Why the US presidents should be pathologically worrisome and obsessive
Putting you into the position of the president of the United States of America brings you enormous moral obligations (even from the “normal morality” standpoint which I have little understanding of). Like all the politicians on the planet, you are restrained by the interest groups. You have 10,000 issues to solve, but they purposefully block…

Total parody of freedom of speech in academia
They say the freedom of speaking is most important. So academicians have a pretty difficult job to do because there is no freedom of speech. Promoting eugenics? The world of superhuman intelligence, zero criminals, no illnesses, wars or capitalism. You are dead to me! Not only races are not the same but they possess different…

The expulsion of German people from Eastern Europe as a necessity
German people were widespread all around Eastern Europe. But with all the horrors of the Second World War, they had been repatriated. Yes, collective guilt is unacceptable even though one of the highest memberships of NSDAP (from the whole Reich) was in areas of Czechoslovakia where Germans were dwelling. During the Czechoslovakia First Republic, the…

The big language wall between Czechia and Slovakia
This could be a sequel to “A language is a dialect with an army and navy”. German dialects are much more different than Czech and Slovakian languages. The Slovakian language is heavily influenced by the Czech one to the degree that it is mutually intelligible. There were times (during the rise of nationalism) when activists…

Hip-hop music to the detriment of the African-American population
In the USA, African-Americans are discriminated against everywhere it is possible but sadly the African-Americans have got addicted to Hip-hop music. So instead of showing the system that they can resist its oppression by studying to be engineers, scientists or politicians, building their strong willpower and hard work ethic, they listen to the genre that…

These liars offer you the 2-dimensional political spectrum. Here’s the reality
This is my modest suggestion on how the multidimensional spectrum should look like. But, of course, politicians and lobbyists are adamant. More redistribution/Less redistributionLiberal/ConservativeAnti-consumerism/ConsumerismTens of percent of GDP investing in science/Little investment in scienceTrillions of dollars for building whole countries/Little aidComplex grasp of what surplus value is and how to change the constellation of the…

The USA is a parody of capitalism
You would expect that the ring-wing-aligned US has proper, not malformed capitalism. Not only that it doesn’t give equal opportunities but the majority of the market and important branches of the economy are in the hands of the super-rich that control the country politically. Such political and economic deformity cannot lead to correct market mechanisms…

Why is Berlin devoid of skyscrapers? Politics as usual
The famous quote goes that Germany is “too big for Europe and too small for the world”. But 80 million people and their capital has only a few skyscrapers? My sensible readers are beginning to understand it. Politics = economy. Since Germany was totally defeated in WW2 (unlike during WW1), foreign capital started dominating Germany.…

We had gulags, concentration camps but the biggest open-air prison in the world is a novelty
The current state of this world allows you to bring back the Middle Ages (Afghanistan), reminiscence of the 30s Stalinist era (North Korea), Nazi Germany concentration camps (China), gulags (Russia) but Israel operating the biggest open-air prison on the planet for people who basically committed nothing is really a novelty. I don’t have to explain…
