Below, Dreizin saves you (or your kids) thousands more dollars in college tuition AND blows your mind with simple, obvious stuff that, somehow, almost no one understands.
And further down, we have some important war material, answering the question, why is GLOBOHOMO not giving the Ukraine remotely enough new gear to compensate for all that’s been lost over the last TWO MONTHS?
(Of course, the answer is obvious if you have a brain—it’s the same answer as for why they just FINALLY “realized” they can’t train Ukrainians to fly F-16’s because of a LANGUAGE BARRIER (LOL, you can’t make this up!!!)… but I have fun with it, and I hope you will enjoy, as well.)
And, if you want more cat bowling, please leave a tip, here. Donations on my last big post (August 2nd) were abysmal. I understand it’s August, but come on, people.
For those watery shitsacks who refuse ON PRINCIPLE to ever donate (like, “your stuff is free, I won’t pay for anything I can get for free”), well, at least “like” all my stuff on Twitter. For those with a Twitter account (including all my Twitter followers), HOW HARD IS THAT??? ****UNLESS**** you’re in a job where you might lose “cred”, or get disciplined or fired, for liking me (let alone, giving me money)… go in there and scroll down (and down and down) and like everything! Lazy trash!!!
Political Psychology 101
Some have described Dreizin as an “analyst.” Dreizin takes offense at this term.
“Analyst” is from the word “anus”, because analysts talk a bunch of crap.
Dreizin is a realist. I plug you in to REALITY.
Below is a lesson on politics. It is TRUTH. As with all TRUTH, it is SELF-EVIDENT. And yet, where else have you ever read or heard it? Of course, NOWHERE. Nowhere, ever, but here.
Here’s part of a comment that I received:
As it relates to the chronic blather about the 2020 election being a clean election, this latest indictment can be used by Trump, if he is properly represented, to show that is not true. Most of the evidence of election fraud has never been tested in court because the Judges will not accept the challenges for various legal reasons. Now, someone can finally present the evidence in the court and there is a lot. Also, because of the indictment’s tie to Jan 6th, all of the surveillance videos can be subpoenaed as well as the capitol Police chief who quit after the riot, but makes a case that the failed security at the capitol was planned by folks higher in the food chain than him.
Here’s my response. (If you think you’ve read it, read it again, because I kept working on it.) You should read the whole thing, it builds up to the lesson. The lesson, towards the bottom, is in bolded font, and the most important part of it is in EXTRA-LARGE BOLDED font:
I’m sorry, I hope you’ll keep giving me money, but everyone knows, Dreizin never bites his tongue, and I’m not about to start now.
This part of your well-written comment is SHOCKINGLY naive.
You sound like Gateway Pundit or the Robert Barnes people.
You assume the judge will allow Trump’s trial, to become a trial of the election (as well as of the FBI’s role in “January 6th”, holy moly!!!)
You forgot, the trial will be in Washington, DC.
What I’ve read, the assigned judge is a reliable “hanging judge”, as far as the January 6th crowd is concerned.
Besides which, the MSM won’t cover Trump’s defense, except to briefly ridicule it, same as with the Hunter Biden stuff (although the latter is well worth pursuing, simply because the initial facts are still getting out.)
You really think this will be an OJ Simpson trial, with everyone glued to the tube, looking to make up their minds?
It’s been close to three years since the election. No one’s gonna be redpilled by “evidence from 2020”, who wasn’t already redpilled.
Your comment, is as if written by someone who’s been sleeping since 2017, and just woke up and read about the 2020 election and everything else.
Naturally, a former president being tried by his enemies, on enemy territory, it looks bad, and if the economy continues to stagnate, and the price of gas rises again, and there are other failures (let alone, another pandemic, lost war, etc.)…..
…..then most people won’t buy into the trial, and it would be much easier for our political Supreme Court to overturn Trump’s conviction, or to intervene in the trial itself (upon some emergency appeal from his lawyers), or, he gets elected (perhaps, from jail) and pardons himself.
But, this has NOTHING to do with any “evidence.”
The final outcome of the Trump persecution, as everything in politics, will depend on “EVENTS” and on PUBLIC OPINION.
“Democratic system” political outcomes DO NOT (as in, NEVER, EVER, EVER) depend on any “objective facts” that are separate from the financial / personal success or well-being of rich donors and dumb voters.
(The only other deciding factor is tribal identity and tribal “under threat” feeling, and their relative intensities across donor cliques and broad demographics.)
“Facts” are **ONLY** ever judged in light of the above factors.
Outside of these factors, facts DON’T MATTER AT ALL.
Even INSIDE of these factors, facts don’t ever REALLY matter, per se, as they are merely AUXILLIARY to pre-existing (tribal) or situational (success / well-being) senses and feelings, serving as a hook or amplifier (perhaps even a VERY STRONG AND USEFUL ONE), but having NO SEPARATE LIFE OR VALUE.
(U.S. House Repubs “get” this, and are thus slow dripping the Hunter Biden stuff, letting it percolate into the masses, until such time as the U.S. goes further downhill, and then, the facts around Hunter will start to matter. The “Impeach Now!” crowd OBVIOUSLY doesn’t get it.)
If you grasp this, you can begin to predict certain political outcomes.
If you don’t grasp it, you’re just lost in a brain fog.
“Watch the hands”
One of the very best Ukraine audios that I’ve done, please listen:
(Audio file duration: 11:43)
(Note: As I’ve said for a while, GLOBOHOMO is low on the M777 cannon, but, it COULD open the floodgates on the M109’s, which it has NOT done. In fact, as far as has been clearly disclosed, no M109’s have yet come to the Borscht Reich from the U.S. directly. (A small number has come from European countries.)
Gonzalo Lira… for anyone who knows or cares
A reader/commenter mentioned that Scott Ritter considers Gonzalo Lira—a U.S. citizen, minor Twitter star, and repeat Mercouris show guest, of Chilean descent, who has been living in Kharkov, the Ukraine, since before 2022—to be controlled by the Ukrainian secret services. Here’s how I responded:
I don’t have time to watch Ritter, but if he said that, good on him.
Lira is obviously some flavor of fraud.
Nobody, not even a U.S. passport holder, can live in the Ukraine and publicly shit on its government and war effort, “just like that.”
Since February 24, 2022, the Ukraine has become one of the world’s most oppressive states, a giant concentration camp, up there with North Korea. Even listening to Russian music in one’s car, or having a Russian Telegram channel on one’s phone, is grounds for indefinite detention and “enhanced interrogation techniques”, on the presumption that the offender is a spotter for Russian air/missile strikes, or some kind of traitor, anyway. (If the offender is lucky enough to be released, if male and not older than 60, he will immediately be presented with a big “fuck you” in the form of a draft summons.)
My guess, Lira is/was a “honey trap”, with the security men nailing local dissidents/freethinkers who were dumb enough to reach out to him. It’s INCONCEIVABLE that he didn’t understand his role. He MAY have even been paid for it.
If they really did arrest him, not just to give him more “cred”, but “for real”, once or twice, it was only because he lost the plot, temporarily stopped cooperating or whatever (perhaps demanded more money!!!)
Reminder
If you wish to leave a comment, please make sure you’ve donated at least $5 in the last two months. The email address that you submit with your comment, will be automatically checked against a constantly updated list of recent donors. If you’re not on that list, neither I nor Manny will ever see your comment; it will be automatically deleted. The purpose of this, is to keep freeloading riffraff from wasting my time, in terms of having to review their comments, which are, not always but too often, disorganized, rambling, too long, or just too many. (One freeloader posted 10 comments in a day, LOL. Another one admitted to commenting-while-stoned, when he inquired why I didn’t publish his page-long garbage rambling.)

Comments Policy
I really appreciate good comments. Many people come back here, in-between posts, just to read the comments. If you help me entertain them, you’re my hero. A few rules: This is not a chat board. Your comment must primarily, largely involve and directly touch upon something that, or someone whom, I wrote about in the post you’re commenting on. Life reminiscences (if relevant), relating your relevant personal experiences, your job, your commie college girlfriend, your idiot family members, your Ukrainian coworker, etc., if relevant, are all HIGHLY encouraged. The most interesting content here… is YOU. The only exceptions to the on-topic requirement, are if you’re calling attention to a technical problem with the site, or briefly stating how much you love the content or this Comments Policy. Don’t try to “legitimize” an off-topic comment by throwing in some little pre-thought or afterthought about what I wrote. NO DISCUSSIONS THAT STRAY FROM MY TOPICS. My topics are the only common denominator here, and while it may amuse you, most readers have no interest in your thoughts on the Punic wars, or on some guy named Serge, or on how much you generally / generically don’t like the Ukraine and Zelensky; it’s your way to kill your own time, but it adds no value for others. Which means, if you’re responding to someone else’s comment, your response must still relate directly to one of my topics. Doesn’t matter how much you generously donated, these rules apply equally to everyone. 350 word limit, no exceptions, 351 words won’t be published, sorry. No rambling. If you’re not sure what “rambling” is, ask yourself, “Are others likely to understand and appreciate or enjoy my comment, or am I merely jerking off, or spewing toxic diarrhea that no one else wants to smell“? Nazis, commies, worshipful groupies of Mercouris/Johnson/etc., Jew baiters/haters, FBI agents-provocateurs, guys who forgot to take their Ritalin, passive-aggressive needling of the sysop or of other commenters (to include, by dipshits who think their attitude will fly if they mention possibly maybe potentially giving me money at some point—yes, “you people” are all the same), random questions that have no bearing on what I wrote (to include requests for my view on some commentator I’ve never heard of), no-punctuation writing by the smartphone generation, silly “Nadsat” lingo picked up from “The Saker” website, use of the BS term “SMO“, ALL CAPS writing (a sure sign of untreated autism), obsessives who just can’t leave a topic alone after they’ve already said everything (and just want to repeat themselves), and autistic bitching about the satanic USA and its evil pedo pervert elites and how they must be killed (or other bile in that vein), will not be tolerated. If you’ve got issues, this is not your “let it go” zone. Don’t write anything here, that your therapist wouldn’t approve of.
As for “people like Robert Barnes”, I understand on the black-white pill spectrum he’s brighter than you… but even he himself very often reminds his audience that there’s zero chance of a fair trial in Wash DC on any case related to politics
Also, I personally disagree with your notion that “he should have been more careful” or whatever. Even if he was completely squeeqy clean, they would simply manufacture evidence…………………………………..
Enough parroting for one day. Say something that actually comes from you… or go away.
Haha guilty as charged. (But if I’m drawing the rigbt conclusions from the wrong sources, does it even matter?)
I think a lot of the naiveté comes from the Barnes crowd because he explains the law, and obviously that has little to no bearing on the actual outcome of these cases.
Now, as I’ve come to know Robert, he’s not naive to the fact that courts are a joke, it’s just his fans are annoying because they think just because Trump didn’t break any laws, he won’t be put in jail.
That commenter saying Trump will get to present his J6/election case clearly hasn’t paid attention in the Alex Jones trial.
(Quick recap: he was issued a guilty verdict by default for failing to produce documents he didn’t possess, and during the jury trial which was only to determine the damages, he was forbidden from asserting his innocence)
Now, they can’t fuck Trump over as hard as they did Alex, because he’s much more radioactive to associate with.
The only way Trump doesn’t get convicted in a DC court with a DC judge and a DC jury is if there is such public backlash against it that the jury will
Hello, Hungarian youth. I assume you are parroting Robert Barnes again. Well, he’s entirely right on this one, obviously.
For the guy who asked about whether Odessa’s and Kharkov’s population want’s to join Russia.
Short answer:Yes
Longer answer:Yes, but according to polls they want more autonomy which Ukraine as a unitary state denies and Russia as a federation offers + same cultural background as the one in Russia.
So it’s a more of pick your poison kind of situation.
“According to polls”, LOL. Yeah, the Ukraine allows these kinds of polls, sure. Get the fuck out of here. And stay on-topic next time, see my Comments Policy.
OK, I read your posts regularly so fair enough, you deserve 3 coffees. Enjoy the caffeine. Your stuff is interesting.
Just one request: if religion comes up again in a post PLEASE meet me halfway……………………………………………………..
I write and say what I want, and I enforce every word of my Comments Policy. I don’t care about your feelings or what you think. Don’t get too cocky with your all-time total contribution of $20.
Dennis – agree with everything you say, although Saint Volodya Zalensky has a much stronger church and inquisition system behind him, as opposed to San Gonzalo who has a small scale pathetic theological system being him. He may not pop up at all for a year or two. Don’t forget he is only famous among a small group of people who is a follow-up on this issue on a high resolution. Most of his followers never heard of his “Coach red Pill” phase ,although Reddit has a large amount of accessible resources about it. Withing a year the current racket context will be forgotten too. VERY few people had seen him in person in the last 2 years. There is actually little proof he was ever present at the places he was supposed to be at the times he given. He is already a ghost. Even more than a sober Joe Biden. He mainly exists in the youtube sphere. And that is where people expect to find him.
Good call on Lira. In the early days of the UA conflict when it obvious that the mainstream media narrative was bullshit and I was grasping for any alternative source that could provide more objective reporting and analysis I stumbled upon Lira. I followed him for a little while and, in fairness, he provided some decent insights to those, like me, just getting up to speed. However, it wasn’t long until I got the sense that Lira was a self-promoting grifter whose analysis and prognostications weren’t worth shit and that there was something fishy about his shit-talking UA while still there.
Not that I take issue with self-promotion and earning money. I just prefer it Dreizin-style with full disclosure, transparency and willingness to admit previous errors.
“Hey shitbags, you damn-well know that my combination of autistic-level analytical skills, language proficiency, unique background and sources make for English-language content you can’t find elsewhere but all this research, analysis and publishing takes a shit ton of time, and I won’t use platforms like YouTube because they’ll force me to self-censor and avoid saying what I really think, so send me some damn money” is a touch in the abrasive side but I’ll happily take that in exchange for credible reporting and analysis.
Fuck yeah!!!
Great piece; especially love your political psychology lesson.
You know when the Occident-suicide-cult take a bow on this one? I really can’t wait to see how they play the ‘look, over there!’ game.
The Biden-clan slow-drip will serve us up a sacrificial mutton and lamb, if I’m reading you correctly.
I’ve seen a lot of people go down hard in sickness and in death since the vax debacle. Now, most people I know are still pro vax, pro Ukrops, pro EU, pro yadayada,
But how the fuck do they mind-wipe on this scale? This level of unreality/reality collision makes me queasy. Will they play the Putler card too hard? Are these muppets gonna find out, by accident, whether Minuteman is all rusted to pieces or can still fly?
Love to hear your take on whether the Russians will still deal (a la Minsk 3) with the EU or USA in good faithl. The trust may be lacking as some analysts have stated but without the means to win for Ukraine will the West really bow to the repatriation of Karkov and Odessa AND keep their word?
Sincerely,
G.F.
I very much concur with your POV as regards gear. Nonetheless, I would like to draw your attention to a fundamental truth on warfare – the LANCHESTER equations.
All criticism of that particular model may be true, but mind you: a model is a simplification of the real world made in full awareness of its limits of applicability.
However, the simplicity of the above-mentioned model is so convincing that it has always been accepted as an eminently suitable starting point. And it is also the only rule of thumb which is available.
Now, that model tells us that when two peer-armies go to war victory will be on the side with the lower rate of losses.
Draw your own conclusions from that w.r.t. UKR/RUS.
Your take on Lira being a “honey trap” is spot on sir. The same people that believe Lira is some super courageous bastion of truth telling, consequences be damned person to be almost worshipped, have similar characteristics of those that buy into Zelenskys constant wearing of what has to be one smelly assed green T-shirt showing him to be a brave in the field “leader of the cause”.
What I am curious about is how his reappearance will be played. Will he show up in a non disclosed location somewhere in the backwoods of Serbia with his uploads being lit by kerosene lantern? Or will he merely take a bath, get what little hair he has cut, shave and thus be completely unrecognizable and return to his “couples counseling” former profession having “died a martyr”? OR will he emerge arm in arm with Zelensky as a way to show all the “Putin Puppets” how stupid they have all been?
We really do live in a clown world.
M109? Aint they using 155 mm shells, those same as they chase all around the globe?
Hello. Yes, all NATO howitzers use the same caliber. Beyond that, sorry, I missed the point of your comment.
Gas is getting so expensive ($3.79/gal.), that I may have to buy or lease an electric vehicle, since my employer has free charging for EV’s.
My take on Gonzalo Lira is that he is a nutter. In his 3 part youtube programme he, not only gave away, in part his escape plan but divulged his cash wealth. This never endears one to an audience.
Erik, as others have said, the social media posts were delayed vs when he would have been actually trying to cross the border, so not as stupid as it looks. It got him publicity and raised his profile so if as seemed utterly obvious he wouldn’t get across, there was a record of what was going on. Also adds to the ‘legend’.
What doesn’t make sense is why he stayed in Ukraine for so long in the first place. He could, and should, have got the hell outta dodge when the tanks came over the border. I think he wanted the attention and kudos boost of being ‘reporting from a war zone’.
My take is that he’s one of these people who is actually very clever but also thinks he’s ‘too cool for school’ and believes that his smarts will ultimately get him out of any sticky situation. Having a US passport and being relatively well known, the odds are that he will get out of this eventually and might well make capital off his celebrity as the dissident voice that was arrested twice and made a Steve McQueen-like break for the border. He did say he was going to write a book …
Also, where did that $140k in Paypal come from? Seems to me that would likely have been cash that he got through online supporters in the time whilst he was in Ukraine and couldn’t easily move out to another account .. You don’t generally use Paypal as a deposit account – anyone sensible gets large amounts of money out ASAP lest Paypal freeze because they take issue with your opinions/politics (or just screw up generally) .. Paypal are incredibly active against people not on the right side of history – how come they didn’t mess with his account?.
Did you read what I wrote?
Eric I think its now very safe to say (unless you are a member of Lira’s cult) that nothing that Lira says or writes is to be taken as it is. Actually nothing he ever said made much sense, especially when looking into his pre Ukraine phase (Coach red Pill etc.) when he already gathered a reputation of not being reliable and in a totally unrelated to Ukraine or Russia area. You do not have to “know” what he is up for in order to KNOW what he is not.
BTW – Jacob. Not only that the “reply” option doesn’t work – due to some reason I can actually sometimes see comments made by others which are on an “awaiting approval” status.
The Ukrainian conscripts actually showed a remarkable level of courage, though when seen out of the pure military aspect – could also be interpreted as foolishness (I mean… what good did the German’s make for themselves by performing remarkably on the tactical level as late as Mid. April 1945 if it just prolonged Germany’s suffering and assured for more of them to die? so they can can win the admiration of future American couch soldiers?).
They Western cheerleaders, on the other hand, are pure cowards and demagogues. Sadly they won’t suffer or get punished – ever – for the crime of deluding this barely functioning former Soviet “provincia transDniepra” that going down the path it took will end with every 3rd Ukrainian man under 50 dead or damaged/traumatized for life, assuming he is not of a Kiev elite who buys his safely service at home or at the rear.
When, back in early 2022, I heard Western colleagues, who most likely own 3-4 of the Antony Beevor/Richard Overy/Max Hastings type of “History for the Hipster” WWII books, mock the Russian “incompetence”, saying that soon Ukraine will march at the red square, I was amazed of how stupid they were. Recalled reading those war diaries of German soldiers describing the earlier phases of Barbarossa in 1941. How at the first few weeks they were sure “its all over” but by Aug. 1941 became more and more worried of how this “worthless” enemy keeps on counter attacking and never stops to give the time to rest.
Did the Von Trapp family announce to the Germans that they were going to sneak out of the music festival and escape over the mountains? No. So, the question remains, why did Lira very publicly announce his ‘escape plan’. If he’s legit, something doesn’t make sense. But if he isn’t…..
Erik. I have no idea what Lira has really been up to but those video recordings were made many hours before they were uploaded onto his twitter account. It was broad daylight when the recordings were made and the middle of the night when they appeared on his twitter.
As far as I know, Lira is not on the Miritvorets hit list. Why not? Draw your own conclusions.
So if the spooky spooks are negotiating with Russia, and if Russia isn’t just playing them along, does that mean Russia isn’t determined to take Odessa and Kharkov? What’s your take, Jacob, on how the populations of those cities want the war to end? Do they want to be part of Russia or remain part of the Ukraine?
If Lira was planning to go to Hungary you don’t have to be a real stable genius to know that you don’t anounce you secret plan on X.
