@bronzeagemantis Japan's fertility rate is at 1.13 woman per children, for reference. The mental frame for boomers haven't evolved beyond the 80s when Mexican women were pumping out 7 kids on average. https://t.co/ERhttQiRuX
@bronzeagemantis That boomer fag is probably not even aware that Mexico has a fertility rate of 1.2 children per woman, which is substantially lower than the US. Why does the US need Mexican demographics, which will go off a cliff? https://t.co/6DpkeXNerh
Leo Strauss matters in same way Arendt or Voegelin matter; reasonable commentary on books by mid 20th C intellectual. The biggest embracers of Strauss the Puppeteer theories are Straussians themselves because it’s flattering to be thought of as more than a ladies’ reading club
Danish Golden Age continues:
Denmark has now passed the US in defense expenditures as a percentage of GDP, while also having a GDP growth rate that is almost 2x that of the US!
@amir_harati@BrettErickson28@grok Iran is entering hyperinflation thanks to the US blockading their oil exports. Their cash is worth less than toilet paper, literally. What has Iran done with 50 years of oil revenue? Absolutely nothing. Iran has nothing to show for it. Enjoy the oblivion of hyperinflation
@amir_harati@BrettErickson28 This is simply not true. Iran is a gas station masquerading as a country. Look at how their currency is hyper inflating from two months of US blockading their oil exports. Iran is crumbling, they have no other profitable industry or other export than oil and gas.
@stevehou What if AI adoption accelerates, there is evidence of agg productivity, but OpenAI and Anthropic growth still flatlines because they begin to lose their market share to cheaper open source models?
@bronzeagemantis During the 2026 national elections in Denmark, 64.5% of men below 35yo voted for a party in the Conservative bloc. And 60.1% of women in the same age category vote for a party in the Socialist bloc. Overall, slightly more women vote than men, so youth (18-34) vote 50/50.
@cosmorxn Maybe you should travel more, the Chinese people I met in Shanghai took pride in the French Concession, its beauty and its distinct character.
@KarelMercx This is simply not true. Oil will NEVER go to $200. It might reach $120-$130 like back in the Spring, tops. But never beyond that. You are putting your renowned credibility on the line for no reason.
@jonatanpallesen@jonatanpallesen jeg syntes den er et godt eksempel ifht. et mindre velbelyst område indenfor den mellemøstlige kultur vi har importeret til Denmark. Nemlig fænomenet "izzat". Hvor det at tabe ansigt skal undgå for enhver pris, og sandheden bliver fuldkommen tilsidesat.
@jonatanpallesen Har du set? Det viste sig at Afrah blev fyret fra sit job i KBHs lufthavn pga en video hvor hun lavede sjov om terrorisme. Den selvsamme video hun anklagede Pia K for at fabrikere. Hendes izzat blev krænket. Hun tabte ansigt. Derfor løj hun på livet løs.

@curtis_yarvin My granddad had some friends who were part of the initial invasion of Poland. Many were farmers like himself. They said the most difficult part was to shoot and kill the Polish army horses.
