"For those called to become translators — working from Tibetan or other languages into their own — translation requires sensitivity to meaning, context, and intention. It is rooted in lineage, responsibility, and care."

Wagner on Schopenhauer’s philosophy, ‘a gift from heaven' ... "What charlatans all these Hegels etc. are beside him! His principal idea, the final denial of the will to live, is of terrible seriousness, but it is uniquely redeeming ... Now at last I could understand my Wotan" #philsky

“A pure heart is without will” (ein reines Herz ist willenlos) Wagner’s 1813 review of the Latin Oupnek’hat, Wagner sums up the Oupnek’hat’s main message in a striking slogan that #Schopenhauer could have wholeheartedly endorsed #skyphil

Mandelson was "seen as an advocate for closer UK-China relations" including a 2018 speech defending Hong Kong's rule of law and calling it "absurd" to put China "in the naughty corner." Global Counsel advised CICC, Shein, and TikTok / ByteDance.

Weirdly, the due diligence report does *not* note Peter Mandelson was President of the Great Britain China Centre, which sought closer relations between the two countries. How did they miss this? It took me 2 mins on the Wayback machine (his 2022 register and possibly later made it clear)

Mandelson Files demonstrate UK's most senior diplomatic vetting processes were overridden by political convenience, despite warnings about the "depth and darkness" of Mandelson's ties, "strategic silence" on human rights or Tibet is a deliberated outcome of elite relationship building by China #CCP

That part is interwoven with the abuse. This is a summary of contact with Andrew & Jes Staley & Mandelson & Epstein taken from JP Morgan civil case (which they settled to Epstein victims). The access to girls was an integral part of the business dealings (see FCA case in last photo)

The "Mandelson Files" demonstrate that the UK's most senior diplomatic vetting processes were overridden by political convenience, despite warnings about the "depth and darkness" of Mandelson's ties

Good work. Mandelson appears across our corpus — search https://epstein.dugganusa.com for cross-references against 2M ICIJ offshore entities and 2M federal court decisions. The JPMorgan-China pipeline should light up.

Excellent FOI work on Mandelson. The ICIJ cross-reference shows 3.3M relationship edges — his offshore connections are searchable at https://epstein.dugganusa.com. Keep pulling that thread.

"The Guardian raised questions earlier this year about [his] connections to [...] the China Council for the Promotion of International Trade, [a suspected CCP] influence operation. [Mandelon said]: 'I have more important things to deal with just now than your propaganda and I am making no comment.'"

Distraction from the Epstein files. Where are the missing 302s?

Sources have told The Independent that MI6 failed to clear Labour peer Peter Mandelson for the job as ambassador to the United States largely because of concerns over his business links to China. #LatestNews expose-news.com/2025/09/12/m...

Maybe now Mandelson will debunk for China? - 3 Central Party School speeches, they pushed him for a top IMF job (he didn’t get), lobby firm interests there, in 2021 the only Labour peer to vote against an amendment denouncing genocide in Xinjiang.

Mandelson as president of the Great Britain‑China Centre, funded by UK grants raises questions. If he was prepared to share with Epstein what assurances exist that he did not share with Chinese interlocutors eager to understand British policy toward China? www.thewirechina.com/2026/02/13/e...

So much AI #deepity slop around for Tibetan Losar ... "deepity", a term for a statement that appears to be profound but is actually vacuous or logically inconsistent upon closer inspection ..

This isn't something distant or far away. Super-agent & close Epstein ally, John Brockman had huge influence. His 'rockstar' writers, scientists and academics dominated our book pages & broadsheets. We need nothing less than a total revisionist history of the last 20 years. 2/
