90% młodych Polaków nie wie, co naprawdę wydarzyło się w nocy z 4 na 5 czerwca 1992 roku. To nie była “zwykła polityka”. To była noc strachu, zdrady i decyzji, które zatruwają Polskę do dziś.

Komuniści w garniturach “liberałów” zatrzymali lustrację. Donald Tusk im w tym pomógł.

To jest historia, której Tusk NIE chce, żebyś znał.

Po 1989 roku Polska była wolna tylko na papierze.

Sądy, media, służby, biznes wszędzie dawni ludzie systemu. Przemalowali się na “proeuropejskich liberałów.”

Wielu naprawdę bało się odwetu komunistów.
Ale też wielu chciało po prostu ochronić swoje interesy.

Elity promowały “grubą kreskę.” Premier Mazowiecki: “Rysujemy grubą kreskę pod przeszłością.”

W teorii: narodowa zgoda. W praktyce: bezkarność dla komunistów.

Dlaczego? Bo wielu z tych “nowych Europejczyków” to byli właśnie ludzie starego systemu.

The dot product is used everywhere in games, often with unit vectors to determine how aligned they are.

But if it’s never really clicked for you, this thread is full of visual examples. Image
The unit circle is a great starting point, because for a unit vector â with angle θ, cos(θ) is just â.x

Calculating the dot product of â and (1, 0):

dot(â, x̂) = â.x = cos(θ) Image
For any two unit vectors, imagine rotating the whole space so one lines up with the +x direction.

That rotation doesn’t change the angle between them, so we can visually confirm:

dot(â, b̂) = cos(θ)

Charlie Munger was a big believer in mental models.

But he’s not the only one...

Warren Buffett, Ray Dalio, and Peter Lynch also use mental models before investing in a company.

The 8 most powerful mental models I've learned from genius investors: Image
Image
1. Circle of Competence (Warren Buffett)

Only invest in areas you fully understand.

Buffett focuses on industries he has a deep understanding of, avoiding those outside his expertise.

If you don’t understand how a business makes money, don’t invest in it.
2. Margin of Safety (Benjamin Graham)

Buy assets well below their intrinsic value to reduce risk.

This is one of the most important principles in value investing.

This model teaches that the price you pay can offer protection against volatility and mistakes. Image

VIRGINIA'S DESCENT INTO HELL: DEMOCRATS' 2026 LEGISLATIVE ABOMINATION UNMASKED

A THREAD.

And please take the time to read this whether you are in Virginia or not. You need to understand what is staring us in the fucking face. And this is bad. Very, very bad.

Listen closely, because what I'm about to lay out isn't hyperbole...it's a calculated, cold-blooded assault on everything that once made Virginia a bastion of American liberty.

The Democrats, drunk on their trifecta control of the General Assembly under Governor Spanberger, have unleashed a legislative blitzkrieg in the 2026 session that reads like a manifesto from the depths of totalitarian fantasy.

This isn't governance; it's a psychological warfare operation designed to break the spirit of free people, erode sovereignty, and entrench one-party rule through fraud, fear, and financial strangulation.

History whispers warnings we ignore at our peril. Every empire that fel...Rome, Weimar Germany, Venezuela...began with the systematic disarmament of citizens, the corruption of electoral integrity, and the weaponization of criminal justice against the law-abiding while coddling predators.

Psychologically, this is classic authoritarian grooming: flood the system with chaos, make people dependent on the state for "safety," then tighten the noose under the guise of compassion.

Virginia Democrats aren't incompetent; they're precise predators executing a playbook refined over decades of progressive radicalism.

Here is the venomous core of their agenda, bill by bill, category by category. This is no exaggeration...these are real proposals introduced in Richmond as of January 2026.

🧵
ETERNAL ELECTION RIGGING: TURNING VIRGINIA INTO A ONE-PARTY PLANTATION

Democrats know power flows from ballots, real or manufactured. Their opening salvo is a fortress around electoral fraud:

I. HB111: Bans meaningful voter roll cleanups, ensuring ghosts, duplicates, and non-residents linger forever.

II. HB968: Criminalizes hand-counting ballots...the gold standard for transparency used throughout history to prevent theft.

III. HB773 & HB82: Extends mail-in and absentee ballot counting for days or weeks post-election, inviting "found" votes in the dead of night, a tactic perfected in 2020's contested battlegrounds.

IV. HB493: Legalizes internet voting, a hacker's dream and a security nightmare that no serious nation trusts for high-stakes elections.

V. HB965: Joins the National Popular Vote Compact, nullifying Virginia's electoral votes and handing presidential power to coastal megacities...pure subversion of the Founders' federalist genius.

VI. HB964, HB963, HB1014: Automatically restores voting rights to felons (even violent ones) and the mentally incompetent upon release, diluting the franchise with populations historically manipulated by demagogues.

VII. HJ4: Gerrymanders congressional districts into a 10-1 or 9-2 Democrat lock.

VIII. HB967: Creates a state-level Voting Rights Act to federalize local elections under progressive oversight.

This isn't reform; it's fortification. Psychologically, it's induced helplessness...convince citizens their vote doesn't matter unless "fortified" by the regime.

Historically, it's how the Soviet Union maintained 99% "victories." Virginia is being transformed into a machine that manufactures consent.
CRIMINAL CODDLING: UNLEASHING PREDATORS WHILE PUNISHING VICTIMS

Progressive "justice reform" is a euphemism for societal suicide. By gutting consequences, Democrats signal to criminals: Virginia is open season.

I. HB863: Abolishes mandatory minimums for rape, manslaughter, assault on police, child pornography distribution, and repeat violent felonies...handing judges carte blanche to slap wrists.

II. HB357: Makes bail denial nearly impossible, even for armed robbery or aggravated assault.

III. HB853: Grants early release parole to murderers, rapists, and terrorists.

IV. HB244: Slashes robbery penalties to near-slaps.

V. HB1070: Bars prosecutors from mentioning prior convictions in trial...even identical crimes...turning justice into amnesia theater.

This is engineered chaos. Psychologically, it's broken-windows theory inverted: tolerate predation, normalize violence, erode public trust in order.

Historically, it's the Weimar collapse redux...leniency breeding street terror until citizens beg for strongmen. Virginia's streets will run red while elites hide behind private security.

A billionaire known as “Bitcoin Jesus” was under indictment for massive criminal tax fraud and very likely going to prison.

Then, he hired a “Friend of Trump” and the criminal charges disappeared.

How did they do it? @AASchapiro and I spent months getting the inside story. Image
The billionaire, Roger Ver, is not hardcore MAGA. He’s a libertarian who renounced his US citizenship a decade ago on what he called “the happiest day of his life.”

When he left, he controlled about 1% of the world supply of Bitcoin. The DOJ claimed he dodged ~$50m in taxes. Image
Prosecutors felt their case was airtight, per those familiar: Emails of Ver misleading his own lawyers about his assets. A speech in which Ver said that friends ask him how to use BTC to evade taxes.

If Google wants you to pay for Gmail storage, do this first.

I went from 14.9/15GB to 4GB in one night.

I hope this helps you as it has helped me:
Step 1: Diagnose the Problem

Don't guess where the bloat is. Go to .

This gives you the exact breakdown.

- Is it mostly huge emails?
- 4K videos in Photos?
- Or big PDFs in Drive?

Focus your energy on the biggest offender first. For most, it's Gmail attachments.one.google.com/storage
Step 2: The "Big Fish" Search

Open Gmail on Desktop (this is much harder on mobile).

In the search bar, type: has:attachment larger:20M

These are the massive files clogging your arteries. Select all, and delete them if you don't need them.

DR has been doing an excellent job, but some context is missing, specifically around the three real purposes of Davos.

Collusion
Proof of life
Narrative testing

Let me explain 🧵
Note: I’ve never attended, but I have close friends who do, and I’ve reported for decades from similar off-the-record gatherings hosted by billionaires in the shipping and industrial sectors. Davos isn’t unique. It’s just the most visible version.
PRIMARY PURPOSE: COLLUSION

Before the Sherman Antitrust Act of 1890, collusion wasn’t illegal—it was normal. Industry leaders met openly, wrote letters, and signed agreements to divide markets, suppress wages, avoid taxes, and eliminate competition.

This coordination was enforced by bankers. If you didn’t play along, you didn’t get financing.

We’re taught that J.P. Morgan personally orchestrated this system for profit, but when he died, his estate was under $80 million. Immense by modern standards, yes—but a fraction of Rockefeller or Carnegie. Morgan wasn’t the ultimate beneficiary. He was an agent, largely acting on behalf of private families in London.

When Theodore Roosevelt doubled down on antitrust enforcement, that model broke. The British elite needed a replacement. Cecil Rhodes’ answer was the Round Table—a secret society designed to coordinate power indirectly. But secrecy is fragile. It gets exposed.

So they adapted.

Instead of secret societies, they created trade organizations—the precursors to modern NGOs. Each industry got one. Media was invited to public sessions to provide cover, while real decisions were made in private, behind closed doors. “Transparency” without access.

But that only solved coordination within industries. How do you collude across industries?

You capture the pipeline.

Elite universities became the sorting mechanism. Promising candidates were identified early—often via scholarships like Rhodes—and routed into industry, finance, government, or think tanks.

Instead of industries negotiating directly, coordination was outsourced to think tanks. Institutions like Chatham House published “best practices” and “future trends.” Anyone could read them—but only those trained at elite schools truly understood what they meant or how to implement them.

This system accelerated during the Roosevelt and Taft years and culminated in the election of an academic—Woodrow Wilson. The public trusted academics. That trust proved invaluable.

The result?
•Tariffs killed via the 16th Amendment
•Monetary policy handed to banking interests via the Federal Reserve Act
•State power weakened through the 17th Amendment
•And, ultimately, U.S. entry into WWI

At its most basic level, that’s what Davos is today. Anyone can attend if they have money. The collusion happens elsewhere.

▶️ Was bedeutet „Remigration“
(auf Deutsch Deportation)
nach Sellner?

▶️ Demnach sollten drei Gruppen Deutschland verlassen:
👉Asylbewerber,
👉Ausländer mit Bleiberecht und
👉„nicht assimilierte“ (deutsche) Staatsbürger.

▶️ Diese Menschen mit Migrationshintergrund sollten durch
▶️ „maßgeschneiderte Gesetze“ und
▶️ „hohen Anpassungsdruck“ zur Auswanderung bewegt werden.
▶️ Sellner dachte Berichten von Teilnehmern zufolge auch an eine gepachtete Fläche in Nordafrika,
um dort
‼️bis zu zwei Millionen Menschen „hinzubewegen“‼️.
Die Vorstellung, dass Millionen Deutsche mit Migrationshintergrund des Landes verwiesen werden sollten, trieb in den Wochen nach Bekanntwerden des Treffens mehr als eine Million Demonstranten auf die Straßen.
