≈ Comments Off on Equality They May Not Like

The leader of the free world laid down six principles for a new new world order.
Last but not least, international cooperation should be based on the principle of sovereign equality. “The peculiarity of the modern world, closely connected and integral, lies precisely in the fact that states that are not the most powerful, large, often play an even greater role than giants. They are capable of more rationally and purposefully using their human, intellectual, natural and ecological potential, flexibly and reasonably approaching the solution of complex issues, setting high standards in the quality of life, in ethics, in the effectiveness of management, in creating opportunities for self-realization of each, in the formation of conditions, a favorable psychological atmosphere in society for the rise of science, entrepreneurship, art, creativity, revealing the talent of youth”. Putin defends equality saying that a country’s might does not depend only on its “hard power”, that is military or economy. All countries can learn something from each other and this equal exchange should be the cornerstone of the future world order.
All in all, this speech should be analyzed by Western thinkers, as it serves as one of the most important manifestos of the Russian government in years. It addresses various issues in developing relations with the West as well as the Global South. These days, Russia plays a key part in forming what we call the future world order.
Wouldn’t want to deny equality to Africans, Palestinians, or Southern Americans, would you?

Walt Garlington did an outstanding job examining how real Christians view or should view the latest fake electoral nonsense in the dying, wicked GAE.
Many people in the States and around the world are breathing a sigh of relief over Trump’s election. Yet electing post-liberal/illiberal strongmen like Donald Trump will only help the peoples of the States so much. The underlying ideology of the American experiment remains their main problem. Until they overcome their idolatrous obsession with individual liberty, and their denigration of Christianity (particularly the Orthodox Church), they will continue to slide inexorably into disorder and decline.
And they will drag as much of the world as possible down with them as they go.
And by “underlying ideology” Walt does not mean derp! derp! mah liberalz…
Meanwhile, in a functioning Christian nation, the Duma is moving along a bill to outlaw the society-killing idiocy of the “child-free” lifestyle.
Russia’s State Duma (lower house of parliament) has passed the third reading of a bill banning the public promotion of a child-free way of life.
The document was submitted to the State Duma in September by a group of legislators and senators led by the chairs of both houses, Valentina Matviyenko and Vyacheslav Volodin.
The legislation stipulates preventing the distribution of information promoting voluntary childlessness online, through the media, movies and advertisements.
Given his 100% success rate in building a wall, locking up Killary, and draining the swamp, maybe Trumpstein can look into something similar fer ‘Murika!

Professor Dugin calls for a revised media code for the advancing Sovereign world.
During the “Unified Cultural Media Code and Transnational Media Projects” session at the CIS forum “Media Development in a Changing World,” Dugin stated that, in his view, the CIS countries currently lack a unified media code, though one is necessary.
“So let us, colleagues, journalists from all our CIS countries, Eurasian Union states, and friendly republics, draw not only from the past but also from the future. Let’s create this unified cultural media code of ours,” the philosopher said at the media forum at the “Russia Today” multimedia international press center.
Being from a totally failed part of the world, and ever a media outsider, myself, I’m not sure exactly what he’s after, though as with many of his ideas, I appreciate the direction. Literally anything would beat the current Western system of lazily taking copy from intel agencies or artificial stupidity bots.
In related news, Alexander Markovics has a new review of Dugin’s book Politica Aeterna. I will, soon, have something similar of my own. Stay tuned.

Many people I greatly respect are holding onto various degrees of hope regarding the (s)elction of Orange Man 2.0. That’s good in and of itself. These are generally men in the 3-4+ SD IQ range, so theirs’ are not random, stupid opinions. If Trump is allowed to take office – not a small if, methinks – then, during his first week back in office we should have a good idea of what he will or won’t do. We have no choice but to wait anyway. Other than that, I have little else to say about the matter, or about the GAE, generally.
There will be no column again this week. No, I haven’t quit, though I will probably be cutting back some. What I’s a been doin'(!) is ritin’ me a new romance novel. This will be unlike any of my ordinary madness. And the whole thing came to me like a hurricane. In less than 3 weeks, I’ve pounded out nearly 50K words of what I think will be a 75-80Kish book. It isn’t writing itself, but it’s pretty close. I may be having more fun with this one than any of the others. More on that later, and, please, go ahead and ready the credit card$. (Может быть, и в России тоже!)

‘Murikans are saved now! Yee-haw!!! Who’d a thunk that all it took was another rigged, fake election??? Just kidding. No, I didn’t pay attention to the idiocy yesterday, and I couldn’t care less about a dead nation and people who given in and given up. That’s pretty much the rest of the world’s opinion of the GAE. Belgrade’s Bobana M. Andjelkovic wrote a short, overly-kind lay of the ‘Murikan land that sums it up well.
Meanwhile in the United States:
• current president Joseph Biden is senile and demented paedophile, but still did not forget to warmonger worldwide;
• current VP and presidential candidate Kamala Harris is completely clueless and completely out of order;
• the other presidential candidate and former US president Donald Trump got a film role of an incidental superhero in this turn, who runs huge construction business, keeps avoiding film style assassination attempts at rallies, drives garbage truck, works in a fast-food place (which does not make food, but poison looking like food);
• there have been small internal wars among US’ citizens for many years now, at various social layers and among various social groups;
• there are multiple social crises, from housing and health to financial, opioid;
• military lacks conscripts and skilled staff, veterans are homeless and suicidal;
• entertainment industry from Hollywood to pop culture, closely connected to political establishment, is falling apart under the accusations of being involved in very sick and horrendous activities;
• religious freedoms now apply only to satanists and other sectarians;
• big fires across US (both in residential and industrial areas) accompanied with air pollution, floods, plane crashes, unions’ strikes, massive ODs, medical engineering, sick climate agenda;
• official enforcement of insane language;
• media circus which consistently avoids real world;
• internet info overloads, dark web and cyber war against Common Sense;
• etc…
The “etc…” encompasses many an eye roll about all that the GAE has become.
In better news, for me, the great fiction fest of fall, 2024 continues. I may or may not muster a short column about something later this week. But what I have done, in the space of about two weeks, is draft about half of a new romance novel, something completely different from my usual stuff. More about that later.

≈ Comments Off on Unable to Write is “Bad”
Yes. Vox and (the other) Paul Graham make some interesting observations about Artificial Idiocy and the real thing.
“I’m usually reluctant to make predictions about technology, but I feel fairly confident about this one: in a couple decades there won’t be many people who can write,” Graham said.
It’s common for skills to disappear as technologies replace them; after all, “there aren’t many blacksmiths left, and it doesn’t seem to be a problem,” he admitted. But people being unable to write is “bad,” he insisted.
“A world divided into writes and write-nots is more dangerous than it sounds. It will be a world of thinks and think-nots,” Graham believes.
We already live in a world that is mostly inhabited by think-nots. Hence MPAI. And there is no reason to fear AI writing, since very few writers produce anything worth reading anyhow. Between Twitter and Facebook, we know that all the erudite theories about “unlocking human potential” were groundless fantasies, since we have conclusive evidence that most people have absolutely nothing to say.
I did a trial test of one AI program and found it so unremarkable that I haven’t mentioned it or thought about it since. So in a way, it is like the ordinary moron, I suppose.
Speaking of writing, things have been a tad light here and with columns for a few reasons. High among them is an onslaught of new fiction! More, later.
PS: Happy Guy Fawkes day!

A few items that illustrate the fall.
Dmitry Medvedev continues to notice.
Washington and its allies accuse the members of those groups of “violating the rules-based order,” but, at same time, cannot explain what this order is,” he said.
“I have carefully picked through the legal text and studied it: it is incomprehensible. It is not clear what the order is and who approved it. It is really just an idea of the US and its allies, while mostly in NATO, of how best to do business in the world,” the former president stressed.
According to Medvedev, the rules-based order is actually what the West believes “is right,” adding that “once you are out of this order, you’re a perpetrator.”
The uni-polar world that the US is trying to preserve is “always prone to war and unfortunately results in conflicts,” he said. Meanwhile, the multi-polar system that Russia and other BRICS members are working to build “implies making a connection between different poles” and creating “a world in balance [that] is always relatively stable,” he explained.
See his interview with RT.
Elsewhere, even Carlos Slim’s Blog has to adjust the narrative to fit reality in re Ukraine. Adding to the chaos, the GAE discovers that more and more people don’t care about the “rules-based” coercion.
In Mordor, Matt Miller and Co. are having a hard time explaining the media genocide within the Palestinian genocide. Also in West Asia, a couple of ancient B-52 Stratotargets won’t help when Iran delivers the promised “teeth-breaking” response to the last unlawful attacks.
But I’m sure Kamala Trump has already covered all of this to the satisfaction of the ‘Murikan collective brain trust.
PS: Daylight Savings Time has ended. I think it has ended for me permanently. Come spring, I’ll leave the fake farmers and bird watchers to do their clock thing.

≈ Comments Off on Clearly Identifiable Patterns of Violence
Happy All Saints Day. One Saint, Michael the Archangel is needed rather urgently in Palestine and surrounding areas due to the yankee-zionist genocide in progress. The situation is so dire that even the UN, as useless a body as ever devised, sees a massive problem. Please read their new Report on the Gazacaust.
While the scale and nature of the ongoing Israeli assault against the Palestinians
vary by area, the totality of the Israeli acts of destruction directed against the totality of the Palestinian people, with the aim of conquering the totality of the land of Palestine, is clearly identifiable. Patterns of violence against the group as a whole warrant the application of the Convention on the Prevention and Punishment of the Crime of Genocide (Genocide Convention) in order to cease, prevent and punish genocide in the whole of the occupied Palestinian territory.
At this point, the only people on earth who don’t see what’s happening are Satanyahu and Co., the US political trash, US media, and the retarded heathen ‘Murican people.
There will be no column or essay this week.
