The Fabius Maximus site discusses geopolitics. Like Cassandra, since 2003 we’ve given accurate but grim predictions - and reporting about the West’s evolution.
We are neutral observers, reporting the radical changes in America that most prefer to ignore. See our score on the political spectrum, per this tool of the Duke University Politicization Lab.

RussiaGate is more accurately described as an “operation”, not a “hoax.” This was a large, long duration program to cripple Trump’s presidency. It’s among the most successful covert operations in modern western history, in some ways equivalent to overthrowing small nations’ govts
The BBC is no longer even trying to do science journalism. This is straight propaganda, ignoring vital information needed to understand what's happening.
The new Twitter isn’t that different from the old Twitter - because people are policy. Conservatives are still canceled for obvious humor, while Leftists are held to different standards.
@aaronsibarium
The Left knows how to use power. They’re winning.

Nice demonstration of born-to-lose conservatism. People flowing in through open borders cannot be compelled to accept “British culture and customs” - even if multiculturalism was revoked as Britain’s primary social rule.

This is just the beginning. A new faction of the Left has discovered that they are powerful. There will be more and bigger demands. This is common in victorious revolutions.
@Byzness
1/ Conservatives watching the Left win on all fronts for so long, even now without organized resistance, dream of drastic solutions. Such as war, civil war, or an economic crash. Anything but copying the Left by working: organizing, developing doctrine, building alliances, etc.
@InsaneCope
Decades of work by the Left to delegitimize police has born fruit. The decline of public safety in our cities will be the result. This didn’t just happen. “The Worse, The Better” for the revolution.
@JonathanTurley
It’s not a conspiracy theory when the Left makes up pleasing stories with no evidence. It’s only a conspiracy theory when the right does it, even when they have much supporting evidence. The Left’s information dominance shields them from criticism.

It’s amazing how few of Britain’s senior officials are native British. The migrants and their descendants are taking over fast - and imposing their ethnic priorities over those of Britain.

The US weather service warned of a disaster in eastern Iowa- 7” of snow. As usual with their warnings, it was downgraded to flurries. After their high percentage of false alarms, I no longer listen. Pitiful.
Another call for men to man up & work harder for women: marry (get divorced), run the rat race, devote themselves to “risk-taking, gallantry, duty.” They don’t mention what’s in it for men. The whippings will continue until morale improves.

At age 20, Ada married William King - the 8th Baron King (later Earl and Viscount): Colonel, diplomat, scientist, and Lord Lieutenant of Surrey. She was primo aristocracy both by birth and marriage. Oppression isn’t what it used to be!

Probably not. I’ve seen no surveys showing any significant drift to the right of college students. This might be a combination of anecdotal data and wishful thinking.

2/ It’s a wonderful example of the press caught in their own lies. In 2021 they falsely claimed that Biden appointed Harris as a border czar - to buff up VP Harris and create illusion that they were stopping the migrant invasion. Now they retcon their story to “whitewash” Harris.

White male professor with this record of academic plagiarism are quickly fired. Members of a protected class are excused from even serious violations. An example of America’s new two-tiered justice.

There are still communists - but only in rich capitalist nations. Everybody else has learned from watching - or experiencing- the failure of all communist nations.
@MattWalshBlog
Plus the press will declare Harris to be a genius saint, providing 24-7 hagiography. And perhaps massive electoral fraud. The Left now dominates America’s institutions, and is willing to use it.
@alternativeted
Don’t mock the tactics of winners. The Left is winning on almost all fronts. Now the bandwagon effect has kicked in. Megacorps, the military, and formerly conservative institutions (eg, churches) join the Left’s broad front. They still face no organized opposition.
There is NO increase in the frequency or intensity of hydrological, meteorological, and climatological natural disasters related to climate change. Such arguments are pure propaganda.

The press did a “good job” other than their initial response, deploying the Big Lie. “Trump fell”, “loud noise”, etc. Even now the spin continues: “Trump says he was shot in the ear.” Herr Goebbels would be proud of the press, especially the Denver Post.

He is a professional propagandist. Facts are just tools to them, to be used as useful. The Left has information dominance, so they can lie at will - so long as climate scientists’ silence supports them. ‘Silence means assent.’ Its the price they pay for lavish funding.

What is the frequency of Category IV marine heatwaves? I’ve skimmed the literature and can’t find this in terms of percent of total MHWs or number of incidents - for any time period.
Good news! There has been no acceleration in melting of the Greenland ice cap since the start of high quality satellite records in 2002. This is news considered not fit to print by the major press. It ruins the narrative.

Perhaps he has read the work of the IPCC’s WG1 physical scientists, which gives little basis for belief in a climate emergency. But they too have been cancelled by the press - seldom mentioned in articles about the climate.

Neither is a meaningful indicator of quality. Nobody cares about critics. Why should they? Audience reaction is by definition not an indicator of the larger populations’ opinion.
@JohnSimpsonNews
We don’t have reliable daily or monthly temperatures for most of the world beyond a century ago. Estimates from thousands of years ago are from proxies, measuring (at best) seasonal averages with large uncertainties. Meaningful comparisons would be, eg Roman & Medieval Europe.

A young Leftist teacher tells his story. Goes to an inner city grade school. Confronts horrific reality. Learns absolutely nothing. Beliefs unchanged, returns to his privileged life, will vote straight Leftist forever. It’s our America.
Police stoke fear of police by randomly stopping people - then surprise! - passing out coupons. Unless they see something for which they'll ticket or arrest them. New frontiers in illegal search!

@mirandadevine
Leftists are masters of propaganda. They understand the key rules when caught: admit nothing, deny everything, and make counter-accusations. This works well due to their dominance in the press.
America's universities no longer serve the purposes for which they are so lavishly funded, and have become centers of propaganda and indoctrination. Only severe action can restore them to their intended role.

That’s a category error. Shell is a global corporation, a mega-corporation. Pretty much everything on an individual’s scale is tiny by comparison. Sales, profits, number of employees, etc. What is your point?

Leftists get different treatment from Leftist-run law enforcement than regular Americans. Their violence is excused, while that of conservatives is harshly prosecuted and punished.

If the Republican Party was an opposition party in fact, not just in name, they would have long since described RussiaGate as a “lawfare insurrection.” They never used their institutional power to defend Trump - or even investigate RussiaGate.

We are seeing this racial solidarity in juries, with Blacks increasingly unwilling to convict even obviously guilty violent Blacks. They’ve learned what they’ve been told: that America is illegitimate. We will reap what we have sown.
@sandylocks
Source? It seems unlikely. Black women are 1.4 times more likely to be killed by the police than White women. Women’s lifetime risk of being killed by police is about 20 times lower than men’s risk.
During the mask hysteria, I cited studies about ineffectiveness of masks in surgery. No impact. It was like citing the IPCC to climate activists. American’s delusions are immune to science, although we worship the name.
Look, ALL masking is a bullshit pointless superstition, OK?
Surgeons masking while they cut you open is every bit as mercilessly unsupported by every study, as is community masking in our era of Covid Stupid.
Hygiene masking is just dumb & it doesn't do anything.

It’s wonderful how Americans put unpleasant experiences down the memory hole, preventing learning. You say that after the latest (and largest) official study showing that RussiaGate was in effect a criminal conspiracy by the FBI. They knew from the start the claims were bogus.
