THREE POLITICAL AXES MORE USEFUL THAN LEFT VS. RIGHT
Mainstream political discourse is hopelessly divided into the two poorly-defined camps of "Left" and "Right".
Leftists believe they’re the good and nice people against the evil and nasty rightists.
Rightists believe they’re the good and tough people against the evil and weak leftists.
The truth is that both sides are fuckwits.
The left vs. right axis is bullshit anyway – it’s completely arbitrary.
Leftists claim to be for the working class, then dump hordes of violent refugees into working-class neighbourhoods.
Rightists claim to be conservatives, but have conserved nothing, being more than happy to sell their descendants’ inheritance at discount price.
The truth is that there is a multitude of different axes upon which we can divide people’s political attitudes.
The left vs. right axis has been subject to so many lies over the decades that talking about it no longer conveys any useful information.
But there are at least three political axes that are still useful.
First:
Mainstream academia likes to pretend that there’s no such thing as left-wing authoritarianism.
Anyone who has read The Gulag Archipelago knows, this is bullshit.
Left-wingers are more than happy to dictate how others are allowed to live, as evidenced by the creeping spread of cancel culture.
Right-wing authoritarians exist, of course, in the form of theocrats, and centrist ones exist in the form of Nazis.
But fighting against one or two of the three kinds, while ignoring the malice of the others, is foolish.
All that can be achieved by such an approach is to let authoritarianism in through the backdoor.
George Orwell summarised this insight best when he wrote :
“The real division is not between conservatives and revolutionaries but between authoritarians and libertarians.”
As a simple comparison of the American Revolution versus the French and Russian ones makes clear, libertarian revolutions tend to go much better than authoritarian ones.

Ukrainian-style press freedom – accreditation in return for favorable image
Such a deal was offered to award-winning journalist Matilde Kimer, who has been working at the Danish Broadcasting Corporation, after she was labeled “pro-Russian” for posting photos taken in Russia and her press credential in Ukraine was removed
On August 22, the Danish reporter received an e-mail from the press department of the Ukrainian Armed Forces, in which she was told that her accreditation had been canceled “in accordance with the request of the Security Service of Ukraine (SBU)”
But as it turned out this was just the beginning! During the meeting at the SBU HQ on December 8, an officer named Oleg, among other things, suggested Ms. Kimer to make “good stories about Ukraine” in exchange for the return of accreditation and use some internal SBU documents that could help to compose such creatives

FTX FOUNDER SAM BANKMAN FRIED'S (#SBF) INCREDIBLE SHRINKING "$250 MILLION BAIL BOND"
Media outlets all around the globe reported that #FTX #ponzi scheme founder #SamBankmanFried (#SBF)got out of jail by posting a gargantuan, unprecedented “$250 million bond.”
In court, Assistant U.S. Attorney Nicholas Roos described it as the “largest ever” pretrial bond.
But, as it turns out, there is less than meets the eye in this “$250 million bond.”
In fact, a lot less.......
Bankman-Fried’s parents promised to pledge as collateral their Palo Alto, California, home, where he'll also be staying under house arrest.
The Palo Alto home is rumored to be worth $4 million.
And that is the full extent of the collateral pledged to guarantee the $250 million bond.
No other collateral was posted or promised.
So where did that $250 million figure come from?
Great question.
In this case, Bankman-Fried was not required to post a conventional bail bond. Instead, Bankman-Fried was simply released from custody on something called a personal recognizance bond.
The personal recognizance bond contains Bankman-Fried’s solemn promise (and his parents’ promise) to pay the court $250 million if he fails to show up for trial at the appointed time.
Yes, you read that correctly: Bankman-Fried walked out of court essentially a free man by signing a piece of paper where he promised to pay the court $250 million if he decides to flee to another country with no extradition.
This, of course, is totally absurd.......

Nasty #German "health" minister Karl #Lauterbach, says he wants #climate #lockdowns using #covid lockdowns as a model.
Then he says "it's all a conspiracy theory!" 😂
It should be obvious by now that the current Red-Green German Gov't is determined to find grounds for instigating another series of lockdowns and don't care what reasoning they use.
The lockdowns are clearly the goal here, not "safety from covid" nor "saving the climate."
Social control is clearly their goal, not "safety".
The German Elite know that waves of protest and social unrest are inevitable once the full effect of their stupid and suicidal #economic, #energy and foreign/#military policies are felt by the German people.
Those polices can only lead to #recession, rising #unemployment and #poverty.
They are preparing the populace for the #German Gov'ts planned authoritarian response to widespread dissatisfaction with their disastrous policies.

KIEV’S WESTERN PARTNER POLAND CONTINUES TO PREPARE FOR WAR.
Polish authorities have recently announced the voluntary recruitment of citizens to “train them in military affairs.”
Today, even children 15 years old can learn to shoot, throw grenades, and survive in difficult conditions.
Earlier the Ministry of National Defense of Poland announced large-scale military exercises in the spring of 2023, to which they plan to attract up to 200 thousand military reservists who will take the oath after they pass the courses.

"Many residents are hurriedly leaving the country in an attempt to avoid mobilization.
Columns of cars have already been spotted on the border with Germany."
