this gets asked so often in various threads someone should probably make a boilerplate effortpost we could just link to every time it comes up

also robert evans is a regime change ghoul, hth

yeah Evan’s is incredibly harsh on actual leftism and his tweets about the coup in Bolivia are disgusting. I don’t trust him at all.

^^ I got a Stalin keychain at the Stalin Museum when I went there with that image on one side. Always gives me good memories.

Came to post that I was glad there’s a new episode to listen to on my bike out to the in-laws for New Years. HNY everyone!

it would certainly be easier when you’re young but if you aren’t attached to possessions and can swing it economically it would be really rewarding.

I wouldn’t have believed that when Taibbi was making fun of Tom Friedman that he would someday have worse politics than the moustache.

That’s the thing. To get to the point where they were right, they made a lot of mistakes and were wrong about a lot of stuff.

I think the amount of false alarms they registered overall made people think an invasion wouldn’t happen.

I didn’t think it would happen but I thought NATO and the Americans would make some concession and they didn’t.

That’s the thing this time, they are fighting in a non NATO country so the stakes are lower and the refugees will be soaked up by the newcomers to NATO so the price won’t be paid by the major powers in NATO.

I think Matty, Noah sounds like he has health problems but he might win with a drone strike.

I thought it would be former Warsaw Pact but part of me didn’t think those countries would have enough sway in Washington. Then again Washington really wanted the war.

You can really see why other American journalists don’t like Hersh.

That interview was a breath of fresh air.

Hersh might be going on This is Hell podcast soon.

The host, Chuck, reached out to him and he agreed in the next few weeks. Then Chuck shared the email exchange he had with Mark Aames about it.

It’s on the latest (chicken) episode at the beginning.

I’ve long liked her insights on Georgia and thought it was a good interview.

hadji murad
Apr 18, 2006
I visited Georgia 20 years ago, kept up on current events there, and have followed her on Twitter for a long time. I thought it was really insightful how the NGO world works in countries like that. Maybe it wasn’t action packed enough for some.

I guess this isn't a money making venture per se, but the core customer base are the same people they're giving free copies to. Though if I like the book I may get a print copy anyway.

is there going to be a print copy? I tried looking but I couldn’t find one

lol at @ drone buyin, there’s a reason Ukraine is begging gamers to be operators. i ordered some usb connectable drone controller after i tried a sim (velocidrone) because its clearly owns but you need some real fine throttle control which would be a pain in the rear end on a gamepad

just use the neuralink
