Technologically dominant America. Why?
Helmut Schmid’s famous quote goes: “The biggest problem in politics is the stupidity of people.” I have heard comments like this: “Europe is busy with immigrants, genders and ecology meanwhile the US are dominant force in technology.” The quote by Helmut Schmidt, of course, applies even in this case. For every complicated question, there is…

Super-rich in control of AI? Huge race, competition and war
The Western world consists of global banks such as Goldman Sachs, JPMorgan Chase, and Deutsche Bank that are interconnected through ownership stakes, shared board members, and secret agreements. They are owned by super-rich families. Major capital flows are present with such actors as lobbyists and politicians and their subsequent power networks creating the international order.…

Is America really Christian? No way!
Christianity teaches love as a central principle, urging compassion and kindness toward others. It emphasizes caring for the poor, sick, and marginalized, reflecting Christ’s actions and teachings. This care extends to forgiveness, encouraging individuals to let go of resentment and seek reconciliation. Christianity values humility, promoting the idea that serving others is noble and virtuous.…

Saving people from dying? People say no!
My readers know that people are nothing but selfish animals with morality closer to moral nihilism than perfect total utilitarianism. What about when redistributed wealth (for example, the US government) can do little to save millions? Saving people from dying? People say no! This all stems from our evolutionary equipment driven by nothing but selfish…

The super-rich against Global warming
In recent decades, the discourse on climate change has moved from scientific discussions to political and economic arenas. Among the most surprising players in this narrative are super-rich families, which have increasingly aligned themselves with the global warming alarmist agenda. This partnership raises questions about the motivations and implications of their support. When did we…

But since Biden’s (the most powerful man only in paper) departure from office, can Elon Musk be the new George Soros for Donald Trump? This article outlines the differences between those two lobbyists…

A mere criminal less dangerous than the super-rich
Nobody wants to be personally robbed. However, petty theft is a widespread crime. It includes shoplifting, pickpocketing, and similar offenses. Rates vary greatly between regions. In 2016, the global average was 783 incidents per 100,000 people. Senegal reported only 1 per 100,000. Denmark reported 3,949 per 100,000. It sounds huge, so is a mere criminal…

Economics and psychometrics? What is a pseudoscience?
Economics and psychometrics share some of the same features. They are undoubtedly humanities. We cannot go without relationships between inflation, unemployment, interest rates, and so on. However, economics is undoubtedly a pseudoscience. It basically cannot predict crisis, human behavior, heavily depends on mathematical formalism without real-world application, and so on. Psychometrics offers huge numbers of…

Critical thinking: List of suspicious deaths in the US
Where is the rational line between the infinite number of deaths claimed by conspiracy theorists (and some “conspiracy theories” are right) and a rational approach that is devoid of cognitive biases, fallacies, and formal errors, yet acknowledges the existence of governments’ extrajudicial killings? These killings are evident in countries like Russia, China, and, yes, the…

Criminal government. What government isn’t criminal?
The Czech Republic has the privilege to have a dissident who, having suffered under communism, has turned his back. Nevertheless, Petr Cibulka started to claim that the only possible way out of the decay the Czech Republic was and is experiencing is the Swiss model of direct democracy that, in my opinion, doesn’t work even…
