Because You Wanted It

WOMEN: We should get paid the same as men because there should be equal pay for equal work!

ALSO WOMEN: Why the fuck are women expected to work on their period? I’m sitting here at work keeled over in intense pain wearing a fucking diaper because my uterus is self destructing and l׳m expected to wear tight business casual clothing pants, be friendly to coworkers, AND do my work? Fuck this fucking sexist misogynistic society that tells women to suffer through several days of intense pain and act completely normally. I shouldn’t have to take a sick day every month and be looked at like a slacker because my body is losing a gallon of blood and tissue a day.

Prior to being “liberated” she would not have been expected to show up to an office and put in the same effort and hours as a man regardless of her physical state, but accepting false premises invariably leads to suboptimal consequences.

If you’re a young woman, think very, very carefully about what you actually want, not what some ugly Jewish feminists from the 1960s told you that you should want. Because if you pursue it, you’re probably going to get it. And while being a man is many things, two of those things are not “easy” or “fun”. Also, it’s exceedingly stupid to follow the path set by mentally unstable women whose lives were burning trash fires and whose ends were ugly.

No one was more important to the birth and flourishing of early women’s liberation than this singular persona. Shulamith Firestone died alone in New York, in her East Village apartment, where apparently she had expired some days before. No one had known of her passing.

Report: US Intelligence Backed Kiev Strikes

If the French military and media are to be believed, it would appear the USA has effectively ruled itself out of any future peace talks:

Ukraine could not have carried out a large-scale attack on Russian airfields using drones without information from US intelligence. This was stated by a former senior officer of the French army, Guillaume Ansel.

“This is possible and conceivable only with the support of satellite communications. Ukrainians do not have such systems, and if they were able to act remotely, then, of course, thanks to the USA,” — Mr. Ansel told the newspaper Le Monde.

We are talking about attacks by the Armed Forces using FPV drones on airfields in the Murmansk, Irkutsk, Ivanov, Ryazan and Amur regions. The Ministry of Defense reported the fire of several units of equipment.

CNN June 2 wrote with reference to sources that US Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth knew about the attacks of the Armed Forces on Russian facilities and regularly received relevant information. At the same time, according to the interlocutor, the White House authorities did not inform about this.

Important Caveat: the European Union and the Kiev regime are desperately attempting to enmesh the US military into fighting the war in Ukraine for them. So, I wouldn’t trust any report from any French source, or indeed, any Clown World source, with regards to US involvement in any attack on Russia.

RIP Jim Marshall

Jim Marshall, a defensive end whose 19-year tenure with the Minnesota Vikings helped define the team’s hard-nosed identity, has died, the team announced Tuesday afternoon. He was 87.

“The entire Minnesota Vikings organization is mourning the loss of Jim Marshall. No player in Vikings history lived the ideals of toughness, camaraderie and passion more than the all-time iron man,” Minnesota’s owners said in a statement.

Marshall played 282 games (starting 277) during an unusually long career for any era; the former number is still a record for defensive players. He was weeks shy of his 42nd birthday when he played his final game in 1979.

Bud Grant: “Jim Marshall was special.”

Civilian Infrastructure is Fair Game

  • Ukraine’s SBU claims it carried out an attack on the Kerch Strait Bridge from Russia to Crimea, placing 1,100 kg of explosives on the bridge’s supports under water.
  • Reports now coming in saying there has been a SECOND significant explosion at the Kerch Strait Bridge.
  • RUSSIA: “The Kerch bridge has been reopened to the public and is now safe to use. This was an attack on a major civilian infrastructure, the longest bridge in Europe. I don’t see any western leader condemning it, please don’t cry when we retaliate.”

From Kill Chain to Kill Web

The recent air battle between India and Pakistan does not bode well for the US military’s chances against China in the South Pacific:

China was building a “Kill Chain” against any US military intervention near China’s shores. The Kill Chain was focused on what Brose termed “Assassin’s Mace” – asymmetrical weapon systems, primarily hypersonic missiles, that could prevent US forces in its Western Pacific military bases, aircraft carrier groups, and strike fighters from approaching the theatres of operations that include Taiwan, the South China Sea and the East China Sea. Such a strategy is called Anti-Access Area Denial (A2AD).

In the recent India Pakistan air combat, we have witnessed an indirect manifestation of the Chinese military concept and capabilities, which is the driving force behind Pakistan’s stellar combat performance.

The battlefield actions clearly show that China has evolved from the linear “kill chain” to a “kill web” that integrates diverse platforms, sensors, and weapons across domains to create overlapping, resilient attack vectors, ensuring mission success even in high intensity combat environment.

The systems warfare in the India Pakistan air combat consists of Chinese J-10C fighters, PL-15E air to air missile, HQ-9P air defense systems, and EDK-03 early warning aircrafts. These weapon systems executed a perfect triangulated attack vector now referred to as the ABC kill web: A (HQ-9P) – detect, B (J-10C) – shoot, and C (EDK-03) – guide. This beyond-visual-range kill web took down multiple expensive Indian fighter jets without losses of any own assets.

Such sensor-shooter fusion technology is the defining feature of future air combat.

Of course, the India Pakistan air combat demonstrated only a few elements of the multi-domain full Kill Web that China has developed. Also the weapon systems used by the Pakistan air force is a full generation behind what is deployed at the PLA.

China’s full A2/AD platform encompasses a comprehensive suite of weaponry and systems, including various air and naval assets, hypersonic missiles, and other novel weapons such as the one-of-a-kind CH-T1 Ground Effect UAV (which I’ll discuss in a separate article).

China’s warfighting doctrine and capabilities have evolved much further than the Kill Chain described by Brose 5 years ago. The Kill Web is a multi-layered, redundant, and networked arsenal to achieve mission objectives in China’s A2AD strategy.

In early 2022, I pointed out, contra experts like Lind and Van Creveld, that Russia was going to win the war in Ukraine. There certainly weren’t any politicians or generals across the West who agreed with me. Now I’m pointing out, as I have for some time now, that the USA will lose any war it chooses to fight with China in the South Pacific.

Somehow, I doubt the politicians and generals will pay me any more heed than they did three years ago.

There is No Joe Biden

But there were certainly six fake ones. President Trump draws attention to one of the more outlandish Q assertions:

President Trump has sent the country into an uproar after sharing what his haters are calling a “conspiracy theory” regarding Joe Biden.

Trump shared a post on his Truth Social from a user called llijh. In her post, she alleges Biden was executed in 2020 and has been replaced by a clone.

The president presented the post entirely without comment.

“There is no #JoeBiden – executed in 2020. #Biden clones doubles & robotic engineered soulless mindless entities are what you see. >#Democrats dont know the difference,” the post from llijh states.

As always, the only thing that we can be certain of is that the mainstream narrative is false. So far, Clown World’s propaganda machine has already altered the Official Story enough to admit that Joe Biden was non compos mentis for the entirety of his fake term to which he was never elected in the first place. How much further it will be altered remains to be seen.

What I find most interesting is the repetition of the claim that Biden was executed, which has also been made of John McCain, Hilary Clinton, and other major political figures. We know the Deep State exists, we know there is a resistance to it that appears to be centered in military circles, particularly military intelligence, but we don’t actually know much more than that. So the fact that President Trump is drawing our attention to such things is interesting, regardless of his real reasons for doing so.

An Irrelevant Innovation

Larry Johnson cites an estimate that three percent of Russia’s strategic air fleet was either damaged or destroyed in the recent drone attack on five of its airfields and concludes that NATO intelligence officers were involved in the attack:

In my opinion, none of these attacks could have been planned and executed without assistance, if not the direct involvement, of Western intelligence and NATO officers. The drones likely were activated by a remote signal made possible by Western satellites and/or systems like Starlink. Those systems also played a critical role in enabling the drones to navigate to the targeted airfields.

While this is clearly a PR victory for Ukraine, it is a classic example of a Pyrrhic victory–i.e., a tactical win, leading to a strategic defeat. The Trump administration is denying any knowledge of the attack. I take that disavowal with a big grain of salt. People within the CIA and USEUCOM offices, who are providing assistance to Ukraine, likely knew about the plan, and may even have provided intelligence support to get the drones to their targets. Like any covert operation, they may have tried to give Trump plausible deniability, but the Russians know how this game is played.

I expect Russia will launch a massive retaliatory strike after the talks in Istanbul on Monday conclude. The Ukrainian attacks on the bridges, the train and the airfields have done nothing to alter the situation all along the line of contact in Ukraine. News continues to pour in from the front, from both Ukrainian and Russian news outlets, painting a picture of growing desperation, even panic, among Ukrainian forces, as Russians capture more territory and kill more Ukrainian troops.

The thing that is so pointless about these sorts of clever little innovations is that they are the sort of things that tend to appear after the outcome of the war is already determined, but the losing side hasn’t accepted its defeat yet. The flashy nature of the drone attacks reminds me of the German ME 262 and ME 163 jets, which between them shot down 542 Allied aircraft, and the Japanese kamikazes that sunk or damaged 402 ships.

Both were innovations that captured the imagination and succeeded in producing material results, but at a scale that was totally irrelevant to the outcome of the war.

Upon further review, I don’t think it’s even necessary for Russia to respond to this latest provocation by Western forces, as its best revenge and most effective deterrence will be to simply refuse to call off its infantry and armor as they continue to advance rapidly across the future Russian lands.

The Journey Begins

Today marks the beginning of the serialization of Aristotle’s RHETORIC at the Castalia Library stack. Sign up for a free subscription there to read along and join in the discussion of it there for the next three months. And, better yet, sign up for a Library subscription to receive a copy of the current subscription book, also by Aristotle, namely, his METAPHYSICS.

Aristotle’s Rhetoric is one of the most useful and important analyses of human communication ever written. It is also one of the great philosopher’s least appreciated works, as it is easily mistaken for a mere technical breakdown of the various methods of persuasion, rather than what it truly is, a brilliant conceptual guide to understanding and anticipating human behavior. While a considerable portion of the text is devoted to the mechanics of the syllogism and the enthymeme, as well as the presentation of the inevitable lists which Aristotle characteristically constructs, by far the most important element of this little book is the philosopher’s division of humanity into two fundamental classes: those who are capable of learning through information, and those who are not.

This is such an important distinction that its complete absence from the schools and universities today is remarkable. It calls into question the basis of modern pedagogical systems and explains the mystery that has confounded every intelligent individual who has tried, and failed, to explain the obvious to another person. Indeed, it is comforting to have long-held suspicions about the intrinsic limitations of one’s fellow men confirmed so comprehensively.

Strategic Drone Attacks

The Western media is convinced that a few trucks full of drones have decimated Russia’s fleet of strategic bombers:

Ukraine has launched one of its most audacious attacks of the war using a ‘swarm’ of kamikaze drones unleashed from the backs of trucks to devastate two of Russia’s most major airfields.

Dubbed ‘Operation Spiderweb’, the co-ordinated strikes have left Vladimir Putin humiliated and his prized warplanes in smouldering ruins.

Two remote military airfields, Olenya in the Arctic Murmansk region and Belaya in eastern Siberia, were rocked by massive explosions overnight, with dramatic footage showing fires raging for hours.

The bases, located thousands of miles from Ukraine, are key to Russia’s nuclear strike capability and were considered untouchable.

Yet Ukraine appears to have struck them with deadly precision, using first-person-view (FPV) drones launched from unmarked vans parked near the airfields.

Both are thousands of miles from Ukraine but were ‘under drone attack’, with dozens of Moscow’s nuclear capable warplanes evidently destroyed.

The Ukrainian media claimed more than 40 Putin aircraft had been hit, including Tu-95, Tu-22M3, and A-50 strategic bombers. The damage to the enemy was alleged to exceed £1.5billion.

If Kiev, Berlin, and London aren’t hit with major missile strikes in the next 24 hours, I think it will be safe to conclude that the damage reports are significantly exaggerated. Which I assume to be the case, in light of the number of Russian planes shot down by “the Ghost of Kiev”, the number of times Russia has run out of ammunition, and the number of times Vladimir Putin has died of cancer.

But it is interesting to observe how Ukraine is now reduced to celebrating acts of subterfuge and terrorism that may or may not even be real as the Russian military continues to advance at an increasing pace.

I’m mostly posting this here for the purposes of future comparison when the numbers are inevitably revised downward. However, it does show that Russia’s attempt at strategic deterrence through doctrine is not working.

UPDATE: It appears eight planes were confirmed damaged or destroyed.

5 Tu-95MS bombers, 2 Tu-22M3 bombers, 1 An-12 military transport aircraft.

Which is two more than Russia has lost in all of 2025, bringing the total to 14. To put this into perspective, in 2022, Russia lost 104 planes.
