from Plato to Hegel to modern Christian fascism, those who defend tyranny and totalitarianism are always wrong.

At the AFHT we promote a free and open society.

Ukrainian mathematician Maryna Viazovska solved a problem that had puzzled mathematicians for over 400 years. Even Johannes Kepler and Isaac Newton couldn’t crack it.

We live in a three-dimensional world, but Maryna solved a puzzle in an eight-dimensional space—something that’s very hard even to imagine.

She was born in Kyiv, studied at Taras Shevchenko University, worked in Bonn and Berlin, and at just 33 became a professor in Lausanne.

So what was the problem? It’s about how to pack identical spheres as tightly as possible in space. This question was first asked by Kepler back in 1611. Over time, scientists found answers for two and three dimensions—but not for eight.

Maryna proved that in eight dimensions, the densest packing is formed by a special mathematical structure called a lattice. What’s even more amazing is that she did it in just 23 pages, while earlier attempts took hundreds.

In 2022, she was awarded the Fields Medal, the most prestigious prize in mathematics. She became only the second woman in history to receive it.

Today, Maryna Viazovska works in Lausanne, supports Ukrainian mathematicians, and brings pride to Ukraine with her achievements.

“America is no longer an ally."

Trump’s actions prove he’s no longer a Nato ally and the rest of Europe needs to “double down” on defence spending to replace America’s “firepower” says Nato’s Former Deputy Supreme Allied Commander, General Sir Richard Shirreff.

it's worth noting that the way we got here is they fired thousands of "useless" government scientists and now they sound like this:

‼️NEW: Trudeau goes on American TV and says that Canadian aluminum WON'T be available

"when the US finally wakes up" ..... "its not your aluminum anymore"

and that Trump drove Canada to China.

Charging the Southern Poverty Law Center with a federal crime for paying informants to help dismantle hate groups is an outrageous weaponization of the Dept of Justice and the FBI. As someone who has been a prosecutor and has taken on the Klan I can tell you that use of paid informants is a common tactic used to dismantle drug cartels, the mob and extremist groups on both the right and the left. It is clear that all civil rights organizations are in the cross hairs of this Administration and that folks, puts everyone at risk.

@mehdirhasan Trump thinks he's clever using that phrase as code for his racism, but I can confidently say that Trump is a very low-IQ person.

This is well worth your time today. It lays out the origins of Trump’s decision to press the green light on this catastrophic move. A move that has left Trump in a quagmire with no visible signs of escape.

Thanks to NYT, Maggie Haberman and Jonathan Swan.

Thiel said this in 2010:
“The basic idea was we could never win an election… because we were in such a small minority. But maybe you could actually unilaterally change the world without constantly having to convince people… through a technological means.”

He must be stopped.

🇺🇸 Palantir. A company that makes billions when the military grows is now lobbying for mandatory military service

"National service should be a universal duty. We should seriously consider moving away from an all-volunteer force."

The more troops, the more contracts. The more contracts, the more revenue.

Just to be clear: the people pushing for your kids to serve are the same people invoicing the Pentagon.
