Video:When our children are confined to a universal basic income, (#UBI) and have lost whatever freedom we had ........
Don’t dare say: “How did we get here.........?"

Photos:“THE DISTINCTION BETWEEN WORKER AND PAUPER VANISHED.”
To understand the catastrophic effects of #UBI, it’s worth considering the #Speenhamland system, a prototypical form of UBI enforced in rural #Britain in the early 1800's which was memorably analyzed in Eric #Hobsbawm’s classic book "Captain Swing".
The #Speenhamland system, like the UBI so deeply desired by the contemporary ruling class, allowed employers to lower wages below starvation levels because public finances would automatically take up the slack
"The traditional social order degenerated into a universal pauperism of demoralized men who could not fall below the relief scale whatever they did, and who equally could not rise above it ..."

This is how we know that, far from being the bumbling fool both he and the media like to portray him as, #Boris #Johnson in fact actually did everything his paymasters required of him.........otherwise they wouldn't reward him like this, would they?
BORIS JOHNSON TIPPED FOR NATO JOB
The outgoing UK prime minister could replace Jens Stoltenberg as secretary general of the alliance next year, The Telegraph says
Senior members of the Conservative Party are backing the prospect of outgoing British Prime Minister Boris Johnson becoming the next #NATO secretary general, The Telegraph has reported.
The current chief of the US-led military bloc Jens #Stoltenberg is “widely expected to stand down in September next year,” leaving the high-profile defense position open, the paper said.
This timing would provide Johnson with “some time to recharge his batteries” after a three-year run as British pri...

This study, also from the Netherlands, describes how distinct networks of spread are formed by heterosexual and homosexual networks.
Below is a simplified figure that shows how transmission within a heterosexual network can loosely be modelled by a bipartite graph, where men transmit to women but not men, and women transmit to men but not women. However, in a homosexual network there is no such separation between nodes, so they have significantly higher connectivity, which means disease can transmit to more nodes in more ways, and the average distance between nodes is shorter in an exponential manner.
This is an important concept in describing the reality of the current Monkeypox outbreak, and explains one reason why homosexuals in particular are such concentrated reservoirs for a variety of diseases. The fact they also adopt behaviours like casually having many anonymous partners, practices involving the exchange of bodily fluids, and even phenomena like bugchasing, only increases this.

💢 Ukraine shells their own prisoners in the DPR - "stop talking!"
Ukrainian armed formations fired at the prison in Yelenovka, presumably from an American HIMARS MLRS. A direct hit in the barracks with prisoners led to the death of at least 40 people, another 130 were injured.
The figures may increase with further analysis of the rubble, said the First Deputy Minister of Information of the DPR Daniil Bezsonov
"The military-political leadership of Ukraine, apparently, decided to get rid of unnecessary ballast. Now these bastards will still have to be protected from shelling," @NeoficialniyBeZsonoV commented on the incident
“Interestingly, the attack on the colony in Yelenovka, during which, according to preliminary data, 40 "prisoners of Azovstal" were killed, the Ukrainians hit occurred against the backdrop of numerous interviews of captured "Azovites" that appeared in various media in recent days. The Azov militants talked a lot about their crimes against the civilian population, extrajudicial executions, torture ... And also about the fact that the country's top leadership was involved in terror against civilians.
Of course, Himars' strike at the former invaders is both an attempt to shut their mouths forever and intimidate those who survived. Although, I don’t even doubt that the murder of captured militants will be dumped on Russia. Or has it already been?”

The controversy over the reasons for former German Chancellor Gerhard Schröder’s decision to spend his vacation in Moscow arose among German users of the social network Twitter on July 26.
The debate erupted after a correspondent of the German TV channel NTV met Schröder in Moscow. Schröder told him that he was in Moscow “on vacation for several days.” The correspondent’s observation about the proximity of Schröder’s hotel to the headquarters of the Russian oil company Rosneft surprised the former German chancellor. “Really? Oh, indeed, you’re right,” he reacted.
Twitter user Andy Pretzsch questioned whether Schroeder really went to Moscow on vacation. “Maybe Schröder is doing some negotiations for Scholz. Why else would he be in Moscow?” he wrote.
“Maybe he is negotiating. When he was chancellor, such things were discussed at the highest level, but with a dysfunctional government in Germany this is impossible!,” user Thomas Bude supported him.

🇷🇺🇺🇦 Judging by the way the bodies of the Azovites executed by Zelensky are located, they were sleeping at the time of the shelling. The time of the strike is two in the morning, and this hour was not chosen by chance. The goal was to destroy everyone. They were beaten not just with artillery, but with Himars MLRS, a pretty accurate weapon for killing. All representatives of the Kiev regime boasted about his pinpoint strikes.
Well, dear Ukrainians, how do you like the cynicism of your rulers? They called these prisoners of war heroes from all the screens, and when they began to expose their crimes, they were killed in cold blood!!
You say you're fighting for freedom?? Well, well, in my opinion, there can be no worse slavery than you have now. Slaves are at least spared, but you are driven like cattle to the slaughter.
Look at the bodies of your own dead soldiers, your own scum-rulers. Maybe now, finally, your rose-colored glasses will fall off and you will take a sober look at what is happening!

THE DARK SCENARIO: UKRAINE’S MILITARY CAN’T BEAT RUSSIA AND COLLAPSES
#Ukraine has been suffering upwards of 1,000 total #casualties per day in the Donbas since mid-April, after losing thousands of their best fighters in the battle for #Mariupol.
Most of these losses have been to their most experienced and toughest fighters.
Replacements that have continued to come in often do not have even the most rudimentary of training; one study by the Modern War Institute estimated that “just 20 percent (of the Ukrainian personnel in replacement units sent to the front) had even fired a weapon before heading to #combat.”
As more of the original contingent of trained personnel are killed or wounded, the remaining force of inexperience and insufficiently trained troops will be at increased risk of collapse.
The reason: success or failure in modern combat rests not just on having trained individual soldiers and proper volumes of the right kit, but on having experienced and well-trained units.
I cannot overstate the harm done to the Ukrainian Army in the loss of its troops – especially the tactical leaders at platoon, company, and battalion levels – since the war started last February, nor on the harm this loss has done to Ukraine’s ability to mount a credible counter-offensive threat.
While it’s not optimal for replacements to be taught basic combat skills at the front, those that survive can become quite capable.......

DAY 150 OF THE RUSSO-UKRAINIAN WAR
"While #Krasnopal laser-guided munitions have destroyed hundreds of military vehicles, they too are not this war’s principal widow-maker.
That honor belongs to old-school 152-mm shells coupled with humble #Orlan10 #drones.
Perhaps the most basic of the 30 Russian-made drones, the Orlan-10 uses a gasoline-fueled piston engine to power a single-propeller plane with a 2-meter wingspan.
Orlan-10s rely on rubber-band powered catapults for launch and parachutes to land.
Orlan-10s carry retail, made-in-the-USA GPS systems and off-the-shelf Canon cameras.
Nevertheless, Orlan-10s remain airborne for 16 hours at 5-kilometer altitudes whilst signaling real-time data to communication hubs 600 kilometers away.
Typical front-line "battles" consist of Orlan-10s beaming video of Ukrainian troops back to Russian communication hubs which then radio coordinates to batteries of four MSTA howitzers.
The MSTAs then rumble into firing positions up to 25 kilometers from the spotted Ukrainians.
Within one minute the MSTAs simultaneously fire 6 rounds each before driving off to elude counter-artillery.
Each round carries a 45-kilogram shrapnel, or incendiary, bomb.
The Russian Information Agency recently recounted a day wherein 157 such "battles" took place.
The Russians experienced ZERO CASUALTIES."
