During the summer of 2022, we spent almost 6 weeks in Central Asia.

We barely made a dent in the region given the very long distances between places, but we gathered enough to be able to tell a version of the story of Central Asia.

To give you an idea: a train ride between Almata (the largest city in Kazakhstan) and Toshkent (the capital of O'zbekiston) takes about 18 hours. A bus ride between Toshkent and Bishkek takes about 14 hours. Also 14 hours are needed to go from south of Kazakhstan to Karaganda in order to learn about the Soviet crimes over there. And we had to move fast, because Karagandskaya Oblast has decent temperatures about 6 weeks a year. In late August it was already cold.

But, at least inside Uzbekistan there's faster rail. Sometimes. If you manage to get a ticket, you can travel 800km in under 6 hours. If not... yet another night goes just for that.

So... with these limitations, in mind, let me introduce you, slowly, to how things roll around here.

Let's explore!

The Fergana Valey is an area that has a common history but, in a classical post-colonial story, fell into depression as a result of its key components falling into separate countries following the fall of the USSR which had drawn borders with little to no concerns to the local realities.

The post-Soviet reality was oftentimes brutal not least because its local politics were strongly influenced by relatively remote capitals (especially Bishkek and Dushanbe). However, in the last two years, things have improved more than in the previous 35.

A court of law in Australia will have to decide "what is a woman" for legal purposes, pursuant to Australia's "equality" legislation and general freedom of association. Both the plaintiff and the defendant are the most extreme-HONK examples of their positions.

When it comes to children, my only gripe with the backlash is that it’s not going far enough.

However, when it comes to adults and late teenagers, I changed my mind.

Now I believe that when it comes to adults and late teens, we should consider actively supporting those involved in the trans agenda for strategic reasons and as a means to an end.

Administrative law is a tool of activism at the disposal of every citizen - yet it's the tool least used by citizens, largely due to misconceptions about what administrative courts can and can't do, but also due to the fact that it is inherently fit for only some types of personalities.

Administrative lawfare requires knowledge of procedure and certain personality traits. Even so, almost everyone can do it and those on the non-Left are missing out by not using this tool. Ultimately, procedure is the God and a lot of policies and laws can be nullified in an administrative court on procedure. Not to mention how many bureaucrats can be held to account through it.

Let's explore.

The third season of Propaganda Basement has just ended. Here's how the early stages of constructing the fourth season look like.

Initially, this video was supposed to be only for the Donors' Circle, but then I realized I never explained on this channel how videos are constructed and what goes into the process.

Besides, I also needed to brag with my latest propaganda collection :D

The governmental communication of Ukraine during wartime can sometimes suck. In fact it sucks quite routinely.

But whatever you can say about that, it also manages to somehow be inspiring. And not just on the domestic front, but somehow internationally to people with no connection to the country. Now that is something to be admired. Especially when it ends up producing free propaganda from people who would've otherwise not bother.

This is what we'll study in this episode.

The periodical cross-over with Vee is back. And, as usual, we venture into each other's territory, much to the amusement of y'all.
So this time 'round we talked about anime - a topic that I don't quite follow. And, starting from the most recent localizers' scandals, we go into the more serious controversies of sex positivity, left-wing puritanism, the Anglosphere's purported norms around teenage sex and sexuality (that are way outside of the global norm) and the plain old emotionalism which poisons the well for (almost) everyone.

Hope y'all enjoy it.

When I made the video about Duginism, about 8 years ago, that was a time when only those who were interested were writing about russian propaganda.

Unfortunately, with russia's escalation in Ukraine started in 2022, all sorts of neophytes and interested parties, with various ulterior motives, have joined the conversation.

As a result, the notion of russian propaganda has been turned into something murky and something to be used as a weapon in itself. The very threat of russian propaganda became its own boogy man.

But, really, russian propaganda hasn't changed that much, and when it did, it became worse.

There is a 100 years window between when an event occurs, and when full honest discussion about that event becomes permissible.

This why one should fight hard to win the narrative right after the even occurred. Because the next opportunity may come long after one's lifetime.

You remained behind other post-communist countries in some aspects, but you also avoided, against all odds, the dire circumstances that the forces of the region should have forced you into.

You neighbor the most dangerous province of communist China, your populace is slowly no longer a big fan of russia but they also correctly fear China. You want more money into your budget but the plebs keep telling you to buzz off and are moving their capital away from you.

So, what do you do? Obviously... change the flag of the country.

That's the geopolitics of Kyrgyzstan for you.

Imagine you're the leader of a country whose people have been nomads for millennia, then decided to sort of settle, then immediately got incorporated into Russia, then 40% of them perished even before figuring out what is Russia and then the survivors spent 70 years as a union republic of the USSR.

What do you do first after achieving independence?

Don't answer that. You've already been thrown out of power by the people because you sucked. Doesn't matter how. In a democracy, the people are always right. And if you insist on disagreeing, you may not like the result.

Some of your successors try to disagree with the people and, as a result, they now live in Belarus or Russia in permanent exile.

That's the shortest version of modern Kyrgyz history for you.

Way too many political projects have been very adept at taking power, but then ended up ultimately failing because they had no answer to the question: "And then what?"

Such is the fate particularly of political projects that take a very long time to acquire power. But this sometimes happens to more established political actors too.

This happens because too many political projects confuse their objectives with the answer to this question.

That is incorrect. The answer to "and then what?" is a technocratic one - not an ideological one.

The first thing you need to do after taking power is to take the primary steps towards ensuring hegemony. And that requires wielding power effectively - something which the non-Left forgot how it's done.

So here's a short introduction...

"Sound of Freedom" became a surprise box office hit in the latter part of the summer and in the autumn, at least in part due to various controversies around the film - controversies which in fact had very little to do with the film itself despite claims to the contrary.

Merry Christmas everyone!

I sat down with Roman Skaskiw to talk about American libertarians who promote russian talking points.
But instead of explaining why they're wrong, we explored why do they exist. What prompts someone with a proven trackrecord in defending liberty and civilization to suddenly defend rushism? And why?

What makes US libertarians in particular so susceptible to Kremlin messaging?

In the previous episodes, we went with a more traditional presentation - largely because the history and the present of Kazakhstan and Uzbekistan are indeed quite fit for such a presentation. When it comes to this place, however, such a model of presentation would either be full of exaggerations or it would be excessively focused on the minutiae - which is exactly what you don't come to Freedom Alternative for.

So we'll try a slightly less conventional way of profiling Kyrgyzstan.

Our Western friends will tell you that communism is inherently socially progressive but they would be wrong. Both historically and in the present day, versions of socially conservative communists have existed. Whether that's performative or they mean it is a separate discussion.

So, how about a communist party that defends the Church? Such thing exists in the ex-Soviet space and gets a lot of votes too!

In this episode we look through the manifestos of the two largest political forces in Moldova: the pro-Russian communists and the pro-Western... liberals? I guess...

Let's explore!

In 2021 we went to Moldova for the snap elections held in July. From that, it resulted the Moldova series on this channel and further commentary on the other one.

But what we didn't do enough then was to look closer on the party manifestos. Part of the reason was to avoid inflaming the spirits further. Elections are very emotional moments in this area of the world. And the best moment to discuss them dispassionately is after some time has passed since.

So in this episode and the next one we dissect party manifestos to discover surprises. And there are quite a few of those!

We continue in the third season of Propaganda Basement to explain the mechanics of propaganda through historical or contemporary examples in order to show how things work.

In this third season (with 5 episodes in English and 11 in Romanian) we go through propaganda from 1852 till 2023 in a quest to show that so many of the current ills are indeed very old, including and especially the ills routinely attributed to technology (such as mass surveillance).

In this episode we read through a very thorough debunking of anti-cash propaganda and legislation in Moldova. None of it is wrong but... it's written by Komsomolskaya Pravda. Now why would a hammer-and-sickle newspaper rally against financial control?

Let's explore!
