DYSPEPSIA GENERATION

Modern War Institute.

The United States Army spent the last two decades optimizing sustainment for permissive environments defined by uncontested supply lines, contractor support, and static forward operating bases. As the National Defense Strategy shifts toward strategic competition and multidomain operations, however, this efficiency-driven model has become a liability. In large-scale combat operations, victory will depend less on which force fields the most advanced weapons and more on which can sustain combat power under persistent attack. A lethal maneuver force without a survivable logistical backbone is simply a stationary target waiting to culminate.

Here is a paradox, perhaps.

Information Theory tells us that only surprise counts as information. If the receiver can infallibly predict the next signal from the sender, that predictable signal adds no information.

If I transmit “Mr.”, none of the letters in the group “i, s, t, e, r” count as information. We trust that those letters come next.

Trust is reduced uncertainty about future behavior. But trust is generated largely by past behavior.

When we trust a bridge, we expect it to continue standing. When we trust a bank, we expect it to honor withdrawals as it has done in the past. When we trust a person, we expect him or her to behave tomorrow roughly as they behaved yesterday.

We are trusting in the past. We are trusting in reputation.

Reputation is accumulated evidence from the past about future behavior.

Even if, as is usually the case, our trust is in an expert rather than our own experience, we trust because other persons or institutions have affirmed the expert’s reputation—his history of being right or wrong.

Now here’s a wrinkle.

Suppose we have strong reason to trust an expert within a particular field. Then one day we encounter him discoursing on dozens of subjects far outside his area of expertise. Every proposition sounds plausible. Better still, many of them are entirely new to us.

He is providing enormous amounts of information. Do we believe him?

If he offers a thousand plausible assertions, do we accept them?

This is the AI problem.

Californians will have to pay for two new taxes next year after Gov. Gavin Newsom approved the state budget in June in what the California Taxpayers Association described as “the largest tax increase in state history.”

Newsom and Democratic lawmakers agreed on proposals that would raise health insurance premiums and slap a new charge on software downloads in an effort to make up federal revenue loss from an antagonistic Trump administration, Democrats said.

Because, as we all know, California has an inalienable right to get money from the Federal government—and the Federal taxpayers.

One measure would extend a tax on health care providers to potentially generate roughly $2 billion a year to help fund Medi-Cal.

How can we pay for better health care? I know—we’ll raise taxes on health care providers! What could possibly go wrong? Well, health care providers will (a) raise their prices and (b) join the billionaires fleeing the state. That estimated $2 billion a year, as will all government estimates of future tax revenue, assumes that people will just stand there waiting to be fleeced and take no action to avoid and mitigate the tax. As with all government estimates of future tax revenue, it will turn out to have been grossly inflated.

James Lileks, recently divorced, not by his choice:

They’re going to Rome soon and wanted some recommendations, and when I went home I dived into the archives to get some routes and points of interest, and was reminded again of last summer’s wonderful trip, and had the familiar reaction: divorce sours a thousand photos. But I knew I’d done a good job arranging that family vacation, and everyone had a marvelous time, and if it was the last, well, that wasn’t my doing. I didn’t decide to haul out the bolt cutter. Found a photo of me and my daughter toasting my new retired future in a Trastevere restaurant. No poison there. We’ll be happy in Rome some day again.

Wife was a lawyer married to a journalist. (Income imbalance.) Only one child. (Declining birth rate.) When she retired, she decided to end the marriage. (Status imbalance.) He’s coping as well as he can (beta male simp) but the bitterness occasionally breaks through. (Reality does that.)

Conventional wisdom is that over 50% of marriages in the U.S. end in divorce. 69% of divorces in the U.S. are initiated by the wife.

Divorced men have about 2.4 times the suicide rate of married men. Divorced men are 8 times more likely to die of suicide than divorced women.

In the U.S., suicide deaths are much higher among men than women: in 2022, the age-adjusted suicide rate was 23.0 per 100,000 for males and 5.9 per 100,000 for females, so the male rate was about 3 to 4 times higher.

Optimists once believed that universal literacy was inevitable. Now it seems that the age of reading might be a short anomaly in human history.

Underclass people who depended on government schooling are functionally illiterate anyway; once again, Democrats seem to be ahead of the curve here.

Most machine operators during the first years of the industrial revolution were barely literate, but they did good work just the same. Navy sailors on the China Station between the world wars often had Chinese coolie servants who could do their work competently, as illustrated in the famous Steve McQueen movie THE SAND PEBBLES—I doubt that any of them were even literate in Chinese, much less English. Simple operations that depend on a job being demonstrated and then done by rote was, until recently, the default way that working people worked, and still rules in the Turd World. We may be reverting to that, and I doubt that the heavens would fall.

I wouldn’t mind seeing a return to the day when college was only for rich people’s kids and affordable for intelligent non-Crustian kids who were willing to work their way through or get scholarships.

When you shop on Amazon, you inevitably have to sort through a whole lot of sponsored ads and listings for products of dubious quality or from no-name brands with inexplicable names before you find what you’re looking for.

Drama requires uncertainty.

But there is a creeping challenge across our film and television dramaturgy; progressive ideology, in which we’re told that certain groups are inherently more oppressed, and thus more moral than others.

This sits uneasily with dramatic storytelling, particularly in mixed-race casts, for a simple reason:

Unlike drama, which requires uncertainty, progressive ideology requires moral certainty based around people’s identities.

We all know the moral totem pole that progressive ideology has constructed, with cis white hetero able bodied men at the bottom, and a trans black disabled woman at the top.

I once attended a lecture by a brilliant black professor on the power of the Wire, one of the most diverse shows in history at the time.

Chaotic scenes broke out on the streets of Amsterdam and The Hague again over the weekend after Morocco defeated Canada over 5,000 miles away in Texas. Groups of Morocco supporters took to the streets, with reports of fireworks being fired into crowds, reckless driving, and clashes with police.

Despite the disorder, police adopted a restrained approach. Riot squad commander Sander van der Hulle said officers deliberately avoided intervening in some incidents to prevent wider violence.

“If you start enforcing against minor offences, it becomes war,” he told De Telegraaf, adding that police sometimes choose not to intervene in order to stop situations from escalating.

Germany recorded 751 gang rapes in 2025 and the majority of the offenders were foreigners, according to figures released by the federal government in response to a parliamentary inquiry by the right-wing opposition Alternative für Deutschland (AfD) party.

While there was a slight decline from 788 recorded cases in 2024 and 761 in 2023, the fact remains that gang rape was a relatively rare phenomenon in Germany before 2015, the start of the European migration crisis.

Liberal-led Berlin recorded the highest number of cases, with 118 offences, making the capital the country’s principal rape hotspot.

The statistics identified 1,083 suspects in connection with the recorded gang rapes. Of these, 53% were non-German nationals—among them 110 Syrians, 64 Afghans, 46 Iraqis, and 44 Turks. The rest of the perpetrators held German citizenship, but the data doesn’t say whether they are of a migrant background.

My, what a surprise. Aren’t you surprised? I’m sure surprised.

The government also reported that 72% of all suspects had been known to the police.

I have a question for Bernie, AOC, the DSA, and all the Ivy League professors who are convinced 21st century America is the optimum time and place for “real” socialism to be tried.

When Marx wrote his rant, industry was in the Age of Machinery. Should the workers take over the Means of Production at that time, they would have little or no trouble keeping the factory running. Any shop foreman had all the technical knowledge needed. We were still in the Age of Machinery in 1918 when Lenin took over the Means of Production. Even in the Age of Machinery, however, socialism can’t innovate. But, change did not come fast in the Age of Machinery. The U.S.S.R. strategy of relying on copying Western innovations was a tolerable strategy. The U.S.S.R. was always behind the West, but the gap was not too big.

After WWII, America began to leave the Age of Machinery and transition into the Age of Computers. The pace of innovation increased, and the gap between the West and the U.S.S.R. increased. Reagan pushed for a huge technological advance in Defense. The U.S.S.R. strained to respond, and collapsed.

Since the collapse of the world’s most advanced socialist country, the pace of change has steadily accelerated. The Age of Machinery exists only in museums. The shop foreman with good mechanical talent still exists, but he is ill equipped to run the factory full of robots. In 21st century America, the most important Means of Production are not factories. Microsoft is a collection of highly trained, and highly rewarded, coders. Apple has its factories overseas. Apple in America is a collection of highly trained, and highly rewarded, engineers forever devoted to designing something better than they designed the year before.

A socialist takeover of Microsoft, Apple, Google, Amazon, Nvidia, or any other of America’s top companies, ends in instant disaster. The common worker couldn’t take over squat. The highly paid elite engineer or programmer is essential and not replaceable. These folks are all very big winners under Capitalism. They will not start saying Comrade to everyone and continue working under socialism.

Marx was convinced factory workers were woefully underpaid. Therefore, a worker revolt would result in higher wages. Essential workers in 21st century America are not underpaid. A worker revolt, today, would do nothing more than piss off the workers.

Police have admitted that they do not know what country the Belfast knife attack suspect is from.

Hadi Alodid was charged with the attempted murder of Stephen Ogilvie, 44, who lost an eye and suffered injuries to his back and head in the attack last month.

Footage shared widely on social media at the time showed a knifeman holding down and stabbing his victim, in an attack which triggered violent anti-immigration protests.

The Police Service of Northern Ireland (PSNI) originally said Mr Alodid was from Somalia, before stating that he was Sudanese. However, a month after the attack, the force has said he may be from the neighbouring African country of Chad.

In any case, I think we can presume he’s Muslim, and therefore where he’s ‘from’ is the Dar al-Islam.

Donald Trump has declared an end to the ceasefire with Iran.

The US president told reporters he didn’t “want to deal with them any more” after launching overnight strikes on Tehran.

In an angry address at the Nato summit in Ankara, Mr Trump told reporters: “These are evil, sick people,” and described them as scum and a cancer that needs to be cut out.

Apparently The Donald is out of patience.

The US and Iran signed a memorandum of understanding (MoU) on June 17, which paused fighting between the two countries and committed to a 60-day negotiating period to reach a final, lasting peace agreement.

But Iran has continued its attacks on ships in the Strait of Hormuz – a key global oil artery.

He lasted longer than I thought he would. And, truth to tell, longer than I would have.

The War Zone.

Somali pirate attacks on shipping in the Gulf of Aden region are on the rise, according to the U.N., a naval task force and a joint naval communications operation. The spike comes amid ongoing tensions in the Persian Gulf between the U.S. and Iran, and one regional military task force tells us these Somali Pirate Action Groups (PAGs) may be taking advantage of that situation. Meanwhile, a think tank suggests that the Iranian-backed Houthi rebels of Yemen are aiding these pirates in a form of so-called gray zone conflict.

Regardless, these incidents are posing increased security risks to a commercial shipping industry already roiled by the U.S.-Israeli war with Iran and its ongoing aftermath, which is starting to heat up again after about a week of calm.

The most recent pirate attack took place on Sunday.

Imagine how peaceful the world would be if the Religion of Peace didn’t exist.

The U.S. military announced that it had launched strikes against Iran Tuesday evening, marking the latest exchange of blows between the countries amid a fragile ceasefire.

In a post on X, U.S. Central Command announced that American forces had begun launching a “series of powerful strikes against Iran to impose heavy costs for targeting and attacking commercial shipping crewed by innocent civilians in an international waterway.

“The U.S. strikes are in response to Iranian attacks on three commercial vessels that were transiting the Strait of Hormuz,” the post continued. “Iran’s demonstrated aggression was unwarranted, dangerous, and a clear violation of the ceasefire.”

The latest round of violence could further imperil U.S. negotiations over fully reopening the Strait of Hormuz and reviving talks over Iran’s nuclear program.

On Monday evening, hundreds of people gathered to protest in front of a residential building in Kraków, Poland’s second-largest city, after it had been revealed that a “community center” in one of the rental apartments had actually been operating as an illegal mosque for some time, without the knowledge of other residents.

The main organizer of the demonstration was right-wing activist Micha? Kostrzy?ski, who led a months-long investigation into the alleged community center and documented his findings online. Kostrzy?ski learned that the space was actually a house of Muslim worship, run without proper authorization by the Al-Fajr Foundation, a self-described “Islamic and cultural foundation based in Kraków, established to serve, support, and empower the Muslim community in Kraków and across Poland.”

While the staff insisted that it was only a “community center” for cultural education and nothing more—the same thing they told residents—Kostrzy?ski found their fundraiser requests from last year, in which they were openly asking for donations for a third “house of prayer,” because the other two in the city were already at full capacity.

There is a real American man named Jackson Hinkle who visited Iran this week to tell American patriots to “pay their respects” to the deceased Islamic theocrat who ruled Iran with an iron fist.

Born in 1999 in San Clemente, California, Hinkle got involved with the “Bernie Bros” out of high school and went full-bore into politics. He was endorsed by the Democratic Socialists of America during his 2019 bid for city council in San Clemente (which failed).

He launched a YouTube show in 2020 that reached 300,000 subscribers. A self-described “American conservative Marxist-Leninist,” he pivoted from climate activism to pro-Russia, anti-Israel propaganda, with more or less success than peers like Greta Thunberg.

In 2024, Hinkle co-founded the American Communist Party, breaking with the century-old Communist Party USA, which he saw as too weak.

In 2025, he went and lived in Russia (he’s a commie, so duh).

States across the country saw steep drops in the number of people covered by the Affordable Care Act over the past year, with Ohio and Oklahoma each losing nearly one-third of enrollees, according to new federal data that provides the first complete 50-state breakdown of sharp enrollment declines following the January expiration of enhanced subsidies.

The data, posted in late June by the Trump administration and first reported on by The Associated Press, reveals how changes in each state’s insured population led to around 2.6 million fewer Americans having Obamacare plans in February compared with the same time last year.

It captures not only how many people signed up for or were automatically reenrolled in plans in 2026, but how many paid their first monthly premiums to keep coverage, according to Cynthia Cox, a vice president and director of the ACA program at the healthcare research nonprofit KFF, who reviewed the dataset.
