OffG’s Lab Leak “I Told You So”
Back in January, as part of our “predicting 2025” series, I wrote that 2025 would be the year of the Lab Leak reveal, and that the lab leak theory (LLT) would be “quasi-officially true” by the end of the year:

Lab leak theory has already come a long way from barely even a fringe idea to an acceptable alternative, but in 2025 we expect it to take the final step, becoming the majority view.

Grief, Guilt and Graffiti — Why the Legacy of “Killer Carbide” in Bhopal Must Not Fade from Public View
This article reassembles existing evidence to challenge a dominant narrative of the Bhopal disaster as a closed historical tragedy, arguing instead that it remains an ongoing disaster.
While activists have previously called attention to this perspective, the article foregrounds it as its central theme. The criminality of Union Carbide is a continuing crisis that affects multiple generations.
By connecting Bhopal to the broader impacts of the Green Revolution and the chemical paradigm in Indian agriculture, the article also situates the issue within a wider critique of corporate power.

Trump’s Palantir-Powered Surveillance Is Turning America Into a Digital Prison
Call it what it is: a panopticon presidency. President Trump’s plan to fuse government power with private surveillance tech to build a centralized, national citizen database is the final step in transforming America from a constitutional republic into a digital dictatorship armed with algorithms and powered by unaccountable, all-seeing artificial intelligence.
This isn’t about national security. It’s about control.

A Cold Spring in a Hot World
Of course it is all orchestrated. Or it seems so. For example, why is this Spring here in this fair country the coldest since 1967? Why that year?
I’ll tell you why: it was the year that Baby Boomers were tortured into patriotism and now it is whirling and twirling and swirling us all back into remembering even as many of us are desperately trying to stay in the present mostly.
So we can figure out how to operate our cellphones if nothing else—in case we fall down and can’t get up or something.

The Real Agenda Behind the “Burqa Ban”
Two days ago, Reform Party MP Sarah Pochin made a splash when she called for the British government to ban the burqa.
Many European countries – including France and Belgium – have already banned the garment, and somewhat ironically the Euro-sceptic Reform party seems keen to join them.
It is increasingly common for those on the authoritarian “left” to argue for banning burqas on the grounds they are oppressive and misogynistic, while the right encompasses those angles alongside xenophobic ideas of “security” – meaning it’s dangerous to let Muslims conceal their faces because they might blow up or something.…...

“BritCard” – Inside Labour’s “Progressive” Digital ID
A new report from a British government think tank offers some clear insights into the Starmer administration’s plan to introduce a universal digital ID.

But for an AI, there would be no death. It would live forever. And then you’d have an immortal dictator from which we can never escape.”

Let’s talk about…Israel’s Iran Strikes
We in the UK woke up to the news that, overnight, the Israeli military had launched “targeted strikes” against Iran, specifically nuclear facilities for the enrichment of Uranium (allegedly) and military leadership.
So far, Iran has claimed five people have died as a result of the strikes, including Hossein Salami the leader of the Revolutionary Guard. The Iranians also claim some civilian casualties, including children, so we can probably expect that the number will increase at some point.

I keep hearing from the sheep-types that they really don’t care if we lose all of our freedoms. They don’t care about losing privacy because they don’t have anything to hide, they don’t care about losing free speech because people should be punished for saying bad and/or dangerous things (and they have nothing to say that would be considered bad and/or dangerous).

Chronocide: How technocracy is erasing the past, present and future
The past is another country, according to LP Hartley’s opening line of The Go-Between. Nowadays, we may say the same of the present, as the pace of technological and demographic change quickens.

Countries might not exist in any recognisable form as a new world order is cemented. But it is not only borders that are being undrawn.

It’s Not a Broken System: From Food to Development, It’s a Masterpiece of Control
Industrial agriculture is not a system in crisis. It is a system in command. Engineered with precision, it reflects the civilisational logic of industrial modernity: domination over cooperation, profit over sufficiency, scale over ecology. It is not malfunctioning—it is functioning exactly as designed.
Across three volumes—Food, Dependency and Dispossession (2022), Sickening Profits (2023) and Power Play: The Future of Food (2024)—I have mapped this critique in layered terms.
