P. GREANVILLE—False diversity of media content through “numerosity” (large numbers of media repeating the same story) is an old US method to manufacture verisimilitude for a total falsehood. Practicaly all Western false flag psyops use that approach. As Zakharova indicates, Alexei Navalny is a Western intel asset, whose usefulness derives from his ability to provide demonisation copy about Russia for the benefit of Western audiences in the course of an ongoing color revolution against that nation.

THE SAKER—The EU has a major problem: it is run by a comprador class which is entirely dependent on the United States. Okay, that by itself is not the problem I am referring to. The problem I am referring to is one we could call the problem of the decapitated chicken: a decapitated chicken can run without a head, but it sure does not know where it is running or why. This happens to all comprador classes when their beloved masters suddenly vanish. This is exactly what happened to the European ruling classes when Trump came to the White House: they “lost their head” and they began running all over the place, obviously achieving nothing. Now that the Neocons gave Trump the boot, the EU rulers are desperate to show the new US leaders that they only hated Trump, not the USA, and what better way to show your complete submission than by barking at the Asiatic Mordor of the East known as “Russia”?

No bathrooms are provided by Amazon while these drivers are on the road. Their wages are low, they have no health benefits and are often accused of stealing when driving in rich white neighborhoods. All the more reason for Amazon workers to be unionized!

Freeman, who served in top State Department positions and as Richard Nixon’s chief interpreter on his historic 1972 visit to China, discusses the state of US-China relations and flashpoints such as Hong Kong, Taiwan, and the [putative] repression of Uyghur Muslims in Xinjiang.
