David Arioch | Vegazeta – TRANSCEND Media Service,
19 Sep 2022
11 de setembro de 2022 – Num mundo de inferiorização não humana com viés exploratório, e pondero sobre a dominação como fator-perpétuo, porque vida e morte são “trânsitos para lucro e consumo”, como partes de interesse de um sistema perenal, até o óbvio precisa ser esmiuçado para servir como contestação às violências físicas e não físicas impostas aos outros animais.

David C. Speedie | Globetrotter – TRANSCEND Media Service,
5 Sep 2022
1 Sep 2022 – The war in Ukraine, and the role of NATO and the Atlanticist powers, are fueled by an official western narrative depicting the conflict as one between the little Ukrainian David and the brutish Goliath Russia.

1 Aug 2022 – Consciousness becomes a determining factor in history when the dominant regime (i.e. the culture of war) collapses from its own contradictions.

1 août 2022 – La conscience devient un facteur déterminant dans l’histoire lorsque le régime dominant (c’est-à-dire la culture de la guerre) s’effondre de ses propres contradictions. Cela s’est passé dans les années 60 avec la guerre du Vietnam et à la fin des années 80 avec l’effondrement de l’empire soviétique. Nous approchons d’un autre moment de ce genre avec l’effondrement imminent de l’empire Nord Américain.
