David Pakman had my video about him taken down and got my already demonetized channel copyright-striked. Sad that a dude with 3.5 million subscribers is this sensitive to criticism but I'm not surprised

You have to admit that, if nothing else, anarchists have balls. Imagine not having the slightest historical legacy of success, anywhere, but a six month long Spanish revolution in a few cities that half of anarchists condemn as statist, a backward and poorly educated stretch of jungle in the poorest state in Mexico (that rejects the label of anarchism), and a now dead project in Syria that wasn't remotely anarchist in the first place.

In reality though, they're just cowards, because they'd rather side with noble failures than flawed victories. So when you see anarchists like BadMouse spending hours of their time to demonize Michael Parenti, keep in mind what they actually stand for and support: noble, honorable, miserable and total failures, time and time again.

RIP to the inimitable Michael Parenti, an immeasurable inspiration to countless people, and the brightest voice of hope during the darkest of times for the international left:

Its genuinely disgusting how much AI slop has overrun social media. I just want to look at funny memes and laugh and maybe god forbid learn something, but I'm constantly bombarded by AI scams and fake AI BS and I don't even know what is real or not anymore, it's almost like a mild AI psychosis. Is anyone else losing their minds about it as much as me?

I've always been a strong optimist about the power of technology to make people's lives better, including AI, but its easy to see why so many people have become so disillusioned about tech like AI in a free-market dystopia where it's just allowed to poison our brains without any restriction or regulation. The future just feels so unimaginably bleak in so many ways, and even the internet isn't a nice escape anymore but rather just a further reflection of the bleakness of reality.

I will neither support the repressive Islamic theocracy in Iran that mass-executes and persecutes socialists, women and queers, nor support American-led attempts at regime change against said theocracy.

It's really not hard to simply operate in factual reality and stop coping that either the ISLAMIC REPUBLIC of Iran is actually a good entity or that regime change in Iran would make things any better. Simple fact is that Iran is pretty screwed either way for the time being, but regime change would only make things worse.

It seems a bit too on the nose that a professor from the "Henry Kissinger Center" is the person that writes about how the Soviet Union wanted to 'run the world'.

I was interested in reading a book on the death of paganism called ‘Silence of the Gods’ until I read a review saying that the book disparages pagans in comparison to Christians and more or less presents the death of paganism as a positive good. Based on previous experience, I instantly assumed that the author of the book was a Christian. Sure enough, continuing the consistent pattern of all these supposedly neutral ‘academics’ downplaying the pagan genocide and demonizing pagans, his website makes clear that he is an active and devout member of the Church: drfrancisyoung.com/about/

Christians and religious folk generally should not be easily trusted when it comes to writing about their own religious history as they are provably not remotely neutral or interested in the true facts of the past, and yet remain a highly dominant force in modern academia. They are usually propagandists for their religion first and foremost, and they exist everywhere in the highest echelons of academia to this day, which is why they must be fought back against in order to portray history as it actually happened.

I'm publishing an excerpt from my upcoming book! This one is titled "Non-Believers: The Most Under-Acknowledged Persecuted Group" and explores the historic persecution of non-believers by Christians in Medieval Europe, a reality that is constantly downplayed and/or lied about by historians still today:

I’m nearing the completion of the first draft of the first in my three book series history of ‘The West’, one of the most taxing and challenging feats I’ve ever done. Unlike with my first book, I’m asking for help this time for beta readers (maybe multiple) for my new book. You will be recognized in the acknowledgments section and receive a free copy of the book. If interested, message me on discord with any relevant credentials (though none are required for consideration).
