No to war.

This came out a few days ago, and yet it's amazing how those outside the US, understand Americans better than Americans themselves do.

Propaganda is indeed a very powerful weapon.
And no where is it more prevalent than in the US, and on Americans.
"Behind all the evils of this world stands a single superpower – the United States; everyone knows it, yet no one can restrain it. What follows are merely words of moral condemnation and political support for those subjected to its various methods of killing. This is not surprising; the cult of death in the US has a bizarre imagination. One need only look at crime series such as “CSI: Crime Scene Investigation” – in all their versions – to see the countless ways a human being can be killed. But the state (political, military, and corporate power combined) has perfected this imagination on entire nations and states. They fall one after another like dominoes, and no one so much as lifts a finger. We have both classical and non-classical methods of destroying a state. Yet today, the most “modern” are genocide, strangulation, and wars of attrition – all to plunder, eliminate the Indigenous population, and strip it of agency (sovereignty)."
Earth's Great Enemy - the next film I want to see.
Somehow I don't think the US mainstream media will plug this one.
Perhaps because the extension of US Empire (namely it's military) is the villain in this movie.

What a shocker - Israel responsible for 2 out 3 journalist deaths in 2025.
Give new meaning to the idea that journalism is a dying profession.
I'd say it's a very deadly one.

Never thought I'd see the words 'holiness' and 'Epstein' in the same link.
But there you have it -> https://www.mintpressnews.com/the-dalai-lama-epstein-connection/290674/
I mean if you consider 'holiness' as a CIA operative, and 'Epstein' as a Mossad operative, then it all makes sense.
Incredibly, there are some on the 'left' who still fall for the US Empire's talking points about their latest overthrow attempt of a foreign government
But not at BAR.

Many people who ought to know better have fallen prey to
propaganda, notions of western white supremacy, and beliefs in orientalism.
These otherwise well-informed so-called leftists need little prompting to start
questioning the Iranian government and joining in condemnation of non-existent
oppressions. If they so chose, they could have honest discussions about Iran
and the U.S. and determine which one was most oppressive.
Which country has more people imprisoned than any other?
That would be the United States. Which country is holding immigrant children in
jails across the country? Again, that would be the United States. Which country
is bombing fishermen in the Caribbean to make the case for regime change in
Venezuela? Well, that’s the United States. Which country provides the means to
support Israeli apartheid and genocide. Of course, the United States is the
perpetrator. Where do immigration enforcement agents shoot people to death in
the street? That happens in the U.S.
Which country’s constitution calls for support of all “oppressed people”
and mandates support for Palestine in particular. The answer, of course, is
Iran.
To be blunt, white supremacy infects the West to such a
degree that there are very few people who are able to discern the most basic
facts that might force them to be open-minded about their country and about
others. Even so-called leftists believe that Iranians are backward people who
need to be saved. They give them no credit for being able to practice
self-determination and decide what sort of state they want to live in. They
don’t even care that years of destabilization and war have limited the ability of
Iranians to work for the changes they may want to see realized. In the final
analysis, lazy liberalism and orientalism are as responsible for the crimes
being planned against Iran as much as obedience to zionism and imperialism are.

That's it! I figured it out - we're NOT living in 2026.

Donald Trump convened the first meeting of his so-called “Board of Peace” this week. Despite much fanfare, key nations refused to join, the Pope turned him down, and he struggled to even stay awake during the plodding and absurd speeches. Our writers covered it extensively.

Fucking Duh. I've been saying ever since it happened that Kurt Cobain didn't kill himself.
Turns out I'm not the only one.
Kurt Cobain died on April 5, 1997 at the age of 27 in his home in Seattle. The cause of death was ruled to be a self-inflicted shotgun wound. Now, almost three decades later, a new report suggests that Cobain was murdered, with the perpetrators forging a suicide note.
"There are things in the autopsy that go, well, wait, this person didn't die very quickly of a gunshot blast," said independent researcher Michelle Wilkins. "The necrosis of the brain and liver happens in an overdose. It doesn't happen in a shotgun death."
Burnett and Wilkins propose that Cobain was drugged against his will, causing a death by heroin overdose. The killers then allegedly shot the rock star and made the scene look like a suicide.

Another unpleasant weekend is coming.
Yes - work related. No surprise there.
Unlike previous ones, this is a culmination of a lot of things that have been building over several months, perhaps years.
I'm not looking forward to it. I'm hopeful to survive it by the beginning of next week.
It has not been pleasant. It certainly has not been fun.
We'll see hot it goes.
Which genocide of Palestinians is worse?
The dramatic type perpetrated on the part of Palestine that's Gaza, or the more methodical one in the part of the West Bank?
https://mondoweiss.net/2026/02/how-israel-is-eroding-life-for-palestinians-in-the-west-bank/
What is being constructed, then, is not a temporary crisis but a durable condition. The banking blockage in the West Bank is not designed to be resolved, but managed. Settler violence is not an aberration to be corrected, but calibrated. Legal annexation is not a deviation from international norms, but part of it is the new normal.
The question is not whether these processes will intensify—they already are intensifying—but whether those subjected to them will recognize the pattern in time to interrupt it, whether global attention can be sustained in the absence of spectacular violence, whether solidarity can attach itself to the slow grind of compression as fiercely as it once responded to the sudden shock of massacre.
Just when you think an empire couldn't get more depraved.
This is about as bad all Israel and Epstein.

This is serious form of 'fucked up'.
https://www.blackagendareport.com/organ-theft-neo-cannibalism-and-israels-trade-palestinian-death
Even more fucked up, as how long this has been going on for.
It does seem to me quite odd in one aspect. Given the rather obvious supremacy-based belief structure Zionism is built on, I find it weird that they'd extract vital organs and other parts of the bodies of the people they hate so much; and are trying to eradicate.

'rules-based world' = Rules for thee, not me.
It's a reminder that the Western/Crapitalist governments are full of shit. They represent the interests of the rich and powerful, and that is all.
https://peoplesdispatch.org/2026/02/08/the-hypocrisy-of-a-rules-based-world/
Recently in Davos, Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney did something unusual. He admitted (almost casually) that the so-called rules-based international order has never quite been what it claimed to be. That the rules were unevenly applied. That the strongest routinely exempted themselves. That integration, once sold as mutual benefit, has increasingly become a tool of coercion.
For a brief second, one could almost feel relief. Not because the truth was new – but because it was finally spoken aloud. We have lived under this system for generations. Born into it. Disciplined by it. Told it was neutral, benevolent, inevitable. We were instructed to respect “rules” written elsewhere, interpreted elsewhere, enforced elsewhere – usually against us. The outcome was never order, but obedience; never justice, but management.
And yet, the system endured – not because it was true, but because everyone agreed to behave as if it were. This is the real source of its power.
And also its fatal weakness.

Well I finally started.
Got my musical equipment at last.
It took awhile (and there's still a ton to learn), but I was able to create something fairly fast, and in the way I want to do it.
Obviously it's going to take some time - as well I'll need a new desk.
More to follow on that soon.
When one asks why the US is attacking Venezuela, is it just because of the oil?
I mean, that is a big part of it, but it's much more.
It's because Venezuela represents a true affront to the neo-liberal capitalist system the US has been since Day One.
It's about enabling their people in a way the United States doesn't want to in any with theirs.
The Venezuelan “threat”
When President Hugo Chávez came to power in 1999, a revolutionary process began that would set out to repay the “social debt” owed to the Venezuelan people, beginning by dedicating 75% of national spending to social investment – funds, importantly, generated by the country’s historically predominant oil sector. Through missions that began the year Chávez was elected, the country elevated its population out of poverty and illiteracy, reaching a 100% literacy rate, with more than three million people learning how to read and write (Mission Robinson); training 6,000 professionals in universities and graduating one million high school students (Mission Sucre); granting nearly 5 million homes to families across the country (Mission Vivienda); building health clinics in 320 of Venezuela’s 355 municipalities (Mission Barrio Adentro); and restoring the eyesight of some 300,000 Venezuelans while providing eye surgery to 1 million (Mission Milagro).
President Nicolás Maduro has continued this legacy, despite the duress imposed by the US-led unilateral coercive measures imposed in the years following Chávez’s death, ensuring not only that the country’s resources benefit the well-being of the majority, but also that power is given back to the people through a model of direct democracy. Weeks before he was kidnapped, for instance, Maduro convened the Constitutional Congress of the Working Class, the culmination of 22,110 assemblies in workplaces across the country in which delegates debated and made proposals to the president about the future of the country’s labor sector and productive processes, such as strengthening domestic production of machinery components in order to reduce external technological dependency. Aprobada (“approved”), Maduro told delegate María Alejandra Grimán Rondón as she presented him with the conclusions of the congress in front of a packed auditorium; for another proposal, “the method still needs to be refined”, he replied, outlining next steps for further debate.

What can I say about the Epstein files released that hasn't already been said?
Other than, Israel.
Margaret sums it up best here -> https://www.blackagendareport.com/epstein-files-shows-how-elites-move
Epstein was Jewish, but as documents now tell us, he was also a believer in Jewish supremacy who worked with officials in allegedly democratic nations on behalf of the international ruling class and zionists. Epstein’s ties to Israel are well known to anyone who has been following this story, but his attitudes about people who aren’t Jews, “goyim,” as he often wrote in his emails, is a new revelation. “This is the way the jew make money... and made a fortune in the past ten years, selling short the shipping futures, let the goyim deal in the real world,” is just one of the missives found among Epstein’s emails. When a Hollywood publicist asked if an event would be “100% Jew night,” he replied, “No, goyim in abundance-JPMorgan execs, brilliant WASPs.”
Any discussion of the topic of Jewish financial and political power is usually off limits, a sure means of being labeled anti-semitic. But the damning tranche of files and Epstein’s own words give a space for reporting what is documented.
What has been missing is a deeper dive into the web of relationships with prominent people such as corporate leaders, the Israeli government, and international financiers like Epstein himself. The emphasis on sex trafficking and sexual assaults of minors has quite rightly garnered great attention, but there are many more things we should know about Epstein and what his relationships tell us about how the world actually works.

The ultimate platitude that describes capitalism.
Capitalism is the democracy of delusion for the powerful, and the illusion of democracy for everyone else.
How's that for a platitude?
Had some issues with the blog template.
You may have noticed some black and white backgrounds, along with some black and white texts, all being messed up.
Anyways, I reverted back to an older and simpler format. We'll see if that works.
Can people finally concede that Israel is the ultimate settler/colonial expression of American Exceptionalism?
... the war economy provides growth, foreign currency earnings, and political insulation. This creates a structural incentive for permanent mobilization: war sustains demand, shields the government from accountability, and reinforces a worldview in which force is treated as the primary currency of international relations.
In this configuration, military aggression and territorial expansionism are the mechanisms through which the Israeli economy now seeks to reproduce itself. As a result, Israel’s governing coalition rests on permanent securitization. The war economy has become the organizing principle of political survival and regime insurance.
