I have news. Wonderful news.

New paper on #disinformation. The title is the thesis. Think of disinformation as content that functions to optimise the decisions of the audience for the disinformant. This doesn't require deception or content that induces false belief.

Stephen Miller’s ancestors were Jewish refugees from the pogroms in czarist Russia. They came to the U.S. in the early twentieth century, even as racists said this same stuff about them.
Stephen Miller is now arguing that assimilation is fundamentally impossible and that certain cultures are not compatible with Western civilization

Tieši tā - mums nesanāk bīdīt šauras intereses kokrūpniecībā vai ostu termināļos vai pašās ostās.

@Progresivie “ārdās” par sabiedrības interesēm. Te nav stāsts par Pro un ZZS.

Stāsts ir par godīgu politiku vai tās trūkumu.

Šis teikums ir perfekts, jo vizuāli apraksta noskaņu, kādā Dieva kalps ierodas pie bagāta kunga - "Kad Ilarions iebrauca Latvijā, benzīntankā Jēkabpilī viņu sagaidīja Avena atsūtīts auto un nogādāja oligarha Klauģu muižā." rebaltica.lv/2025/11/krie...

Useful reminder here from historian of medicine Fay Bound-Alberti that assumptions that the human body can be repaired like a machine as long as spare parts can be sourced, are misguided.

Deputāts Jurģis Klotiņš no Saeimas tribīnes strostē medijus, kas nepievērš uzmanību opozīcijas budžeta priekšlikumiem. Atveru Delfus, sameklēju sevis rakstītās ziņas un ko es redzu – aprakstītus opozīcijas priekšlikumus. Manīju arī citos medijos. Nu, kāpēc deputātiem patīk melot tiešajā ēterā?

It's not just that the United States has stopped trying to promote liberal democratic ideas internationally. It's that the United States is actively trying to promote the contrary. It's trying to turn more countries into Hungary.

Alvja Hermaņa atklāsmes par ukraiņiem katastrofālo un mums vienkārši ļoti kaitīgo Trampa "miera plānu" liek man pievienoties sazvērestības teorijai, ka "Bez partijām" ir ietekmes operācija. 1. plāna punkts ir sačakarēt Latvijas demokrātiju. 2. Ir pievienoties Fico/Orbāna blokam.
