I kinda share Karlin’s opinion on religious obscurantism of the radical Islamists of Hezbollah. I kinda don’t like their asses. But Israel is kind of traditional as well. For instance, only religious marriage is called marriage in the Israeli legal code.
Traditional religion is superior from an evolutionary standpoint to the gay progressivism espoused by Karlin. In Israel, Orthodox Jews have more children than secular Pride celebrating faggots in Tel Aviv. So clearly, traditional values are winning even in Israel.
The future belongs to traditional values, and not childless cat ladies and big gay.

European dialogues of Václav Havel
Europe in the midst of a clash of two Worlds
Václav Havel has been all his life used to posing uncomfortable questions. One of them was the thought about where Europe begins and where it ends. Connected to this thought is the question where does Russia begin and where does it end? Instead of gradually approaching democratic and European norms, Russia has taken the opposite route and has cause a bloodshed on the Eastern flank of Europe that threatens the results of a 75 years of peace. European values and the Russian world have been pitted against each other and are in an uncompromising controversy. The future of the whole continent, not just the independence of Ukraine hinges on the outcome of this conflict.

I have discussed this anxiety over the outcome of the Ukrainian conflict here before. Václav Havel was an alcoholic cretin that was voted into office by a communist parliament to cover for the latter’s transfer of power. Velvet Revolution was completely under the direction of the STB. After the transfer of power, Václav Havel supported America in every nastiness the latter did. He called the bombing of Serbia “humanitarian”, and criticized Russia for not going along with it.
Note the vague and absolutely empty concepts such as “European values” and “Russian World”. What the fuck do they mean? Aren’t these just propaganda slogans, ideology brands, designed to appeal to certain segments of the population in the EU and Russia?
In other news:
The current president of Czechia, Petr Pavel visited the US, and said that Russian victory in Ukraine would be a fundamental failure for the democratic world.
Dating sites have more than one problem. Why can’t we have a simple system, where you just log in, verify your profile, and are shown all the profiles in your area? If you don’t pay you will get adds for get rich quick schemes and penis enlargement pills. Why do we need this gamified system that only makes you spend money and never getting anywhere? Well, in my opinion, if you are not Chad, don’t even bother with dating sites. Matter of fact, if you are not a Chad living in a major urban area, (city over a million) don’t bother.
This is my last experience with Tinder. In May, I set up a profile, and within few days I discovered there ain’t any bitches there. Well, there are, the usual suspects. I even found my ex there. Good girls in this region are not on Tinder. You would have to be fucking crazy to start anything with those 304s. I have noticed a lot of women are there to just catch compliments from men, usually that post-wall leftover bitch after 30. They are basically wasting man’s time. I spent time texting with a single mom, until I realized what I am doing. I would rather be single forever than date a single mom.
I am not a woman, so I can only imagine how the experience is for the women. Generally, there are fewer women on these apps than men. So the women there get inundated with male attention. The women only choose from 5% of the top dogs on the site. They choose Chad. Chad is an asshole, he ghosts, he does not come on time to dates, he doesn’t care. Then the woman that dates Chad finds a Facebook page by the name “are we dating the same guy?” and she finds Chad there. She finds out Chad dates another 30 bitches in the area. 😆
Guys, there was the Kherson offensive in 2023, Ukrainians have concentrated their forces to kick the Russians from the Right Bank of the Kherson region, they managed to do it but at the cost of many casualties. The Russians have withdrawn to the left bank. All this time, the Russians spent building fortifications in the Zaporozhye region, which has stopped the Ukrainian Kontrnastup.
Kontrnastup is Ukrainian for counteroffensive, and the Ukrainian counteroffensive failed spectacularly. By now, the Russians have reconquered much of what Ukraine took in the counteroffensive. I never understood the folly of this action, it was planned to cut through Russian lines and reach Crimea. It was announced months before, and when it finally started, the Ukrops got spectacularly fucked over.
Russia basically follows this strategy. They attack at one point, and draw Ukrainian reinforcements to the theatre, then go on the defensive, and attack at another point. Like this they have seven or eight directions open. In Kherson, they went on the defensive. Ukraine kept sending special forces on inflatable boats across the Dnieper river near the town of Krynki. I heard Putin say in one interview that he allowed the Ukrainians to cross to destroy them on the Left Bank. It was quite a spectacle watching the whole protracted battle. I saw Ukrainian boats hunted with FPV drones, and Ukrainians using HIMARS to destroy Russian infantry with cluster rounds.
Russia allegedly has like 100k soldiers in Kherson and Zaporozhye now that are ready to pounce and conquer what remains of these province under the control of Ukraine. To draw more Ukrops into another theatre of war, Russia began a limited operation north of the city of Kharkov. Ukraine delegated its best forces to stop Russian advance on the city, even though taking the city was never the point but equally Ukraine couldn’t allow encirclement of Kharkov.
Further north in August this year, Ukraine launched the Kursk offensive and captured few border towns in the Russian region. I have pretty much felt the outcome from the start. This will be another Krynki. The Ukrainians will pour soldiers into this territory and meanwhile the Russians will mobilize forces and stop their advance. It will become another cauldron, where Ukrainian forces will be trapped.
One only wonders why they are continuing these offensives, where they get their asses kicked. Maybe because demonstrating territorial gains to Western military virgins signals strategic success. Ukraine would have been much better served if they built defenses and did everything to stop Russian advance. Ukraine is quite strong in the drone department but failed in building ground defenses substantially. Like this they are losing forces and hastening their demise.
It is interesting how ideas and solutions that remove central authority and put power into the hands of individuals start to crop up…
I realized or rather discovered this after becoming thoroughly orange pilled. That is embracing Bitcoin. And well BTC is something that facilitates payments peer to peer without going through banks. It burst on the scene during the crisis of 2008, and “quantitative easing”. It presented a new take on money, money with a limited supply thus inflation prone, requiring proof of work to validate transactions. The beauty of BTC is it has no master, Satoshi Nakamoto is the mysterious founder of BTC and nobody knows who he is. He does not own Bitcoin, nobody does.
Governments and assholes want to control the media. They are deathly afraid of fake news. Disinformation can be dangerous because it can cause chaos but there is a lot of suppressed truth out there. But imagine bypassing the censors much like BTC bypasses the censors. Social media on a blockchain, where there is no management the government can phone and ask for people to be cancelled. I have also actually entertained the idea of blockchain voting.
Another thing that is emerging is the BRICS payment system. Murica has been able to get SWIFT to cancel Russia, thus this payment system was weaponized and ceased to be neutral. One of the criticisms of the BRICS is that it gathers countries which do not often see eye to eye. Russia-China-India seem unlikely allies given the history of clashes between these nations. But here lies the paradoxical strength of a shared payment system. Nobody would be in full control of it (hopefully) and its neutrality will be its strength. The new payment system comes on the backdrop of declining Western hegemony, and the emergence of a multipolar world. Can the World exist without a leading nation?
Also, the richer you are, the more ability you have to transcend the idea of belonging to a nation or state. If you have $100k (or more) to piss away, you can get a passport of some small island or some territory and take advantage of the perks there. These days we see a movement from the nation state towards universalist international blocks but I am interested in how an individual can do away with allegiance to a state. Is this possible? There are anarchist ideas of doing away with structures of hierarchy such as family, property (haves and havenots), and state.
Is doing away with hierarchy a utopian idea? How would you create a world that would satisfy everyone? Do we need to advance in technology to achieve a reality in which everyone would be able to grown into a viable adult without family, would be able to realize himself without money, would be secure and happy without property?
Owning nothing could probably lead to happiness because you would not have to worry about your possessions, more money more problems. But could I pursue my intellectual interests without money in today’s world? I could not! But imagine if the literature is all digitized, you can afford it with UBI, you can pay for your rent with a UBI, you can afford food with UBI, you can afford a computer with UBI, you can afford software with UBI? But the UBI will be distributed by the state and will amount to pittance that would barely pay for meal and lodgings.
So, while we can create a world without banks, without a single hegemonic superpower but it will take a while to do away with hierarchies in human society.
So, last month I had one of those fun episodes when everything suddenly breaks. The automatic mower broke, the dishwasher broke, and I am still using my gasoline mower and doing the dishes in the sink.
I called the mower service dude, and he arrived and offered us verticutting services, he said the grass is too dense. Verticutting is something I do myself, I have the machine for it in the garage. So I did it, and generated a literal heap of grass. And then I turned on the automatic mower, and it still did not work. So I call the fool again, and the second time he said the motor broke. So the first time he was trying to offer me gardening services that I don’t need, I never needed them, and he lied to me. What a faggot!
And I am still waiting for a component into the dishwasher. Bottom line is, you should always have a legacy option available to these modern day appliances. Because relying on the new shit is a way to hell, and waiting on the service to do their job is further hell. Here in Czechia we have a Ministry for Digitalization…
Its track record is dismal, it will tank the current government in the next election. Sadly, the next government will push this digitalization shit too. You literally need a pen and paper contingency along with digitalization. You also need a lot of energy for all this. We need new nuclear reactors and solar panels on every roof, geothermal wells in every garden, and new distribution infrastructure. All this shit can light on fire at any time, it doesn’t work in summer heatwave, when it snows or it rains it also has problems, when it gets frosty it freezes.
Some people were trying to troll Russia with the ascendancy of Sweden and Finland into NATO…
But few people understand the fundamental difference between Sweden, Finland, the Baltic States and Ukraine. One only wonders why Russia didn’t do Moldova style Pridnestrovie republics in the Baltics to prevent them from joining NATO but I guess this has to do with Russia not really considering the Baltics to be that important. And the same applies to Finland and Sweden.
With Ukraine, the issue is that Ukraine is Russia’s cultural space. The area that is today the Baltic States became Russian only after the defeat of Sweden and subsequent divisions of the Rzeczpospolita in eighteenth century. Ukraine is the cradle of the Russian state, and while this might appear mystical and irrational to Westerners. The latter fail to recognize this psychological drive. Putin explained this in the interview with Tucker, I fell asleep twice trying to listen to it… Putin does not want to allow Ukraine to become anti-Russia.
Some out there argue that Peter the Great’s window to Europe was Russia’s historical mistake. Russia has for centuries tried to be part of the West, part of the European political landscape. Russia even imported the Marxist experiment from the West, and tried to cozy up to the West in the nineties. Only to find out that they have no place there. The idea to secure the Slavic core, and the idea to look East and South have finally come to the fore.
Ukraine is a fine piece of real estate. It has fertile soil, natural resources, and access to warm seas. The latter is very important for Russia because the Russians do not have many of those. And while the access to the global oceans from the Black Sea is controlled by NATO countries. The latter are bound by treaties to let Russian shipping through and as long as this happens, Russia does not care.
The issue with having Sweden and Finland in NATO is no big issue for Russia. These countries were for decades hostile to Russia, and it does not matter if they have a seat in the Brussels headquarters of NATO. Russia has one folder for NATO, and used to have a separate folder for Finland. Now Czechia is required to help Finland should it be attacked by Russia. Russia never had any territorial designs on these countries, it is not historically connected to them. One only wonders, whether losing their neutrality was the right step?
Wokeism is typical leftist politics, class warfare, cultural struggle. We have seen this in late eighteenth century France, we have seen it in Bolshevik Russia, we have seen it in Mao’s China. Every time this is an agressive cancer that attacks the host, and ends in conservative or at least moderate forces coming to end the party…
One of features of wokeist policy in Europe has been mass immigration from Muslim countries, and a parallel attack on things like family, the Christian religion, and national identity of the European natives. The fact is this is not even leftists anymore. Leftists were maybe at its origins but when centre right is in power they do jack shit to stop it. Remember Merkel, Refugees Welcome? Several Tory governments did nothing also, matter of fact they did the opposite. The current opposition is between globalist that suck Soros’ dick and various people that oppose them.
I believe that 30% is a critical mass, after which eventual Islamization is inevitable. Bet you all the incels will scream the shahada, incel to Islam pipeline is already an established fact. In fact, outfits like ISIS and Boko Haram are in their essence incel rape gangs. Embracing Islam is basically the rejection of the feminist, free love West that offers them no pussy, and is totally understandable from an evolutionary standpoint. We all wanna fuck and reproduce. There will also be a lot of opportunists and women embracing Islam.
Unless we natives of Europe round them up, and mass deport them back to Africa and the Middle East, the Muslims are here to stay. I don’t think the milk toast Sweden Democrats or AfD can do shit about it, these cunts are nothing but liberals. And liberals are gay. Entire areas will be Islamized. The Sweden Democrats or AfD might demand these Muslims follow the law of the land but unless they are willing to enforce the law, these are just empty demands. Many majority Muslim places are no go zones, and the police finds it hard to enforce law there. Sooner or later, the Muslims will institute their own law. And this is how it will look like:
I find it absolutely cringe that libshits don’t have a fucking clue what Islam is. They think that everyone, who is not a white male should embrace their intersectionality bullshit. But Islam is a pre-modern desert cult that has no space for anything but itself.
Islam is right about women
Islam is extremely patriarchal, more so than European Christianity in its heyday. This is a culture, which makes women wear a literal bag over their heads, with a net so that she can see and get some molecules of air. Putting bitches in bags is literally misogynist’s dream. And apart from being covered, Muslim women also under go genital mutilation to reduce their sexual appetite. The latter practice is not really Islamic but many Muslims practice it. Also, Islam says that if your wife disobeys you, you should beat her. Where are intersectional feminists? The Koran says that if your wife blasphemes the almighty, you can kill her without consequence.
You can probably see that this shit is nowhere close to the liberal post-Christian utopia the woke crowd is building, and the center right is eagerly trying to preserve. So either, the West is going to have a brutally illiberal native backlash, or eventually Islam is going to institute its order. Either way, none of this means that woke shit will survive.
Sooner or later, some government will roll this out as a populist measure. If the bullish predictions about AI are true, various white collar jobs like accounting, coding, writing, illustration will be relegated to the AI thus making a lot of people redundant and companies more productive. This will prompt the governments to give freebies to the populace, pacify the plebs with bread and games. Or rather give the rabble money to keep it fed and entertained.
There are many thoughts on this. Some people think that having a UBI would demotivate the people from finding a job. Now, as a someone that has several streams of passive income, I will tell you, I still prefer having a job because well, I have to get ready to get out, I have to shower, I have to shave, I am among people, I can even get pussy. Quite frankly, I make enough money to never leave my house. I could have food delivered to my doorstep, and just play video games all day. Although, the job gives me diversification of my income. And quite frankly, I dread the next year when my contract ends and I will have to find myself something new.
But here is something that might arise in near future. There will not be any jobs for people. So while it would be great to have a job, there might not be many to go by. Now, I believe that some people will start their own business, they might learn creative skills. Handmade artistic creations even aided by 3D printing have the potential to reintroduce the beautiful into the world, something that was lost with 20th century functionalism, the disappearance of the ornamental, simplicity and mass production replacing the applied arts. But I believe many will just become useless, not artistically gifted and without business acumen.
But keeping the people content with UBI does not sit well with me. I view this as dependence on the state, and any dependence on the state reminds me of this scene from Mad Max: Fury Road:
You just do not want to be dependent on the state that will give you fucking fiat. What is good at receiving fiat? I fear vendors will make sure you part with your fiat UBI as quickly as possible. And in this instance, I regret that people tend to think of financial handouts when speaking about UBI. Why can’t the plebs be getting stocks of companies, ETFs, gold bars, BTC, bonds or maybe all of the above for a diversified portfolio? Stocks can provide one with cash dividends, which can serve as a passive income. Granted, you need quite a portfolio for it to be worth it. All these AI companies that put people out of jobs could turn those people into stakeholders.
If everyone is a billionaire, a billion is worth nothing…
UBI will come but it will sadly make the people dependent on the state for handouts. You will have a UBI dependent class of basic consoomers, and anyone breaking beyond this line will be the winner unless the government taxes his ass into oblivion.
