The MacPherson Report published in 1999 forms the basis of UK law enforcements soft-touch approach to racial minorities and is critical when considering how the UK Met has gotten so soft (till maybe 2022). Every instance of a criminal black being arrested became an example of systemic racism, mandating inquiry and review. Police officers could potentially become racist by osmotic absorption of racist beliefs held by seniors, but the far more likely outcome is their absorption of 'sod this paperwork' effort-to-outcome practices.
The London public which serves the UK civil and political administration decries every instance of white rule enforcement as racism, cries which are eagerly taken up by Good People in London who need to display their moral credentials to the people around them. 'Its their culture' are the blinders automatically applied whenever nonwhites (except for adjacents such as orientals/jews/ibo/sikhs) do anything wrong at all, while 'systemic racism' will be screamed whenever a policeman looks at a brown rapist funny.
The current lefty narrative around the rotherham rapes and all the other muslim gang rapes of children - actual pubescent sub 10-16 year olds, not 'teen' 19 year old 'migrant children' - is that the institutional classism of the police made them dismissive of the claims of rape. In reality the police get attacked as racist for even asking if the muslims are doing anything bad, so why would they bother. Just shut up and let the browns do whatever the fuck they want, thats what the London elite prefer after all.

You are free to call me or anyone else an idiot all you want. In fact, you are free to call anyone who develops gold plated stealth systems idiots, like the Russians or the Chinese.
Stupid idiots who cannot see your manifest genius in googling advertised capabilities of thermal cameras and high resolution satellites provided by small scrappy cheap startups. They can see a 20km by 20km space with 30cm fidelity on a geosynchronous position. The size of the pacific ocean within Chinas EEZ is after all only a mere 4 million square kilometers. You only need 40000 satellites in geosynchronous positions and no cloud cover for real time coverage. Oh and a reliance on having an enemy that does not have long range munition delivery platforms that go even further out than 200km from the EEZ. And obviously radar works perfectly aimed at the ocean, which famously is not made up of radar reflective matter. Hint: read up on what radar signals reflect off of before you spout off your next gish gallop of justifications.
You are the smart one, and everyone is an idiot for not making the smart move of spamming scrappy solutions that vranyo clearly delivers as superior to gold plated western tech. The Russian and Chinese MIC keep crowing about their SU57, SU75 and J35 only because they PRETEND to be interested in these capabilities. You are free to call everyone idiots for pursuing this gold plated technology and your own cheap scrappy solutions like the Iranians and Houthis are doing is way better as military tactics and strategies go. Potshotting an enemy to claim victory while hiding among civilians is excellent for propaganda, and the propaganda war is all that matters. Thousands of dead palestinians, yemeni and lebanese are inconsequential when you get to flood telegram with stretched out clips of your munitions hitting one target on repeat.

Yeah, that is present. It is extremely irritating, and you can tell when it is going to lead to an irritating cliffhanger.
However, nothing is as irritating as either Chinese style bullet comments where social media comments fly across the screen as the most irritating chyrons ever, or the canned laughters/splashes that infest East Asian variety shows from 1980 to 2080. Shifting away from that is a hallmark of producers who worked in the west, and that alone makes up for the cultural destruction the west imposed on the world with the simon wellfication of snarky bitches being hosts for 2 decades,

By your own presented logic, video evidence is sufficient proof. If this is fake, then why is yours not fake? What makes YOUR belief in veracity superior to this sources? You cannot present proof for one argument and then argue that proof for the converse using the same logic as your argument is invalid. that 'Ukraine fakes video evidence because superior S400 cannot possibly be destroyed by inferior ATACMS' is extremely weak.
no one will tell you what happened because it's likely secret and in any case involves some complex mission profile,
As arguments go, this is weak. Theoretically someone out there has a perfect argument that is so perfect that its mere existence obliterates all other arguments. Thus, the existence of this theoretical means all the other arguments are invalid, even if said theoretical is not actually presented.
This is effectively a religious argument, but for the anti-MIC. God, discounted.
You are free to believe in the superiority of a 3000 buck thermal camera being a superior option that obviates all other equipment. I can give you, for example,
that comments on exponential decay fidelity of thermal cameras.
But thats not the point is it? Proofs of Gods miracles failing to manifest are not proof of Gods nonexistence, it is merely proof of Gods secret capabilities that are beyond the ken of us mere mortals. The more proof provided that this Gods teachings fail, the more Gods disciples present new arguments out of nowhere to prove that God actually has more tools, so more fool the heretic. Stand proud, for God remains unblemished.
I can tell you that acoustic sensors are the worst failures of detection systems ever because of ambient noise pollution, and you'll come up some something else. I can tell you that beam riders have notorious falloff for BVR aplications because and atmospheric EM diffraction overwhelms OTH signal boosting systems. I can tell you that 'finding a target' out at open sea is in fact REALLY FUCKING DIFFICULT and shore based missile spam is basically being Cao Cao in Zhuge Liangs arrow boat trick at Red Cliff. I can tell you that the failures of the USA in Afghanistan or Prosperity Guardian are definitional in nature because the force was so overwhelming in nature that the normal tasking of 'defeat the enemy' is automatic, with the mission moving to the far more gnarly 'destroy' part, and observers fail to consider that 'defeat' being automatic is not in fact easy.
None of that matters. God, the manifestation of 'cheap stuff better than expensive stuff', is pristine eternally. Belief is all you need. Belief in the superiority of cheap stuff and vranyo. And Belief that your paeans to your God will make him manifest, while ignoring that Gods church is busy sucking down all the heretic dick it can find because its own teachings rotted the house from the inside.

Korean shows arent optimized for fairness. Physical 100 is fucking insanely unfair, but its just really fun. Similarly I think the restaurant challenge was also poorly designed but showcased different thinkings among the chefs. I think there was an element of 'too many chefs will end up fighting' but cultural deference to leadership stopped egos getting in the way. I cannot help but contrast this with US reality TV where insane bickering is the norm.
I think the restaurant challenge ended up being much closer than it had any right to be, and the diners were more the star of that episode than the chefs. I loved the sight of a giant black man just steadily wolfing down plate after plate of food while the korean diners all gave their commentary and insight on the food. Man knew what he was here for, and he just gave it his all.

Replenishment dollar value is a metric accessible and understandable to the public. It is also fundamentally wrong.
Gold plated seeker heads filled with Raytheon pension entitlements aren't slugging one to one against Chinese slaved missiles, they're part of a warfare system operating according to the presumed threat environment based on battlefield realities. Taliban and Vietnam crow about beating back the USA, with the cheap cost of thousands of their fighters and population for the tradeoff where they melt away immediately in any setpiece engagement. Yes the dollar value per Afghan is minimal, and they expend bullets in exchange for a 1m GBU, but a colonel calling in a package doesn't think about some schoolnin Virginia that doesn't get built because of the money he spends, he fulfills the mission and keeps his guys alive. Afghans thinking their own lives are worth less than a thousand US dollars is their calculus and consequence.
China and Russia crow about their cheap shit, but even without factoring in PPP calculations their headline assets are still expensive. A S400 is a billion fucking dollars, and we've seen multiple S400s get destroyed by less than 50m worth of ordinance each. Russias cheap and 'effective' aircraft have to do long distance lobbing because they are too afraid to operate in a battlespace with uncertain air superiority. Cheap doesn't mean cost effective, it means cheap.
Cheap houthi skimmers are striking civilian ships, not warships. Warships are launching SSM interceptors to strike threats 20 to 40NM away, not 1-5NM. At closer ranges EW nukes all command guidance, and systems rely on terminal guidance for final strike, which is where your fancy gold plated shit becomes necessary and why Russia keeps jerking off about hypersonic manueverability weapons. EW against command guided weapons has been in effect since the 70s, and the west lost the first round with their shitty doctrine of launcher guided missiles... exactly as OP of this thread castigates.
Cost effective mass generation is warfare for the early 20th century. Modern militaries are making a risky calculation that deepstacking intelligence and precision striking allows for decisive victory at individual engagements. That is their decision to make and their requirements to communicate. We as observers are free to call them stupid money wasters who just need some cheap integrated shit, but unless you are willing to violate OPSEC then all we can do is shove our scenarios into warthunder for gaijin to prove doctrinal superiority.

Culinary Class Wars on Netflix might be the most fun, if unfair, cooking show I've seen in a long time, and the most nefariously commercial.
Brief synopsis: 20 well known chefs ("white spoons") compete against 80 lesser known chefs ("black spoons") for a USD220K prize. The black spoons are no slouches, largely being restauranteurs themselves with their own successful businesses, but the white spoons are multiyear winners of michelin stars or international awards. The cooking challenges get weird, and something in the Korean editing gets the slow and fast moments right, with surprisingly competent emotional hits. One round in particular, the Infinite Tofu Hell, is honestly the absolute best cooking challenge I've ever seen, in concept and in execution.
The show optimizes for visual flair, dramatic setpiece reveals and novel challenges. Its not mechanically fair, and certain challenges seem introduced to maintain dramatic tension.
In particular, there is a survival challenge, where after an elimination round the losers do a cooking challenge to get advanced regardless. In this round, the contestants must make a dish out of convenience store food. One dish in particular stood out to a ridiculous degree, and makes this Netflix cooking show go from 'fun distraction' to 'mr burns money'.
See, it is inevitable that competent chefs get good bookings at their restaurants following a cooking show blowup. Half these contestants definitely are there just to boost social media, with the USD220K prize pool secondary to yearlong full covers. There are already secondary markets for reservations at the restaurants for the higher profile chefs, with scalpers for their restaurants.
But the real genius is in the convenience store round, moreso than Netflix. Netflix made a deal with a convenience store chain featured to sell dishes created by chefs featured on the show. That's already a good enough gimmick, and certainly will be profitable given the positive reception of the show, and the overall quality of Korean (and Asian in general) convenience store products.
The nefarious genius comes from the manufacturer of the convenience challenge winner ingredients. The convenience store in the show is genericized, but the products used are not. Because the key ingredients used by the winner were in-house products manufactured from the a different conglomerate, the conglomerate made a collaboration with that chef specifically to sell that winning dish as a product in their own convenience stores.
Sales of the ingredients used for that dish alone spiked more than 30% in the week the chef made that dish, and preorders for his creation sold out in 20 minutes.
It is a fun enough show, but this is the one example of a media hype cycle translating into likely significant financial benefits to the contestants, and even Netflix itself. I strongly suspect other producers will eye this show and its subsequent impact closely.

How sincere was new age occultism in that era? Was it barnum style showmanship, or did people really believe and act their real life in accordance? The craziest cult practice I encountered personally was a thai woman who said she created real kumanthongs to sell to thai oligarchs. A kumanthong is a stillborn fetus removed from the womans uterus, then preserved by smoking and then wrapped in sanctified talismans. It had magic properties and was said to bring good luck. She was notorious for providing high end escorts in Southeast Asia who did not use condoms, and several guys I know who used her girls wondered if their kids were turned into good luck charms.

Exactly this. Yes, the Czechs probably have money traded under the table even now, and employees in the French DGA treats Thales as their eventual employer, but in the end what matters is the force getting something they need.
Some charity can be extended to procurement agencies who have to react when vendors shit the bed, but bad procurement practices treat a procurement exercise as a shitshow to begin with. German procurement leaves their ground and air capabilities a decade behind their intented readiness posture because of insane litigiousness, Italians keep using shitty refurbished Arietes or Mangustas, Spaniards have no money at all, and did well developing assets jointly but shit the bed entirely with their domestic submarine program.
In the end what matters for military procurement is whether the stuff they have is fit for purpose, and if not why is it so. Much of military procurement failures like the OP example of the Arrow are a combination of vendors bullshitting the client about the expected capabilities of their equipment, and parallel evolutions in technology leapfrogging an in-development project, rendering the initial project entirely useless. Some capabilities are due to client interference, like the issue with the M16 powder in Vietnam causing fouling after the initial vendor failed to deliver on the scaled up contracts.
And of course sometimes clients and vendors both grab the idiot ball together and decide to hail mary, usually to failure but sometimes to success. The US littoral combat ship is a case of that idiot ball exploding in their hands, while the F35 needed time to cook, and cook it did.
And of course you have simple insane corruption for contracts in governments with no real threat forcing a reckoning. Headline assets like submarines or jets or ships or tanks or even the guns make the news, but I've seen an invoice where a shipment of chicken was 5x the supermarket rate. Thats where the real money is for corruption, and given the quality of the meal I would argue it fits my definition of 'failure to deliver'. A military is ultimately a transportation service for bad things to go into someone else, but my transformation into a walking biohazard is definitely not part of their food procurement specifications.

Bare minimum competent execution without real threats: Norway, Sweden, Czechia
Decent execution to counter real threats: France (special case: bites off more than they should chew) Poland, Finland, Turkey
Competent execution to counter real threat: Japan, Korea, Israel
Criteria for procurement success generally falls into the following categories:
- successful delivery (on time, on budget) of contractual requirements and subsequent phases including turnkey development
- suitability of requirements to mission objective
- compliance with governance restrictions, if any (re corruption)
- support local capability development, if any
When broken down in this manner, competing incentive mechanisms become immediately obvious, but also indirectly exploitable. Excepting definitional abuses of the above conditions, procurement failures for even basic systems are the statistical norm. Supporting indigenous capability development is the usual means governments and defense service sellers drain the public purse for no benefit, but ego stoking by censuring or advancing defense adjacent causes is also a common cause for mission failures.
It must be noted that a fundamental cause for procurement failures is economic incapability. Even if procurement practices are perfect, some states just have a shitty threat environment and cannot actually react to any practical threat which manifests. For the most part, the post Cold War peace dividend has resulted in objective 2 flailing about, letting defense budgets wither and focus shifting to counterterrorism and intelligence capabilities. In this anemic budget environment, inventories and capabilities have withered, with institutional knowledge rotting away and unable to redevelop even at a glacial pace.
The main defense many countries have is the incapability of their proximate threats. Nations are rolling the dice and hoping their neighbours are both too weak to actually do something and too smart to want to do something to begin with A military action is ruinous to both aggressor and defender regardless of kinetic success, and for many procurement agencies their mandates service internal political requirements when no external threat is manifest.

Broadly accurate, and the SA comparison is the most relevant one, as SA is looking to replicate Malaysias system of positive discrimination for the underperforming racial majority. The difference is that the Whites who exercised power as a minority racial group - pied noirs, afrikaners in Southern Africa, french and greek populations across Lebanon and Egypt - exercised political power as a racial minority over the local racial majority in addition to their economic dominance. Save for the odd case of Thailand, minority Chinese have never managed to exercise political ower over local majority populations. The economic dominance of Chinese over local majority populations is in spite of political discrimination, though Chinese shamelessness in playing the local political does allow for second order political protections.
The inaccuracy of the comparison between local Chinese minorities in Southeast Asia and White minorities is that save for South Africa, Whites do not exist as a formalized racial class with associated racial privileges/discrimination (note: Latin America is a weird case). Despite malay supremacist claims, Chinese Malaysians are not a transient expat population, but multigenerational residents with almost equal historical presence in Malaysia to the Malays. Like South Africa, the Malays are actually external groups like Austronesian Bugis and Javanese, as opposed to truly indigenous populations like the Orang Asli. This is similar to South Africa, where the Bantu expansions resulted in a Zulu population dominating the original Xhosa. Chinese arrived in permanent numbers to Malaysia within one century of the Bugis expansions, just as Afrikaaners settled South Africa within a few centuries of Zulu expansion (George E Hale may be able to clarify my mistakes here). Without developing a political power base, Chinese have largely been viewed as a replenishing piggy bank for rulers to raid for financing development initiatives, with regular pogroms exercised to keep the Chinese in line (more common in Indonesia and Philippines, but several branches of my family were snuffed by Malays a century ago).
In any case, the who Malay political leaders (especially the Islamist supremacists) have found it expedient to use western theories of intersectionality to advance discrimination against Chinese via economic appropriation now find themselves bound by the public abuses committed by their islamist populations who are beneficiaries and proponents of Malay positive discrimination according to the same principle of intersectionality. The current meta is to not discuss the crimes committed and castigate anyone who calls attention to it as racist for Noticing.
The West, especiallywith the ostensibly post racial white majority populations, have internal political rivals as the proximate enemy to utilize wedge issues as a discussion issue. In most other countries, the racial minorities must be crushed first. Until that happens, crimes committed by your kin must be downplayed.

That is fair. I debated whether to actually post this in the first place because its relevance is low. Foreign kids being abused sucks, but they're over there and we have problems here so no emotional energy is worth being expended on it
It is the STOP NOTICING BIGOT aspect that caught my attention. It is unsurprising that malay supremacist politicians are saying that to notice the crimes of muslims committed to other muslims is an act of discrimination, and the criminals should be let off. The emergence of western style human rights as a talking point is the surprising aspect, and it remains to be seen how strongly it sticks.
I understand the relative irrelevance of this fact to the salient culture wars waging in the west. I hope that for my own sake the current meta of 'brown losers are oppressed and cannot be censured for crimes' does not take root here.
Followup from a post I made in transnational thread about systemic child sexual abuse by a banned islamic cult in Malaysia. This post will actually focus on the concept of disproportionate Noticing, but the background leading to this actually could spawn a whole seperate thread about moral hypocrisy.
Summary: Malaysian police raided orphanages operated by a network of business entities linked to a banned islamic cult in early September. Sexual abuse (actual sexual abuse, not western diminished agency stuff) of 600+ minors aged 1-17 was the cause for the police launching the raids. Civil administrative incompetence, financial corruption and 'other inducements' are contributing factors to the failure of the religious authorities to police their own, to the great suffering of children. Yet not only is western media ignorant of this, what media does exist seems to focus on issues regarding migrant rights and statelessness.
https://interactive.aljazeera.com/aje/2016/malaysia-babies-for-sale-101-east/index.html
CW angles: STOP NOTICING BIGOT Indonesians and filipino illegals sell their children to richer malaysians, whether they are childless chinese looking for a pureblood han (the only good outcome) or criminal gangs looking for kids to maim and pimp out (the most common outcome for brown kids). Sex tourism in southeast asia is not restricted to rich whites coming to spend tourism dollars, there is a flourishing regional demand for child prostitution. A little commented but readily observed reality here is that islamic regions have higher predilection for sex with minors.

Criminal statistics on pedophiliac incest are also Noticed, just as in Europe. To protect the rights of children names are rarely disclosed, but indicative hints (multigenerational households in rental apartments) or cases where the judges exercise discretion to name the convicted largely show the preponderance of muslims as sex offenders.
The aggressive downplaying of the severity of the child sexual abuse to pivot onto high concept issues such as citizenship and rights strikes me as a stark contrast to the discourse surrounding Canadian residential schools or Australian aboriginal rehoming. English language media framing of this issue seems to aggressively downplay the complicity of the Malay authorities and consumers who abetted and consumed the goods produced by the cult. To be extremely clear, the sexual abuses of children was facilitated by a cultified interpretation of Islam that the cult members practiced, which encouraged pedophilia, coercive polygamy and social control strategies. The Islamic morality enforcement authorities did not act on this - it is speculated that the police (who are ostensibly secular but nevertheless staffed by malay muslims) deliberately avoided informing JAKIM about the investigation/raid to prevent JAKIM from interfering or covering up the cults activities. Yet, english language media, especially what little western media covers this, is running its own narrative interference by downplaying the sexual abuses committed by brown muslims. Without a white or white adjacent enemy to aggressively pin all crimes hypothetical or otherwise on, the issue in question becomes philosophical migrant rights issues instead of visceral child sexual abuse.
There are many horrible takeaways about this case, but the most relevant here is the contrast between residential schools mass graves and this GISBH mass sexual abuse. If whites are there, their guilt is automatic and eternal. If browns do bad things, its their culture and whites must support them lest they lose their unique diversity.

Transport Minister in Singapore got sentenced 12 months for receiving gifts (about 300k of stupid shit like Taylor Swift tickets) without declaring. The corruption charge was dropped by the prosecution, so the peanut gallery anticipated a sentencing of about six weeks, given the reputation of the defense lawyer and the anticipation of an upcoming election making the prospect of having a minister prosecuted be embarrassing to the ruling party.
The long sentence, over what the prosecution asked for, therefore comes as a surprise. The Corrupt Practices Investigation Bureau in Singapore does not fuck around, but the prosecution did ask for what was concluded to be a reasonable ask for an easy victory. In this boring country where things rarely happen, this public scalping is rather exciting, even if its more of a 1guard shave than last of the mohicans.

Islamic faith schools funded by successors of a banned islamic cult is found to have sexually abused hundreds of young boys under its care. Penetrative sodomy is common, and the children were taught to sodomize each other. Most of the children are offspring of polygamous marriages arranged by the cult as rewards for members. The financial power of the cult is speculated to be due to links with the religious enforcement board.
The embarrassment to the Malaysian muslim establishments are multifaceted: The governing party has failed to use its available tools, particularly the JAKIM and JAIS Islamic enforcement authorities, to clamp down on extant religious school abuses and it was the police that raided the GISBH facilities.
The opposition cannot capitalize on this failing of the government, because they are an explicitly islamosupremacist party and islam, being perfect, cannot possibly have done anything wrong, so the political hay is being made of the fact that the (muslim) government is oppressing muslims rather than the abuse having happened in the first place.
The muslim community is angry and embarrassed that such perversions occurred, because it is the filthy kuffar who indulge in perversions, not the pious muslim. (muslim sex offense rate is... something not for this thread)
The only reason GISBH was actually brought to public attention is that it is a banned cult. There are other madrasas with horrific sexual abuses as well, but lack the cult management. There is a potential CW effortpost on Islamic cults in Southeast Asia and their corrosive effect on Islamic authorities, but this Transnational Thread is not the place for such a post.

Noise discipline under duress is really difficult. Shitting in the woods was a problem back in basic for many of my fellow conscripts. Between insects crawling up my bunghole, constipitants in the food, the need to dig your own shithole and the mockery of your peers, it was always more attractive to hold it in as much as possible. But when you finally needed to go, you let out your best karate kiai to gokublast out your ass.
I am INTENSELY curious about guys who needed to crap while under fire. The problem with asking grunts is that they are full of shit about everything, including how they claim they are no longer full of shit.
Progressives do not want criminals to turn into the law enforcement mechanism because progressives do not believe crime is real in the first place. Or at least progressives have convinced themselves that crime isnt real, hence the logical next step of abolishing law enforcement.
Self actualization for progressives is contingent on having an oppressive force to actively resist, because their set worldview is already perfect and does not require convincing externals. Said oppressive force must be manifestly engaging in oppression, and so law enforcement against criminal minorities is coopted by progressives to be proof of their worldviews conception. People being criminal assholes isn't because they are shitheads, its because they are systematically oppressed by the big bad state.
In the progressive conception there is never any need for law enforcement labor, and it is impossible for minorities to commit crime when there is no oppressive force incentivizing them to do so. Manifest failures like Christiania, CHAZ, East Hastings, Kensington, etc etc are simply proof of how oppression is so systemic that criminal minorities absorb the culture of white oppressors to oppress themselves.
The labor of law enforcement is false labor for the progressive. It was never needed, and so should never be compensated. Ironically, law enforcement is required for the progressive worldview to continue existing. Without law enforcement, progressives have no manifestation of the oppressive structure and no external force blameable for progressive failures. The progressive worldview requires law enforcement to exist more than it wants it to be abolished, because if law enforcement is gone the progressive ideas have to stand on their own, and deep down all progressives know their pet minorities will find it easier to scalp defenseless dangerhairs than armed magasuburbs.
