USSR: Stalin’s [1953] Funeral – Greatest of the 20th Century – and the Resulting Stampede! (27.2.2025)

27/02/2025 Adrian (釋大道)

Since the recent détente of the US and modern Russia – the Russian-language Yandex search-engine has once again become easily available via the Western internet. Since I last regularly accessed the “deep” Russian internet – I have noticed that whereas there was about a 50%-50% distribution of pro and anti Stalin articles – a new narrative has been ordered which portrays Stalin as a mass killer who also achieved one or two great achievements for the Russian people (the new orientation is roughly 25& pro and 75% anti). This is a Western (capitalist), reactionary, Trotskyite, and entirely fascist attitude. Furthermore, it is pseudo-history. Joseph Stalin was working-class (most old Bolsheviks were middle-class) and was Georgian – not Russian (Stalin rejected all forms of nationalism – including Russian). The Soviet Union was a collective of around 15 or 16 countries (depending on era) that acted in Socialist collaboration. The history of the Soviet Union is not the history of Russia – even if Russia was the socio-economic driving force. The point of the 1917 Revolution was a new era in human evolution – a step forward and away from feudalism and capitalism.

DPRK: Ground-Preparing Ceremony – 10,000 Socialist Flats to be Built in Hwasong Area! (17.2.2025)

All the builders broke into enthusiastic cheers with boundless reverence for Kim Jong Un, who is warmly inspiring them with great trust so that they can perform eye-opening feats once again in this year’s struggle for successfully concluding the tasks decided by the Party congress.

The venue of the ground-breaking ceremony was filled with the ardent enthusiasm of the builders of the capital city to uphold the cherished desire of our Party with miracles of creation, bearing deep in mind Kim Jong Un’s instructions that the Hwasong area is the epitome that intensively shows the spirit peculiar to the Workers’ Party of Korea that wages the revolution uninterruptedly and the onward march of our state that advances towards the future with a great ambition.

Kim Jong Un pressed the button for blasting to herald the start of the project for building 10 000 flats at the fourth stage in the Hwasong area.

China: Jurassic Fossil Discovery Sheds New light on Origin of Birds! (13.2.2025)

13/02/2025 Adrian (釋大道)

While it is well established that birds evolved from dinosaurs, the timing of this transition has long been debated. Some studies suggest that birds’ earliest diversification occurred during the Jurassic Period, though the fossil record has been sparse and fragmentary. Archaeopteryx, often considered the earliest known and arguably the only Jurassic bird, has long been the focus of this debate.

Although Archaeopteryx possessed feathered wings, it closely resembled non-avian dinosaurs, particularly due to its long, reptilian tail, which is in stark contrast to the short tails seen in modern birds. Recent research has even questioned whether Archaeopteryx should be classified as a bird, suggesting instead that it may be more closely related to the deinonychosaurs, a group of theropod dinosaurs.

China: Chang’e 6 Samples Shed Light on Lunar Magnetism! (23.12.2024)

They discovered that the Moon’s magnetic field may have experienced a rebound around 2.8 billion years ago, suggesting that the Moon’s generator may have been reinforced after an early sharp decline.

“The reason for this rebound could be a change in the primary energy source of the generator or a restrengthening of the initial driving mechanism,” Cai said.

“The data fill in a billion-year gap in the evolution of the lunar paleomagnetic record and provide the first paleomagnetic measurements from the lunar far side,” a reviewer for the journal Nature said. “The authors are to be congratulated on a historic study that provides a major advance in our understanding of lunar magnetism.”

The evolution history of the Moon’s magnetic field is markedly different from that of the Earth’s, the research team said.

China: Scientists Uncover Mysteries of Early Life Evolution on Earth! (20.12.2024)

20/12/2024 Adrian (釋大道)

The research has revealed that life’s evolution from simple to complex in about 1.5 billion years is not a linear process but a pattern of alternating long-term stagnation and relatively rapid growth.

The results also highlighted the profound effects of sudden environmental shifts, such as temperature and oxygen level, on early complex life, offering crucial implications for studying alien life in harsh conditions and evaluating the future habitability of Earth, said Tang Qing from Nanjing University, the first author and one of the corresponding authors of the paper.

A peer-reviewer praised the work as “a long overdue paper to examine the fossil record of the Proterozoic,” which will make for “a plethora of papers following [its] publication.”

China: Landmark “Transitional” Human Evolution Fossil Found! (8.12.2024)

The foot metatarsal bone found this year is the only one unearthed in China, and it could provide important information in studying both how the ancients walked and their height, Wu said.

In addition, the finely crafted stone tools found at Hualongdong show the relatively high technical level of the Hualongdong cave people 300,000 years ago. They were very intelligent, and had evolved towards the stage of Homo sapiens, according to Wu.

“The Hualongdong humans were the earliest ancient humans in East Asia who exhibited the most characteristics of Homo sapiens, and were at a key turning point in the evolution from ancient humans towards modern humans. The Hualongdong site will provide a wealth of information on how modern humans evolved,” said Liu Wu, another researcher with the IVPP, who has conducted excavations at the site for more than a decade.
