The War on Terror – because of 3000 we will kill a million
Basically every time the US wage war on something it has an ugly end. Around 3000 people were killed during 9/11. The US government misused this event for restricting civic freedoms and the military-industrial complex has got its chance. So, the US began waging wars. The Afghan crusade resulted in 200 thousand killings. The Iraqi…

Business-made philosophy – how the super-rich wanted the proper philosophy (analytic philosophy)
Initiatives arise from people or background eminences – a few examples of people’s initiatives: anti-war sentiments, abolition of childhood labor, Black Lives Matter, Women’s Suffrage Movement; a few examples of background eminences’ initiatives: corruption fight at the end of the 19th and beginning of 20th century in the USA, woke culture, LGBTQ+, global corruption fight…

Is Noam Chomsky part of the US establishment? And my positive things to say about the US
Nobody can imagine a critic so harsh on the USA as Noam Chomsky is. But his presence started to be so stable and expectable that makes me think he is a part of the US establishment. This genius strongly believes that he is able to reproduce complicated things to blue-collar workers with simple language. Non-starter.…

Museum of Capitalistic Crimes and Museum of Communist Crimes
As an anti-socialist, anti-communist, and a man who wants heavily regulated capitalism, I found it utterly funny that after the Velvet Revolution in Czechoslovakia, the new regime did exactly what new regimes do – blame all of its own mistakes on the preceding regime. So the old regime didn’t have any benefits, only liabilities. So…

State atheism as a preferable model? The 21st century is the century of religion!
Welcome to the 21st century! The age of science, artificial intelligence, renewable energy, sustainability, space exploration, social media – and now guess what – yes, religion. Christianity: Approximately 2.3 billion adherentsIslam: Approximately 1.9 billion adherents (while the world’s population is projected to grow 32% in the coming decades, the number of Muslims is expected to…

Preventable diseases vs. wars, mass shootings and terrorism
Given our prehistoric instincts, when a mass murder happens, it drives everyone’s attention. The Gaussian curve has deviations and one of the extremes of the extreme are people who go and shoot a lot of folks (tragic, but hardly preventable, and if preventable, then with high reasonable costs). Local wars (I really don’t mean a…

Was Kissinger worse than Hitler? Was he given the power…
The worst people are not your common criminals but people with suits and ties. And those with the sole intent of grabbing power. And Henry Kissinger knew how to grab power. His only idea was realpolitik (a system of politics or principles based on practical rather than moral or ideological considerations). No ideals, no morals,…

Why the formal educational system was created? Enlightenment, competition, wars
Measuring causality in history is a nonexistent thing. The historians are not mathematicians and don’t want to be ones. The factor analysis is a great tool but is rarely used. Finding causality in history is on par with celebrity gossip. We don’t know why the massive formal educational system was created. Have the elites wanted…

Weren’t Hitler an antisemite, he could have had the atomic bomb first
Who would say that the turn of war was thwarted by such a stupid thing as xenophobia? And yes, the European universities before WW2 were the best in the world and Americans were sending their best people there (unlike now). And given the Jewish superior intelligence, they performed far more than excellently at those universities.…

Politicians and journalists would love to get rid of the lobbyists and super-rich interest groups, but people are the problem
Despite people denying being influenced by political commercials and TV with the obvious agenda, the opposite is true. People love establishment news offering only those parties tied to the super-rich groups. It same goes with social media. And what do the lobbyists and super-rich do? They completely destroy the political system (they are damaging the…
