📺 Charlie Kirk y el espectáculo hecho carne "Asesinar a un presidente, por horrible que fuese, era algo visto como dentro de las “reglas del juego”. ¿Pero 'influencers'? ¿Comentaristas políticos? Eran, supuestamente, una clase protegida" El análisis de @yashalevine.bsky.social elsal.to/44017

📺 "Han estado agitando los océanos psíquicos, produciendo tormentas y tempestades, y luego surfeando esas mismas olas para conseguir fama, dinero y poder político." He traducido para @elsaltodiario.com este texto de @yashalevine.bsky.social sobre Charlie Kirk. www.elsaltodiario.com/estados-unid...

“Politicians assassinations are one thing. Killing presidents, however horrible, was seen as within the rules of ‘the game’. But influencers? Political commentators? They were supposed to be a protected class.” THE SPECTACLE MADE FLESH - @yashalevine.bsky.social open.substack.com/pub/yasha/p/...

The Resnicks are selling a 47-acre property in downtown Aspen for $300 million, the most expensive “home” in the US. Perfect promo for @yashalevine.bsky.social’s ‘Pistachio Wars’ release. www.sfgate.com/realestate/a...

THE MARKET OF IDEAS IS ALWAYS RIGHT Interviewing famous people is not enough to drive the clicks anymore. Even panel discussions with famous people screaming is not enough. Now you need to put famous people in a circular brawl — you need media gang bangs! www.nefariousrussians.com/p/influencer...

“The easy slide of Israeli society into supporting & carrying out a genocide isn’t that surprising—or even an aberration—if you study the religious text on which this society is based.” Zionists tried to use God. But God used them - @yashalevine.bsky.social open.substack.com/pub/yasha/p/...

Essential reading by @yashalevine.bsky.social open.substack.com/pub/yasha/p/...

Lets be honest all of us have a breaking point.

Cycles of violence www.nefariousrussians.com/p/cycles-of-... Sagacious analysis here from @yashalevine.bsky.social. I write a lot about I/P & anticipate the impending whataboutism. Levine rightly emphasizes the shooter's manifesto: "Israel" as perpetrator, not "Jews." #eliasrodriguez #dc #genocide

Senator, it's possible to deplore the act while still being honest that the motivation was not to attack Jews, but specifically to resist the genocide in Gaza, where Israel is starving and bombing civilians as we speak. I found @yashalevine.bsky.social's analysis much more truthful and insightful:

@yashalevine.bsky.social saying it straight. "Give up your biblical-nationalist fantasies before it is too late. We all live in one world. We’re all connected. Continuing on this path will only bring ruin and death." www.nefariousrussians.com/p/a-letter-t...

What is the best take on right-wing, VC and tech podcasting? Aside from @eoinhiggins.bsky.social 's "Owned" and @jacobsilverman.com 's work on David Sachs. Oh and @yashalevine.bsky.social 's podcast on Lex Fridman

In November, Yasha Levine (@yashalevine.bsky.social) issued an old school, straight-from-the-Book-of-Amos warning to Israel. Time will prove him right. www.youtube.com/watch?v=5UFI...

I guess the big question is: How will Americans deal with the inevitable feeling of disgrace and inadequacy that come with decline? Not well. But what do you think? www.nefariousrussians.com/p/how-will-a...

My faves are Behind the News w/ @doughenwood.bsky.social, Nefarious Russians w/ @yashalevine.bsky.social, Behind the Bastards w/ @iwriteok.bsky.social , Radio War Nerd w/ @markames.bsky.social , @chapotraphouse.bsky.social . Too many to name really. It's all there.

I cannot recommend @yashalevine.bsky.social 's analysis on the second Trump era enough. A fresh, unique view on American decline, analyzed as only someone who witnessed the fall of the Soviet Union can understand.

Yes.

The source of my morality: realizing I’m more Christian than Jewish. www.nefariousrussians.com/p/soviet-uni...

“These are the morals that the Red Scare women want to push on people. To them the only thing that makes you a “good” person is treating your family and friends right. The pain and suffering of other people doesn’t matter. In fact, it doesn’t even exist.” www.nefariousrussians.com/p/red-scared

Trump’s tariff rollout reminded me of the self-induced shock therapy that was done under Yeltsin’s government in 1990s Russia. www.nefariousrussians.com/p/the-shitoc...

“The resolution carried no legislative power, it was all performance—& the performance had a distinctive antisemitic tone: a bunch of braindead goyim in Congress were telling Jews like me how to act in order to be considered good Jews.” - @yashalevine.bsky.social open.substack.com/pub/yasha/p/...

“These are the morals that the Red Scare women want to push on people. To them the only thing that makes you a “good” person is treating your family and friends right. The pain and suffering of other people doesn’t matter. In fact, it doesn’t even exist.” www.nefariousrussians.com/p/red-scared

We’ve been on a tear against nihilism over at nefariousrussians.com

this essay goes a long way towards capturing something that I've been thinking about over the past year or so: how closely the new nihilism in America resembles what you find in the former soviet union www.nefariousrussians.com/p/against-ni...

“So in terms of Israel, the business & personal seem synergistic, mutually supportive. Backing the Israel lobby helps them hobble Iran, their main business competitor.” California pistachio billionaires helping Israel's occupation regime - @yashalevine.bsky.social open.substack.com/pub/yasha/p/...

Another eye opening piece by @yashalevine.bsky.social. "I think the book is important, though, in a way that Peter didn’t intend it to be. It gives us a window into the delusional thinking of a big chunk of left/progressive Jewish thought." yasha.substack.com/p/the-unbear...

Just finished watching the "Pistachio Wars" documentary by @yashalevine.bsky.social and Rowan Wernham. It's a great visual companion piece to Mark Arax's investigative book about the theft and history of California's coveted water rights, "The Dreamt Land."

Yasha Levine and Evgenia Kovda took a bat to Anna K and she does not like it one bit

Watching Pistachio Wars tonight. Film's gone through a long journey to being available, going back to @yashalevine.bsky.social's 2013 article I think: web.archive.org/web/20151115...

Investigative journalist @yashalevine.bsky.social and documentarian Rowan Wernham have made their upcoming film about the Resnicks, Pistachio Wars, available to Rent for a limited time ahead of the premiere. You can rent it for 72 hours for this week only. Support the film! gathr.com/vod/537d592b
