"In fact the number of Russian KIA is likely higher than this data (even with a conservative adjustment) based on a recent interview with one of the statisticians from whom the figures for this study was obtained.

"Its not that socialism hasnt worked doesnt work and will never work. Thats all true. The salient point is that we shouldnt want it to work. Socialism is violence. Socialism is corruption. Socialism seeks to substitute a fake economy for a real one that functions and organically develops in line with the natural laws of economics. Socialism is slavery. Socialism is rooted in vindictive resentment. Socialism seeks to deprive individuals of their natural rights and aspirations in the name of chimeric shortcuts to utopia. Socialism is in a word evil in concept as much as its unworkable at a macro"

"Worth noting that the IDF destroyed three Hamas brigades and controls 75% of Gaza following its last operation. The only card Hamas has to play on the ground to retain control in Gaza is the hostages which is why theyll never release all of them under any deal no matter whos in power in Jerusalem. Militarily Hamas in Gaza has largely been crushed but they aim to survive rebuild and get back to a 10/6/23 reality. Israel cant and wont allow that to happen. IDF confirms: Hamas' Beit Hanoun battalion no longer functions as an organized military force after Israeli operation. IDF will now withdraw"

"General Anton Denikin who came closer than anyone to defeating the Bolsheviks in the Russian Civil War (and saving Russia and Europe in the process) later commented on why the anti-Bolshevik coalition ultimately lost. Disunity and factionalism sure. Also in his words we continued to speak in prose while the people demanded poetry. In this context Charlie Kirk and his powerhouse organization served two incredibly important functions for the American rightist cause/movement: 1) unity across the factions and 2) poetry which resonated with a wired generation that eschews dry prose. I think the"

"Ireland is a special case of what one can describe as eurotrash Israel hatred but it sure is something about our world that Israel has warmer relations with the likes of Azerbaijan and Kazakhstan than it does with much of old (to invoke Rumsfeld) Europe. Ireland will not take part in Eurovision next year if Israel is allowed to participate Irish broadcaster RTE said on Thursday arguing that doing so would be "unconscionable" because of the war in Gaza. https://t.co/obByly6Zhd Ireland will not take part in Eurovision next year if Israel is allowed to participate Irish broadcaster RTE said on"

"I blame the tragic assassination of Michael Collins during the wholly unnecessary and incredibly destructive civil war (caused by his opponents who refused to accept the will of the Irish parliament and the majority of the people). I trace many of modern Irelands issues to that. @BRyvkin The Irish are losers and reflexively identify with other losers. A great deal of this is retarded Irish romanticism of the IRA who were chummy with the various Arab terrorist groups back in the 70s and 80s. @BRyvkin The Irish are losers and reflexively identify with other losers. A great deal of this is"

"Informative exchange here as Maher and Shapiro are really arguing past each other or from divergent premises. Maher doesnt believe the Bible is divine focuses on its defects and internal contradictions and does not accept it as a primary (much less exclusive) source of correct morality in todays world. Shapiro believes the Bible is divine but beyond that contends that western morality (including Mahers views) is a product of thousands of years of people believing the Bible to be divine and shaping society around its dictates (whether Maher is right or wrong about its divinity). .@billmaher:"

"Whats incredible is that apparently neither this reporter nor anyone at ABC responsible for airing this abhorrent segment had the basic human decency not to do it. Not one of them thought no I dont want to puke when I look at myself in the mirror tomorrow after I tried to shift the narrative and force sympathy for a radicalized and narcissistic coward w/ a faux Don Quixote complex who brutally murdered a young husband and father of two for his mainstream political views. I would say shame on them but they have no shame. They wouldnt know what shame was if they tripped over it. .@mattgutmanABC"

"Requires a longer response but the Soviet invasion of Finland as a consequence of the Molotov-Ribbentrop Pact with Nazi Germany was very uncomfortable for the pro-Soviet/Stalinist left to navigate after Spain (where Stalin backed the Republican side) was such a cause celebre. As for similarities between Franco and Mannerheim in the case of the Spain and Finland yes. Each did what he needed to do and made the necessary compromises or pacts with the devil to 1) retain power and 2) prevent the conquest or destruction of his respective state/regime. @BRyvkin Always thought it was interesting that"

"And this happened within a day of the "Temple Mount is in our hands" being shouted by the commander of the paratroopers who took the Mount - this and not securing Israel's position in Judea/Samaria (West Bank) immediately. In hindsight - yes horrific strategic mistake. https://x.com/bryvkin/status/938452863340240896 Dayan did this with Eshkol's support less as a sign of grace and more b/c the Israeli military & political leadership at the time expected to have a peace deal soon & hand much of the captured land to the Arabs - inherent value of Mount et al. not considered enough."
