Aos emocionados com a China, deixa eu desenhar melhor: não há apologista da China que não ganhe dinheiro com isso. Também já trabalhei para a China, mas muito antes de o oportunista médio BR crescer o olho. Esses, posso dizer com toda a tranquilidade, estão saqueando o país.
Chipre é o melhor exemplo hoje da diferença que uma administração faz. Quem esteve no Chipre ou trabalhou lá sabe do que estou falando. A parte administrada pela União Europeia é o lado grego, e o lado sob influência do Islã político é o lado turco. Não, não somos todos iguais.

Europe isn't just a continent.
It's a peninsula made of peninsulas.
Geography explains more of European history than most people realise.
Sempre bom ser transparente. Minhas análises são 100% minhas e da minha vivência, não teórica, mas prática no que trato. Não acompanho ninguém. Observo tudo que é falado e vou atrás de entender de onde está vindo. E a real é que a maioria está papagaiando sem experiência no fato.

Ferrero Rocher: the story of one of Italy’s sweetest icons 🇮🇹✨
In 1982, one of the world’s most famous chocolates was born: Ferrero Rocher
Behind its creation was Michele Ferrero, the Piedmontese entrepreneur who transformed a small family business into an international confectionery empire
Born in Alba, Italy, in 1925, Michele Ferrero was a private man, deeply attached to his roots and to Catholic tradition
Under his leadership, Ferrero created some of the most recognizable products in the history of the Italian confectionery industry, from Nutella and Kinder to Rocher
The name chosen for the new chocolate was French: rocher means “rock”
Its shape and irregular surface, covered in chopped hazelnuts, evoke the image of a small rock
But there may also be a more personal story behind this choice
Michele Ferrero was particularly devoted to Our Lady of Lourdes
It is said that he regularly made pilgrimages to the shrine and also organized trips to Lourdes for his employees
According to a widely reported account, the name Rocher may refer to the Rocher de Massabielle, the rock formation inside the grotto at Lourdes where Bernadette Soubirous experienced the Marian apparitions in 1858
A famous phrase attributed to Michele Ferrero also offers a glimpse into his personal devotion: “We owe Ferrero’s success to Our Lady of Lourdes. Without her, we can do very little”
Over the years, Ferrero Rocher has become one of Italy’s sweetest icons: a whole hazelnut at its center, cocoa and hazelnut cream, a crispy wafer shell, milk chocolate and chopped hazelnuts, all wrapped in its unmistakable golden foil
One important clarification: this story is a widely circulated and plausible anecdote, given Michele Ferrero’s devotion, but it has never been officially confirmed by the company….

Rosalia concorrendo no GRAMMY LATINO só pq canta espanhol, sem ser latina, e suas músicas não estrarem em uma categoria "internacional" só mostra como o mundo é doido e AMERICA LATINA segue sendo pista pra europeu brincar de ser estrela #LatinGRAMMY
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
Os Latin Grammys incluem artistas de Espanha como Rosalía (elegível por regras de Ibero-América e ≥60% de letras em espanhol/português); ela venceu prêmios por mérito como Álbum do Ano 2026 e compete em categorias dos Grammys principais.

Western democracies (of a Judeo-Christian cultural matrix) have a unique Achilles heel they often mistake for a strength when in reality, from a global geopolitical standpoint, it is objectively (and measurably) a liability and needs to be addressed as a national security priority right away.
Opening doors and allowing people from various ethnic backgrounds that don't relate with the former, especially Asians, to become citizens and gain political power that advances the interests and agendas of their home countries is the kind of influence that would be unthinkable in reverse in those same countries. Yet for some reason many Westerners treat it as a moral virtue. It is not.
Relative peace in the world has long depended on keeping aggressive powers in check. What the West is doing now sends the message that it has either decided its own decline is inevitable or that it believes any consequences it suffers are somehow deserved. Well, I reject both of those ideas, and will use this profile to raise awareness of those issues and provide the foundation for political forces that understand that as well. If you have a problem with that, you are in the wrong place.

The Muslim barbarian Turks have been occupying our holy island of Cyprus since 1974. They invaded, raped women from 12 to 80 years old, slaughtered, and expelled thousands of Greeks. Soon Cyprus will be free and united with mother Greece. Trust God’s plan; He put His signature.
