Meinungsfreiheit ist nicht nur das Recht, zu Allem seinen Senf dazu zu geben wie an einer Würstelbude. Es ist das Recht, Behauptungen der Mächtigen in Frage zu stellen, Erklärungen und Fakten einzuklagen und Alternativen einzufordern. Das mag unbequem sein, lästig, nerven, bremsen. Aber es ist der Motor des Fortschritts. Ohne Nörgler, Zweifler und Besserwisser kein Fortschritt. Zweifel ist eine gesellschaftliche Produktivkraft. Seine Diffamierung durch angeblich alternativlose Politik ist Rückschritt in vormoderne Zeiten. Deutschland braucht wieder einen Grundkurs in Debatte und Wiederbelebung der Streitkultur.» (- Roland Tichy, Journalist und Publizist)

Sanctioning a Ghost: Europe’s Empty Gesture Against Iran, by Larry C. Johnson
US Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent announced today that the European Union has “officially joined” the American sanctions campaign against Iran — Operation Economic Outcast — and framed Tehran’s choice in the usual absolutes: complete global isolation and a subsistence economy, or a path back to normalcy. It made a commanding headline. It is a hollow...

Why Does Trump Blow Up Girls’ Schools, Volleyball Teams, and Wedding Parties?, by Kevin Barrett
Rumble link Bitchute link TruthJihad link Around 9:30 pm on Tuesday, the US Navy’s most precise glide bomb blew up a wedding party in Sirik, Iran.

An Essay on Multiculturalism, Diversity and the Destruction of Western Civilization, by Paul Craig Roberts
Multiculturalism’s advocates present their agenda in terms of enhancing diversity. By diversity they mean more variety, not what the DEI advocates mean by the word–replacement of merit by some definition of privilege, such as race, gender, sexual preference. The goal of multiculturalism is miscegenation. The result is the disappearance of diversity into a mixture born...

Top 10 Climate Change Prediction Fails, by Kenn Gividen
Summary: Many specific, high-profile climate predictions—especially short-deadline claims of ice-free Arctic summers, submerged island nations, vanished snow, or “point of no return” dates—have not occurred by the years given. Longer-term physical trends (global temperature rise and sea-level rise) tracked by satellites and tide gauges have been closer to mid-range model projections in several evaluations, but...

Black Squawks and Random Walks: Taking an Inebriated Excursion in Bullshit Space, by Tobias Langdon
Randomness is racist. And sexist too. How do we know this? Because the study of randomness in statistics and probability theory has been utterly dominated by White men. It was White men like the Italian Girolamo Cardano and the Frenchman Blaise Pascal who founded these fields when they studied the mathematics of dice and gambling...

Hey Americans! Escape Debt By Going to War with Iran!, by Caitlin Johnstone
Today in dystopia, war pundits have begun suggesting that the US could recruit sufficient troops for a ground invasion of Iran by offering young Americans debt forgiveness in exchange for enlisting.

The Cost to Americans and the World of Trump’s War for Israel, by Paul Craig Roberts
The lives and billions of dollars are not the only cost. Interest rates are rising in a global bond selloff renewed by Trump’s attacks on Iran, which pushed oil above $91 per barrel.

Is Europe’s ‘Competitiveness Man’ Causing Division in Europe?, by J. Ricardo Martins

Muslims Are Positioned to Change the Correlation of Forces in the World. Do They Realize It?, by Paul Craig Roberts
The Iranian conflict is going very well for Israel. Israel has succeeded in turning the conflict into one between Iran and Israel’s proxy, Washington, just as Washington has succeed in turning Ukraine into a conflict between Russia and Washington’s Ukrainian proxy.

What Brazil's Election Reveals About the Limits of US Power, by J. Ricardo Martins
Brazil's presidential election on October 4 is becoming harder to distinguish from the broader US geopolitical struggle to keep Latin America within its zone of influence.

China’s Win-Win Alternative to Techno-Apocalypse, by Richard Solomon
Buckminster Fuller’s book “Operating Manual for Spaceship Earth” argues that rather than fighting over resources, nations cooperate to build high-tech, eco-friendly systems that create baseline human abundance. He called this win-win. When Fuller wrote his book in 1969, win-win seemed technologically unachievable. Not so today. One government picked up the win-win concept and made it...

Supporters of Capitalism Are Victims of Their Own Cognitive Biases, by Caitlin Johnstone
People who believe capitalism is working out great are just sloppy thinkers who’ve fallen victim to survivorship bias and the just-world fallacy. Survivorship bias is when your analysis focuses on those who made it while ignoring those who didn’t. You got a decent job, bought a house, and are now living comfortably, which means the...
