Counterpoint: maybe a world in which a murderous battle royale for enough arable land ensued would've been preferable, because it'd have removed the less capable races from taking up valuable space. It'd have been a tragedy for anthropologists, but probably a net gain for the species as a whole.
I don't particularly care that I'm alive one way or another and I think this is the right attitude. Human greatness as expressed in technological achievement, energy production and intelligence, in aggregate, is what matters, and I do not see how the entirety of Africa or India is helping anyone or anything.

It's trivially true that the current war in Ukraine could've been avoided had the Kievan Russ welcomed Moscow as liberators and acquiesced to their rule instead of choosing to fight.
Even more simply, it could have been averted by not creating conditions for a coup in Ukraine and then not psyopping the Ukrainians into thinking US is going to help them win a war against Russia. And you were telling them exactly that - it's even on video.
Two high profile senators talking, on camera, about "taking the fight to the Russians" and that US will give them all they need is pretty unequivocal in my book.
Voting, even when your vote isn't neccesarily the deciding vote, has value for the same reason honoring your agreements has value. Doing so (or otherwise not doing so) tells the rest of the world something true about you.
Voting is mostly a mechanism for farming legitimacy: "you voted for this, here eat it". It gives people the illusion that they may change some outcome. Seeing how it's gone with migration in Europe, it's pretty clear voting doesn't really work and you don't get to vote on judges and especially international courts which are making it impossible for states to run their own territories in a sane manner. If it's even threatening to start to maybe work then you get calls to ban the new parties, as with AfD.
It doesn't matter that policy is written by think-tankers or NGOs and that representatives don't even read what they vote on.
No.
They're not utter retards, so I highly doubt they wanted US to invade Iran either because that would go very badly.
Iran is a much larger country than Iraq, it has rugged terrain, ties with Russia and China and a somewhat more technologically capable population that is fiercely nationalistic.
US might have been able to topple mullahs with a color revolution, might get lucky and Iranians do it themeselves but an inevitably brutal invasion would have resulted in people rallying to the flag and something that'd make the worst of Iraq look like a cakewalk.

Surely the US doesn't need any more wars in the Middle East?
Israel was against the Iraq war FWIW. So there. They understood what was going to happen and it came to pass.

The link is self-explanatory.
A pretty impressive guy who has been mentioned here and who got cancelled for saying his mind is apparently tasked with recruiting people to reform key institutions.
What more should one post?
I guess you could just cram it into the CW thread, but
a) it's not even really worth debating.
b) it's fairly important information. Wouldn't everyone here want better Us institutions ?

Um, no. People are already working on stripped down 'reasoner' AIs with limited knowledge but great reasoning ability and ways of plugging in extra databases.
That's deemed to be the most promising area of research at least what my superficial following of Ilforte's twitter makes me think. The hope is, within say 10 years you'll be able to run a fairly smart mind on a big graphics card. Researchers believe even a 2-3 billion parameter model with the right architecture could be good at thinking. The models right now, especially the big ones were often giant bags of heuristics, at least before reasoner models entered the scene.

In case you really, really do not get it, it's what's called 'sexual innuendo'. English has a relatively impoverished vocabulary so people just substitute whatever words seem roughly appropriate and arrange them in a way that's suggestive.

It's been almost 80 years. Time for the occupation armies to go home.
You lot want to fight China for world domination.
Every single army soldier in Europe needs to be retrained for air and naval duties and sent to the Pacific if you want to have more than a snowball's chance in hell.

Chinese value excellence. No politics in universities either, they make students take an hour or two of political theory at universities, but that's about it. Activism is not tolerated at all.
Between the demographics and all, it's quite likely at least half of cutting edge research is going to happen there.
Sure is fun being a grad student in STEM and pouring every waking moment into a grant proposal due in the next few weeks to see this news today!
These days you can evaluate that quite fast. The idea no doubt is to starve the beast of left-wing NGOs that infests so much of the West.
It's depressing that in Europe, the Comission of Retards funds 'climate' NGOs which are then used to justify these policies and lobby for more of it. The end result is, insofar climate is concerned dismal. Once the truly impactful policies like banning ICE in cars or banning all heating that's not a heat pump, politicians balk because it's political suicide and activists howl in outrage how they're dooming the planet.
In the US you have the same thing. Veritas, ever ready to ruin someone's horny time sent some hunk at an EPA official who then proceeded to blab about how they're throwing 'gold bricks off the Titanic' to fund the NGO complex. Of course, the funniest part is that a lot of this was happening under the "Inflation Reduction Act".
Seeing what happened after NATO crossed the reddest fo red lines and pulled off a blatantly US coup in Ukraine, what with the US department of state people on the scene, Russians do seem to care about some red lines.
Suppose US somehow converted cca 1000 tomahawks into land-launch configuration, a feat theoretically possible in months if SpaceX or similar company were involved.
Suppose they were trucked to Ukraine, it'd only be like ~200 big trucks, and launched in mass through Belarus against carefully chosen targets which would mean Russians would, even at best ,shoot down only a fraction as intercepting them all would require having an uninterrupted chain of SHORAD along Russian western border, which they don't have.
I doubt Russia has enough fighters and enough AWACS planes to shoot them down. Suppose 100 important targets - bunkers, strategic infrastructure, ammo dumps - were hit in a morning.
Maybe Putin is cuck enough to take that, knowing America doesn't have the depth of arsenal to repeat that. Or maybe next massive cruise missile attack against Ukraine would just keep on going west and start hitting over-the border logistics hubs seeing as it's really hard to argue all that American hardware driven just across the border and fired off wasn't really Ukrainian.

let alone being raped by a homeless guy in an alleyway on the way home from work, such that the comparison is ridiculous.
Lot of women get off on humiliation, if that intersects with a rape kink, getting some sweet involuntary love from a hobo is probably a bit of a dream aspiration for them.
That’s why almost no romantic fantasies written for women involve female promiscuity
There isn't? My dad has, for some unfathomable reason read about a dozen of the Anita Blake vampire hunter books and related it involves the protagonist being promiscuous.

...nonsense generators? Have you ever used e.g. Gemini or Deepseek? Both are free. Okay both can be very naive at times, and both are kind of soy with default prompts. Deepseek, however, with a bit of prompting can be completely insane yet rational and easily smarter than most people you see if you go to any place outside of a professional context.
If you want to really see what they can do, install some client for LLMs and hook yourself up with some of the better free models over at https://openrouter.ai/models
(there's a 50 query daily limit if you have <10$ in your account, not sure if there's a better service. )

Things like remigration and "Great Replacement" and "anti-white" are all essentially mainstream.
Yeah. Going mainstream as a part of the platform of people devoted to preserving American power so it can protect Israeli interests.
Musk's photo-op in Israel after he said something stupid? Him now being close advisor to Trump, the guy with a record-breaking amount of Jewish family for a non-Jew?
I'm not that happy with that term either but it does fits: it's the capable parts of the US deep state, Silicon Valley which can sell them toys and new industrialists who will want those weapons contract to keep the world safe for Israel and democracy. After all, legacy arms industry is almost completely fucked and blinkered, so if US wants a prayer of a chance to win against Chinese, they'll have to do everything right.
What more do people want? A reasonable government and a chance to bend their backs in service to a monumental, meaningful task -saving the planet from Han domination, just as their grandfathers bent their backs and took over the world so communists couldn't do it.
I'm thinking that that won't make you very happy. The Rufo-Reich. It won't make Holocaust denial socially acceptable, though it might successfully clamp down on public black dysfunction.
Most people will be pretty happy with it, I believe.

So ?
Great men are rarely good men. Gaetz seems to be pretty eloquent and an enemy of the bureaucracy. Until that is purged and once again accountable to elected representatives, you'd do well to ignore any wrongdoing short of large scale fraud, actual forcible rape or murder.

Hence the sad and pathetic proliferation of bolt-on tits.
Well executed plastic surgery works pretty well and there's a huge undersupply of big, perky breasts.
If you were an evil genius utilitarian and invented say, a virus that'd bump up average breast size from B or C up to a G it'd cause a substantial worldwide increase in well-being of men and only a minor malus to well-being of women in that they'd mostly have to take care to do some back exercises.

I probably would not take either side of this bet.
Few modern Iranian missiles were intercepted in the last attack. Almost none. And these aren't as flat flying or as evasive as Iskander. Jamming satellites might work perhaps but it has inertial guidance so who knows how well..
No they have not.
That's your supposition, yank. Ask yourself what is a carrier group going to do when 128 maneuvering hypersonic glide vehicles appear over it.
Ask yourself how the carrier group is going to fare when it has what, 200 anti missiles. Even with perfect interception rates that's only 100 intercepted inbound missiles. Chinese LOVE large number production and they dug 1000kms of tunnels in mountains north of beijing.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Underground_Great_Wall_of_China
They can shoot a lot of missiles out from China.
an anti-ship version to withstand the stress and heat of high-speed travel.
The earlier version solved this elegantly, the missiles just delivered guided bombs with a speed of 1000 m/s high up, maybe terminal 800 m/s. You can have seekers then no problem.
It'd still probably work because 100 of these would be very tough to intercept and even 5-10 hits would seriously degrade operations from a carrier. Ships are hard to sink but the internal operations aren't very redundant for reasons of space.
I'm not sure how the later version solve this, the HGV ones.

this is laughable, the WMD intelligence was laundered from Israel direct to the White House through a special office composed of ultra-Zionists.
It was a full office of neocons, and the intel wasn't from Israelis. It was various bullshit from dodgy Arab sources being interviewed by Americans, interpreted in a maximally positive way to make the case. In addition, Americans trusted that Chalabi idiot.
Netanyahu give the hard sell directly to the American Congress on the Iraq War "taking out Saddam" in 2002! This is
He was not the prime minister of Israel at the time. Israeli officials were against it in private, although the GOI did not give a statement against it.

They don't seem very active in this edge of the woods so I had no reason to get pissed. EU is more than enough in the 'retarded policy' area. EU migration policy seems to be a Soros creation, where he ran an influence ops on the baboons in Brussels.
It'd need some research.
devastating policy?
It seems more like a grift these days. Blair is against migration now, and in Britain shilling the typical technocrat crap like digital IDs, censorship and AI - no doubt so that there are some huge contracts he could get kickbacks (sorry, donations) from..
There's even a slight positive influence as he wants less immigration and pushed labour to take such stance. Whether anything will come of it.. ?
Overall, he is really just another of these absolute cretins Europe is full of. The only difference is that he executes fast. Not sure how now, but his government was fucking things up super fast.

I don't understand how you can treat Fuentards seriously.
They're a generally very stupid, they're led by homosexuals probably controller by law enforcement.
Their entire shtick is being an antisemitic caricature and crapping up replies with bs.
They're a punchline to an unfunny joke.
EDIT in response to @hanikrum.. whatever : yeah, I should have written it more clearly: they're not 'online right', they're, at best, a disease that has attached itself to the online right. Calling them 'right wing' is even worse than calling MAGA right wing. People seriously supporting a bipolar black singer for president are not conservatives, or right wing in any imaginable way.
I guess it's understandable why @2rafa wrote it- if you go by the wikipedia article. you may think Fuentards /Groypers / AF are 'conservative' but if you look at what they're actually doing, they're anything but.
