possibilities for fast integrating Eurasia and the Global South as a whole to try to break the Hegemon’s stranglehold. That led to a series of email exchanges, especially ab... read more

Exposing Fascists: Best Practices
This document came out of numerous discussions with anti-fascists across the country. There has been repeated concern among ourselves and our comrades about a culture of anti-fascist activism that views exposing fascists online as the end-all be-all of anti-fascist organizing. Online exposés are one tool of many that anti-fascists use to materially disrupt fascist organizing in our communities. An exposé of a Nazi by itself is meaningless if it does not have a material impact on that fascist, their organizing, or the communities they threaten. Here we address some common stumbling... read more
"The Sky is Falling"
*"The Sky is Falling"* by Jeff Thomas "Governments are in the flimflam business. Pared down to the bare essentials, governments can be very useful in passing and enforcing a small number of very basic laws. These laws should be limited to policing those who would seek to aggress against others, or their property. Governments may also have a value in providing protection from invasion – organizing an army of able-bodied people to address this collective problem, if and when it occurs. And that’s about it. Beyond that, the private sector can, and almost always does, do a better job ... read more

Acquittal For Saved Dying Piglets Sets ‘Right to Rescue’ Precedent
The not-guilty verdict—a landmark decision establishing the legal "right to rescue" distressed animals in need of care—is "the culmination of a more than five-year pursuit that multiple agencies, including the FBI and the Utah attorney general's office," The Intercept's Marina Bolotnikova reported. As Bolotnikova noted, the case "began after the activists published undercover footage revealing gruesome conditions at Smithfield, the nation's largest pork producer," in violation of Utah's 2012 ag-gag law criminalizing the collection of evidence of animal abuse and other illegal act... read more
