Warmongers Conference (by Redacted)

   A sad sunset for Europe trying to stay relevant. They made a bet on Ukraine, then doubled down, and again. Now they're broke and about to lose their shirt. The low-key but long lasting war they expected in Ukraine is approaching a conclusion. They will have to pay for reconstruction, to replenish their stockpile of weapons while engaging in a commercial war with the US, their main strategic partner, a trade war with China, the rising superpower, and an energy war with Russia, their only source of cheap energy. This means accelerated decline in sight. By the end of the 2020s, Europe will be marginalized. 

 

European leaders had an emergency meeting to discuss the peace plan in Ukraine. Not because they want peace. They object to it.

The peace plan that President Trump has begun to negotiate with President Putin has them in a panic. They say it is because the plan does not involve the involvement of the Ukrainian President Zelensky. But...do you see him in this photo? You won't because he's not involved in this meeting either.

European leaders are pretending that a peace deal would set Russia upon the rest of Europe. That is unserious propaganda. They are trying to plan out how to keep the war going against Russia without U.S. troops or money. There is no way that they could do that. I explained it to my children this way: That would be like my 8 year-old daughter taking my 14 year-old son's room by force. It is not possible.

What kills me the most is who IS at this table. I put it this way when I first saw this photo: The front three people in this photo failed up and now have the power to lead Europe to war. Antonio Costa stepped down as Prime Minister in Portugal amid a corruption scandal linked to green initiatives but now he is the President of the European Counsel. Mark Rutte resigned as Prime Minister of the Netherlands before a No Confidence vote could remove him due to his failed liberal policies but now he runs NATO. Ursula Van Der Leyen lost direct constituency elections but was still installed to the Bundestag via the party list system. Now she is the President of the European Commission. None of them represent the people of Europe's appetite for war. The people of Europe do not have an appetite for war but these death eaters are trying to convince the world otherwise. May they finally begin to fail down!

Is Naples in DANGER of a Huge Volcanic Explosion???

   Here's a very interesting video about Campi Flegrei near Naples by an Italian who says almost exactly the opposite of the video I posted yesterday. 

  Yes, it would have been a good idea for people not to live inside a caldera in the first place but no, at this stage, we should do nothing!

  Where are people supposed to go? Who will pay? What about their work and lives? And sure enough, all these questions are valid. As we have seen in Japan following the great tsunami of 2011, moving even 200,000 people at the time to temporary accommodations was in itself a tragedy for many, and 15 years later some, especially the elderly still live there. Where could they go?  

  So in conclusion, yes, a tragedy in Naples could happen any day, but conversely a catastrophe is not certain at this stage, and this being Italy, most people prefer to take a chance. There have been many swarm earthquakes in the past which were not followed by an eruption. Of course, as for Pompeii, once in a while this didn't work so well. Qui vivra, verra! 


 

Will OpenAI Become the AOL of the AI Revolution?

  

Remember AOL? If you were around during the dawn of the internet, you’ll recall it as the gateway to the digital world. Before Google became a verb, AOL was the way to explore the web. Back then, the internet felt like an uncharted jungle—exciting but perilous. AOL positioned itself as the safe, curated guide, offering a walled garden of content that shielded users from the wilds of the web. For nearly a decade, it dominated. But then came Google, indexing the entire internet and making AOL’s closed ecosystem obsolete almost overnight. By 2004, AOL was already on the way out.

Fast forward to October 2022, when OpenAI unleashed ChatGPT 3.5, a groundbreaking AI chatbot that almost felt like magic. For many, it was their first taste of truly intelligent AI—a transformative experience that hinted at a future brimming with possibilities. OpenAI quickly became the undisputed leader in the AI space, much like AOL in its heyday. But as with AOL, cracks began to show very quickly. The company’s next major release, o1, pushed the boundaries of AI even further, edging closer to artificial general intelligence (AGI). Yet, like AOL, OpenAI faced a critical flaw: o1 was prohibitively expensive to run, and the company struggled to monetize it effectively.

Enter January 2025. DeepSeek, a rising competitor, launched its R1 model—a system with capabilities rivaling OpenAI’s but at a fraction of the cost. Not long after, X (formerly Twitter) unveiled Grok 3, another formidable contender. Suddenly, OpenAI’s dominance looked shaky. In response, the company merged o1 with ChatGPT 4, effectively downgrading its service to cut costs while maintaining its premium pricing. Sound familiar? It’s eerily reminiscent of AOL’s decline when it failed to adapt to a rapidly changing landscape.

Now, the question looms: Could DeepSeek be to OpenAI what Google was to AOL? While it’s too early to say for sure, DeepSeek has undeniably opened the floodgates for affordable, high-performance AI models. This shift has sparked a price war that could render expensive systems obsolete within a year—or even sooner. OpenAI’s upcoming o3 model may well compete on performance, but the company’s sky-high valuation is on shaky ground. With competitors offering similar capabilities at lower costs, and the looming possibility of cheap, locally-run AI models, OpenAI risks being outmaneuvered in the very market it helped create.

The parallels between AOL and OpenAI are striking. Both were pioneers, both dominated their respective eras, and both faced existential threats from more agile, cost-effective competitors. The lesson? In the fast-moving world of technology, being first doesn’t guarantee lasting success. OpenAI’s future hinges on its ability to adapt—or risk becoming a footnote in the history of AI, much like AOL in the annals of the internet.

 

 

Trevor Noah Suggests 'Integration' Of Black & White People Was A Mistake

  It is not a problem of "Black and White", the multi cultural society as advocated in the West (and in the West only!) is a mistake. Sure, multi-culturalism works fairly well at Google and other tech companies but that's because everybody is actually educated at Harvard or any other top university so that in the end, "diversity" is not what it is said to be. There is a diversity of skin color and culture but none of mind processes. Everybody is more or less "formatted" the same way. 

  No so for people in the street. There, you do not get a "melting pot" of ideas, but a water and oil rejection of lifestyles and mentalities which over decades completely fragments society. This is the problem most countries in Europe are grappling with right now to different degrees. 

  Unfortunately, this has been extremely profitable economically since a fragmented work force is far more pliable and likewise politically since people are consequently unable to coalesce on ideas to challenge the status quo.  

  Will society crack under stress? Historically, this has always been the case. People tend to regroup around common flags and ideas. Will this time be different? Well, we're about to find out!

Authored by Paul Joseph Watson via Modernity.news,

During an appearance on a podcast, comedian Trevor Noah suggested that the “integration” of black and white people in America was a mistake.

Noah said he had found himself “wondering” whether or not “integration was the right move,” particularly in the context of schooling, referring to the 1960’s civil rights era and the end of segregation.

The comedian made it clear that he thought the “racism” brought about by segregation was a bad thing and that people shouldn’t have been punished for their skin color in terms of being discriminated against in society.

However, he then pointed out that Finland was a stable, prosperous and high trust society largely because it is overwhelmingly homogenous.

“I think part of the reason Finland is able to do it is because, have you been to Finland? I’ve been to Finland. You know who’s in Finland? Finnish people. That’s it,” said Noah.

“And because they’re all Finnish, there’s an idea of like, no we’re all headed in the same direction, we all know what our actions mean.”

Noah then explained how it is far easier for people of similar ethnicities and cultures to communicate with each other without there being any confusion.

“Already there’s an implicit trust because we already know what certain actions, words and vibes mean,” he said.

Noah then asked Princeton Professor Ruha Benjamin if she thought “integration was the right solution” to the questions raised by the civil rights movement.

Benjamin responded that she didn’t think integration was the right solution and that “segregation and “integration weren’t the only options” because black people were forcefully integrated into a “supremacist culture.”

If a white person had made the same arguments, they’d be cancelled in a heartbeat.

But setting aside that for a moment, is Noah essentially correct?

You Are Completely F*cked. (Video - 17mn)

   The absolutely fascinating evolution of work over the last 30 years. The analysis of this video is profound and explains why society is plunging into despair and families are disappearing. The system we've built is not sustainable but then what? The video is not optimistic on what comes next, neither am I.

Shocking new Information from Leading Scientists about how DANGEROUS the situation really is !(Video - 27mn)

  Is Campi Flegrei, the volcano just below Naples about to explode?

  The magma has been rising regularly for over 20 years now, but suddenly the speed has been accelerating with a surge of earthquakes over the last 2 weeks. It may have reached less than 500 meters below ground!

  What is the chance of an eruption? According to local scientists, it may be extremely high and the volcano could explode ANY time. 

  The problem? Well, it's Italy. There are currently 500,000 people living in the caldera who should be evacuated immediately. But then, what about the 6 million inhabitants of Naples which is squeezed between Campi Flegrei and the Vesuvius? 

  If there is an eruption, even a mild one, we may have a catastrophe on the scale of Pompeii. The economy of Italy would be on its knees. 

  (PS: Look at the map at 19mn 15" - 500,000 people live in the Pozzuoli Circle and 6 million in the city of Naples.)


 

UNTHINKABLE: U.S. Just Threatened to CUT OFF China’s Oil Imports - It’s About to Get Ugly (Video - 14mn)

   So many black swans in the sky! Trump doesn't want war, sort of, but he most certainly wants hegemony. Will he be able to keep so many plates in the air at once? 

  Let's expect the best... and prepare for the worst!


 

What the F*** is going on in Germany? (Video - 15mn)

   The crash of Germany is not just industrial and economic, it is moral. The Germans have completely lost tracks of proportions, what's important and what is not. And while they protect assiduously the "feelings" of a few, they are in the process of plunging millions into poverty. 

  The reality is that Europe as it stands now is close to broke and will not survive long the downfall of Ukraine. European leaders know this and it is why they are so afraid and are ready to pull all stops to prevent this from happening. As such, Trump represents a mortal threat to the continent. The clock is ticking!

Idiocracy is Becoming Real (Video - 20mn)

   This is a profound question! Already the spellcheckers and GIS tools were "softening" our brains by helping us avoid bothering with spelling or remembering paths and itineraries. But with AI, we may be entering a world where you will have to bother with "nothing", just ask the AI whatever and enjoy your day watching another meme of people being stupid on YouTube. 

   So will the average people become stupider and stupider til dey cant writ an' tink no-mor? Unfortunately, I think this is likely. Look at their "representatives" in some Western countries, the people who represent them best and wonder: Is idiocracy the future or the present?

MASSIVE Civil Wars Could BREAK OUT This Weekend in the Middle East (Video - 48mn)

  A very interesting video. Unfortunately all the points more or less are reasonable. Not great for views these days. Still, Larry Johnson, a former CIA guy is far more interesting than most other people you will hear on many podcast. Reasonable but well worth the time.
