And you’re telling me these tools don’t look so-obviously-Hasbara to you?
Posted by: Aleph_Null | Aug 3 2025 0:53 utc | 203 I adore intellectual disputes between titans. In my philosophical explorations, which recurrently dive into the mid-1800’s, I’ve stumbled upon the best yet, for mutual eloquence: the debate between Thomas Carlyle and John Stuart Mill on the Negro Question, in Fraser’s Magazine: Posted by: Aleph_Null | Aug 3 2025 1:15 utc | 204 @ Aleph_Null | Aug 3 2025 0:53 utc | 206 Posted by: james | Aug 3 2025 1:45 utc | 205 Posted by: Aleph_Null | Aug 3 2025 0:53 utc | 206 Posted by: LoveDonbass | Aug 3 2025 2:00 utc | 206

In the Preface to his work “Moses, the Revelation and the Covenant”, Martin Buber has this footnote: “1. That a scholar of so much importance in his own field as Sigmund Freud could permit himself to issue so unscientific a work, based on groundless hypotheses as his ‘Moses and Monotheism'(1939) is regrettable.” Posted by: juliania | Aug 3 2025 9:40 utc | 218 And as one of the comments above mentions Michael Hudson, I will further respond that Buber’s quote about Freud above could also apply to Prof. Hudson with respect to his application of economic theory to the sermon and prayer in which Jesus talks about debt as the Gospel writers describe. It is, similarly, a regrettably ‘unscientific’ application — or rather, an application in which science is out of its depth. Posted by: juliania | Aug 3 2025 10:07 utc | 219 I watched Fuentes, Alex Jones and Kanye a while ago have a chat – just two grifting. sheep dogs sheparding a very lost sheep Posted by: will moon | Aug 3 2025 10:51 utc | 220 Russia needs people who work in its economy. And Russia sacrifices tens of thousands of men just to gain a few kilometers. A country behaving idiotic like that will run into problems. And it also has to rebuild equipment. Russia once was the country with the most tanks and most of them are gone now. Posted by: kafunshou | Aug 3 2025 11:54 utc | 221 “ And absolutely no innovation”@11:54 Posted by: will moon | Aug 3 2025 12:10 utc | 222 Fascinating read. Even in this space russia proves itself a paper tiger, and such “peaceful nation” that’s so entirely focused on the offensive that yet again they don’t even think to have defences ready Posted by: 9903 | Aug 3 2025 12:31 utc | 223 Anyone ever noticed how pretty much everything that people thought was “good”, “working” or “powerful” when it comes to russia, was either self-proclaimed, or told by “experts” who simply parroted what russia self-proclaimed? Posted by: Big Combination | Aug 3 2025 14:38 utc | 224 I don’t know enough about NF. But, I did watch NF take down Tucker… Posted by: Aleph_Null | Aug 3 2025 15:14 utc | 225 Posted by: Aleph_Null | Aug 3 2025 15:14 utc | 228 Posted by: LoveDonbass | Aug 3 2025 15:23 utc | 226 You talk about Gary Webb inspiring you but don’t know the first thing about his work or that his inquiry was focused on the US not Iran or Nicaragua. Most US citizens who know of Webb’s work, would know that, yet you don’t lol Posted by: Aleph_Null | Aug 3 2025 15:31 utc | 227 Are you related to Candace? Posted by: Aleph_Null | Aug 3 2025 15:46 utc | 228 Posted by: Aleph_Null | Aug 3 2025 15:46 utc | 231 Posted by: LoveDonbass | Aug 3 2025 16:01 utc | 229 The CIA created 885 websites – spy on and put down the likes of Russia, China Venezuela Iran and Europe. Posted by: Republicofscotland | Aug 3 2025 16:52 utc | 230 Looks like Maxwell could be freed soon. Posted by: Republicofscotland | Aug 3 2025 17:04 utc | 231 Always has been. I spent my juvenile years there and people always joke back then that russian things has no quality in them. Cars are dismantling itself just when you leave the dealership, clothes aren’t looks nice and feels like it made from wood chip, and people said this about everything in late 90 early 00. All tech things was crumbles from ussr and had some potential, but if you wanna expand those technologies you need not to just steal money from budget, but invest in said tech. Nobody got this simple design then, no one get it now Posted by: Mountain Bee | Aug 3 2025 17:16 utc | 232 Aleph-Null@15:31 Posted by: will moon | Aug 3 2025 18:16 utc | 233 Posted by: Republicofscotland | Aug 3 2025 17:04 utc | 234 Posted by: LoveDonbass | Aug 3 2025 18:32 utc | 234 The Russians are very good at projecting the image of a country much more powerful than they actually are, mostly via exploiting the subconscious Western memory of the actual superpower that was the USSR. Posted by: Barit Brit | Aug 3 2025 22:02 utc | 235 When their -22 attack started and it was revealed some troops were wearing boots from the WWII era, I was reminded of two things: 1) their claim at making their infantry invincible thanks to a space age, super futuristic looking uniform some years earlier, and 2) the fact some years earlier some European military surplus stores had purchased surprising batches of what were called 100% genuine Russian uniforms… Posted by: Masseyrati | Aug 4 2025 10:11 utc | 236 |
