Russian and Ukrainian mentalities: Differences and similarities
Russia and Ukraine were not born as enemies. Their roots stretch back to the same civilization—Kievan Rus—the medieval state that laid the foundations for Slavic culture and Orthodox Christianity. Yet from this shared origin, two very different paths emerged. Geography, foreign domination, religion, and psychology shaped two distinct ways of thinking. Russia evolved under the…

Democracy is a shitty system. Voters know nothing. Voters are shit
This claim comes from Jaroslav Haščák, co-founder of the Penta Group and one of the most powerful men in Slovak business. His words, caught in the infamous Gorilla recordings, shocked the public but also revealed something deeper. Behind the vulgar tone lies an uncomfortable truth about how elites see democracy — not as an ideal,…

Evolutionary origins of political corruption
Political corruption is often described as a moral failure, a symptom of greed, or a defect of governance. Yet its roots go much deeper than law or ideology. Corruption is not a modern disease of politics—it is an ancient pattern of behavior shaped by evolution. Long before governments existed, humans traded favors, protected kin, and…

Practical obstacles to the global government
The dream of a global government has always fascinated visionaries. It promises peace, coordination, and equality across the planet. Yet in reality, the world is ruled not by ideals but by entrenched structures of power. These structures exist both in the wealthy West and in developing regions. Super-rich families, banks, and lobbyists dominate advanced economies.…

Freethinkers, but restrained by everything
Freethinkers present themselves as challengers of dogma, defenders of independence, and voices of courage. Yet their reality is far less heroic. They face walls built by culture, academia, and money. Some ideas move easily with the current, while others drown before they ever surface. Power chooses which ones may live and which must vanish. Truth…

Global health care system? 90 million people could live in a decade

It would not just prevent millions of deaths every year—it would raise the quality of life for billions. Contrary to what many assume, it would not be prohibitively expensive, even for developed countries. And more importantly, it would prove…

Why we don’t want Russian values
Russia constantly claims to offer an alternative to the Western world. It speaks of “traditional values”—order, faith, patriotism, and family. To many disillusioned by Western politics, this sounds appealing. However, Russian values are not spiritual or moral. Rather, they are hierarchical, brutal, and enforced through fear. What the Kremlin markets as stability is, in reality,…

Nationalize the Vatican’s power and wealth
The Vatican is more than a spiritual institution. It functions as a global empire. For centuries, it has blended religion, politics, finance, and secrecy. It owns land, runs banks, shapes diplomacy, and influences morality. Although it presents itself as sacred, it operates like a state—yet enjoys legal and financial privileges that no other power on…

West has been destroying Middle East and never helped
The pattern is undeniable. Western powers invade, topple governments, and bomb cities. Then they walk away. No justice follows. And no rebuilding takes place. No responsibility is ever accepted. As a result, the Middle East remains shattered. Its people suffer in silence. Its cities lie in ruins. Those who flee often die at sea, rot…

They control politicians from behind. People don’t care
I wrote tons of articles about how politics is a hostage of Big Banks, super-rich families and international companies. And it wasn’t just me. Of course, I immerse into details, revealing – at least I hope – the whole truth. The mainstream media, however, give you more than an important hint. Guess what? Even highly…
