If anyone's interested in the real facts about what's actually happening and where pedophile networks come from, this interview is worth listening to. All the horrific events documented in the Epstein files aren't happening because demonic maniacs who eat children suddenly appear out of nowhere, but because power in the US (and not only there) belongs to organized criminal groups controlled by banks and intelligence agencies that, as it turns out, are directly connected to criminal cartels. Whitney Webb (@_whitneywebb) talks about this with a slight smile. She doesn't refer to secret rumors, but to facts from open sources. Epstein, who engaged in human trafficking for corrupt elites, was a monster, but he was service personnel. He served time in prison, and they killed him there. Many girls who became part of the underage trafficking network themselves earned money by bringing their friends and acquaintances into it. The whole system worked like network marketing — a pyramid. So far only the executors have suffered, not the clients. Prince Andrew and several high-ranking officials against whom there is evidence of sexual relations with minors simply lost their status. They weren't even arrested. Meanwhile, Noam Chomsky rightly pointed out that a significant portion of his employer MIT's donors committed crimes comparable to Epstein's crimes. They didn't sit in prison, and they didn't even remove the honorary plaques with their names from MIT's walls. But conspiracy theories are multiplying at an incredible rate, including outside the US. Quite intelligent people are convinced that infants were stabbed during religious rituals and that Chomsky also participated in this. Leftists are especially amusing, whose main sport is slinging mud at each other and fighting for the title of Chief Leftist. Some of them publicly renounce the "disgraced" Chomsky. But Chomsky was an anarchist — he was against dividing people into demons and angels, into terrible criminals and great fighters for peace. Human society is a single organism. People can be criminals, then become saints. They can be quiet obedient officials, and scratch a little — you'll find a Nazi. But even he has a chance to transform. That's why Chomsky talked to everyone and defended his right to do so — including meeting with Epstein, trying to understand how the system works. While Chris Hedges (@ChrisLynnHedges) — a short man in glasses — thunders menacingly (brandishing what appears to be a sharply sharpened pencil) that "our task is not to communicate with them. Our goal is to destroy them," he doesn't specify who "we" are and who "they" are that need to be destroyed. And this is a much more complex question than it seems. Soviet people remember well how the Leninists rushed to destroy "them" so that "we" could finally breathe freely. True, the Leninists were hardened fighters against the regime, sat in prisons and robbed banks. Chris hardly resembles people who can actually destroy, but apparently shares their convictions. But Chomsky didn't share them. And he spoke about this constantly and very argumentatively. Chomsky has a very clear explanation of why Lenin, not just Stalin, was bad news for Russia. For me, Chomsky is right in this dispute, and here's why: it's very advantageous to convince the public that the authorities, under pressure from good people, uncovered a bloody pedophile (Judeo-Masonic) sect, uncovered it and destroyed it. They burned the demons at the stake, held purifying prayers in the temples — now, citizens, go home and live peacefully. But if we acknowledge — as follows from numerous statements by Chomsky himself, Whitney Webb, and other authors — that Epstein's pedophile network is just part of a complexly organized system of power that controls us all, that it hasn't gone anywhere and that if Prince Andrew wants girls, he'll get them through another intermediary, that intelligence services will continue to work hand in hand with criminal cartels, and authorities will start and wage wars in which millions will die, then going home won't work. youtu.be/9g9YoPWHqjc?si… via @YouTube

Unbelievably infuriating that this is how these swine are finally going to deal with the long Labour ratfucking campaign in which *the same people* deliberately put their thumbs on the scales in a general election campaign.

Justice Privatized: The Protection of a Monster To describe the Jeffrey Epstein saga as a mere failure of justice is to grant the system a benevolence it does not deserve. We are witnessing something far more sinister: the active, functional protection of private power by public institutions. The trajectory is undeniable. We have an individual with a fortune of mysterious origin, wealth that would have triggered immediate forensic audits for anyone outside the elite class, being shielded by the very structures designed to prosecute criminality. The 2008 non-prosecution agreement engineered by Alexander Acosta was not a mistake; it was a state-sanctioned cover-up. It was a constitutional abomination that effectively privatized the justice system, creating a two-tiered legal reality: one for the general population, and another for the ultra-wealthy. By sealing the records and granting immunity in secret, the U.S. Judicial System became an accomplice to every crime Epstein committed thereafter. The state did not just let a monster go free; it camouflaged him. It allowed him to move through high society with a clean ledger, endangering countless women and deceiving associates who were left in the dark regarding his true nature. The inconsistencies, from the sweetheart deal to the convenient timing of his death, demonstrate a judiciary primarily concerned with preserving the stability of elite networks rather than exposing the truth. The blood is on the hands of the U.S. courts. They manufactured the impunity that allowed this predation to endure, up to today.

Looks like Chomsky's defenders were right, and the malicious mob and his fake friends were wrong. I've just been sent a statement written by his wife Valeria to clarify the whole mess. Hopefully the statement will be published in news outlets soon. In case it's not, I'm attaching it here. Its upshot, as every rational person knew all along, is that Chomsky's "crime" was to be naive and to be fooled by a sociopath who fooled innumerable others. Meanwhile, everyone who was so eager to denounce one of the greatest scholars and human rights activists of our lifetimes should take a long, hard look at the ugly tendencies in their characters.

I don't think Pinker has ever read a page of Marx
Steven Pinker@sapinker

I spoke with @LaulPatricia about Marxism: One is: What’s remarkable is that Marxism has been tried. Now, of course, defenders of Marxism say it hasn’t really been tried anywhere, but certainly the people who implemented it claimed they were implementing Marxism. And this is a massive experiment—a global experiment—with a very clear outcome. Namely, the Soviet Union was a disaster. The imposition of communism on Eastern Europe was a disaster. The imposition of communism in Venezuela was a disaster. The imposition of communism in Maoist China was a disaster. Disaster in terms of both poverty and oppression and genocide and stupid wars. So the world has told us what happens under communism, and it’s a sign of how out of touch intellectuals can be that there are still people who defend it despite the entire world giving a very clear-cut answer. One more is: would you rather live in North Korea or South Korea? Would you rather live in the old East Germany or West Germany? We have an experimental group and a matched control group in terms of culture, language, and geography, and the answer is crystal clear. So this is a sign of, I think, the pathology of intellectual life—that Marxism can persist. The other is, you did call attention to one of the appeals of Marxism, though, and more generally of heavy, strong influence of government guided by intellectuals, which is that there are certain kinds of reforms that you can state as principles. You can articulate them verbally as propositions—like equality, human rights, democracy—but there’s other kinds of progress that take place in massive distributed networks of millions of people, none of whom implements some policy. But collectively, there is an order, an organization that’s beneficial. So that can happen organically through, for example, the development of a language. No one designed the English language. It’s just hundreds of millions of English speakers. They coin new words. They forget old words. They try to make themselves clear. And we get the English language and the other 5,000 languages spoken on earth. Likewise, a market economy is something where knowledge is distributed. You don’t have a central planner deciding how many shoes of size 8 will be needed in a particular city, but rather information is conveyed by prices, which are adjusted according to supply and demand. And you’ve got a distributed network of exchange of information that can result in an emergent benefit. Now, intellectuals tend to hate that. They like rules of language—of correct grammar. They like top-down economic planning. They like cultural change that satisfies particular ideals described by intellectuals. And so rival sources of organization, like commerce, like culture—traditional culture—tend to be downplayed by intellectuals. And this can be magnified by the fact that many dictatorships give a privileged role to intellectuals, which may be why, over the course of the 20th century, and probably continuing to the present, there has not been a dictator that has not had fans among intellectuals—including the mullahs and ayatollahs of Iran, but also the communist dictators: Mao and Castro, even Stalin in his day. And every other dictator has had, actually, often fawning praise from Western intellectuals.

Vijay Prashad@vijayprashad·
Michael Parenti (1933-2026) died today. He has, as his son Christian said, 'gone to the Great Lecture Hall in the Sky'. A socialist from early into his life till the very end, Michael Parenti wrote in a feisty way and spoke bluntly the truths that were not always easy to digest in a wretched capitalist system. He was a fierce critic of imperialist wars and suffered the consequences of this because he could keep and then hold academic jobs even in liberal states such as Vermont. The toughest test for all of us came when the USSR collapsed, and it was in this period that Michael Parenti played an important role in the Battle of Ideas, fighting the reactionary Western media and the intellectual cowardice of his peers. His books on Yugoslavia's destruction earned him terrible attacks, which he brushed off as the necessary price you pay in this struggle. In the midst of it all, Michael wrote 'Blackshirts and Reds: Rational Fascism and the Overthrow of Communism' (1997), a rebuttal to the anti-Marxist and anti-Communist blather that had begun to infect the world. The book remains an essential tool to fight against the ridiculous anti-communist historiography that demeans the great achievements of the workers' movements. He spent the last period of his life within himself, which was a loss to the rest of us, and now his departure leaves us without that anchor which he provided. Michael Parenti. Comrade. Our Red Flag dips in your honour.

@luftwagun @General_Oluchi @mehdirhasan I didn’t claim it was fake, I said I wasn’t sure about the authenticity because AI is everywhere right now and there’s a giant fucking T-Rex on the lawn. Also you need to look up the word parasite as you clearly don’t understand what it means.

@aaronjmate @GregGrandin Chomsky thought people should be starved in concentration camps for refusing to take endless experimental "vaccines" because he was afraid of a cold. Sorry, that level of inhumanity is inexcusable.

@MichaelRosenYes @DavidDferreira Wild to think that a ‘failure to grasp the definition of irony’ means one would be more suitable to teach children’s literature. What a failure to grasp the importance of that

@DavidDferreira 'the expression of one's meaning by using language that signifies the opposite' 'woke rot', I thought was sufficiently hyperbolic for people to pick up that I meant the opposite. Many people did get that.

@PoliticsScot @Jonathan_K_Cook @CraigMurrayOrg I did not say that, so the “as if” inference is entirely your own making. And you’re not rebutting my assertion, because I didn’t make one. @CraigMurrayOrg however, did. He said “…the murder of McRae by the British state…” I then asked on what evidence does this belief rest

@MandyEire @Jonathan_K_Cook @CraigMurrayOrg Unfortunately, the reporting is very inconsistent across outlets. Some say gunshot wound was behind his ear, some say temple, an interview with a nurse who claims she was on duty that night says it was in the back of his neck… the publicly available details are a mess
