I am a Russian repatriate, blogger, and intelligence researcher. My primary blog is at The Unz Review [feed], where I write about Russia, geopolitics, HBD, IQ, and futurism.
Start here if you’re new to my work. I also maintain pages with an archive of my best posts, travel notes (inc. guides to Moscow, SPB), and reviews of books, films, and video games.
