I'm half through the book and watched the movie today (which was also great). I wanted to finish the book first but I'm a slow reader lol
October 23, 20231 yr Quote Elon Musk says he’ll give Wikipedia $1B to change name to ‘D–kipedia’ https://nypost.com/2023/10/23/business/elon-musk-says-hell-give-wikipedia-1b-to-change-name-to-d-kipedia/ Elon Musk is awesome
October 24, 20231 yr Almost 8 years ago he made this video. He was correct then, he's correct now. 6 years ago.... 2 years ago .... 18 hours ago.... Imagine leaving your shit-hole country to come to Europe to try and "better" your situation, only to end up making it like the shit-hole place you left. RIP Eurostan

RIP Eurostan Everything was foreseen decades ago... but too many people had their heads buried in the sand and they kept shooting the messengers. I've been living in freaking Paris for years and some people are so drunk on leftist propaganda that it's impossible for rational thinking to enter their brains on these issues.

RIP Eurostan Also, I hate to bring this, but the more I read and try to comprehend the world, the more I believe this: the depreciation of western men is what brought this sh*t upon us. All this weak behaviour (tolerating the trampling of OUR values by barbarians, bending the knee to our enemies, etc.) is typically feminine energy that's deprived of the masculine. In a given society, feminine values can do good IF AND ONLY if there are equally strong masculine values. It turns out that, unlike what feminist propaganda wants us to believe, women do need men (and men do need women). The woke world is the illustration of what unbridled feminine values bring: chaos. BTW, tyranny is the outcome of unbridled masculine values. Balance is the only sustainable way. Our ancestors knew that.
October 25, 20231 yr It's interesting, the situation in Israel seems to have the Ukraine non-interventionists divided. Half of them argue that what is true about Ukraine is also true about Israel: it's not America's problem. The other half are very mad at this. Whilst their new nemesis are pointing out the inconsistency of their position. I kind of agree. I mean, I don't agree with the non-interventionist position for the U.S. (I would argue that there are conflicts it is in their interest to get involved in), but I can see how it is a valid POV for an American. It is however internally inconsistent to argue non-interventionism for one conflict but not for another. You can't have some sort of cafeteria non-interventionism. "America First! Except for X, Y & Z" is not any sort of real non-interventionism/isolationism.

Except for X, Y & Z" is not any sort of real non-interventionism/isolationism. It should be measured with military reality: Currently Ukraine has no chance of winning the war and having a good future and there is more evidence that the war is strengthening Russia than weaking it, and it is intentionally meant to be as long by design. Also Ukraine, European NATO and the US is military incompetent. The only logical thing is to negotiate a termination of the conflict. Israel issue is split, both left and right have people in the pro- and no stance based on whether or not you think Israeli is a war criminal state or if you don't like Muslims. It is also unknown if the Israeli army is capable enough to take over GAZA which is a fortress.
October 25, 20231 yr Right but I have seen many MAGA style accounts suddenly argue the isolationist stance for Israel as well. Whilst I don't necessarily agree, it is a far more internally consistent position to oppose U.S. involvement in both Ukraine and Israel than to say that non-intervention should be the norm except for Israel.

I think the ground invasion if it happens will be limited in scope. I don't believe they will be sending many 10Ks of reservists in there. I don't believe Bibi has the stomach for a conflict that might cost them many men. Far more likely is that they keep on bombing Gaza into oblivion, even if it means killing most of the 1+ million children stuck there.

Nothing about US politics is consistent, it's a deranged mess. There is belief that the US should focus on our own awful problems than engage in endless wars (I believe this too) that has groups in both left and right. It's also a race issue. Conservatives & Liberals have people in both camps. Some conservatives hate Jews more, some conservatives hate Muslims more.
October 25, 20231 yr What is also interesting about the HAMAS offensive is how it is timed with the ending of the Ukraine-NATO counteroffensive. I think this was intentional, and meant to spark a dilemma in the West. At the same time Russian and proxy forces have encircled the fortified city of Advvika these past 3 weeks and yesterday they took the slag hill, meaning that the high ground is largely in Russian hands now.

The European traditional culture is way better than the Middle-Eastern one. Our problem is that our conception of equality of opportunity has been perverted. Now it's "ekwality", a deranged mess that's out of touch with reality.
October 25, 20231 yr ^ Our 18th-20th century values is what made this possible; the so-called patriarchy never existed in the West. It was robust men with strong energy and will, partnering with robust women bringing care and preparing the next generation. The modern values (wokism) are worthless and they are being regarded as deranged by external cultures who think it's ripe for the taking. It's still time for people to wake up and end this madness.

The left has a binary view of the world and they consider that Arabs are eternal victims (which is not only simplistic, but really stupid).
October 25, 20231 yr A lot of the far left activists who support Palestine in the West are demented. Like these "queers for Palestine". The level of mental confusion required to think that "queers" are safer in Palestine than in the US is huge...
October 25, 20231 yr It's illegal to be gay in ALL MUSLIM countries. The only country where homosexuality is legal in the Middle East is... Israel. Those woke "LGBT" lobbies in the West are very very stupid.
