Chinese 3rd stages make up 80% of the low earth orbit mass which will kick off Kessler syndrome. If the West wants orbital A.I. centers. Deorbiting these Chinese "Kessler syndrome starter sets" has to be the highest policy priority. ⬇️ 1/

Four years since Ukraine’s victory in the battle of Snake Island. This was the first key step toward Russia’s full defeat in the Black Sea and its fleet’s loss of control over the region. And to this day, the Russian Black Sea Fleet stay practically inactive and hiding from Ukrainian naval drones in Novorossiysk. Today, on that small island in the middle of the sea, where according to legend the spirit of the ancient Greek hero Achilles rests, stands a Cossack cross in honor of the Ukrainian warfighters.

The video from Slavyansk-on-Kuban is instructive. Not because the refinery is burning again, that's routine now. What stands out is the total absence of any firefighting effort. Flames just eat tank after tank while the smoke column climbs like a middle finger to the sky. Spare me the cope that "some fires can't be extinguished." Iraqis torched nearly a thousand Kuwaiti wells in 1991; specialists capped and killed every last one. BP's Texas City refinery explosion in March 2005 produced a blast that shattered windows 1.5 km away. They had the fire under control in two hours and fully extinguished in five. Technology exists. Equipment exists. What doesn't exist in this particular moscovian backyard is the will or the capacity to use it. That's the real multiplier effect of Ukrainian long-range strikes. It's not merely the kinetic hit. It's the engineered reality that moscovia cannot protect, cannot repair, cannot even pretend to defend its own critical infrastructure anymore. Every refinery strike forces them into a choice: divert scarce air defense from the front, or accept controlled burn as national policy. They have chosen the latter. The economic bleeding is now structural. Refineries aren't just storage; they're the conversion mechanism turning discounted crude into usable fuel for the war machine. When you turn that into a perpetual bonfire, you don't need sanctions theater in Brussels. You create daily, compounding sanctions with better accuracy than any SWIFT cutoff. This is precisely why the "just negotiate" crowd remains either stupid or on the Kremlin's payroll. There is no diplomatic off-ramp while moscovia retains the illusion that it can absorb these costs indefinitely. Every unextinguished fire in Kuban or Bashkortostan or wherever the next drone package lands proves the opposite. Their rear is porous, their repair capacity is exhausted, their ability to convert oil wealth into combat power is literally going up in smoke. And before some isolationist genius in DC starts whining about American taxpayers, remember the math. These strikes cost Ukraine a fraction of what equivalent Western munitions would. They achieve what layered sanctions never could: direct, persistent degradation of the aggressor's warfighting economy. This is not charity. This is the cheapest European security insurance policy ever written. Moscovia wins in Ukraine and the next set of borders moves west at higher cost and higher risk. Every European capital that still treats aid as a favor rather than enlightened self-defense is simply advertising its own strategic illiteracy. The fires will keep burning because Ukraine has decided they must. No amount of kremlin copium about "NATO escalation" changes the simple fact on the ground: an imperial project is learning, in real time, that aggression has a price tag it cannot pay. The only variable left is how quickly the West decides to stop treating Ukrainian victory as optional and starts treating it as the non-negotiable prerequisite for its own survival.

Hundreds of second-generation Moroccan migrants rioting in The Hague after Morocco defats Netherlands after penalties at the World Cup. However, they refuse to live in Morocco. 🇳🇱🇲🇦

The whole World Cup experience is one of the best confirmations that assimilation only works in small numbers and niche contexts. If Morocco wins, much of Brussels is ablaze. If Algeria wins, half of Paris is ruined. If Turkey wins, Berliners can’t sleep for 3 days. Combine that with foreign flags *everywhere* in city centres and anyone with eyes can see that assimilation in the numbers we’re counting on is a pipe dream.

Iekšlietu ministrs balstās uz informāciju, kuru tam ir sniegušas padotības iestāžu amatpersonas, tostarp Valsts policijas amatpersonas. Saistībā ar rezonansi guvušo gadījumu par iespējamu kriminālprocesu pret IT blogeri, konstatēju, ka Valsts policijas augsta līmeņa amatpersona iekšlietu ministram ir sākotnēji sniegusi neprecīzu informāciju par kriminālprocesa neesamību pret konkrēto personu. Atvainojos sabiedrībai, ka sākotnēji sniegto VP informāciju izplatīju tālāk. Ir būtiski, ka iekšlietu sistēmā cilvēki var viens otram uzticēties un paļauties uz sniegtās informācijas patiesumu un precizitāti. Šorīt bija saruna ar konkrēto Valsts policijas amatpersonu. Esmu izteicis aizrādījumu, ka šāda prakse nav pieļaujama. Brīdināju VP, ka šis ir pirmais un pēdējais aizrādījums. Neatkarīgi no amatpersonas pakāpes turpmāk tiks rosināta disciplinārlieta pret amatpersonām par nepatiesas vai maldinošas informācijas sniegšanu iekšlietu ministram. Uzsveru, ka policijai ir pilnas tiesības veikt pamatotas izmeklēšanas un procesuālās darbības. Vienlaikus ir jāspēj pamatot sabiedrībai veikto darbību tiesiskumu. Šobrīd primārais ir nodrošināt pret LVM pastrādātā nozieguma ātru izmeklēšanu.

Wow. New preprint (not mine): " Faculty received an identical CV with only the candidate’s name varying to signal their gender and race, using a 2 Race (Black vs. White) by 2 Gender (male, female) between-subjects factorial design. Results revealed that STEM faculty evaluated female and Black candidates' research record significantly more favorably and recommended them for tenure and promotion at higher rates, compared to male and White candidates with identical CVs." osf.io/preprints/psyarxiv/jq…

Nel giorno della nascita di Oriana Fallaci viene naturale tornare a uno dei temi che ha attraversato gran parte della sua attività, come scrittrice e giornalista, e che oggi appare più attuale che mai: il destino dell'Occidente e della sua identità. L'Occidente non è soltanto uno spazio geografico o un sistema di alleanze. È una civiltà costruita nei secoli attorno alla libertà, alla dignità della persona, alla democrazia e al diritto. Un'eredità che appartiene a popoli diversi, ma legati da valori comuni. Possiamo avere idee e interessi differenti, possiamo discutere e confrontarci, è la forza delle democrazie. Ma c'è qualcosa che viene prima di ogni distinguo: la consapevolezza di appartenere ad una stessa civiltà e la responsabilità di custodirla. Viviamo un tempo segnato da guerre, instabilità e profondi cambiamenti. Le grandi sfide del nostro tempo non ci chiedono di essere tutti uguali. Ci chiedono di restare uniti e fedeli a ciò che siamo. Perché gli scenari mutano, i governi si alternano, il mondo evolve, ma ciò che non può cambiare è la fedeltà ai principi che hanno fatto dell'Occidente la più grande esperienza di libertà della storia.

Four analogies for a country: 1. The nationalist right views it as a family or community. So applying the same bar to citizens as to outsiders is nonsensical, because the country is of, by, and for its citizens. 2. The tech right views it as a company: you should bring in only the people who will benefit it. But this view is ultimately empty, because it doesn’t tell you what the interests of a country actually are. Hence the tech right (who are usually positive-sum thinkers) keep falling back on zero-sum concepts like “being competitive” or “winning against China” to justify their preferred policies. (Yarvin makes the “country as corporation” analogy particularly explicit.) 3. The tech left views it as a charity. To them, wanting others not to receive what you’re been given is hypocritical. This view is also empty, because it doesn’t tell you where the windfall actually comes from—and once you start to talk about the benefits of culture, ethics, institutions, etc, it becomes clear that citizens (and their ancestors) *built* that windfall rather than just being given it. 4. The woke left views it as a cancer: something that is aggressive and parasitic by its very nature. Countries are inherently violent (in asserting their borders) and exclusionary (of non-citizens) and therefore shouldn’t exist (or at least shouldn’t be allowed to police their borders, which is effectively the same thing). A charitable read is that this is a trauma reaction to the holocaust and colonialism—but regardless, it has become so deeply anti-civilization that it seems descriptively accurate to call it evil and insane. Paul’s tweet below most directly corresponds to the tech left bucket. Unfortunately people in that bucket are rarely willing to push back on the core tenets of the woke left, and so end up aiding and abetting them. As one example, he’s surely smart enough to recognize that his tweet makes no sense to people who view country as an extension of family. But acknowledging that is a slippery slope towards legitimizing ethnonationalism, so he pretends to not understand the pushback.

Most Western immigration policy is driven by special interests; one of the most powerful types of special interest is dying institutions (like universities) or industries, as they are still powerful and connected but face an existential risk.

🇩🇪 German public broadcaster ARD is out there dropping anti-air conditioning propaganda in the middle of a record heatwave. Their infographic basically says: "Sure it cools you down, but it heats up the planet." Meanwhile Germans are melting and only 6% of homes even have AC. Nothing says "we care about you" like lecturing people to sweat for the climate. Climate warriors would rather you die of heatstroke than install an AC unit.

This assumes the Kessler syndrome satellite debris chain reaction doesn't wipe out low earth orbit (LEO) satellite constellations. The more abandoned Chinese 3rd stages populate LEO. The sooner that chain reaction occurs. 1/2

This means a cultural wipe-out for a complete commuity Madness
