The PRC should not have collaborated with the US, but they would've been dragged down with the Soviet Union had the split not occurred. The PRC wasn't the only country to split with the Soviet Union. Yugoslavia and Albania are two other examples.

All white male sexpats in the Global South are sexpats until proven otherwise.

The US is overextended and is trying to remedy this by simultaneously retreating from frontiers and consolidating its backyard. This is how the US is simultaneously being pushed out of Africa while tightening its grip in Latin America. The US can't hold onto both Africa and Latin America in its current state, so it makes the unfortunately wise decision of letting go of Africa while tightening its grip of Latin America. You can see a similar dynamic between East Asia and West Asia. Of course, this is only a strategic retreat. The US still has ambitions of global hegemony. Like all weakened entity, it will rebuild itself and bid its time until the opportune time to strike back.

The US is (probably) not going to formally annex Greenland for these two reasons:

  1. Denmark is already a US vassal

  2. The US already has a military base in Greenland

Still didn't stop that sexpat Aussie from showing his ass lol

The easiest tell that Euros won't do shit and do as they're told is the fact that buying Chinese or Iranian weapons, let along Russian weapons, doesn't even cross their minds. With a thoroughly deindustrialized economy, by what means are they going to throw out the Burgerlanders?

So they'll continue to buy US weapons, and they'll do as they're told like good little vassals.

They Suffered under Pontius Pilate: Jewish Anti-Roman Resistance and the Crosses at Golgotha. Fernando Rubio, 2023. This one takes a look in detail at the Gospels' stories, arguing 1) Jesus was arrested, tried and executed by the Romans for rebellion, not the Jewish priesthood for blasthemy; 2) the early christians transformed his fellow martyrs, on his right and left, into bandits to dissociate their movement from rebellion; 3) the focus on Jesus and his divinity is a complete departure from his teachings which; 4) replace the actual socioeconomic sufferingsof the period and his parables with focus on the spiritual sufferings (e.g. transformation of "blessed are the poor" to "blessed are the poor in spirit")

I've been exposed to this argument before, and it has profoundly changed how I read the Gospels. The cracks that break it all down are two very single observations:

  1. The Romans by all objective accounts were the Christkillers, not Jews. It was the Romans who scourged Christ, it was the Romans who drove the nails into his body, and it was the Romans who almost ran a spear through his body in order to hasten his death.

  2. Despite the objective fact that the title of Christkiller should be placed upon the collective heads of the Romans, do the received Gospels actively portray the Romans as Christkillers or do they try to obfuscate this objective fact?

A lot of the parables and events also make more sense when you remember that Judea is being occupied by Rome. Jesus chasing out the tax collectors was him decolonizing a temple by throwing out Roman collaborators. Jesus telling the young rich man he's not going to heaven is basically him telling off some Roman collaborator who got rich out of selling out his fellow Judean. Judas was the ancient equivalent of a Palestinian working with Mossad for money.

Seeing all that has transpired in the last 5 years just makes you appreciate the WPK that much more.

Believing in self-determination of Taiwan is calling it what the Portuguese called it.

Cornman says a lot of things, but he still withdrew missiles from Cuba in the end.

Adventurism is worse than organized violence but better than doing nothing. The real question is whether adventurism is better than organized nonviolence. You're not going to take down the war machine by killing randos, but you're also not going to take down the war machine through peaceful marches either. Which is less effective, killing cogs that are easily replaceable or holding protests that can be easily ignored?

The news mega mentioned 4 people:

  • Maduro
  • VP Delcy Rodriguez
  • Minister of the Interior Diosdado Cabello
  • Minister of Defense Vladimir Padrino Lopez

The three after Maduro are important because they would be the ones to replace him should he be killed. NATOpedia posted fake news that Lopez got killed because apparently his house got hit.

 

People throughout the world are delighted by Santa Claus, a jolly old man who distributes presents to good kids. But little do people know that this is a culmination of machinations by the CIA spanning decades to rehabilitate a man charged with war crimes and drug trafficking.

Santa Claus is the latest nom de guerre of Hans Klaus. While Klaus's early life is shrouded in mystery due to subsequent coverup by the CIA, Klaus was believed to be born in Germany during the 1900s where he quickly joined the Nazi Party as an industrialist manufacturing coke-infused carbonated beverages for the SS. Proudly touted as the youngest industrialist to employ concentration camp slave labor, Herr Klaus had his first setback when the Red Army destroyed his factories in Nazi-occupied Europe.

US intelligence, fearing that the secrets of coke-infused beverages would fall to the Soviets, quickly ferried Klaus to the US under Operation Paperclip. There, Klaus would adopt the first of many pseudonyms. His pseudonym while living in the US was believed to be Nikolai Petrovich. Klaus, posing as a Soviet dissident, would have his first taste in producing propaganda, which he would put into great use later in his life when suspicions of being behind the JFK assassination begin to hound him.

While being part of an operation to set up a reconnaissance base in the North Pole to spy on the Soviets, the CIA-led time discovered a secret society of elves. The CIA wasted no time in staging a coup to overthrow the elven government. Klaus was selected to rule over the elves as a puppet leader on behalf of the CIA. Leveraging Klaus's previous experience in making coke beverages and employing slave labor, the elves were forced into slavery where they begin making cocaine. The quality of elf cocaine proved to be legendary and within a decade, Klaus has his grubby hands in almost every single major drug trafficking operation in the world.

One of the biggest misconceptions is that Klaus lives in the North Pole when his main base of operations is really in Argentina. Using connections from the Nazi diaspora living there. Klaus began building what would become a virtually impregnable fortress in Argentina. The drug lord fortress, fit for a drug lord king like Klaus, is rumored to include a nuclear bunker and houses an entire regiment of Klaus's private army.

Klaus eventually adopted the name and identity "Santa Claus" after the assassination of JFK. While definite connections between Klaus and the assassination of JFK are still murky, rumors swirl of Klaus being the mastermind behind the JFK assassination after scholars discover a previously undiscovered recording where JFK clearly stressed the need to begin an offensive against Christmas. It is believed Klaus adopted the Santa Claus persona in an attempt to simultaneously rehabilitate the image of Christmas and to stimulate the US domestic economy through Christmas-induced consumerism.
