Duritz: I just felt there was a real callousness in our society towards women — this real arrogant, we-know-what's-best-for-you thought process returning to our culture in the last decade. I mean, obviously it's always been there, but you thought you were moving in a better direction for many years.Granted, with the MeToo movement, you got a lot of — for the first time — exposing a lot of people who were victimizing women. But at the same time, it also made you realize how prevalent it was. Half of our race, as humans, messed with and abused and taken advantage of and, quite honestly, raped. And then told what to do by the other half. It's attaching a valuelessness to half the population of the world.
I was trying to imagine what it must feel like to be a woman. When power speaks to you as if you don't matter.

Newsom wants Federal dollars to clean up State lands by implying the Feds aren't doing their job on Federal lands?
Newsom got $$$ to clean up State lands on Trump's first term.
The CA Taxpayer voted for millions of dollars in bonds to use to prevent wild fires here and the State used it on other issues.
Most Federal lands are not close near towns and settled infrastructure. It is the local greenery, green belts, and crap bushes growing in the "desert areas" of southern CA.

Trump, seine Reps, alle radikale Christen und hier die Springer-Presse (im vorauseilenden Gehorsam) bekommen seit gestern kollektiv Schnappatmung, wenn der Name Mamdani fällt und weil seine Chancen immer weiter steigen 😅
Seine Themen u.a.:
Kostenloser Nahverkehr (bspw. städtische Busse, Subway-Freeze)
Wohnungspolitik: Mieten einfrieren und öffentlich geförderter Wohnungsbau
Universelle Kinderbetreuung und Sozialleistungen
Mindestlohn von 30 $ bis 2030
Höhere Steuern für Reiche und Unternehmen, um soziale Programme zu finanzieren
Trump lässt im Moment untersuchen, ob der Mamdani ausgewiesen werden kann. Denn der sei nicht nur Muslim, sondern radikal-kommunistisch mit seiner Vorstellung von Politik!

Ein auf Gaza spezialisierter, französischer Historiker verbringt im Dezember 2024 einen Monat in in Gaza und schreibt darüber ein Buch. Schon der Artikel darüber ist sehr lesenswert.
»'Now I Understand Why #Israel Is Denying Journalists Access to the Appalling Scene in #Gaza'.
One of the only historians studying the Gaza Strip, Jean-Pierre Filiu, spent a month in the killing fields there, and documented everything«
haaretz.com/israel-news/2025-0… (Paywall)
Meine Gedanken dazu:
Die Menschen in Gaza sind einfach nur Menschen wie überall auf der Welt, und sie erleben einen anhaltenden Horror der unvorstellbar ist, den kein Mensch durchmachen dürfte.
Und dennoch passiert es, dennoch wird das Leid, der Horror, die realexistierende Hölle auf Erden geduldet, unterstützt, angefeuert, ignoriert.
Der Horror der in Gaza passiert ist ein Ausblick auf alle künftigen Kriege, die überall auf der Welt mit maximaler Brutalität geführt werden.
Diese Kriege werden so nun möglich sein, weil man das was in Gaza passiert nicht gestoppt hat, weil man für den Horror noch Waffen geliefert hat, weil man für das was unerträgliches Leid ist noch beschönigende Worte gefunden hat, das internationale Recht ignoriert und mit Füßen getreten hat, nichts dagegen tat, obwohl es jederzeit möglich war und ist.

hotels, restaurants, shops, theatre, misc entertainment, all closing down this year
they could have treated white europeans specially
but no, have to stick it to the norwegians for saying they're acting stupid
same thing applies, a little bit of elbow grease racism towards whites and "honorary aryan" east asians and indians would have prevented this
the first rule of building alligator fueled concentration camps is making it very clear who's gonna get fed to the alligators, otherwise you're just spreading terror in a way that hurts your interests

ICE is just trumps goon army now, transformed by flooding it with money and dubious recruits and led by loyalists, they're currently in the phase where they drag off women and children to establish precedent that they can do whatever they want

doesnt sound like it to me:
> More deportations flights went to further away destinations, including Africa and Asia, which did not accept US deportations for years, the agency said.
the southern border is basically 100% closed now. as much as i disagree with some other stuff trump is doing, they have done a great job on the border and also overall i think ice enforcement has done as good a job as they can with their resources, and it looks like they're actually getting ready to ramp up to the level necessary to deport millions of people.
there is huge potential for abuse when building up a massive standing army of this sort but that's the situation we've been put in. we can't allow this country to turn into france or england and be overrun by infinity 3rd world rapists and narco gangs and haitian voodoo cat eaters
> we can't allow this country to turn into france or england and be overrun
lol do you realize that west europe is *far* more homogeneous than america is? its actually been a bit of shock to me after coming to britain from the US
i'm not sure about that. from what i see it looks like you let in way too many foreigners, especially france, but i haven't been to europe in a long time.
my point is simply that you can't open the floodgates to unvetted 3rd world populations. that was a mistake and every last one of them needs to go home (or somewhere else, but they can't stay here)
most illegals are visa overstays
Also, if the issue is with the southern land border, why all the harassment of Europeans who come in via plane or sea?
i'm not sure about that. in the past most may have been visa overstays but considering the numbers that came through the border during the biden admin i don't think that's true anymore- but yes we have a lot of visa overstays. it makes no difference. they all have to go home.
so far we've seen 1 case of harrassment of a european tourist. one. how about another example?

PRAXIS
## Fraud, Theft, and Corruption Related to Ukraine War Aid and Weapons
### Major Cases of Fraud and Embezzlement
- **$40 Million Weapons Procurement Fraud (2022–2024)**
- Ukrainian defense officials and employees of the arms supplier Lviv Arsenal conspired to embezzle nearly $40 million intended for the purchase of 100,000 mortar shells. The shells were never delivered, and the funds were diverted to accounts in Ukraine and the Balkans. Five individuals were charged, and one was apprehended while attempting to flee the country. The misappropriated funds have been confiscated and are to be returned to Ukraine’s defense budget[1][2][3][4].
- **$17.7 Million Military Procurement Scam**
- Ukraine’s National Anti-Corruption Bureau (NABU) accused five people, including a former defense ministry official and company owners, of embezzling $17.7 million between August and December 2022. The funds were meant for military procurement at the start of the Russian invasion. Some of the money was allegedly used to buy real estate in Croatia[5].
- **Embezzlement by 30 Officials**
- Law enforcement uncovered a scheme involving 30 officials who embezzled $3.3 million allocated for the Ukrainian Armed Forces. The funds were misused for inflated contracts for fuel, electricity, natural gas, furniture, and construction. Some suspects also acquired land and assets through these schemes[6].
- **Large-Scale Defense Industry Fraud**
- A former executive of Ukraine’s state defense conglomerate, Ukroboronprom, allegedly transferred over $46 million from state-owned enterprises to foreign accounts, disguised as payments for “agent services.” The funds were used to acquire luxury assets in France, including a villa and vineyards. French authorities have seized these assets, and extradition is being sought[7][8].
### Weapons Theft and Black Market Activity
- **Arms Trafficking and Black Market Seizures**
- Ukrainian law enforcement has conducted widespread raids, seizing large quantities of weapons and ammunition from criminal networks. In Lviv (August 2024), police dismantled a trafficking ring, seizing 72 pistols, 20 assault rifles, 29 grenades, and nearly 49,000 rounds of ammunition. In Kyiv (September 2024), authorities seized 132 rounds of grenade launcher ammunition and other weapons. Some seizures involved active military personnel selling high-grade weapons, including anti-aircraft guns and US-made machine guns[9][10][11].
- **Historical and Ongoing Diversion**
- Ukraine has a long history of arms trafficking, with parliamentary investigations estimating $32 billion in military assets lost to theft and illicit sales between 1992 and 1998. While oversight has improved, the war has created new opportunities for black market activity, especially with trophy weapons and surplus arms[9][12].
- **International Oversight and Monitoring**
- Western partners and Ukrainian authorities have implemented strict tracking and oversight mechanisms for military aid. While there is no verified evidence of US- or EU-provided weapons being trafficked outside Ukraine, the risk of diversion remains a concern, and ongoing investigations continue[13][12][14].
### Summary Table: Key Cases
| Case/Type | Amount Involved | Description/Outcome |
|--------------------------------------------|-------------------------|------------------------------------------------------------------|
| Lviv Arsenal Shell Procurement Fraud | $40 million | Embezzled for undelivered shells; funds confiscated[1][2][3] |
| Military Procurement Scam (NABU) | $17.7 million | Embezzled by officials and suppliers; real estate bought abroad[5]|
| 30 Officials Embezzlement | $3.3 million | Inflated contracts for military needs; assets seized[6] |
| Ukroboronprom Executive Fraud | $46 million | Funds laundered into French assets; assets seized[7][8] |
| Lviv Arms Trafficking Ring | N/A (weapons seized) | 72 pistols, 20 rifles, 29 grenades, 49,000 rounds seized[10] |
### Additional Notes
- **Weapons black market activity** is mostly contained within Ukraine, with no verified large-scale trafficking of Western-supplied arms into the EU, but the risk persists[12][14].
- **Anti-corruption efforts** are ongoing, with dozens of investigations, suspensions, and asset seizures reported in 2023–2025[13][2][3].
- **Oversight by international partners** (US, EU) has not found widespread diversion of aid, but isolated cases of fraud and theft have been prosecuted[13][15].
These cases highlight the ongoing challenges of fraud, theft, and corruption in the context of the Ukraine war, as well as the active efforts by Ukrainian and international authorities to detect, investigate, and recover misused funds and stolen materiel.

🌿 Personal Ethics: A Powerful Antidote to Narcissistic Justifications 🌿
Narcissistic minds often craft elaborate justifications to shield their actions from criticism, blurring the lines between right and wrong. Here, personal ethics become a vital compass — an inner guide rooted in honesty, integrity, and empathy.
By cultivating our own ethical standards, we resist the temptation to rationalize harmful behaviors—whether in others or ourselves. This clarity helps those affected by narcissistic abuse stand firm, and encourages narcissistic individuals to confront the truth with humility and growth.
Remember: Strong personal ethics empower us to see beyond manipulation and embrace genuine connection. 💙 #NPD #PersonalEthics #MentalHealth #NarcissisticAbuseRecovery

Übersetztes Interview mit Peter Gelderloos zu seinem Buch:
Strategien für eine ökologische Revolution von unten
"Intelligente Problemlösungen kommen also von Menschen, die sich vor Ort auskennen, die mit ihrem Gebiet vertraut sind und wissen, welche Ressourcen ihnen zur Verfügung stehen. Und sie sind ebenso global, sie kommen einfach aus dem Territorium, sie kommen von unten, und nicht aus Vorstandsetagen oder Konferenzräumen, wo sie nicht auf das Territorium schauen, sondern auf Karten. Und sie schauen vor allem auf ihre eigenen Interessen, die Kontrolle zu behalten. Denn ihre Fähigkeit, irgendetwas als Reaktion auf das Problem zu tun, beruht in der Tat auf unserer Unbeweglichkeit, unserer Abhängigkeit und unserer erzwungenen Passivität."
Interview on The Final Straw, with anarchist author and activist, Peter Gelderloos about his latest book:
The Solution are already here -
Strategies for an ecological revolution from below
"So intelligent solutions to problems come from people who know their territory on the ground, who know what resources are available to them. And they're equally global, they just come from the territory, they come from below, and not from boardrooms or conference rooms where they're not looking at territory, they're looking at maps. And they look first and foremost at their own interests in maintaining control. Because their ability to do anything in response to the problem is really based on our immobility, our dependence, and our enforced passivity."

"Es sind nicht die Streitkräfte, es sind die Nachbarn, es sind ganz normale Menschen, die sich spontan nach der Logik der gegenseitigen Hilfe organisieren. Das ist es, was am meisten Leben rettet, das haben wir immer und immer wieder gesehen.
Und natürlich sind wir darauf konditioniert, uns darauf zu verlassen, dass die Regierung die Dinge für uns löst, oder, Sie wissen schon, große Konzerne, Techniker wie Elon Musk oder wer auch immer. Und das liegt zum großen Teil daran, dass wir in eine Situation der Abhängigkeit, Passivität und Unbeweglichkeit gezwungen sind.
Das ist normalerweise eine sehr deprimierende Situation, und es ist eine noch deprimierendere Situation, wenn wir sehen, wie die Welt um uns herum stirbt. Und so ist es völlig kohärent und im Einklang mit dieser erzwungenen Abhängigkeit und erzwungenen Unbeweglichkeit, entweder einfach wegzuschauen oder die Finger zu kreuzen und zu hoffen und zu beten, dass irgendeine große gottähnliche Figur daherkommt und das Problem für uns löst...."

"This summer brought yet another record heat wave, as climate change fueled disasters hit countries around the world, leaving human communities devastated by flooding, wildfires, and storms.

I hope you are right.
His first term showed you isn't smart enough to out play the powers that be, or he is just playing the heel. (Operation Warp Speed, John Bolton, white helmets, etc.)
Notre histoire démontre une évidence qui s'impose à tous.
Les censeurs, les procureurs de la pensée, le tribunal politique et tous les petits "capos" et autres despotes autoritaires, s'habillent toujours de vertu pour châtier les esprits libres.
Le CRIF, à l'instar de toutes les officines communautaires ( #LICRA, #LDH, #MRAP, #DILCRAH, etc...) est un instrument de pouvoir qui a pour objectif de faire condamner toute opinion contraire à son idéologie.
Dans un pays libre, démocratique, sain d'esprit, ouvert aux débats et à la contradiction... Une telle entité nuisible à l'intérêt national aurait dû être écrasée et dissoute par le pouvoir #politique.
Or ici, tout démontre aujourd'hui, que les politiques français se soumettent (pour ne pas dire s'agenouillent) devant cette structure qui ne représente NULLEMENT les intérêts français.On évoque à juste titre les sujets stratégiques de sortie de l'UE, de l'OTAN, de l'Alliance... Néanmoins, au niveau national, la probité et l'indépendance politique des prochains dirigeants seront corroborés et actés par ceux qui oseront mettre un terme définitif à la censure institutionnelle orchestrée (en collusion frauduleuse avec le pouvoir judiciaire) par la sphère communautaire illégitime et gravement préjudiciable à l'esprit français.
La liberté d'opinion naît dans la contestation.
La liberté d'expression s'exerce dans la confrontation.
"L'esprit français" ne doit pas mourir.
Il doit rejaillir, renaitre de ses cendres.
