I'm looking for an editor. I need to polish a 25 000 words long study on a certain military industrial complex. So, I am looking for a:

- Native English speaker
- Preferably with media/academia/other relevant experience
- Preferably familiar with defence/tech/manufacturing
In the beginning I will give you a general introduction in what it is all about. Most probably, in the course of work we'll have to organise further one-two calls with my team. Compensation is negotiable. Please DM me, if interested
PS I think I could offer around 1500-2000 usd for a well-qualified candidate with relevant experience and competences. If you've heard about AutoCAD or SolidWorks for example that certainly gonna be a plus point
PPS DMs are open, text me if interested

Ukraine has won the battle but not the war (yet). The sooner it wins, the less people will die and the less the poor of the world will suffer from the supply chain disruptions. Donating to the Ukrainian military, you can accelerate its victory. I collected some verified links🧵

As a result of the 1908-1913 revolution and subsequent purges, by the start of the WWI Turkish ruling class was aggressively and outspokenly secular. Jacobin-style secular, I would say. Halil Kut literally ordered to pour the strong alcohol (raki) on his grave
When I say "Jacobin style" I mean it literally rather than figuratively. In the early 20th c Turkey was run by the francophone elite speaking on a language of and with the tropes of the French Revolution. For example, when an army NCO was killed by the dervish-instigated crowd...
Ataturk ordered to proclaim that town where it happened the "ville maudite", evacuate population and destroy it completely, leaving only a monument to its destruction

Anyone with the basic knowledge of French history would get the reference

Paradox of ecumenism. The very idea that Turks and Azeri share the "similar religion" could rise in prominence only after Turkey (moderately) and Azerbaijan (radically) secularised

Secularisation -> Few care about Shia-Sunni differences -> We are one people, actually
Same with Christianity. I'll argue that secularisation made it easier to build pan-Christian movements. Few know or care about filioque, etc., so it is now much easier to work out a pan-Christian agenda than in the age when people actually knew or cared about the Christian creed
Secularization -> Dogma forgotten -> Substantial differences forgotten.

What remains then? Only the vague idea of cultural similarity. Which is more than enough to build a political alliance. Turkish-Azeri alliance is possible largely because these two countries secularised

It's time to update the list of introductory threads

1. By February 27, I concluded that Russia would lose this war. Russian army was overrated, Ukrainian - underrated, while Russian political goals misunderstood. They planned for 1968-style pacification

2. Avocado economy: Why Russia cannot manufacture anything?

An industry's level of complexity negatively correlates with the rank of interest groups controlling it in the Russian hierarchy. The more mafia-like, the more dominant, the simpler the industry

3. Russian military industry completely depends upon technological import from the West, not from China. Whereas Kremlin closed their eyes on importing European equipment and pretending it's Russian, it jailed those who tried to do the same with Chinese

I disagree. It's not only about a threat of a criminal prosecution, which you always keep in mind when in Russia. You see, when you are trying to persuade people in whatever, it makes sense to use only those arguments which those you want to persuade (and not you) see as strong
Russian public opinion won't see "we are hurting others" as a strong argument. We hurt others? Well, fuck them. But "we are hurting ourselves"may be a strong argument to stop doing what you do. Therefore, politics-wise it makes sense to point to our losses than to abstract morals
Also, I am somewhat critical about the Moscow oppositional establishment. That's not because they're uniquely horrible people, but because they:

1) strive for the unlimited power over the empire
2) share the imperial ethos

Ergo, it is a shadow Tsar's Court which I won't support

I can neither confirm nor deny that certain regions trained and armed volunteer battalions but didn't send them to war. They make zero PR, so local pro-war community is surprised, interpreting this silence as a PR failure. These regions are Russian btw, not ethnic republics
"Russian" in this context means = perceived as Russian, especially outside of Russia
I have no information about the military buildup in the ethnic republics though. That's understandable: they're constantly lowkey suspected in separatism, so are being watched closely by Kremlin. Most probably no "ethnic" region will have anything like its own army anytime soon
