WIFEJAK vs ANTI-WIFEJAK SPLITS THE DISSIDENT RIGHT

Stop Jakking off!

by Colin Liddell

As you possibly know, the Dissident Right is an incredibly powerful group of "meta-cultural warriors" operating way upstream from the normie-sphere.

This means that whatever they figuratively "piss into the cultural river" will later be swallowed by the masses far downstream -- amply boosted by Kremlin, Mossad, Chinese, or even Fed psy-ops.

Following the landslide election of Donald Trump in America and the destruction of Britain's Conservative Party in the 2024 general election, this is now irrefutable.

For this reason, it is essential to keep a very close eye on this small but select group of ideological mega-influencers. So, what is the DR running with now?

This is not clear, as the movement is now deeply split between supporters of what is known as the "wifejak" meme and those who oppose it.

Typically, the ones who are in favour of the meme are desperate, thirsty incels who have almost zero chance of finding a woman in real life, while those who oppose it are a collection of "sub-masculines" who are frequently accused of being "closeted gays" and have a slightly higher but also extremely low chance of finding a woman in real life.

Together these two groups make up around 99.9% of the DR.

The Wifejak is a variant of the well-known Wojak meme. It shows the Wojak character, now a little older but with a wife, a "Wifejak" and sometimes kids, thus promoting the idea of healthy demographics through traditional if somewhat naive ideas of family formation.

Depictions of the wifejak range from the highly idealised to the touchingly banal and trite.

Typical wife-jak appreciator

Wifejak meme from the 1930s

LARPy but also banal

However, this meme has deeply triggered the more "sub-masculine" elements of the DR, who have responded with vitriolic criticism and rabid and often psychotic anti-wifejak memes of their own.

In particular, people like Nick Fuentes, Keith Woods, Richard Spencer, and the Groypers have come out strongly against the meme:

Taking their cue from Fuentes, his followers, who are known as "Groypers" and who appear to show both deeply sub-masculine and highly incellish characteristics, have been particularly industrious in producing anti-wifejak memes. Some of these clearly border on the insane.

It only remains to be seen how this Dissident Right schism with its "dark energy" feeds into the mainstream cultural bloodstream, and whether it can be "grifted off" and "weaponised" by the usual suspects.

BRITAIN'S "REMIGRATION" NUMBER HITS 122,000

by Colin Liddell

Remigration is described as an "Identitarian" political concept that promotes the return of non-ethnically European immigrants to their countries of origin.

It is also often unfairly characterised as "far-right" or even "Neo-Nazi." This is "explained" by saying that remigration involves the "enforced" repatriation of migrants. But if that is the case, then "migration" is also "enforced" because migrants are simply reacting to incentives in both cases.

The blatant attempt to use emotional buzzwords like "enforced," "far-right," and "Neo-Nazi" is proof of the attempt by certain political and financial interests to remove this issue from the realm of popular democratic discussion. 

Proving that remigration is not inextricably linked to forcing people to repatriate is the fact that it already exists as a very real phenomenon completely independent of political policy. At date of writing, no European country has policies that can be described as "remigrationary." But natural and organic remigration exists all the same, as we can see by examining the UK's migration data.

The British government doesn't actually keep very strict accounts when it comes to migration. Instead, it relies on rough estimates and then, later, more refined and hopefully accurate estimates. 

Recently the UK government's Office for National Statistics released its rough estimates of long-term immigration for year ending June 2024. It was 1.2 million, of whom a million were non-EU nationals (86%). This was slightly down on the previous year, the year ending June 2023.

Due to the passage of time, however, these figures are now supposedly more accurate, so we will use those. 

In the year ending June 2023, gross migration to the UK was 1,463,000. This number is reached by adding the net migration figure of 906,000 to the 557,000 people who emigrated during the same period. 

These 1.46 million immigrants include 700,000 non-EU arrivals (international students, work visas and their dependents), 172,000 on "humanitarian and special pathways" visas, 91,000 "family reunification" visas, and 152,000 EU nationals.

These four categories only add up to 1,115,000. The additional 348,000 is made up of other migration categories, like short-term migrants, returning British nationals (i.e. foreign-born and those returning to the UK after living abroad for work or study), additional specific visas for refugees or people on temporary humanitarian status, and people on temporary visas who nevertheless added to the broader migration numbers (possibly by overstaying?).

What is interesting with regard to the idea of remigration, however, is the 557,000 people who emigrated or left the UK in the same year. This figure was made up of 233,000 British nationals leaving the UK (46% of the total), 202,000 EU nationals (36% of the total​) and 122,000 non-EU nationals (22% of the total). 

Yes, that is 122,000 non-EU migrants voluntarily choosing to "remigrate" themselves without any specific UK government policies to promote or enforce that.

This means that remigration is already happening and that a few relatively minor adjustments in things like welfare laws, employment regulations, accommodation requirements, etc. could easily turn that trickle into a flood, if only the political will was there or, barring that, if life in the UK became a lot less attractive due to various financial and economic constraints, such as a downturn in the economy or the collapse of Britain's ability to provide various welfare services.

IS CHINA STARTING TO CRACK DOWN ON ITS CAT TORTURING SUBCULTURE?

 

Cats = soft power

by Martin Gomersall

With "China hawk" Donald Trump in the White House, major problems with the Chinese economy, and key China ally Russia on the verge of economic collapse as part of its "three-day military operation" in the Ukraine, now is a difficult time for China and its leader Xi Jinping. The last thing China needs is to be seen as a nation of cat torturers, a massive PR own goal.

But there is definitely a flourishing culture of cat torturing in China, with several groups monetising videos of feline suffering, and even one case where the torturers were confronted online by female campaigners and responded by asking them to send sexual images in exchange for the cats not to be killed.

A recent Serpentza video made the case that while China bans a lot of other behaviour, it drags its heels with regard to people making and sharing videos of cat torture. Watch the video here:

But is this actually the case? 

There has been some official pushback against cat torturing. In March this year a student was rejected by two universities because of complaints by activists about on-line cat torture videos. A few days later, a college student in Jiangxi province was expelled for similar reasons. In April this year, there was a report in the China Daily of a student at Jiliang University in Hangzhou being "punished" for cat torture, although the nature of the punishment remains unclear. 

There is growing sentiment among Chinese that animal cruelty should be banned, but, unfortunately, China has almost no animal cruelty laws, and passing laws in China is a long and torturous (no pun intended) process, so this kind of animal abuse will continue to go relatively unpunished, with action only being taken in cases where activists identify the culprits and get them "cancelled" in some way.

Meanwhile, there are aspects of Chinese culture that will be extremely hard to bring in line with Western norms of anti-cruelty. For example, every year the notorious Yulin Dog Meat Festival takes place in Guangxi province. Here people kill and eat tens of thousands of dogs to celebrate the summer solstice. 

As long as these aspects of Chinese society remain in place, it will be easy for China's enemies to present it as a brutal and savage country. This in turn will weaken China's soft power position -- a CATastrophe for China!

SAD, LONELY RUSSIAN MAN BEGS WORLD TO HELP FREE HANDS FROM EXTREMELY STICKY DESK

A sad, lonely Russian man with eyes like piss-holes in the snow, has addressed the World's media begging pitifully for someone to come and unstuck his hands from his desk.

The man, who is believed to be living in a broom cupboard in the Kremlin or possibly under the stairs -- due to his weird pixie-like appearance -- spoke for several minutes while his tiny and flaccid hands remained rooted to the unforgiving wood to which they were clearly anchored.

Play video

During his short and panicky speech, the forlorn creature failed to mention how his digits became so inextricably linked to the upward-facing surface of his piece of office furniture, which is believed to have been made in Ukraine. But one theory is that he was mixing up a batch of Novichok in a hurry and accidentally created a strong Bonding agent.

Believe me, no pun intended

Another possibility is that it was merely a lowly office prank that went tragically wrong, with one of his colleagues, possibly a Chechen or a Kalmuck or a Buryat, putting superglue on his desk in a Third-World attempt to introduce a bit of mirth into the banterless silence in which they go about their hopeless and soulless administrative tasks.

RABID ZIONIST NOW FAVOURED TO BUY TELEGRAPH AFTER "KREMLIN-LINKED" TYCOON PULLS OUT

Influence peddler for Zion, Dovid Efune (no typo)

A fanatical Zionist with a weird name is now the favourite to acquire the UK's Daily Telegraph newspaper after a previous bidder with links to Kremlin "dark money" pulled out.

The influential British broadsheet is up for sale after its present owner, RedBird IMI, a "dark money" consortium of money from the UAE was blocked by the previous UK government from being the permanent owner. 

The new favourite to acquire the Telegraph is now Dovid Efune, a New-York-based Jewish Zionist, who has almost zero interest in British domestic politics outside of cheerleading for the destruction of Hamas and any territory or population that can be loosely associated with it. He is also very keen on banging the drum fervently for wars with Iran.

As reported by the Guardian:

"...the British-born Efune – who has described himself in the past as a 'conspicuous Jew' – upped his typically strident views on social media. In a series of posts on X, formerly known as Twitter, he said Israel would 'decapitate; Iran’s leadership with 'targeted strikes and close quarter assassinations … I’d expect the Ayatollah himself would be in the cross-hairs'. Last year, Efune gave a speech at a gala in New York held by the Algemeiner [Efune's former newspaper], where he now holds the title of honorary chairman, where he told attenders that when it comes to the Israel-Hamas conflict there is a need to 'fight with every report and headline'."

The previous ownership contender for the Telegraph was Sir Paul Marshall, who co-owns GB News with the Chandler brothers, who own a large dark money "slush" fund based in Dubai.

In the past the Chandlers, who became wealthy by investments in the Russian energy sector, have boasted of their intimate ties to Russian President Vladimir Putin.

Also, as GB News loses around £30 million pounds a year, it is clear that their investment in the news channel, which came on-line round about the time Russia Today was banned in the UK, has not been made for sound business reasons but in order to exert dubious leverage on UK politics.

In the recent UK general election, GB News played a vital role in boosting Reform UK, which successfully split the right-wing vote and allowed a generally unpopular Labour Party to achieve a landslide in terms of MPs if not votes. In many ways, this was an ideal result for the Kremlin.

Marshall recently pulled out of attempts to acquire the Telegraph after successfully buying the weekly right-wing news and opinion magazine The Spectator for £100 million. This was also owned by RedBird IMI which was forced to sell the title.

But Efune may not have things all his own way. In recent days his £500 bid to take over the Telegraph has run into problems.

As reported by the Times:

"The Telegraph’s New York suitor has lost a third financial backer with just one week to go before the planned cut-off date for exclusive deal talks.

Dovid Efune, owner of The New York Sun, has been unable to secure funding from the billionaire philanthropist Michael Leffell for his takeover of the broadsheet, after losing support from both Hudson Bay Capital and Oaktree Capital for a deal valued at more than £500 million.

Portage Partners/10 East, the investment venture founded by Leffell, told The Telegraph it was 'not participating' in a bid for the newspaper, raising further questions about whether Efune will be able to finance the acquisition."

Whoever finally lands the Telegraph, this whole saga reveals the degree to which people with dubious money, from Arab tyrants to people linked to the Russian mafia or Mossad/ Likud, are prepared to go to influence peddle in the relatively open democratic society of the UK. 

AMERICA IS NOT EUROPE'S FRIEND IN THE UKRAINIAN WAR

by Gabriele Adinolfi

The United States has, for the first time, authorized Ukraine to use American long-range missiles to defend its troops in the Russian region of Kursk, occupied by forces that, since last August, have placed Moscow’s military apparatus under psychological and tactical pressure.

Dmitry Peskov, the Kremlin spokesperson, responded by stating that this would mean war with NATO, while Vladimir Dzhabarov, a deputy in the Duma, declared that it was “a very important step toward World War III.”

In Europe, there is unease, with preparations for war scenarios alternating with cowardly calls for peace.

For two years, the Kremlin has been threatening nuclear apocalypse, a threat it did not make so frequently back when it was a genuine power, which demonstrates that Moscow feels fragile and weak. Should we then be worried? I might be wrong, of course, but I would say no.

This escalation seems psychological to me and part of the game aimed at resolving the Ukrainian conflict, which, let us always remember, was triggered by the Russian invasion at a time of significant de-escalation in the Donbas, and when the two main European nations were led by openly pro-Russian governments.

This occurred just after an agreement between Europe and Kyiv on the use of rare minerals (aka "critical raw materials") from the Donbas for our civilian and military industries, which alarmed the Americans.

Russia, whatever its “subjective” reasons, chose, by invading Ukraine, for the third consecutive time (after Libya and the Sahel), to attack our interests and favor those of the United States.

Since then, a Yalta 2.0 scenario has been proposed, albeit a second-rate version (limited to the European containment quadrant): with similar mechanisms to those of the past, the aim is to keep Europe under pressure and likely to divide Ukraine.

Trump’s election, with his promise to end the war, now requires repositioning.

But how will it end? Immediately after his election, he made it clear that he could not force Kyiv to make concessions if Moscow did not do the same. Yet, after more than two years of a bloody conflict that has benefited only the U.S., how can one accept leaving behind part of the captured territory, especially after the mistake of officially “annexing” it?

Moscow must hope for a Ukrainian military collapse by the summer, as several logistical indicators make it fear its own collapse within a year.

The U.S. wants a divided Ukraine and a threatening Russia because the latter has always been its watchdog against Europe. However, they also need to save face by avoiding a decisive Russian military victory, which would be the second-worst scenario for Washington.

The first would be a new implosion of Moscow, as happened in 1991, which plunged the Americans into a cold sweat and forced them to devise complex strategies worldwide to fill the resulting vacuum.

To push the parties toward negotiations, what better than the “eve of nuclear war,” as during the Cuban Missile Crisis 62 years ago? Hence the mutual ballistic threats.

If this leads to negotiations, the question remains: what will the Russians concede, and, above all, who will do it on their behalf?

Putin cannot concede anything because it would spell his doom.

This is why, considering that at the top of the Russian hierarchy, there has been constant infighting since the start of the war, it is likely that Moscow may begin contemplating eliminating the great mediator of domestic mafias who, for 25 years, has controlled power despite very different governments and directions.

Even the godfathers sometimes face risks. If I were him, I wouldn’t rest easy.

Let me be clear: I am not wishing for Putin to be killed; I am merely considering what could be the great formal solution for the “peaceful” consolidation of a Yalta 2.0.

A solution that, if it happens, will be entirely Russian and follow the usual methods over there.

In any case, whether Putin stays or not, it makes absolutely no difference to us: this is not a wish but a rational conjecture.

In any event, we will remain trapped in a pincer between East and West.

FARM TAX BECOMES THE NEW FAKE ISSUE TO POLARISE MORONIC BRITS

Low-information social media users "carefully thinking through the issues" yesterday

A relatively benign tax on dead millionaires has become the new "wedge" issue on the British internet, driving pointless polarisation and distracting people from more serious problems. 

The tax, which will only affect dead people who own farms worth in excess of £3 million pounds, was recently introduced by Britain's Labour government after it became apparent that "farm buying" was becoming a major form of tax dodging in the heavily-taxed rain-soaked island. 

Under the government's proposals, farms passed on to the descendants of farmers will pay a measly 20% "inheritance tax" on the value of the farm over £3 million pounds. For example, a farm currently worth £4 million would only pay around £200K in inheritance tax, or 1/20th of its value. Currently inheritance tax for non-farmers is 40% above £325,000. For a direct comparison, a non-farmer leaving £4 million to his descendants would have to pay nearly a one-and-half-million quid!

Also, by driving tax-dodging rich people out of the farm-buying market, the measure is likely to make farms much cheaper for farmers and thus push the vast majority of British farmers under the incredibly generous £3 million threshold.

Despite these facts, the cherished status in which British farmers are held is being weaponised to create a false sense of the British government "oppressing" people and "threatening the food supply" among low-information social media users, many of whom are currently engaged in pointless echo-chamber "victim spiralling" or moronic arguments with more sensible and less emotional people. 

It has not yet been determined who is driving this latest outbreak of collective idiocy, although the usual suspects (and their tools) must remain firmly in the frame.

TRUMP IS THE SLAVE OF HIS CRYPTO MASTERS

A cheap, disgusting whore who will do anything for money with an Eastern European model

by Daniel Barge

Trump is and isn't a lot of things, but one thing he can certainly be accused of being is a great, big, fat, disgusting whore with a pay-to-play sign in flickering neon above his flaccid grimacing face.

In short, he is the most "transactional" politician in US history, which is just code for "corrupt" in case that other word confused you.

But who is paying the organ grinder to make this monkey dance?

Crypto, that's who.

In an article titled "Cryptocurrency’s growing role in US elections" Economist Intelligence reports:

"For the first time in US history cryptocurrency has become a major campaign issue in a presidential election. The industry has contributed US$119m this year trying to influence the federal elections, according to findings by Public Citizen, a US consumer group. This represents nearly half of all corporate contributions made so far in 2024. The funding has largely gone to Fairshake, a super political action committee (super-PAC) dedicated to electing pro-crypto candidates. It has raised nearly US$203m (including contributions from individuals), according to filings."

All this money has had its impact on Trump's vacuous morality, with the President Elect doing a complete 180 on crypto now that he's being paid:

"During his previous term, Mr Trump consistently criticised cryptocurrencies—only in 2021 did he declare that Bitcoin was “not money” and “highly volatile and based on thin air”. He warned that digital assets facilitated illegal underground markets. However, in 2024 Mr Trump started to publicly change his position—in May he spoke at the Libertarian Party’s national convention and vowed to stop Mr Biden’s “crusade to crush crypto”. He became the first major-party presidential candidate to accept crypto donations, having raised about US$3m in cryptocurrency donations by end-June, as reported by the The Wall Street Journal, an American newspaper. His own crypto portfolio was worth nearly US$8m at end-July."

And this is the PoS that a lot of wankers in the Dissident Right think is their "Daddy."

But it's not just Trump. Ever wonder why the rather unlikely figure of JD Vance was picked to be VP?

"Mr Trump’s vice-presidential pick, JD Vance, is also seen as a pro-crypto candidate. Mr Vance began drafting a bill in June that would overhaul how the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC, the securities markets supervisor) and the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC, the commodity futures and options markets regulator) regulate cryptocurrency. Vance is also the first Bitcoin owner to run for vice-president. He owned up to US$250,000 in Bitcoin as at end-2022, according to his latest congressional financial disclosure."

Vance is rightly seen as the pawn of creepy gay tech billionaire Peter Thiel.

So, what will the crypto bros get for their donations to the Donald?

Mainly a big boost in the price of crypto at the probable expense of everyone else. Already he is talking about removing capital gains tax.

At the annual Bitcoin 2024 conference in Nashville, Tennessee in July, Trump promised to make the US "the cryptocurrency capital of the world" by creating "strategic national Bitcoin stockpile" out of the 213,000 Bitcoins (worth US$14bn) confiscated by the federal government, i.e. he is treating it like a traditional financial reserve. But while traditional financial reserves, like foreign currency and gold, allow central banks to inject stability into the system in times of crisis, this is not the case with Bitcoin.

Such a volatile and manipulable fake asset as this, this just creates financial fragility in the US economy that would serve to amplify instability rather than calm it. It would also serve as a weak point for geopolitical rivals to target, just like the US's frankly stupid political system.

Furthermore, Trump will also add to all the instability by blowing off the doors of crypto regulation, in particular by removing the SEC chair, Gary Gensler, who has advocated for treating many digital assets as securities with strict regulations. Under Gensler the SEC prosecuted Sam Bankman-Fried, the founder of crypto exchange FTX, and filed lawsuits against the biggest crypto exchanges and payments providers. Now, with Trump and his bought-and-paid-for goon squad in power, they can do what the fuck they like.

SURPRISING SIMILARITIES BETWEEN FUENTES AND HIS DERANGED "ATTACKER"

Y fight?

Fans of small, "gay," Mexican live-streamer and Jew obsessive Nick Fuentes were recently shocked to hear that their hero had been tracked down to his Illinois residence and "attacked" by a crazed stalker Jewish cat lady. 

Bravely defending himself by deploying pepper spray and calling on emergency services and his holy Christian God, Fuentes narrowly managed to fend off a fate worse than death -- actual physical contact with a female -- by kicking his hefty assailant down some steps. 

Now Neokrat can reveal the face of the savage, post-menopausal beast that attacked Little Nicky.  She is none other than Marla Rose, a giant (compared to Nicky), seething, demented, 57-year-old Jewish feminist vegan activist.

Doorbell thug and pepper spray recipient Rose 

However, there appear to be some surprising similarities between Fuentes and his deranged foe.

Both Fuentes and Rose were enthusiastic supporters of failed Democrat candidate Kamala Harris in the recent Presidential election, and both like wearing cat ears. Also, I'm 99% sure they both enjoy playing with dildos.

It is sad indictment of the heavily polarised nature of modern American society that two people with so much in common should be fighting a grim battle in a dusty stairwell.

ANTI-VAX IS JUST SIMPING FOR WOMEN HAVING KIDS TOO LATE

by Colin Liddell

In politically complex, racially diverse, over-opinionated, highly porous societies like those in Western nations, contentious points, like the pros and cons of vaxxing, often get lost in the weeds and the memes.

This is why it is important to look at the same issues is “cleaner” (in data terms) but just as advanced societies, like Japan. Looking at the vax issue through the lens of Japan especially is revealing.

When the Covid virus hit the planet backn in 2019/2020, it was noticeable that Japan was somewhat at a disadvantage. By 8th of April 2021, it had only vaxed just over 1% of its population. By the same date, the UK has vaccinated 56% of its population, the USA 52%, France 19%, and China 11%. Even India had vaccinated nearly 7% of its vast and impoverished population.

Furthermore, Japan, despite being one of the most technologically developed nations on Earth, had to rely exclusively on foreign supplies, getting most of its vax from US pharmaceutical giant Pfizer. The obvious question was:

"Why isn't Japan's high-tech medical sector just churning out its own vaccine supplies?"

The reasons are several, but mainly this was due to a lack of political will. What little political will exists in Japan tends to come from the big corporations that finance the politicians, and Japan's medical sector has long been somewhat ambivalent about vaccines.

One problem is too much protection of inefficient Japanese companies in order to maintain employment levels. Japan's med sector is old-fashioned and inefficient, with too many small companies insulated from that nasty thing called "competition" while also being supported by various government subsidies.

This cosy arrangement also means that these companies are often too small and unwilling to take big bets on Research and Development. Elsewhere in the world, rampant competition has created massive companies that can take big bets on R&D. This has led to four massive pharmaceutical giants dominating 70% of the global market for vaccines.

But the much more interesting reason for Japan’s inherent anti-vaxness concerns the fact that by the 1990s, Japanese mothers were having babies later and later.

In the past the Japanese government used to take the lead in pushing vaccines, but something happened in the 1990s that changed all this — a whole series of lawsuits against the supposed “evil effects” of MMR (measles, mumps and rubella) vaccines.

In 2003, the government and a research centre affiliated with Osaka University were forced to pay a total of 155 million yen to the families of two children who died or suffered side effects after receiving the MMR vaccine.

As reported at the time:

"The court ruled that the death of the son of a couple in Suita, Osaka Prefecture, and the serious brain damage suffered by 13-year-old Hana Ueno, from Hanamaki, Iwate Prefecture, were caused by the MMR vaccine. It ruled, however, that the child of a couple in Hyogo Prefecture died after contracting influenza."

Thousands more sued the government, mainly for cases of autism, although such cases continued to rise even after Japanese-made vaccines were withdrawn. In fact, autism has never been higher in Japan. So, how high is it?

The number of children with autism in Japan is estimated to be around one in 55, or 604.72 per 100,000 children. This is nearly double the rate of many other countries, including China and the United Kingdom, and nearly as high as The United States (one in 44). My guess is that Japan is actually higher than the US, but due to cultural norms and family shame much of this is hidden or covered up.

So, if dialling back on vaxes didn’t stop Japan’s autism epidemic dead in its tracks, what was the real cause?

My guess is that, just as in the West, the increasing age at which mothers were having children played a considerable role. According to data cited by Psychology Today Autism diagnoses in Japan have shown a clear increase from 2000 to the present, paralleling global trends. This also parallels the increasing age of mothers, with researchers increasingly noted this as a factor influencing autism spectrum disorder (ASD) prevalence. As maternal (and paternal) age increases, so does the risk of developmental conditions like autism.

2002 studies estimated Japan's autism prevalence at around 1 in 500 children. By 2012, the prevalence increased to 1 in 88 children, and recent reports put it at 1 in 55. Not all this can be put down to “improved diagnostic practices.” Autism is real and is increasing, as is late motherhood.

Anti-vax sentiment, both in Japan and the West, is generated by the same factor, namely a willingness to find an external scapegoat to blame in order to exonerate the individuals concerned, who in many cases have delayed having children too long. The main difference is that in Japan this correlation is a lot clearer.

Being anti-vax is thus revealed to be merely simping for women who have kids too late. Now, why would anybody want to do that?

LOW-ENERGY, RAMBLING, BOOMER ADHD EDGES OUT INCOHERENT, WINE AUNT GIBBERISH

Easy peeler?

America has decided! With exit polls and partial counts now in the bag, it looks like the US has chosen the low-energy, rambling, boomer ADHD, represented by Donald Trump, over the incoherent, wine aunt, cat lady gibberish of Vice President Kamala Harris. 

Despite fighting one of the dullest and most tired campaigns in US history, briefly enlivened by a couple of unsuccessful assassination attempts by incels, an increasingly orange Trump will now be reinstalled in the White House, unless the increasingly senile sitting President Joe Biden decides to have a major "senior moment" and refuse to leave, causing a constitutional crisis.

Trump mainly relied on long, rambling speeches, memes about a "euthanized" squirrel, and anecdotes about Arnold Palmer's cock to woo voters. Meanwhile Harris concentrated on garnering half-hearted celebrity endorsements from pop stars and laughing like a maniac.

Unfortunately for Harris, this radical electoral strategy failed to mobilise the army of silent "wimmin" voters that experts predicted, possibly because it was a long drive to the polling booth and the price of gas is much higher in 2024 ($3.37 a gallon) than it was 4 years ago when Trump was president ($2.19).

MOST ANGRY BOOMERS POSTING COMMENTS UNDER ARTICLES ARE KREMLIN OPERATIVES

"If you want a picture of the future..."

Ever wonder what sort of people are motivated to spend hours on the internet every day, posting angry comments under articles on sites like Gateway Pundit, the New York Post, Breitbart, Fox News, or the Daily Mail.

Well, it certainly isn't normal "concerned citizens," according to research by media watchdog NewsGuard who analysed the comment sections of several right-wing news sites and shared the findings with Wired:

“NewsGuard identified 194 users that all target the same articles, push the same pro-Russian talking points and disinformation narratives, while masquerading as disgruntled Western citizens,” the report states. The researchers found these fake accounts posting comments in four pro-Trump US publications: the Gateway Pundit, the New York Post, Breitbart, and Fox News. They were also posting similar comments in the Daily Mail, a UK tabloid, and French website Le Figaro. [...]

The actors behind this campaign appear to be exploiting a particularly vulnerable part of the media landscape,” McKenzie Sadeghi, the AI and foreign influence editor at NewsGuard, tells WIRED. “Comment sections designed to foster reader engagement lack robust security measures, allowing bad actors to post freely, change identities, and create the illusion of genuine grassroots campaigns rather than orchestrated propaganda.”

The researchers believe that the disinfo narratives pushed by these accounts are linked to Storm-1516, a Russian disinformation campaign with a history of posting fake videos to push Kremlin talking points. Recently Storm-1516 was behind pushing a deepfake video of someone making false allegations of sexual assault against vice presidential candidate Tim Walz, something that was confirmed by US intelligence. 

“Replying in threads is a tactic that can have an impact with very little investment,” Darren Linvill, codirector at Clemson University’s Media Forensics Hub, tells WIRED. “By inserting disinformation into an unrelated conversation it might be seen, even if the account being used has no followers and was just created yesterday. It also doesn't matter if the account you are using is caught and shut down because you haven't lost an investment, you can just create another account five minutes later.”

There is another pay-off for the Kremlin, as the fake comments allow Russian state-backed media outlets to misrepresent how Western audiences feel about particular issues to their own much-lied-to people.

"The fake comments, Newsguard found, are also then used in reports from Russian state-backed media outlets to bolster claims about how Western audiences are responding to a particular incident.

NewsGuard’s researchers identified 104 articles in Russian state media that cited comments from Western news outlets as evidence to back up their claims between January and August of this year.

This tactic allows bad actors to reduce the risk of detection and embed propaganda in a subtle, seemingly organic way, blending it into the casual commentary of supposed everyday Western readers,” Sadeghi said. “The repetition of the same claim across multiple formats and contexts can create a sense of familiarity that may lend the narratives an appearance of credibility."

Either that or they could just lose £30 million a year in dark money running a news channel on British terrestrial TV.

THE THIRD WORLD AGAINST UKRAINE

Kim getting the inspiration for North Korea's intervention in the Ukraine War.

by Cemil Kerimoglu

This is not solely Russia’s war against Ukraine anymore. Russia alone has already lost the war. It has been depleted of its resources and manpower. Its economy is indeed in shambles, with rising inflation, creeping food shortages, and heading towards a big crash.

But this didn’t make Ukraine’s or Europe’s situation better. Ukraine's western partners assumed that faced with hopeless situation on the battlefield and deteriorating conditions at home Russia would finally give up. However, those who knew Russia very well, like yours faithfully, were aware from the very beginning that Russia will not let it go. That Russia will not rest until it has destroyed the Ukrainian nation and rooted out the unique Ukrainian identity.

Those familiar with the dark depths of the Russian nature knew that faced with domestic shortages Russians would start scouring for resources elsewhere, and that they will especially tap into the vast human resources of the Third World to support their genocidal invasion of Ukraine. That process already started when Russian military began to be supplanted with Iranian Shahed drones in the autumn of 2022. Faced with shortages in ammunition and missiles Russians did not simply give up as naive westerners had hoped. Instead they resorted to help from other forces of Evil. Later, it was revealed that Russia mobilizes a significant amount of mercenaries from Africa, India, Nepal and migrants from Central Asian republics. Soon after, Russia signed an agreement of military cooperation with North Korea through which the latter provided Russia with millions of rounds of ammunition, much more than Ukraine's western partners could amass for Ukraine in their combined effort(!), and also with long-range missiles.

What is noteworthy is that throughout this whole process the forces of Evil represented by Iran and North Korea did not have any qualms about their ammunition hitting Ukrainian territory and killing Ukrainians. They did not put any restrictions on Russia and were not bothered by the possibility of being considered at war with Ukraine — a sovereign European nation. All the while the West, first and foremost the timid and neurotic Biden Administration in the US, has been forcing Ukraine to fight with one hand tied behind its back, first withholding and then putting restrictions on the usage of western-supplied long-range missiles, because God forbid the war might be carried into Russian soil and Russia will assume that it is at war with NATO. Reminder: Russian propaganda has been blatantly claiming from the start that it is at war with NATO, instead of all the pathetic efforts of appeasement by the latter.

And now, Russia has embarked on the next logical step that was obvious to the author and anyone else who knows Russians well. More than 10,000 North Korean troops will join in the invasion of Ukraine with more batches expected to follow later. True to its nature and inner calling, Russia has mobilized all the anti-western, in fact explicitly anti-white, forces in the world in order to carry out the genocide of a beautiful European nation. After it had shed its artificial European veneer — the pseudomorphosis that sat uneasily on the Russian people — with the Bolshevik Revolution, Russia has consistently acted as the vanguard of Third Worldist anti-western, anti-white ressentiment. Putin’s Russia follows along the same path that became all the clearer with the invasion of Ukraine. In fact, this is not something new in Russian/Muscovite history. In the 15th century, Muscovy — the predecessor of the present-day Russian state, destroyed and nipped in the bud a blossoming East Slavic polity, a nascent European nation — the Novgorod Republic, by mobilizing the vast resources of Eurasia for its genocidal aims. Back then a pivotal factor in Muscovy's victory over Novgorod, for instance, was the use of Tatar cavalry.

The only morally acceptable option for the West currently is to intervene with boots on the ground to help Ukraine. We cannot allow Russia to once again kill a nascent blossoming European nation and crush an emerging European identity like it did with the Novgorod Republic back in the 15th century. This will throw Eastern Europe into a new age of darkness and gloom. At the very least, and this is really the bare minimum of what the western nations are morally obliged to do, is to send an equal amount of soldiers to the one provided by North Korea and potentially Russia’s other partners in crime in the future. After all, what prevents Russia from receiving even more soldiers from North Korea — 20,000, 30,000, 50,000? Or from Iran, Cuba and Venezuela? Or even from China? All in order to support its barbaric meatwave attacks against Ukraine.

By what moral or logical standards is it acceptable that Russia gets the freedom to tap into the endless resources in the Third World to support its invasion, whereas Ukraine is still constrained in its war effort and left to fight alone? At this stage the West is morally obliged to lift all restrictions on Ukraine, and enter the war itself with boots on the ground. Anything short of this will amount to betrayal and a new moral low that will gnaw at us forever. Even if the West somehow miraculously avoids large-scale conflict and manages to buy the peace by betraying Ukraine and allowing it to be devoured by the Third World hordes led by Russia, that life of peace and comfort will not be worth living with such a weight on our conscience.

This situation in fact echoes the Greek war of Independence (1821-1829) from the Ottoman Empire. Back then, when the Ottoman Sultan Mahmud II found himself unable to suppress the Greek uprising, he urgently appealed to the viceroy of Egypt — Kavalali Mehmet Ali Pasha for help in dealing with the Greek freedom fighters. Mehmet Ali Pasha agreed to help with his huge and highly competent Egyptian fleet. Although Egypt, under the rule of Mehmet Ali Pasha, was nominally a vassal of the Ottoman Empire, effectively it was an independent state. Therefore, the Egyptian involvement to help Turks crush the Greek rebellion was viewed by European powers as a step too far and as the direct involvement of a second, independent party against the Greeks — a move deemed intolerable. Recognizing the moral and political stakes, European nations intervened decisively. In 1827, they confronted and annihilated the combined Ottoman-Egyptian fleet at the Battle of Navarino (1827), obliterating Mehmet Ali Pasha's navy. This was seen as the only morally justifiable response to help the Greeks in their noble fight.

In the 19th century, leading European nations had been cautious about decisively countering the Ottoman Empire, fearing its collapse might disrupt the balance of power in Europe and destabilize the region, just as they hesitate today with Russia. Their reluctance to support the Greeks fully at the outset led to extended suffering and needless losses. Had the European powers intervened early on, the Greek struggle might have succeeded swiftly and with far less bloodshed. Yet, despite their wariness, when they observed that the Turks were mobilizing foreign resources — rather than fighting solely with their own — they recognized that passivity and conflict avoidance was no longer an option. Supporting the Greeks then became a moral imperative, a call to action they could not ignore.

Today, we find ourselves in a parallel moment. North Korea’s direct involvement in Russia’s war against Ukraine signifies a shift that demands the West’s immediate and tangible intervention. Just as European nations stood by the Greeks when a second power was enlisted to quash their fight for independence, the West must recognize its moral duty to Ukraine. Only by matching Russia’s foreign-backed forces with a robust presence of its own can the West redeem itself morally and prevent a repeat of history — the destruction of a nascent European nation as was done to the Republic of Novgorod by Muscovy in the 15th century. The moral duty before us is unequivocal, as it was in the 19th century. Failure to act now will weigh on our collective conscience for generations.
