Strategic Dissipation

Big Serge explains why Ukraine has already lost its war: Ukraine’s overarching strategic concept would appear to be pulling in two directions. Verbally, Zelensky has tied the prospects for negotiations to a de-escalation of the war on Russia’s part (while excluding categorically any negotiations relevant to Russia’s own war aims), but Ukraine’s own actions – […]

"As of this writing, fully three weeks of web content have not been archived. What we are missing and what has changed is anyone’s guess. And we have no idea when the service will come back. It is entirely possible that it will not come back, that the only real history to which we can take recourse will be pre-October 8, 2024, the date on which everything changed."

Not only will Twitter not be playing Whack A Mole with accounts that post evidence of election fraud like it was last time, Twitter will be actively helping the process of exposing it if it happens this time.

This will be a gamechanger this election I think. You can question Musk's motives for this, but that doesn't change this fact.

Very revealing article by Bezos:

Reality is an undefeated champion. It would be easy to blame others for our long and continuing fall in credibility (and, therefore, decline in impact), but a victim mentality will not help. Complaining is not a strategy.

What seems like humility and taking ownership is really just damage control by the Cathedral. They realize that the radical right and other alternatives are outflanking them on every imaginable side. Disclose.tv, Telegram channels like CIG, and smaller outlets like The Noticer are crushing them in journalism. LLMs (most promisingly, open source LLMs) are replacing the need for Google. Temu and Alibaba undercutting Amazon. Twitter now allows radical right talking points. Imperium, Counter-Currents, and individual creators of courses are replacing higher education with a superior alternative. Urbit may even replace DNS hosting. They are in real trouble when the payment processor gatekeeping party is over.

So this is Bezos trying to get out in front of it. But it's not an apology, not an admission of failure in journalism. He still believes WaPo have the finest journalists around. They don't. Their journalists are below the level of people who do it for free, whom he calls "unsourced". No—for Bezos, the failure is a branding issue. That is all they plan on fixing.

Don't buy their fake ownership of the issue. Keep pushing, keep fighting, stay the course. The beast is wounded and admitting to this in full public view. The coup de grace will come, sooner than you think.

"Over the last year there has a been a rise in the clubs across the country, influenced by the international trend of creating small fascist martial arts groups going by the name 'Active Clubs'."

The desperation of Kamala Harris and her campaign is clear. They’ve pivoted from “politics of joy” to “night falls on America” because her incoherent explanation of joy confused everyone. So, she went back to the same playbook: Trump’s a fascist, his followers are dangerous. But we know who doesn’t buy this—the working class, and especially African American and Hispanic men. —Steve Bannon
