It's all wishful thinking. It's profitable for commentators and influencers to say that there is an increased number of workers spontaneously destroying their workplaces because it's what people want to hear.

There are thousands of structural fires at industrial sites in the US every year, like at least 10 every day. The nonprofit org below says that there were 1544 warehouse fires in the US between 2020 to 2024 and 7% of them were found to be started intentionally.

In order for there to be a new trend, there would have to be a deviation from the existing statistics.

I said 'literal' antichrist but I should have emphasized it more. Both Dugin and Jiang said they believe that Trump is the biblical version of the antichrist and that the antichrist is trying to cause the biblical end the world. Jiang says that Russia will try to stop the antichrist because Russia is a 'moral' ie christian society but China will not because China is secular and I guess therefore immoral.

Okay about about 80 minutes into the video they start talking about disagreements. They both agree that Trump (or The West) is the literal antichrist. They disagree on whether anyone will try to stop the antichrist. Dugin thinks that other countries will try to stop the antichrist because it's the right thing to do. Jiang thinks that China will not try to stop the antichrist because Chinese people are too comfortable.

Jiang does refer to this video as a debate at the end.

I guess they don't disagree about much but it looks like a debate format. At the start of the video Jiang says that he gets inspiration from reading Dugin's books and then Dugin says that Jiang is the only Chinese academic who understands his works.

The bridge was announced on June 2024. The construction began on April 2025. I check KCNA daily and I haven't seen updates from DPRK lately. It may have been reported by Russia.

The title is a joke because there's a conspiracy theory that Justin Trudeau is the son of Fidel Castro and Katy Perry went on a space tourism trip in 2025.

The mathematical expression he included — ΔO_BSOH>0 ⇒ f(f(O))>f(O) — appears to be a signal that any increase in Hormuz blockade severity produces a compounding, nonlinear spike in oil prices, not a simple one-to-one rise.

This is the explanation from the Drop Site News tweet.

 

For good measure, he surfed around on YouTube for longer, cycling through some viral videos. Among them, the double rainbow video, Deez Nuts and a clip of his viral “it’s not clocking to you” confrontation with the paparazzi.

What about this image says 'not a fed' to you? Both dudes in the image are the same fed archetype. They both seek to discredit legitimate positions by attributing misinformation to those positions. For Alex Jones, this meant discrediting people who did not trust US government narratives by associating those people with more outlandish theories such as satanic rituals. For Jackson Hinkle, this meant discrediting people who were drawn to communism by associating communism with far-right nationalism.

Dr Tine Munk, a cyber warfare expert at Nottingham Trent University, characterises Iran's tactics as "defensive memetic warfare" which the creators see as necessary to combat US rhetoric.

There is an estimated 3000 industrial/factory fires in the US every year. That's like 8 factory fires every day.

The article has a image of the fire damage.

there was a factory fire near my house last week. It was also a complete accident. This shit happens all the time.

This happened 3 days ago and was caused by faulty solar panels catching fire on the rooftop.

This is the same video as on the tweet. It was posted on tiktok 3 days ago. The tweeter claims this happened today. https://www.tiktok.com/@rocio1821/video/7626431313540631839

Remember when the East Palestine Ohio chemical spill train crash happened and then for like a week we everyone was talking about every train crash but also train crashes aren't that uncommon?

Maybe factory fires aren't that rare and most of them are caused by faulty equipment.

Statement from Iran’s Supreme National Security Council

📌 Full Text of the Statement of the Supreme National Security Council (Translated to English):

The enemy has suffered an undeniable, historic, and crushing defeat in its dishonorable, illegal, and criminal war against the Iranian nation. By the grace of the pure and sacred blood of the martyred leader of the Islamic Revolution, His Eminence Grand Ayatollah Imam Khamenei (peace be upon him), the measures of the Supreme Leader of the Islamic Revolution and Commander-in-Chief His Eminence Ayatollah Seyyed Mojtaba Khamenei (may God preserve him), the jihad and valor of the fighters of Islam on the fronts, and above all the historic, enduring, and epic presence of you, the dear nation, from the very first days of the war — Iran has achieved a great victory and forced criminal America to accept its own (Iran’s) 10-point plan, in which America has in principle committed to: guaranteeing non-aggression, continued Iranian control over the Strait of Hormuz, acceptance of enrichment, removal of all primary and secondary sanctions, termination of all UN Security Council and Board of Governors resolutions, payment of reparations to Iran, withdrawal of U.S. combat forces from the region, and cessation of the war on all fronts including against the heroic Islamic Resistance of Lebanon. We congratulate all the people of Iran on this victory and emphasize that until the details of this victory are finalized, steadfastness and prudence from officials and the preservation of unity and solidarity among the Iranian people remain essential.

Islamic Iran, together with the brave mujahideen of the resistance in Lebanon, Iraq, Yemen, and occupied Palestine, has over the past 40 days struck blows against the enemy that the historical memory of the world will never forget. Iran and the Axis of Resistance, as representatives of honor and humanity against the most savage enemies of mankind, have after a historic battle delivered an unforgettable lesson to them and have so thoroughly destroyed their forces, assets, infrastructure, and all political, economic, technological, and military capital that the enemy is now on the verge of collapse and disintegration, and sees no path forward but submission to the will of the great Iranian nation and the honorable Axis of Resistance. On the first day that Iran’s criminal enemies launched this unjust war, they imagined they would achieve full military dominance over Iran in a short time, and by creating political and social instability, force Iran into submission. They assumed Iran’s missile and drone fire would quickly be extinguished, and they did not believe Iran could mount such a powerful response beyond its own borders and across the entire region.

World Zionism had convinced the foolish American president that this war would finish off Iran, and that by eliminating this last bastion of humanity, they could thereafter freely commit any crime against anyone they wished. They dreamed of partitioning beloved Iran, plundering its oil and wealth, and ultimately leaving Iranians submerged in chaos, instability, and insecurity for long years to come.

The brave fighters of Islam and their courageous allies in the Axis of Resistance, though their hearts were wounded and shattered by the martyrdom of their Imam, relying on Almighty God and following the example of the Master of Martyrs, decided once and for all to deliver a historic lesson to these enemies, avenge all their past crimes, and create conditions in which the enemy would forever abandon any thought of aggression against beloved Iran and taste the full bitterness of humiliation and degradation before the great Iranian nation.

With this strategy and relying on an unprecedented political and social unity that had formed within the country, Iran and the Resistance launched one of the heaviest combined battles in history against America and the Zionist regime, and in this period achieved all the objectives that had been designed for this battle. Iran and the Resistance nearly completely destroyed the American military machine in the region, struck devastating and deep blows against the vast infrastructure and assets the enemy had built and deployed around the region over years in preparation for war with Iran, inflicted massive casualties on the criminal American army at a regional level, struck devastating and crushing blows against the enemy’s forces, infrastructure, assets, and holdings within occupied territories, and so thoroughly cornered the enemy on all fronts that not only did none of the enemy’s primary objectives materialize, but the enemy realized from approximately 10 days after the start of the war that it would have no chance of victory, and for this reason began through various channels and methods to seek contact with Iran and request a ceasefire. The noble Iranian nation should know that by virtue of the jihad of their sons and daughters and their own historic presence on the scene, the enemy has for more than a month been pleading for Iran and the Resistance to cease their devastating fire — but the country’s officials, because it was decided from the outset that the war would continue until its objectives were met, including the humiliation and exhaustion of the enemy and the long-term removal of the threat to the country, gave a negative answer to all these requests, and the war continued through today, its fortieth day. Iran has also several times rejected deadlines issued by the American president and continues to emphasize that it attaches no importance to any deadline issued by the enemy.

We now give the glad tidings to the great Iranian nation that virtually all the objectives of the war have been achieved, and your brave sons and daughters have brought the enemy to a historic helplessness and enduring defeat. Iran’s historic decision, which carries the unified backing of the entire nation, is to continue this battle for as long as necessary until its immense gains are consolidated and new security and political equations in the region are established based on acceptance of Iran’s and the Resistance’s power and supremacy.

In this regard, and in accordance with the guidance of the Supreme Leader of the Islamic Revolution, His Eminence Ayatollah Seyyed Mojtaba Khamenei (may God preserve him), and the approval of the Supreme National Security Council, and given Iran’s and the Resistance’s upper hand on the battlefield and the enemy’s inability to carry out its threats despite all its claims, and the formal acceptance of all the rightful demands of the Iranian people — it has been decided that negotiations will be held in Islamabad to finalize the details, so that within a maximum of 15 days, Iran’s victory on the battlefield will also be consolidated in political negotiations.

In this regard, Iran, while rejecting all proposals put forward by the enemy, drafted a 10-point plan and submitted it to the American side through Pakistan, emphasizing the following core points: controlled passage through the Strait of Hormuz in coordination with Iran’s armed forces, which confers a unique economic and geopolitical position on Iran; the necessity of ending the war against all components of the Axis of Resistance, which will signify the historic defeat of the aggression of the child-killing Israeli regime; the withdrawal of U.S. combat forces from all bases and deployment points in the region; the establishment of a safe transit protocol through the Strait of Hormuz guaranteeing Iranian supremacy under an agreed protocol; full payment of reparations to Iran according to assessments; removal of all primary and secondary sanctions and resolutions of the Board of Governors and Security Council; unfreezing of all Iranian assets and funds held abroad; and finally, the adoption of all these items in a binding UN Security Council resolution. It should be noted that the adoption of such a resolution would transform all of these agreements into binding international law and represent a major diplomatic victory for the Iranian nation.

The respected Prime Minister of Pakistan has now informed Iran that the American side, despite all its outward threats, has accepted these principles as the basis for negotiations and has submitted to the will of the Iranian nation. On this basis, it has been decided at the highest level that Iran will conduct negotiations in Islamabad with the American side for two weeks, solely on the basis of these principles. It is emphasized that this does not mean the end of the war — Iran will only accept an end to the war when, given the acceptance of the principles of Iran’s 10-point plan, the details are also finalized in negotiations.

These negotiations will begin with complete distrust of the American side on Friday, 21 Farvardin [April 10], in Islamabad, and Iran has allocated two weeks for these negotiations. This period may be extended by mutual agreement. It is essential that full national unity be maintained during this period and that victory celebrations continue in full force.

The current negotiations are a national negotiation and a continuation of the battlefield, and it is essential that all people, elites, and political groups trust and support this process — which is under the supervision of the Leader of the Revolution and the highest levels of the system — and strictly refrain from any divisive statements. If the enemy’s submission on the battlefield is translated into a decisive political achievement in negotiations, we will celebrate this great historic victory together; otherwise, we will continue to fight side by side on the battlefield until all demands of the Iranian nation are met. Our hands are on the trigger, and the moment the slightest error is made by the enemy, it will be answered with full force.

Supreme National Security Council
19 Farvardin 1405 [April 8, 2026]

🚨 US PRESIDENT TRUMP: “I agree to suspend the bombing and attack of Iran for a period of two weeks” – a “double sided CEASEFIRE.”

🔸Trump says he will pause planned strikes on Iran for two weeks after talks with Pakistan’s leadership, conditioning the move on Tehran reopening the Strait of Hormuz.
▫️The pause is contingent on the “COMPLETE, IMMEDIATE, and SAFE OPENING of the Strait of Hormuz.”

🔸Trump claims the U.S. has “met and exceeded all Military objectives.”

🔸Says a “10 point proposal from Iran” is now a “workable basis” for a broader deal.

🔸Adds the sides are “very far along with a definitive Agreement” on long-term peace.

🔸He described the two-week window as time to “finalize and consummate” a wider agreement to end the war.
