  • I’m not paying for Telegram and I haven’t noticed missing out anywhere because of it. I’m using the APK file instead of the Play Store version because the latter censors Russian media channels (and I hate censorship). I wasn’t even aware there were premium accounts.

    I’m in 2 dozen channels, have a few friends who mainly use Telegram instead of the competitors and I haven’t noticed a single issue, except for their homegrown encryption scheme.









  • Around 2010 there was this “pledge” where a website people basically collected a list of things they’d require in order to stop pirating tv shows and movies and I think it came down to:

    Provide easy access to large library Provide multi language support, must offer original language Allow downloads/offline viewing Be reasonably priced

    Plus some additional stuff I can’t remember.

    When Netflix got big, they basically covered it all. Then everyone wanted a piece of the pie.

    Back to piracy then. 15$ for put.io ✨🙏







  • Have you read any of it or did you just skim Wikipedia? I’m perfectly aware of people’s biases and that he’s likely to tend towards a pro-Russian spin. But after years of researching I can’t deny that a lot of his claims aren’t that unlikely.

    I’m not here to convince you. OP asked, I answered.

    From a Western perspective, you’ll have a hard time reading fringe criticism of the West without someone chanting “bUt tHiS iS RuSSian prOpAganDa” from the sides. The immediate shift in reporting about Ukrainian politics in Western media was so blatantly obvious propaganda and yet you come at me with this.

    We’ve all been fed propaganda since the 40s, from all sides, in every country, the media is either heavily centralized or state-controlled, no journalist covering socialist/anarchist topics is likely to dig deeper into this (hell, they’re likely fighting for truth in smaller areas where they can actually move the needle, more power to them), we have almost no real journalists with reach and impact left, Assange has shown that investigative journalism is as good as dead, we’re being fed Ministry of Truth crap as “fact checks” and we’ve all been programmed with our go-to responses for dissenting voices. I’ve had my share of normie “Anarchists” coming at me only to debunk their BS as centrist garbage dressed in nice patches, shirts and rhetorics.

    Have you debated a historian at a university about Fomenko (and they actually read it!) and hit them with facts until they had to admit that a lot of our history was under strict control of very few influential people of shady untrustworthy organisations and that there’s no irrefutable proof that certain documents, drawing and writings haven’t been either been manipulated or may be outright forgeries and that there’s a lot of trust involved in keeping it all together?

    Just consider it a hobby interest of mine if it makes you sleep any better. If you read at least one of Fomenko’s books, let’s debate without resorting to boring “you’re basically Putin’s right hand” rhetoric.

    Edit: To be clear, I’m not into genetics, I don’t care who belongs to which race, I don’t want to paddle to any nation state that their narrative about some race being superior is true. I can read scholars without having to adopt their entire world view.





  • Two things can be true at the same time:

    • Government aligned capitalist profiteurs have been extracting value from the Earth for more than a century, causing massive damage to the ecosystem
    • Governments have some control over the weather (from 1965, National Science Foundation)

    I mean, just look at The Dimming and tell me that they’re all just stupid idiots who spent money and time on making a 2+ hour documentary, modifying planes to collect cloud samples, analyse and compare the results, etc? For what? Getting rich selling merchandise?

    Sure, I’m open to all of them being quacks but I’d really like to have some conclusive counter-evidence.


  • Thanks so much attempting to bring at least some nuance into this discussion. But the cold hard truth is that no one really wants to know, because you’ll sleep a lot better if this is all just mumbojumbo.

    Unfortunately though, here is a research paper straight from a US government server that basically describes how it works in theory, with the following title:

    Weather as a Force Multiplier: Owning the Weather in 2025

    Scroll through the document. Read it. Then compare the technology to what’s being claimed about HAARP and other weather manipulation tech. I know there are insane people out there who’ll make the most insane claims but for every 100th nutjob there’s 1 person out there who actually read up on the stuff that’s available and often they’re a lot more hesitant on calling it all just a hoax.

    Unfortunately the truth is that people don’t care. Just look at the rhetoric used in these comments. Why would scientists come forward and risk being doxxed, ratted out to their employer as a lunatic conspiracy nut, claiming that is might be possible, even if just in theory?

    We had the mayor of Ankara in Turkey claiming that artificial earth quakes were used against Turkey way before 2023, though the USS Nitze docked in a Turkish port in the Black Sea just a couple of days before the February 6th earthquakes), right when Turkey was stalling for Sweden to join NATO. There’s videos out there of people filming bright blue-ish lights coming from a central source the night before the earthquakes happened.

    The longest time I thought this was all bullshit but the more I dug into it, the less I was able to convince myself that this is all just made up nonsense from idiots on the Internet. I’m not on the “it’s all HAARP!!” train but come on, let’s keep the discussion a bit more civil?
