Dec 30 2025 Pepe Escobar: How political analysis became a target of A.I. fakes
Welcome to A.I. turning the net into an infernal machine bent on erasing meaning, culture and History – and sowing deep intellectual confusion. Exactly like Techno-Feudalism wants it.
Strategic Culture
A.I. is fast expanding as a plague all along the internet spectrum. That’s quite predictable, considering the Big Tech model for A.I. is techno-feudalism, relying on profit… Continue reading

Dec 30 2025 Berletic: US Seeks Greenland Grab as Pursuit of Primacy Accelerates
All under the guise of “pursuing peace” in a proxy war the US itself engineered, and is, for all intents and purposes, fighting against Russia simply through its Ukrainian proxies.
The US continues setting the stage for wider and more dangerous escalation — both in terms of expanding an emerging global maritime blockade against Russian, Iranian, and… Continue reading -
Dec 30 2025 Prof Jiang Xueqin: Jesus vs The Church Paul Built
The story of the finding of Christianity as you’ve never heard it.
In this lecture-style historical analysis, we examine one of the most consequential questions in the history of religion: How did a Jewish reform movement centered around Jesus become a Roman-empire-wide institution called Christianity—built on doctrines that often diverge from Jesus’s own ethical teachings?

Dec 29 2025 Don’t like cryptocurrencies, don’t like CBDC, huh? You may be a westerner
Some cryptocurrencies are dirty. The question is if it is the cryptocurrency or is it what criminals do with it? How is it more dirty than the dollar? I won’t touch a western stablecoin and CBDC in the west is highly questionable.
But, Oh Man! I do like this. The Unit is outclassed, outmatched and drowning… Continue reading

Dec 29 2025 The failed US war on drugs vs China’s opium war
China had an incomparably worse drug situation than the US until the end of WWII because of UK imperialism, which forced the opium trade on the Chinese.

From the Russian MFA
Colleagues,
Since it is December 29 today, and the New Year is just round the corner, an interesting – from a political point of view too – detail can be mentioned: in the outgoing year, President Vladimir Putin held 17 contacts with US representatives.

Dec 29 2025 Trump on the road to capitulation
Rostislav Ishchenko
First, comments by Larchmonter
✅The US ambassador to NATO said 90 days more. That is also the political deadline for Trump to give Republicans his policy: Peace on Putin’s terms or War on Zelensky’s terms. Trump doesn’t have a say. He just has a decision to make. The House election will be about the economy,… Continue reading

Dec 29 2025 China’s mediation in Cambodia-Thailand conflict
Trump again, by inference, claimed some kind of influence on the Cambodia-Thailand mediation for a lasting peace agreement. China, in turn, said little, but created a media extravaganza with photos. They posted the images at the Foreign Affairs site to show who was responsible and a real part of the process and left the Chinese… Continue reading

Dec 29 2025 India, Russia & China are closing ranks — the Dollar is feeling the HEAT
India takes over the BRICS presidency from January 1, 2026 — and this timing matters. US pressure tactics have done the opposite of what was intended: they’ve pushed India, Russia, and China closer together, turning BRICS into a far more coordinated bloc.
🇺🇸😱 Earlier this year, Donald Trump openly threatened 100% tariffs on BRICS nations —… Continue reading
