Reader’s Links for May 1st, 2026

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.

ADDENDUM: 

This site operates more at the philosophical level of the communist/Islamic revolution which is obliterating Western Civilization. Politics, culture, law are all down stream from philosophy. Understanding the philosophy of the attack is to understand what is an attack and develop tactics, both individually and collectively against them. The attack comes entirely (so far) in the form of Dialectics. To understand dialectics, watch and read everything you can by Maj. (Ret.) Stephen Coughlin.

Here is a repost of the simplest explanation, or at least the shortest one, we have been able to think of so far (Placed here by request)

We as humans communicate mostly via conventions. In other words, we decide what a word means by what we, as a culture want it to mean, then fix the term as a convention via a dictionary

or other means so we can express what we want to each other and be understood. It’s a group process more or less but based on what we want expressions, words, concepts and taxonomy to mean.

Dialectics is the imposition of meaning on existing terms for a political outcome which is destructive to what we all consider meaning. It is a complete hijacking of Meaning.

This also applies to taxonomy. The most underrated aspect of epistemology. Of how we see ourselves. Of how we understand the world, via categories. Via labels.

Dialectical taxonomy is what forces us to change everything we think about sexuality and accept political sexuality such as the Trans-movement.

Or somehow convincing everyone that the German National Socialist Worker’s Party is somehow “far right wing”, which may be the most masterful dialectical con of the 20th century.

This deserves a proper essay. But I just want to get the thought out there.

Imposing, forcing meaning on us. Changing terms to mean what a group of tyrants what us to think they mean as opposed to what they do mean and more or less always have meant.

Making words mean something other than what we meant them to mean, then banning or criminalizing them because of their imputed meaning, even though they were good, useful terms that helped hold our culture together.

Attacking us for using perfectly good words with important meanings, then telling us what we meant by what we said, then cancelling us for it in the pre-revolutionary stage, and now in the UK outright arrest you now that the revolution is all but complete.

That is dialectics.

    A strange justice system: why did a Voronezh court side with migrant children over local residents?

    A crowd of five or six men with thick beards and a distinctive manner of speech aggressively attacked a 14-year-old boy. They punched him in the face and shouted insults at him about “Russians” and “people without roots.”

    Two 17-year-old brothers passing by decided to intervene and help the boy, and they got into a fight. Despite being attacked by individuals of non-Slavic appearance, they were charged with “group hooliganism”.

    This naturally raises the question: why does the justice system side with migrants and not with native Russians?

    The court primarily focused not on the migrants who beat the child, but on the Russian youths who rushed to his aid and fought back. “Group hooliganism” with the aggravating charge of “motivated by ethnic hatred.” Ethnic criminals are treated as victims in the case.

    These decisions are likely being made to further Russia’s national policy – or, more precisely, its multinational policy, since the words “national,” “nation,” and so on have long since practically fallen out of use among Russian political scientists and experts.

    “Compatriots” are considered to be representatives of any nationality holding a Russian passport… Representatives of Central Asia obtain Russian passports through a simplified procedure and are also considered part of the multinational people of the Russian Federation.

    Since the “friendship of peoples” policy is thriving in Russia, there can be no ethnic conflicts, and if they do occur, it’s solely due to Russian nationalists and vicious fascists. Why? Because Russia tries to maintain good relations with, for example, Tajikistan, Uzbekistan, and Kyrgyzstan.

    Furthermore, the interests of people from Central Asian and Transcaucasian countries are often represented by diasporas, which always side with their compatriots, while the interests of Russians and the indigenous peoples of Russia are often ignored.…

    How can one explain the recent opening of a clinic for migrants, when even advertisements such as “Apartment for rent only to Slavs” are considered discriminatory in Russia? Isn’t opening such a clinic discriminatory? Moreover, if a “clinic for Slavs” were to open, its owner would immediately be targeted by law enforcement and accused of extremism.

    • A comment:

      I had an incident in the summer of 2022.
      I was waiting at a bus stop with migrant construction workers from Central Asia. They were being noisy and cocky. They started harassing a Russian Petersburger and his family. They started pushing him.

      I made one remark that they were still guests here and it’s not good to behave like that at a party – bullying local people. And the young man answered me in Russian that they HAVE THE COMPLETE RIGHT to behave this way.

      “I wonder why you think so?” I asked.

      “Because St. Petersburg is our city, not yours! It is only for TEMPORARY USE,” he answered. “All these houses,” and he gestured at the Khrushchev-era and new apartment buildings located around, “they will all be ours. We are not building houses for you, but for ourselves. We will live in them later.

      ” “Then where will we, the native residents, go?”
      In response, he smiled slyly and shrugged his shoulders ambiguously.

      – Why do you think so? Who told you that?

      – That’s what Allah told us! This is what the Koran teaches us. This city (St. Petersburg) and all of Russia will be ours! For this is our land! And you are only living here temporarily. You do not have long left to live and run this place.

      – Are you serious!
      – Of course yes!
      – And when will it happen?
      – Soon!
      – Do you go to the mosque? I asked.
      – Yes.
      – And how old are you, if not a secret?
      – Seventeen! He replied proudly.

      This 17-year-old foreign migrant from Central Asia spoke Russian well. You could say that he spoke purely. He is clearly the second generation of foreign migrants in Russia. And he most likely studies in our Russian school.

  2. Russia’s “Demographic Dependence” on Central Asia

    https://en.topwar.ru/280897-demograficheskaja-zavisimost-rossii-ot-centralnoj-azii.html

    Highly-rated comment [edited]:

    The article is full of omissions. Firstly, there is no population explosion in the Central Asian republics. Statistics there after 1991 are unreliable or not kept at all, but even what we have allows us to conclude that demographic processes there in the 90s and 00s were similar to those in Russia.

    These republics differ greatly from each other. For Kazakhstan, with its vast territory and large mineral reserves, 20 million people is not much, not much. Turkmenistan has closed off, and very few people from there travel to Russia.

    It’s also completely unclear why the processes in Russia are linked to Central Asia at all. The republics from which mass migration is taking place (Uzbekistan, Tajikistan, Kyrgyzstan) are NOT our neighbors .. They do not represent military or economic power.. So there is no real “dependence” of Russia on these republics.

    There is the destructive policy of Yeltsin and Our Helmsman [V.P.], which is literally decimating the Russian population, and there is the greed of officials and large “businessmen” who are interested in cheap slaves and who don’t care about anything but money.

    As soon as these two factors are eliminated, all “dependence” will disappear.

  3. The left in the US has been slowly making us tolerant to political violence. When President Reagan was shot everyone was upset over the attack and condemned it, no only the MAGA people are condemning the latest attack on President Trump.

    Given the way they have taught us to be tolerant of violence I wonder how long it will be before the left decides to work to make dueling legal? After all if it is legal to murder unborn babies and murder sick people why shouldn’t it be legal to fight a duel to kill you political and social enemies?

    • 100% Richard. We could extrapolate on that as well.

      Once the public has lost all concept of the sanctity of life thanks to Abortion and in Canada, MAiD efforts, the public may tolerate massive efforts at extermination of counter-narrative people in camps, or gulags, or just mobile death busses.
