Reader’s Links for February 16th, 2026

Posted on by

Each day at just after midnight Eastern, a post like this one is created for contributors and readers of this site to upload news links and video links on the issues that concern this site. Most notably, Islam and its effects on Classical Civilization, and various forms of leftism from Soviet era communism, to postmodernism and all the flavours of galloping statism and totalitarianism such as Nazism and Fascism which are increasingly snuffing out the classical liberalism which created our near, miraculous civilization the West has been building since the time of Socrates.

This document was written around the time this site was created, for those who wish to understand what this site is about. And while our understanding of the world and events has grown since then, the basic ideas remain sound and true to the purpose.

So please post all links, thoughts and ideas that you feel will benefit the readers of this site to the comments under this post each day. And thank you all for your contributions.

This is the new Samizdat. We must use it while we can.

**New intelligence suggests a specific course of action concerning use of Substack. For a variety of reasons, who owns it, and who owns the ONLY company that monetizes authors on Substack, the question for us has always been, ‘Why is Substack allowed to exist?” I believe the answer is now known to us. It collects data on you and who you are connected to. Substack does have the best writers out there for counter-narrative views, and does allow the authors to make money at it. Which is suspicious already. But the reasons were made known to us by a Cyber-security professional. The solution seems to be to use a dedicated browser, ONLY for substack. There are many good ones out there now. So downloading another browser is easy. Get the DuckduckGo go one, or Brave or one of many others and use it ONLY for substack and clear cookies after use. Like washing your plate after you eat.

For those interested, please check out https://vladtepesblog.substack.com/ as an another avenue of expression. The Substack is a different project in a sense. It is older videos that in the light of subsequent events, look different or of increased importance, Check it out now and again if you like. But use it safely.

  2. Dr. Livshitz and his friend, Jack, were taking advantage of the rare, late-February sunshine, walking and talking as they often did, discussing matters of the day. Though they were new friends it had become something of a habit, helping each man sort his thoughts about the chaotic environment of the day.
    “There’s so much going on, doc, I don’t know what any of it means.”
    “Yes, yes,” replied the doctor in his thick Austrian accent. “Zee vorld iss utter chaos.”
    “I mean, nothing is as it seems. Our government has even adopted the communist Chinese expression ‘social cohesion’ in order to make people think it has altruistic value, when in fact–.”
    Dr. Livshitz cut Jack off. “–Vhen in fact it means vee zee people haff a lack of obedience!”
    “Exactly. How are we supposed to keep up with the way they use these words? They use them against us like a code we don’t understand until we translate them, which most people can’t.”
    “Yes, it iss zee langvage of dialectics, my goot friendt. It iss dense unt difficult unt it takes much time to learn.”
    “And then look at Trump coming out now saying he’s dropping all the net-zero nonsense, all the green taxes and regulations on industrial production.”
    “Ah-ha!” blurted the doctor as he became more animated by Jack’s turn of topics. “Zee President iss no longer foolt by zee narratiffs. He iss unplugging uss from zee American economy! Ziss bissness of zee Gordie Howe brich iss anozzer proof. He is vaging var. He iss utilissing hiss command uff zee chaos.”
    “You think? I mean he’s going after Greenland, he calls the Prime Minister Governor, he calls us the fifty-first state–he fights so asymmetrically you don’t know if he’s just plain crazy–.”
    “Or fermenting us!”
    “Fermenting?”
    “Yess. He iss fermenting uss in zee battlefield uff his chaos. He presents against his foes maximum pressure, densely applied, and chaotic. From ziss chaos he produces victory.”
    “Hmm. I never thought of it that way. By the way, what are you a doctor of?”
    “Oh, I’m not a doctor,” replied Dr. Livshitz, his accent suddenly dropped. “I just play one in real life.”

  5. Four years of Ukraine war sitreps at 12-hr interludes are getting tiresome for most viewers – though not for ME.

    Some of my favorites are changing format. While other war-mappers have stopped posting, Dima makes guesses. A way of dealing with the same potato field being taken-&-retaken x-times, I guess.

    Early on I was steered to an online course on Mongolian military tactics offered by HistoryLegends. A couple of years ago he gave a memorable post on the [odious] Kupyansk district, now on its fifth iteration of counter-counter-etc. assault[s].
