>Almost everything you think you know about “Satanism” is wrong. If you think Satanism is a load of attention-seekers in flowing cloaks pretending to raise the dead while blaspheming against Christianity and generally being offensive… well, okay, you’re half-right. But it turns out that the word “Satanism” has evolved to describe a complex web of political and social ideologies, each of which has been shaped by the evolution of the internet.

>Satanism as a movement is at something of a crossroads. It has always dealt with what supporters call fear and misunderstanding from outsiders—it’s called Satanism, after all—but the modern age of social media, memes, clickbait journalism and “hot take” blogging has created confusion and disagreement even within its own ranks. Two groups, the Church of Satan and the Satanic Temple, are clashing over what it means to be a Satanist.

>An internal fight over “what is Satanism?” wouldn’t normally be interesting to the outside world, except that it’s part of a larger cultural pattern that we are all experiencing online. The American left is having a tug-of-war between classical liberals, who value diversity, and authoritarian censors who want to squash anything they deem offensive. Within the American right, the big business Washington insiders struggle against Tea Party libertines over what it means to be a “real conservative.”

>Painful ideological schisms in previously homogenous movements are everywhere, and they are being fuelled at least in part by the “democratization of information” on the internet. The internet is a place where anyone can hang their shingle and push their own activism under any banner they wish. As a result, even well-established groups are struggling to maintain an identity and prevent it from being usurped by activists who seek to change or abuse labels. And what’s happened to those people who call themselves “Satanists” is a textbook case of how the internet splits political movements into authoritarians and libertarians.

Another example of the Internet going mad.

Asteroid mining is all well and good, but I think it'd take less fuel per kilo to land on the moon and mine it and send the results back to earth than to go out to an asteroid. Added to that the fact that the moon has the potential to have a "lunar elevator" built out of M5 fiber (or similar materials) that could weigh less than 150 tonnes in total.

This would mean a huge reduction in cost of raw metal in space, as the delta-v required to get from L1 to LEO is only 3.1 km/s, or 1.3 to GEO, as opposed to a delta-v to get from the surface to LEO of about 10 km/s.

This global White genocide is not being carried out through mass murder – it is being carried out through political policies.

On October the 10th, protesters gathered outside the town hall in Sydney, Australia. The “Party for Freedom in Sydney” organized the protest to speak out against the extremely brutal mass murders in South Africa of which White people are specifically a target of.

“It is not a matter that is talked about often. It is never seen in the news. It isn’t discussed around the water-cooler.” wrote sydneytrads.com, which first reported on the protest.

“The murder of Whites in South Africa has a particularly savage element to it, above and beyond the merely criminal. It reeks of malice and racially motivated violence.”

“Some of the stories are truly horrific: a family brutally clubbed to death – save for the twelve year old son who was thrown into a scalding bath bound and gagged, whist the family dog was disemboweled.”

“A whole family cut up with an axe; a mother and daughter are raped and tortured seemingly for kicks; a man is stabbed 150 times and his wife and child shot at close range and other reports include the pouring of boiling water down the throats of an elderly couple and farmers being dragged behind vehicles. These are not mere acts of violence incidental to theft or other criminal activity.”

One eyewitness said “most of the people who yelled at us today were women, and all of them were White. I really don’t understand what they’re going on about. Why should the mass murder of Whites, many of whom are women and children, not be a cause for concern? That’s what we’re protesting about!”

Another person asked “do these people think we should be ignoring something that would be a cause of large scale public denunciations if it were perpetrated against, say, indigenous Australians? So it’s OK to treat Whites this way? Is that what I’m supposed to take from the abuse we got?”

The Sweden Democrat party has been gradually rising in popularity since it scored 12.9 percent in the country’s last general election in September 2014.

But a survey by pollsters YouGov published in Sweden’s Metro newspaper on Thursday suggested that 25.2 percent of those questioned would now vote for the nationalists, who are calling for dramatic cuts in immigration to Sweden.

Prime Minister Stefan Löfven’s Social Democrat party - which remains in favour of helping large numbers of refugees from war torn nations - scored 23.4 percent in the poll. The centre-right Moderates, led by Anna Kinberg Batra who took over from the country’s former Prime Minister Fredrik Reinfeldt earlier this year, saw their share cut to just 21.0, having previously scored higher than their ruling rivals in recent surveys.

The Sweden Democrats, with roots in the country's most radical extreme right, entered parliament in 2010 with the ambition of curbing Sweden's immigration and refugee policy.

"There is a significant amount of dissatisfaction in general with the government, and not least against its immigration and integration policies,

and the begging issue. Many don't see the Moderates as an alternative on these issues so they turn to us instead," Sweden Democrats party secretary Richard Jomshof told news agency TT in a comment on the strong poll showing.

Political scientists were split on how to interpret the YouGov poll which was carried out last week, following both a high profile campaign by the Sweden Democrats to ban begging on Stockholm’s subway, and a double stabbing outside an Ikea store, for which two Eritrean asylum seekers were arrested, with one admitting to the crime.

Sören Holmberg from Gothenburg University told Metro: “This is not like this is very surprising. We have long seen this tendency that SD [the Sweden Democrats] are heading for an increase [in support]”.

Stina Moran, another political expert, said the survey suggested that other mainstream parties had not done enough to shape dPost too long. Click here to view the full text.

Why not? Is there actually anything wrong with being "racist"? What about throwing out the immigrants who rape, murder, rob or just take from the socialist system without giving anything? Ethnocentrism is how the immigrants were raised, so when they come to white countries they only help their own race.

Anastasia Lechtchenko told law enforcement officials that she killed her mother and sister because they were going to put a hex on her, commonly referred to as brujeria or witchcraft.

The girl has been having problems with her mother, causing her to run away from home for a time before being located in the drug cartel-infested state of Sinaloa, Mexico. As of now, she remains free until a judge in Tijuana signs the arrest order.

Using witchcraft or brujeria against someone in Mexico has become a common way to solve all kinds of problems in society, such as illness, money problems, delinquent behavior in children, and even revenge. About this widespread problem, Mujahid Hussein told the Christian Monitor the following.

When former prime minister Fredrik Reinfeldt in the defining moments of the election campaign of 2014 urged the public to open “their hearts” to more asylum seekers it proved that Sweden was different, or as some might put it ‘weird’.

Few conservative leaders would have done what Reinfeldt did at the time. There has been a strong consensus in Sweden among the established parties about the benefits of immigration. The kind of anti-immigrant rhetoric that has become norm in many other European countries has not filtered into the mainstream press.

The Sweden Democrats are excluded from influence in parliament through a deal Social Democratic prime minister Stefan Löfven did with the centre right over Christmas. The deal saved his government and has therefore been controversial within the centre right: “Why are we saving a Social Democratic government?” many conservatives have been asking themselves during the last six months. “Is it really that important to keep the Sweden Democrats away from influence?”

Reinfeldt’s successor as leader of the opposition, Anna Kinberg Batra, has however defended the deal very firmly.

The internal conflicts about how to handle the fact that around 18 per cent of the Swedish electorate say they would be voting for the Sweden Democrats are however not limited to the opposition.

Stefan Löfven is governing together with the Greens and the Social Democrats and their junior coalition partner tend to have different views about how to deal with the challenges posed by around 70,000 asylum seekers coming to Sweden every year. The Social Democratic finance ministry has proposed lower benefits for asylum seekers in order to keep costs in check. This was blocked by the Greens. The same thing happened with proposals for things like a ‘safe country of origin’ list, to speed up the denial of applications from people coming from countries not considered dangerous enough. This kind of tension within the government will probably not go away.

Meanwhile Löfven has been criticised for being invisible. Nobody can tell what his political project is. The question “Who is in charge?” is often askPost too long. Click here to view the full text.

The chief economist of The Economist magazine, Simon Baptist, believes that the Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP) trade deal is dead following the failure of final round negotiations in Hawaii last week. Here’s Baptist’s latest commentary on the TPP from his latest email newsletter:

The latest talks on the Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP) did not end well and election timetables in Canada and the US mean that the prospect of a deal being ratified before the end of 2016 (at the earliest) is remote. The usual problem of agricultural markets was prominent, headlined by Canada’s refusal to open its dairy sector. For New Zealand—one of the four founder countries of the TPP, along with Brunei, Chile and Singapore—this was a non-negotiable issue. Dairy was not the only problem. As usual, Japan was worried about cars and rice, and the US about patent protection for its pharma companies.

The TPP was probably doomed when the US joined

The killers came from the forest, the very same forest Raimundo Santos Rodrigues so loved.

The environmentalist had spent years defending one of the last pristine swathes of the eastern Amazon rain forest from loggers, miners and farmers. But his activism had earned him enemies in Brazil’s northern state of Maranhão.

And on Tuesday afternoon, those enemies pounced.

Santos Rodrigues and his wife were riding their motorbike from the market back to the Biological Reserve of Gurupi when two men suddenly emerged from the treeline, witnesses told local media. As the couple crossed a bridge, the gunmen opened fire, hitting both the environmentalist and his wife.

To ensure their objective, the assassins ran up to Santos Rodrigues and stabbed the injured man to death. His wife, Maria da Conceição Chaves Lima, was rushed to the hospital and is expected to live.

Santos Rodrigues had been a “marked” man because of his environmentalism, said a man who spoke to G1 anonymously for fear of also being targeted.

“Loggers hated him because he denounced them,” said a co-worker, also anonymously. “He was very active in the region, defending the community, attending the Union of Rural Workers of Bom Jardim.”

Officials have promised a thorough investigation and are treating the murder as an attack on a public official. Santos Rodrigues was a volunteer with the Chico Mendes Institute for Biodiversity Conservation, part of the Ministry of the Environment.

“It will be treated with top priority,” said Alexandre Saraiva, a federal police superintendent.

But that promise appears hollow against the bloody reality in Brazil, widely considered the most dangerous country on earth for environmentalists.

Between 2002 and 2013, at least 448 environmentalists were killed in Brazil, according to Global Witness. That equates to roughly half of all the environmentalists murdered worldwide during that period.

According to local watchdog CPT, the grim tally is even worse: More than 1,500 Brazilians have been killed over the past 25 years fighting deforestation, and another 2,000 have received deaPost too long. Click here to view the full text.

The problem is particularly vexing in Brazil, a country with a strong activist community — one partly created by past incidents of violence.

The conservation agency for which Santos Rodrigues was working at the time of his murder is named after Chico Mendes, Brazil’s most famous fallen environmentalist. A rubber tapper, union activist and defender of the Amazon, Mendes was murdered on Dec. 22, 1988. He had received death threats because of his efforts to protect the rain forest from cattle ranchers. But policemen assigned to protect him were instead playing dominoes when a rancher crept up to Mendes’s house and shot him as he showered, according to the Guardian.

“It was like shooting a jaguar,” the rancher, Darcy Alves, said. He and his father, Darly, were convicted and sentenced to 19 years in prison.

Mendes’s murder led to the establishment of huge environmental reserves, or rebios. But it didn’t stem the violence against his fellow activists.

Perhaps the most disturbing environmentalist murder occurred in May 2011. Eerily, it was a near carbon copy of Tuesday’s killing.

José Claudio Ribeiro da Silva, known as “Ze Claudio,” was a rubber tapper and activist like Mendes. When Ribeiro da Silva organized protests against the illegal logging of public land, he and his wife received a death threat: “Get ready to be silenced forever.”

In November of 2010, Ribeiro da Silva made a defiant speech in Manaus. “I live from the forest, I’ll protect it at any cost. And that’s why I live with the constant threat of a bullet to my head, because I denounce the loggers and charcoal producers,” he said. “I’m here talking to you today, but a month from now I might have disappeared.”

Six months later, Ribeiro da Silva narrowly survived an assassination attempt when shots were fired into his backyard. Finally, on May 24, 2011, his luck ran out.

Like Santos Rodrigues four years later, Ribeiro da Silva and his wife were riding home on their motorcycle when they were ambushed. Masked men sprang out from nut trees and shot the couple 15 times, then Post too long. Click here to view the full text.
