What better way to introduce my studies on Bernard Mandeville than a quote from the man himself. His words have aged little over the course of the three centuries since they were written - I would say - and they certainly apply to theories about Mandeville himself.

@FmrRepMTG @JustTheTweets17 Wow. Aren’t you gullible, Trisha.

Regular Venezuelans confront regime soldiers after catching them stealing money at the site of a collapsed building.

The regime isn’t doing anything to help survivors.

@WassonWatch Smart design!

@ArynneWexler @tylerbowyer @chicksonright Same as ‘rona delusion. People are ready for the next - quite literally bloody - fad.

@alananewhouse @Jacob__Siegel The problem lies in the heart of mainstream culture.

Never has a goal delivered such relief! Please not another half hour of this dreadful spectacle.

@HeimishHumor Please. Russian intelligence has spread Jew hatred for over a century. It’s a formula that works for them because it inculcates hatred outward, and it sabotages the idea of agency, rendering the believers despondent and slavish.

@ChrisMartzWX I seriously believe at least some of them are government-employed. During the ‘rona a team under the DoD actually roamed the internet to enforce their standards.

Russian soldier who threatened Putin with mutiny arrested on his way to the Kremlin

Alexander Lunin, a veteran of the war against Ukraine, posted an angry video message to Putin demanding a personal meeting.

In it, he promised to tell “the whole truth” about what is really happening in the Russian army, including mass torture and extortion.

If the Kremlin rejected his request, he promised that a military mutiny would begin in Russia.

The video quickly went viral, gaining over 15 million views.

Soon, security forces raided his home in the Voronezh region at night and detained Lunin, so far, for 11 days.

Searches were also carried out in the home of his wife.

@DrewPavlou I really think it has to do with Iran.

Ukrainian forces struck the Slavyansk oil refinery in Russia’s Krasnodar Krai.

The refinery's annual processing capacity is more than 4 million tonnes of oil. The facility is part of Russia's energy rear and is involved in supplying the Russian armed forces. 1/

@ShadeSalvo The inflated egos have to be part of it. Or let’s rephrase that: it’s narcissist football. They’re all terrified the illusion is going to be pierced.

BREAKING: Ukraine’s deep-strike attrition campaign just hit the main fuel artery feeding the Russian capital. Last night, SBU’s "Alpha" special forces successfully executed a repeat drone swarm attack against the strategic "Vtorovo" oil pumping station deep in the Vladimir region.. 🇺🇦🛸🔥

This facility is the absolute structural core of Moscow's domestic energy grid. Vtorovo coordinates the transit of diesel fuel directly into the Moscow Ring Petroleum Products Pipeline, supplying every major fuel depot surrounding the capital, while simultaneously feeding Russia's Baltic Sea export terminals. Ukrainian UAVs slammed straight into the technical infrastructure, triggering massive secondary detonations.

The SBU confirmed this precision strike is part of the newly launched 40-day strategic influence campaign greenlit by Zelenskyy to systematically dismantle the Kremlin's war economy. While Ukraine's new Flamingo cruise missiles level arms factories in Volgograd and internal fuel shortages leave Russian drivers trapped in multi-hour queues, Moscow’s industrial engine is running on empty. Grab a drink, the geopolitical thriller is moving at absolute terminal velocity!

After watching @ryanmauro's podcasts on YouTube, it has become so easy to spot disinformation and misinformation merchants. The ops have become clearer and very obvious to me now. Waw!
