J'ai obtenu l'enregistrement de l'intervention de Peter Thiel à l'Académie des sciences morales. Au menu : Antéchrist, IA, mais aussi Concorde et Groenland. L'occasion d'aller au-delà du charabia théologique, cache-sexe d'un projet politique antidémocratique.

Carlson’s line that Russia won’t invade Europe because it’s “dying economically” reflects a bizarre MAGA idea of Europe. Though Europe’s economy is 12 times bigger than Russia’s, much of MAGA imagines Europe as an apocalyptic wasteland with no industry and inhabited mostly by migrant criminals.

The suspension of U.S. assistance for Ukraine is a very unfortunate and significant development, but it may not have immediate impact. Ukraine is far less dependent on the U.S. for day to day battlefield needs in 2025, than it was in earlier periods of the war. 1/
