The Osprey is 100% not sustainable for the current US military. Would it have been sustainable in like, 1972? Probably. But neither the USMC nor the Navy nor even the USAF at this...

To me, the V-22 is probably the DoD program that most symbolizes the current US military crisis. A naive belief in the idea that "progress" will solve all design challenges, marrie...

The reason people should cool it with the "Russia is collapsing" mania is quite simple: the bald caterer has done absolutely nothing to organize an actual coup. Let's go through wh...

One of the biggest culture shocks it is possible for a human being to recieve in life is to start out as a "political radical" who then - for whatever reason - has to interact with...

My #1 recommendation to anyone considering being a public intellectual is just don't do it lol. Seriously don't, you'll thank me later. My #2 recommendation is to begin with readin...

It is going to be interesting to see how population decline in the 2030s and 2040s actually plays out. Right now people pretend economic crisis and supply-driven inflation on bas...

The faults of cuckservatives are widely known at this point but people are sleeping on just how much the dissident right - mostly comprised of anomie-overdosing marginal/downwardly...
