HABBENING: US Elections 2020
•�November 3, 2020
•�1,400 Words •�220 Comments
The last election I watched with a Russian friend at the London School of Economics student room in 2016. The cope and seethe amongst those rootless cosmopolitans was out of this world, as the only Trump supporters in the room it was like being the physical embodiment of trollface.jpg. I don't expect to see a... Read More
PropOrNot Might be a Michael Weiss Project
•�January 26, 2018
•�200 Words •�16 Comments
Remember the November 2016 Washington Post story on the secretive outfit that furnished a list of purportedly Russian-backed "fake news" websites? Well, thanks to some online sleuthing from a couple of bloggers/journalists, there's good reason to believe that PropOrNot was the brainchild of Michael D. Weiss and the Interpreter staff. Hank DeBwankey in Who’s behind... Read More
Liu Xiaobo, Chinese Neocon
•�July 13, 2017
•�700 Words •�57 Comments
For what my views are worth - which is very little, especially in China - I am always for freedom of speech. That said, it's worth clarifying that the late Liu Xiaobo was much more a Western nationalist than a genuine humans right activist. "[It would take] 300 years of colonialism. In 100 years of...

Trump Is Bad Because He Did Business with Russia
•�March 16, 2016
•�500 Words •�13 Comments
What a coincidence according to Bloomberg's Josh Rogin, a journalist who has been been one of the more outspoken ones in demanding intervention against Assad, that a billionaire businessman with a global hotel chain would have ever wished to explore business opportunities in Russia. Trump’s Long Romance With Russia: Why practically nobody else was doing... Read More
Living Not By Lies in Lithuania

Not a month goes by without the Ukrainian nationalists of multinational nationality otherwise known as the Russian non-systemic pro-Western opposition reminding us why they have sub-margin of error approval ratings. Their latest Kunstkamera of a conference, the so-called Free Russian Forum, was held on 9-10 March in Vilnius, Lithuania. Some 250 specimens turned out to... Read More
How Banging Your Cousins Led to the Islamic State
•�October 3, 2015
•�1,000 Words •�35 Comments
Apologies for the tabloidy title. This is an otherwise serious post. It is well known that higher rates of cousin marriages - especially the father's brother's daughter (FBD) type that is common in the Arab Muslim world - tends to increase clannishness and depress IQs. It is often discussed in HBD circles. The main focus... Read More
Putin's UN Speech
•�September 29, 2015
•�1,300 Words •�15 Comments
Alexander Mercouris has a typically excellent writeup at Russia Insider. I have to say that it is quite a masterpiece of redpill trolling. Here are some of my own highlights of the speech and brief commentary: Good start. In fact, at that time, Crimea was literally part of the RSFSR. Always good to work in... Read More
A Conversation with Weiss
•�September 4, 2013
•�1,700 Words •�6 Comments
As far as I understand, Michael D. Weiss is one of those neocons who loves Guantanamo but has a special soft spot in his heart for those Muslims who happen to be fighting Russia or some other state that the US doesn't like much. When he isn't chumming it up with his jihadist pals in... Read More
Obama, Romney, and the Reset

Latest contribution to the US-Russia.org Expert Discussion Panel on the question of which US Presidential candidate is best able to meet the challenges ahead: When predicting election outcomes, I prefer to listen to those who put their money where their mouths are. As of the time of writing, the Intrade predictions market gives a 66%... Read More
Edward Lozansky - America Hates A Russia of Its Own Invention
•�June 3, 2012
•�1,700 Words •�17 Comments
I will be jetting off tomorrow to Washington, but before I do - a translation of Edward Lozansky's interview with Komsomolskaya Pravda (Америка ненавидит Россию, которую сама себе придумала). Lozansky, who used to be a Soviet dissident, is the organizer of the World Russia Forum and has many strong, pertinent views on why it's a... Read More

About Anatoly Karlin

I am a blogger, thinker, and businessman in the SF Bay Area. I’m originally from Russia, spent many years in Britain, and studied at U.C. Berkeley.

One of my tenets is that ideologies tend to suck. As such, I hesitate about attaching labels to myself. That said, if it’s really necessary, I suppose “liberal-conservative neoreactionary” would be close enough.

Though I consider myself part of the Orthodox Church, my philosophy and spiritual views are more influenced by digital physics, Gnosticism, and Russian cosmism than anything specifically Judeo-Christian.
