[ad_1] Frankly, I find the charge of genocide against Israel to be obviously absurd, one of those claims that true believers insist upon precisely because the claim is so implausible that promoting it is valuable to show you are a true believer. Hence the pressure by anti-Israel activists for everyone who purports to be “pro-Palestinian” to accept the genocide claim, or be excluded from the club. Nevertheless, because the genocide lie is so common in public discourse over Gaza, I thought it would be useful to write a piece debunking the claim, though I wasn’t sure where I would place…
[ad_1] You would think that, in the middle of a war that is having catastrophic effects on the world economy, the US ‘Department of War’ might have better things to do than release UFO files. But you’d be wrong, as on Friday the Pentagon released a whole bunch of UFO files on their very own website (war.gov/ufo, if you don’t mind) for everyone to browse. This first release (there are more to come) is comprised of 119 PDFs, 28 video files, and 14 images. Quite a few of the PDFs are old files (as in from the 1940s to the…

[ad_1] Photo by William Bossen on Unsplash When Stalin wanted to get rid of someone, he didn’t just have them executed with a shot to the back of the head. He attempted to remove the offending person from history as well by excising their name from encyclopedias and airbrushing their image from photographs. In one infamous photo of two dozen Communist leaders from 1920, so many of them were declared “enemies of the people” in subsequent years that the official photo ended up with only Lenin and writer Maxim Gorky standing on the steps of a conspicuously empty porch. In other altered…

[ad_1] If I were a UFO enthusiast, someone who believes that some UFOs (now UAPs) are aliens visiting the Earth and that the US government knows this and is covering it up, I would be really disappointed. I might engage in some serious motivated reasoning to convince myself that the recent release of documents by the Pentagon was somehow dramatic, but down deep how could you escape crushing devastation. Lucy once again put the football out there for Charlie Brown and then yanked it. Trump wrote that his administration will, “begin the process of identifying and releasing Government files related…
[ad_1] For most of modern history, money has been treated as something constant—something stable enough to build entire lives around. We plan futures with it, measure success through it, and depend on it for survival. But there is a hidden assumption behind all of this: that money will always be available, always moving, always functioning. That assumption has failed before. And the uncomfortable reality is that the conditions forming today look disturbingly familiar—just dressed in a more advanced, more controlled system. Deflation is often misunderstood as simply “falling prices,” but in reality, it is something far more dangerous. It is…
