21 historical regimes, scored by 7 parameters: state economic control, dissent suppression, individual liberties, welfare provision, nationalism, militarism, globalism.
PCA analysis to find the 'real' 2 axes of the political space.
The data shows these axes to be: (i) authoritarianism vs libertarianism - by far the most dominant factor and (ii) nationalism, with a much smaller effect.
This analysis shows communism is near to fascism and democracies are far away from both. Also that the traditional L/R axis is meaningless.

There's no more accurate a metaphor for the West than slowly bleeding to death by the hand of barbarians while corrupt authorities tie our hands behind our back.

Last words of George Floyd were ; I can’t breathe Starmer, seeing an opportunity, took the knee.
The last words of Henry Nowak were; I can’t breathe.
Starmer, not seeing an opportunity because the victim was white rather than black, remained standing.
And politicians wonder why we despise them.

@jtworr @policylaila Labour represents metropolitans and immigrants. The idea that it represents the workers is a joke.

@TheAliceSmith This comes up a lot in sci-fi, eg prime directive in Star Trek.
We have to realize that we are not all the same. Peoples should not have advanced technology until they are ready for it.

[Jim @QuantyJim]

Obviously, the founders doing their exit…
In 10Y that technology will be ubiquitous: Bezos already landing a rocket on its tail, China will follow, everyone will be doing it now they have seen what is necessary. The head start of SpaceX isn’t worth much because it’s too early in the development of that industry.

“We should have a communist area and a capitalist area beside each other to see who wins.”

North Korea vs South Korea

East Germany vs West Germany

South America vs North American

We’ve already run this test.

Communism always loses.

This is idealistic naivety - insisting on the perfect candidate… when none exists. This just leads to 5Y more of labour. Farage has been fighting establishment for Brits for decades, with huge success (you think they wanted Brexit?!). Lowe turned up just recently, with no track record, no evidence he can create a national party and he may even be a Tory plant. Reform’s deportation policy is a massive improvement vs the uniparty. If the British right splits its vote it would be an act of immense self harm, especially as the next election might be the last. I’m a big fan of Elon but he sometimes gets things wrong and this is an example. Folks: be practical and strategic not ideological!

[Right Again UK @RightAgainUK]

@PolitlcsUK So let me get this right.

No charge for actual crimes for PLENTY of evidence, but you want to prosecute someone for pointing out the fact that there’s two tier justice?!

The UK is a joke

@nealasher Just bought this and about to start!

[Dries Van Langenhove @DVanLangenhove]

A very sad announcement.

I have just been convicted a second time for 'hate speech' and it is only due to a technicality that I could not immediately be sent to jail —to the judge's frustration.

In an ironic turn of events it's actually thanks to my previous prison sentence (for memes in a private group chat) that I am now still free —in a physical sense, at least.

Call me naive but I didn't think they would take it this far, given that this precedent criminalises many of the arguments used by even the most moderate politicians critical of mass migration.

In February 2024 I gave a lecture at Catholic University Leuven wherein I linked mass migration to crime and a deterioration of our quality of life. Every single point I made was 100% the truth and based on scientific evidence.

Cynically, even the judge that convicted me admits as much by writing in his verdict: “Even if all of the statements made by Van Langenhove are based on scientific evidence and statistics, it makes no difference to the criminal intent. Van Langenhove is not charged with spreading false information. He is charged with presenting facts in a way that incites hatred against persons on the grounds of one or more of the protected criteria in the Anti-Racism Law.”

That's a lot of words just to say he wants to send me to prison for speaking the truth.

Even the regime media write: "It did not matter to the court that Van Langenhove was quoting scientific sources. The judge argued that Van Langenhove's main message was that a big part of the societal problems like insecurity, housing shortages and lowering educational standards are due to mass migration."

You may think the regime media are being sympathetic to me in the first sentence, but in reality they are warning people: even if you speak the truth, if you go against our narrative, we will crush you in every way possible.

Both the public prosecutor and the judge did not present a single real argument as to how or against whom I would have incited hatred. So even if I would accept their crazy, dystopic law, I still did not break it.

The only argument they present is that I created a "hostile atmosphere of us versus them” in regards to migrants. But even this silly argument (which is not even a punishable offence) is not true. To me, the deadly disease is self-hatred and one of its worst symptoms is replacement migration. My enemy is thus NOT the migrants themselves but those orchestrating the mass migration.

Sadly, in Belgium, evidence is not needed and ‘vibes’ are enough to put someone in jail.

Given the fact that I have another court case coming up in September and that I have a dozen active criminal investigations for hate speech, time is running out for me. I have already paid more than €420,000 in legal fees and there is no ending in sight. I have been in an intense battle of attrition for eight years and must now regroup to make sure I can still win.

If you want to help me, you can do so via the links below. If you can help in other ways, please contact me via DM.

If you live in a country that still has free speech, never let them touch it, however noble they make the motives sound, because this is where it leads to.

@TradeQuantiX What about on Asian and European equity indices? Should provide more diversification than 3 US indices?

@varrock @augusteprompt Well, it has not led nowhere exactly… African population went up 5x in the last 50 years.
So that’s what our charity did… paid for them to breed

@Maciamo @AncientHistorry Very interesting article, thanks

[Joey Mannarino @JoeyMannarino]

When Iryna Zarutska was murdered on the train in North Carolina, the mayor urged that we have sympathy to her killer.

When a Moslem runs over 8 people in Modena, Italy the mayor of that city says that it is the fault of Italians for not integrating the migrants better into society.

When Henry Novak is left to bleed out and die by the police because a man who just stabbed him is calling him a “racist” and that takes precedence in British law, no one in power condemns it.

No one protests. No one does anything.

But when George Floyd overdosed on fentanyl the entire world came to a standstill and the police officer involved got thrown in jail for life.

Give me a fucking break. Seriously. I’m so fatigued.

[Jim @QuantyJim]

@PolitlcsUK Nobody cares about NET migration, the number is reduced by British people leaving!
We want to know about the number of people arriving…
