"Bolshevism is to be reckoned with Mohammedanism rather than with Christianity and Buddhism. Christianity and Buddhism are primarily personal religions, with mystical doctrines and a love of contemplation. Mohammedanism and Bolshevism are practical, social, unspiritual, concerned to win the empire of the world."
-- Bertrand Russell

"KILL AMERICANS" - China's New Education Campaign in School
China's new education campaign is absolutely terrifying, and for some reason, no one is talking about it(..)
P.S.Reason is simple - "big business and profits"! Contrary to what is preached in the West, the media and media platforms are NOT free from political censorship and unpleasant "politically incorrect problems" are quite simply hidden from the eyes of the general public and the information space!
The latest developments regarding the Western policy towards China exactly repeat what happened with the growing aggressiveness of the Kremlin before the war in Ukraine. At that time despite all warning signs, the West pretended that nothing was happening and Donald Trump even promised the criminal gang of the Kremlin that he would dismantle NATO...
The "useful idiots" of the West, driven by the greed for profit, continue to invest in the economy controlled by the CCP communist regime, but D.Trump & Co. wants to dismantle the Western collective security system - NATO, leaving the USA alone with the growing military threat created by the Chinese Communists...

hey while we are talking about how shitty the us has always been about apartheid, did you know that a cia officer named donald rickard tipped off the apartheid south africa regime to nelson mandela's whereabouts in 1962 which led to his 27 year imprisonment? fun fact right? from the axios article linked above:
it's just important to always remember that liberal politicians have to dragged kicking and screaming into progress. and then we had the gall to not remove him from the terrorist watch list until 2008.

“We congratulate Taiwan for once again demonstrating the strength of its robust democratic system, which – coupled with a free market economy and a vibrant civil society – makes it a model for the Indo-Pacific region and a force for good in the world,” the Chairs of Foreign Affairs Committees said in the Joint Statement(..)
P.S. It is extremely regrettable that the West invested in Communist authoritarian China in the name of short-term profit. In fact, mainland China has been illegally seized by an anti-democratic regime... In fact, the legitimate government of China is in Taiwan, but criminal usurpers in Beijing...!
Naïve Westerners imagine that money solves everything and profit justifies cooperation with any criminal...!!! Well, dear Westerners, now with your own money you have helped to build and strengthen the communist army and navy, which threatens your own businesses...!

This week on a whim I decided to start a book filled with interviews discussing what it was like to live through the fall of the USSR and trying to reconcile that past with the 'present' situation in Russia (the book came out in 2015 I think) and I'm so glad I picked it up, because this is the first thing I've read in a long time that has genuinely changed me as a person and the way I think about my life. There are so many touching tales about humanity and hope and cruelty and having to live and cope with bitter disappointment and unchangeable situations outside of your control and it speaks so much to what it feels like to be alive today, even though the interviews took place in the 90s/early 2000s and I've never lived through anything like what the people in this book have experienced. I'm not even halfway through this book, the audio version is nearly 24 hours long!! But it's been consuming me with Thoughts and I just needed to get some of them out
