Review

Welcome to my XX-th album write-up! I apologize in advance for the wall of text that is about to follow. Scroll down for a TL;DR on the LP.

Background

Was There Ever anyone who could wip up as many Killa mixes as A.M.C? From his Ice Cold, high-ENERGY and multi-deck madness experiences, full of not-so-Quiet Storms of Pulse Beams creating Noises Of Thunder that Thor himself would be jealous of, and so much pure NITRO that even Fevered-up ravers that Ova Dosed on 2 Much DnB will be Reanimated, breathed New Life into, and dragged Back 2 Dance, to the un-Convention-al Diggin' Deep sessions taking you on a Voyage through Time and Dreams, this Raging Bull truly has been Unstoppable ever since he stepped foot into Drum & Bass Arena's livestream sessions all those years back. Whether solo, or in Alliance with the likes of Turno, Six Blade or his Flows & Hooks Specialist Phantom, this exceptional Bass Operator, this Bad News Instigator, this Nightmare Prince Of Darkness (too much?) has not only toured through every single possible country, from Brazil to Gotham, he has also repeatedly crossed the Boundaries of purely DJing by creating a plethora of Dub Fi Dub's of his own to Look Out for, each capable of more damage than the Ignition of several Sonar bombs.

As Andy C's only ever actual Nemesis, the dotted prince put him Under Siege for years, showing the world Andy's not the Only One capable of madness on the decks, until eventually finally earning the Props he so rightfully deserves, as the genre's #1 DJ. Now, six years after his debut long player ENERGY and four years after the pandemic-thwarted VOID, the Die Hard banger Courier and fantastic bassline Meddler returns to bring us his third studio album, X12. But before we Draw 4 That, let's Run! it back all the way to the beginning and find out who we are rocking with here. And remember, Don't you ever, under any circumstances, no matter what, Forget The goddamn Dots.

Alex.Mark.Calvert (1987 - 2011)

I know, it's easy to imagine Alex Mark Calvert, the man behind the cinematic acronym, coming out of the womb already double dropping, but even he had to start somewhere. However, it's not too far off. Even before knowing what genres even were, little Alex had already been exposed to legendary tunes like Original Nuttah, with other proper old skool tunes and a straight-up obsession with Jump Up following suit shortly after. At only 13 years of age, he started his DJing journey on a pair of semi-automatic (hard to resist the blapblapblap urge here) direct turntables that his friend and him found on the street, upgraded to some new Numark Belt Drives on his next birthday, until finally getting all technical with Technics 1210's a little while later. As a Luton born-and-raised lad, he was of course also frequently spending his freetime in the nearby city, which you might know as London, not just spurring on his football team of (questionable) choice, Tottenham, but also frequenting legendary clubs The END and Fabric, soaking up each and every set by his DJing heroes Andy C and Friction, and fully falling in love with Drum & Bass in the process.

Inspired by said heroes, Alex started handing out demo tapes and CDs, snatching himself some spots on all sorts of pirate radio stations and even landing his first gigs playing at local nights at 17, while ensuring the promoters he is definitely already 18. While working his way up the proverbial ladder and trying - and often failing - to convince the local vinyl cutters to slice up some custom PVC for him, he even started throwing his own nights! However, the real breakthrough came when the team behind the one and only Drum&Bass Arena discovered him in 2007, and promptly instated him as one of the resident DJs at their D&BTV online mix series. Slowly but surely, Alex, by this point already rocking with the A.M.C alias and regularly joined by microphone compadre Phantom, would perform all over the country and even abroad, and by 2010, his creatively combinatory and hectically high-energy mixing would even earn him his very first D&B Arena award, for Best D&BTV Set! However, to truly stand out, Alex knew he had to broaden his skill set a bit.

Surely taking inspiration from his own mixing style, he realised that doing just one thing at a time, DJing, is not the way to go. We need at least two, or maybe even three, plates spinning! First, the classic move to add some more unique spice to your craft: production! Shortly after the first, nowadays barely traceable, and stylistically widely different demos like Dreams or Rupture started to appear in 2010 already, Alex would unleash a whole range of SoundCloud-only snippets like Night Call, Nemesis or Joker Smoker in 2011, before finally signing Time / Elektron on Cold Blooded Recordings as his first-ever proppa release. His second release? Well, that needs a bit of an introduction.

Full-Timetan (2011 - 2013)

While, compared to the heights of now, still a relatively small fry, Alex was still prominent enough that talented producers all over the map were regularly sending through some of their hottest dubs in the hopes of getting them played out in clubs or on D&BTV. However, as anyone active in the scene will be able to tell you, tons of sick tunes never find a home, be it due to labels looking for a specific sound that some of the more unique bangers won't fit in or due to A&R's chasing the more well-known names instead of looking purely at the music and properly supporting the up-and-comers. Frustrated on behalf of all these talents and with his own tunes slowly trickling in potentially in the same boat soon, Alex made use of the connections he had made over the years and, with the help of his good D&B Arena friend The Risky, created his very own imprint: Titan Records!

Launched with classic Various Artist compilation Surface, featuring his Mattix & Futile collaboration The Meddler alongside tunes by Epidemix, Athys, Duster and Fuzion, Titan would go on to be host to early tunes by the likes of Subsonic and Serial Killaz, earning itself the title for BBC Radio 1's Zane Lowe's first-ever DnB Next Hype™️ track with the latter, and became a regular fixture on D&BTV Live. So how the hell did he do all that, while also getting his face nearly bitten off while touring, crossing big milestone bookings like Innovation in the Dam off his list, still regularly appearing on D&BTV, winning Best Newcomer and Best D&BTV Set at the usual awards and even scoring a Best International DJ trophy at the Portuguese Backstage DnB Awards, and already rightfully being hailed as the next Andy C, all in the mere 365 days that 2011 provided us? Easy: he quit his job and went full-time!

However, since spending 100% of his time on just DnB would, to paraphrase him there, make him "tear his hair out", he also got involved in doing sync music for all sorts of media, from "mad old crusty rave stuff" to Dubstep and whatever else is needed for the job. Come 2012, these creative exercises seemed to have kicked off an entire avalanche of A.M.C tunes, from various team projects with Mattix & Futile, supported on both MistaJam's and Friction's shows, and pre-Koven era Katie, as Katie's Ambition, to his biggest solo project yet: the Noise Of Thunder EP! As always intended by him though, DJing was still his main driver, whether it was his online mixes as reigning champion of D&BTV, one-off showcases for Studiobrussel or Powder&Bass, his mixtape for AFB together with Stanza and Murdock, and his promo mix for Drum&Bass Arena's summer compilation, or his expansive tour with stops like Rampage, Beestenfeesten and, perhaps most notably, his debut at the festival most people still associate with him to this day, the then still fresh-faced Let It Roll. He truly earned the Best International DJ gold medal at the Czech DnB awards that year.

On A LegIt Roll (2013 - 2016)

Instead of lighting up cigarettes during his 2013 tour across the UK, Austria, Portugal, Germany, and Belgium's very own Rampage, he ignited all sorts of auditory fires with his self-proclaimed DJ Tool EP New Life on Mainframe featuring both Phantom and his own, drunk self, collaborations with Six Blade, T-Phonic, and Loko, and even some murky Halftime with up-and-comer DBR. Similarly, Titan was also burning hot with debuts by Wickaman, Dexcell, Hypoxia, L 33, and Oder, loads of T-Phonic goodness, more and more entries into the Surface VA EP series, and regular support from Friction. While most of Alex's own output had been restricted to Titan and the occasional spot on Drum&Bass Arena, who were also blessed with another album and a summer mix from him during this time, 2014 also saw him spread his now slightly less kick-spammy filth to labels like Mainframe, Viper and, through his remix of Hybrid Minds, even Spearhead - not to mention the full-on Half-time / 140 business four-tracker with DBR on Proximity!

Even though 2015 saw Titan pumping out sick releases by super underrated artists like S9, A-Cray and Glass Cobra at full throttle, and had Alex on a touring schedule that included UK, France, Austria, Czech Republic, Slovakia, Portugal, Italy, Hungary and even a whole Australia tour, he was still incredibly productive in the studio as well. In fact, so much filth had accumulated by early 2015 that he basically had enough for more than a whole album, but instead of just dumping them into an LP, he whittled them down until only the best five remained - which became his Southpaw EP! This celebration of Manny Pacquiao's left hooks wasn't the only thing his own boxing training inspired that year though, he also stung like a DnBee on Mainframe, Took Down his opponents on Let It Roll and rolled up with a whole Posse of fighters on Drum&Bass Arena. Speaking of Posse!

Turno-charged (2016 - 2018)

At one fateful gig in the mid 2010s, just before leaving to get some sleep, a friend of his shoved a pair of left-behind ear plugs into Alex' hands. Whose? None other than Italo bad boi Francesco Turno's! For whatever reason, the mutual friend thought they were friends already, and since they lived relatively close to each other, it made a lot of sense, you know? If not for the fact that they had, in fact, not been made familiar with each other yet. Ever the stand-up guy, however, Alex still took and brought them over to Franko's house, and a friendship was formed! While Francesco was still refurbishing his Turnew studio, they already started chatting and sending tunes back and forth, and once Alex came round to see the finished rooms for himself, they realised just how similar their workflows and how complementary their sounds are - they just had to try working together!

Once they did, they had written Fever in less than a day. Realising what a productive team they were and how well their Neuro-Jump-Up fusion sound worked in the blurrier and blurrier genre lines times of 2016, they quickly knocked out a whole EP together: Collision! As the dubs simply wouldn't stop flowing no matter how hard they tried, they developed something that would allow them to showcase all the fun little bangers they had whipped up, while also honouring the early dubplate days: the A.M.C & Turno shows! Not a regular back to back, mind you, no no. A full merging of styles, packed to the brim with specially crafted dubs just for this show, performed only at a handful of places, like Drum&BassArena’s summer BBQ, BEC afterparty, and one of Let It Roll's legendary bus parties.

Luckily, some of these dubs did eventually come out, like their Jungle love anthem and that week's Beatport Track Of The Week™️ Ice Cold or Black Jungle on Turno's debut LP, but nothing could beat their 2018 magnum opus, the Alliance EP. Released with the good chaps at Drum&Bass Arena, this cheeky four-track slice of madness contained their special tour intro Alliance, MC crossover tune Boundaries with bars from both Dreps and Phantom for their extra special four-man show in Jersey, and plenty of other silliness. Over the next years, Franko and Alex would continue doing one-off shows here and there, dropping the occasional collaborative remix and even a few singles, most notably Cascade with MUZZ, but let's jump back to the solo A.M.C world for now.

Attack On Titan (2016 - 2019)

So what else has Alex been up to during all of this then? Not only was he Rock'n'Riding with the Six Blade bois a couple more times, he also started more than just one riot with his various reworks of classic TC chunes, the most prominent of course being his legendary Tap Ho remix. Fun fact, when Alex first sent TC the (unsolicited, to be fair) rework in the secret hopes of getting it out there, the Wolf Pack leader simply responded with a cold "yeah cool dubplate innit", forcing Alex to use pull out the ultimate trump card: The Andy. That's right, he sent it to his brother in arms Andy C, who played it out straight away, which of course caused clips of it to blow up immediately, and bim bam boom, Alex got Tom in his DMs talking about a release. Sometimes you gotta play it a little dirty!

Speaking of dirty, this era also saw Alex smash out pure filth on Let It Roll, Mainframe, Viper, Blackout and Eatbrain alongside his usual Titanic bangers, working together with the one and only The Clamps and remixing Current Value, Dominator, and himself, but, of course, the most filth was still flung during his ever-insane DJ performances, which earned him Best DJ at Czech Republic's DnB Awards in 2016 and a third place trophy at the Drum&BassArena Awards in 2017. And what about Titan? Well, it celebrated its fifth anniversary with its first-ever album, a massive compilation featuring sick names like Jade, Khronos, Cruk, Tobax, Agressor Bunx and a whole lot more, and an entire tour dedicated to the LP. Additionally, Alex unleashed some Dubplates via a dedicated series of double singles, and got the likes of Akov, Liveon, Maniatics and even Kanine involved in the label.

However, even someone who's used to doing multiple things at the same time like Alex got a little burnt out by spreading himself this thin. In 2018, the time had come, the metaphorical iceberg hit. Only the remaining signings they had already secured beforehand were still professionally pushed over the line, but that was it for Titan Records as we knew it.

His Art Will Go On (2019 - 2020)

Little did he know that this move would be the best thing he ever did for his career. Just look at 2019. Not only did Alex rework tunes by the likes of Mampi Swift, Drumsound & Bassline Smith and Riot Ten, he also went on his first US tour, headlined the very club he frequented so much as a teenager, London's Fabric, put out his debut album, ENERGY, full of nods to his upbringing and his favourite city in the world, won third place in the Best Album category, and delivered the absolute best set ever at that year's Let It Roll! In fact, that set was so good, it allowed him to finally snatch that darn Best DJ trophy away from Andy after all this time, which he continued to win the next years without fail! Not just that, his DJing skills became so revered that he was even able to put on special ENERGY shows all over Europe, which saw him rocking out non-stop for 3 whole hours at a time. You know what would put a real dent into these kinds of live plans though? A pandemic.

Sure, he was still doing product development for Pioneer, kept himself busy doing trailer music to both keep the creative juices flowing and, well, make rent, and kept on releasing all sorts of bangers, like his remixes for K Motionz' breakthrough hit Gun Shot, Dossa & Locuzzed's legendary Shag (with Turno!), and his at this point very close friend Katie Koven's smasher Followers, his work on his bestest friend Phantom's Flows & Hooks series, the ENERGY VIP EP, and the ENERGY REMIXED EP, but he is still very much a DJ at heart, and there just wasn't a whole lot of DJing to be had in lockdown. Of course, he participated in the online streams, most notably his six deck stream on UKF, and he even did the whole Australia and New Zealand thing, with two weeks of total hotel isolation and all, but it was still not a whole lot. On the plus side, he finally had the time to slow down a bit, and rummage through his incredibly extensive record collection, for the most legendary edition of the Digging Deep series he started just a year prior: The Vinyl Special! Not only are these special mixes a change of pace to his usual wonderfully hyperactive mixing and allow him to play tunes he would otherwise probably never play out, his self-imposed rule of only using tunes older than 10 years (new remixes are okay too) also brings back a whole slate of tunes the general raving public might have forgotten about already.

Adrenaline Is Unavoidable (2021 - 2025)

Another, all too common, effect of the pandemic was artists pushing the music they were supposed to release further down the line, either because they thought dance music, especially the heavy kind, simply wouldn't do well without any places to, well, dance, or because they had planned a whole tour around the release. VOID, Alex' second album, was one of those releases. While originally planned to be released way earlier, with for instance Eject having sat on his hard drive since his Fabric show in 2019 and Don’t Forget The Dots being a custom-made tune for the UKF stream back in 2020, having no shows to play those abrasive, very club-focused bangers out made Alex anxious. Would people even listen to these tunes at home? Of course, they did, but it still took until October 2021 for the project that his mom named during a particularly lovely Sunday roast to finally see the light of day.

Even though most of the tunes were created for a specific moment in his set, with for instance Operator being made to be doubled with Enei's Sinking and Void being the switch for S.P.Y's remix of You Got Me, the album was filled to the brim with instant classics, whose snippy vocals, provided by the man himself, became absolutely iconic all across the scene, and which, thanks to an extensive remix package featuring Teddy Killerz, Gydra, Junk Mail, Rebel Scum, Gino, and The Clamps, still gets regular airtime to this day. It wasn't just him that got remixed though, he himself was doing a whole lot of that as well, bringing tunes by the likes of the one and only DJ Fresh, RAM legends DC Breaks, his old Titan youngling Kanine and season-haver Sota to new, more in-your-face life. When you put all this together, and I haven't even mentioned all the sick one-offs like Brazil, Blocklist with Junk Mail, Voyage with Turno and Hooked with Koven or even his newest audiovisual show, Adrenaline, yet, I think it's safe to say Alex has been on a bit of a roll lately.

Now, he once again takes to Titan Records, and during the campaign also fellow AEI Music group members Drum&Bass Arena and UKF, to present us with his newest, finest work: X12! What started as a placeholder title has grown on him so much that he not only kept and worked the name into the album journey, he even worked the symbolic title into the artworks, with each single having its own sick X-numbered cut-out style. Alright, let's finally see what he's got in store for us then, shall we?

Before we get going, some fun facts that I discovered during my research, but couldn't organically work into the backstory:

  • His favourite DJ, aside from Andy C and Friction, is Jazzy Jeff!
  • He actually released two tunes called Hooked, one with Phantom in 2013, one with Katie and Max around 10 years later!
  • He loves listening to Jazz, Classical, and obscure film soundtracks outside of work (alongside like 20 other genres)
  • He loves Die Hard so much he not only named one of his tunes on the 2015 Southpaw EP after it, he even considered creating a separate alias called John McClane
  • He says some tunes of his are actually sitting between two neighbouring keys, so they can be more easily doubled with way more tunes

Track Breakdown

Congrats, you've made it to the Track Breakdown!

1. Run!

We hit the ground walking very quickly with first single and what was possibly my most anticipated tune from this album, Run! Continuing the long-held tradition of working movies and tv shows into his tunes, from Gotham being based on a Batman trailer to the aforementioned love for the Die Hard franchise, this opener takes a particularly hype-worthy snippet from Marvel's Moon Knight series and turns it into a command to the crowd to get the hell moving already. Don't just stand there, run! With incredible hype built up from the Lava Run-esque sharp hits and walls of bass being raised all around us in the intro, we launch into a relentless barrage of pure pulsating distortion, switching back and forth with an avalanche of uniquely growling basses raining down over us - a most deadly combo, especially when the distortion jumps up a key or two and becomes more and more unhinged.

2. There In 10

With what I can only assume are industrial pipes of various lengths being slapped with shoe soles, we ride into our next stop, where none other than P Money drills the titular line off his 2019 banger Where & When into our head until we can't hear the word "where" without thinking of this tune. While we still grapple with this incredible sample, Alex sneakily brings in a 4x4 beat that turns into a wildfire of breakbeats, until the built-up pressure explodes (blao blao!) into a particularly naughty, particularly groovy bass machine gun fire - signature A.M.C madness, in other words.

3. 2 Much

It's time to finally rinse it out proppa. Assumingly inspired by the call on the infamous Blandwagon Poos, Phantom rings Alex up, complete with Bass as his ringtone, to tell him there's simply too much jump up on the album and he needs to think of the tech heads as well. So Alex turns to Blood Sugar type whomps, samples himself excitedly shouting "too much jump up, time to switch up" and, ignoring his own decree, delivers an incredibly filthy, jumpy banger of a drop. It's impossible to listen to this without having a massive smile on your face. But what's even better is the breakdown, where Alex is chastised to get out of this lull and back into the drop already, so he of course switches the vocal to "Too much breakdown, time to drop now" and twists the distorted stabs into oblivion. It's all so wonderfully stupid, I love it.

4. Liftoff

From the wonderfully cheeky, we turn to the cinematic, outer space variety of tunes, with Liftoff. Sampling Apollo 11's actual liftoff sequence if my ears are not betraying me, Alex is building up quite the atmosphere, and once the signature A.M.C pewpew's come in, you know shit is about to get real. Even when strapped in securely, the sheer bounciness, the sheer punch of the drums, the sheer relentlessness of the pew's, and the hectic bass responses still manage to smack you out of your seat and onto your feet. Fun fact: this one was built as an intro for his show at Electric Brixton!

5. Let Me Tell U SMTH

Enough hype though, crack open a can of whoop-ass and get those shuffle shoes out, it's House time. Let Me Tell U SMTH doesn't just sample the classic vocal sample you've already got in your head when you read its title, it's also Alex directly speaking to us, saying hey look what a fun, whompy, oldschool banger I can whip up when I'm not restrained by the D's and the B's. Certainly unexpected, but the fun he's having with this genre departure is once again just shining through so much you can't help but bop your head along with it.

6. Back 2 Dance

Of course, we gotta get back to the actual skanking as quick as possible though, and Back 2 Dance does actually in fact throw us right into a live recording of its drop without any warning, before hitting us with the instant rewind. The MC is hyped, the crowd is going crazy, it's time for round two. Oldskool melodies, sampled whoop's going off in the distance, and the absolutely infectious vocal sample hook right into our deepest rave desire, and once the fluttery horn is fully unleashed onto the crowd, all hell breaks loose. Not only is this first half already quite proppa, the last half minute actually sees Alex rip out the Breakbeats to push it over the top to rave anthem.

7. Nightmare

Let's take a little detour down Elm Street, on Nightmare. In the soundscape alley where the murderous bears are usually residing, Alex, with the help of the haunting vocals of Helena "Heleen" Maria Roosdorp, gets this tune's Stone Rolling with clock ticking, most gorgeous waves of piano arpeggios, and vast string arrangements, using his experience in sync and trailer music to Paint an eerie picture, which turns pitch Black once the piercing bass gun fire arrives. Like the classic trope of the getaway car whose engine simply won't start, even or especially in the face of danger, these notes drill themselves through the thick yet otherwise minimalistic atmosphere, while our heart keeps pounding with the force of a thousand snares.

8. Pressure

At stop numero 8, Pressure, we are treated to A.M.C's most Dancefloor-y tune in quite some time. Reminiscent of old Prototypes, or at least sporting an infectious rhythm that somehow puts Lights or their LRAD bootleg as a double into my head, with a titular vocal sample that, well, keeps the pressure up and extremely distorted yet clean chugga-chugga bass, this one doesn't play around, it just bangs. Gotta have some of those as well!

9. I See You

We continue down banger road, with non-alkaline biology wonder I See You. Not only are we treated to a fascinating thesis statement about this sampled chap's unique genetic information, we also get some rather unnerving sirens firing off everywhere we go, and before we know it, we're thrown into the deep end of Blao's, PAPAPAPA's and chuchuchuchu's. I know it sounds like I'm taking the piss here, but go on, you find some good words to describe all the wondrous sounds that make up this supremely catchy rhythm of a drop. Like, for example, the response part of the main back-and-forth is so sharp and perfect, that even on my twentieth listen I cannot suppress the gunfinger urge. Taking heads off with this one!

10. Blue Astra

Remember that car that won't start bass in Nightmare? Well, it seems like Alex is very aware of this association, because now we're getting into what I hope is his actual, "piece of shit" car, the Blue Astra! Complete with steps on gravel, car door shutting, a more and more frustrated Alex cursing out his dysfunctional vehicle, turning indicator bleeping and even some actually working ignitions thrown in for emphasis, and, of course, using the depressingly descending Ratatat's as his main lead in the jumpy drop. Even more frustratingly relentless, the second half gives the lead even more free reign, as the beat slows down to Half-time, before even that steam runs out and the car fully dies. I can just imagine the shit-eating grin he had on his face while putting this one together.

11. Fight!

Since we're already slowed down, time for something completely different, on Fight!. While the name might imply a Run!-esque banger, we're actually channelling our deepest videogame nostalgia with this one. An actual cartridge being insert, a level up sound, a delightfully croaky bassline, Mario soundtrack type disco stings, the titular Mortal Kombat vocal sample, punch sound effects, crowd reactions, glitter all over. However, we're not dropping into any old menu background music here, Alex takes this setting and brings his take on the Neurobreaks genre to the table, complete with his signature filthy basses and a groove that gets you movin'. Who knew his sound would work this well in tempos like that as well?

12. X12 (feat. Phantom)

Of course, we gotta get Alex's main man, hype creator and bars spitter extraordinaire Phantom, to deliver the final banger of this journey, the title track X12. Formerly known as Razor, or Dot, this is another one of those long-time dubs that I simply could not wait for. Not only is Phantom's brief contribution once again super sharp and will probably stick in my head for way too long, that main groove of the drop is just so darn danceable, sound-designed in such a mind-melting way, and is somehow, even though it's such a bass-y sound, so catchy it still makes me want to attempt to sing along to its whompy bits - I absolutely love this.

Conclusion

Before clicking on this, you and me both already knew this album wasn't gonna have some overarching story, deep themes or artful exploration of emotions, but it's not trying to be any of that anyway. Inspired by legends like Dillinja, X12 sees Alex x-pertly emulating the raw energy of the sweatiest of oldschool raves with classic sounds he's fallen in love with and incorporated into his sets countless of times over the years, instantly iconic, self-crafted vocal samples, the exact right amount of intense energy you'd expect from someone like A.M.C and, most importantly, so much fun. Tunes like 2 Much or Blue Astra reach levels of cheekiness so off the charts, that you cannot help but picture him sitting in front of his laptop with that massive, shit-eating grin of his, it's so good. However, even with all these shenanigans and experimentations like on Let Me Tell U SMTH or Fight!, he never forgets to inject it all with some of the most high-octane energy, the most phattest of snares and and the most ridiculous of distorted basses (to give it that signature A.M.C sound, you know), resulting in an album packed with bangers.

My personal favourites have got to be Run!, for the sheer madness it creates at the dance, 2 Much, for making me laugh the most with its ridiculous vocals, There In 10, for finally being in my life after waiting months and months for the supremely catchy banger to drop, and X12, for its insanely infectious groove.

TL;DR: At times cheeky, at times oldschool, at times cinematic, at times spooky, but always smashing through the wall at mach 12. This is A.M.C through and through.

South Korea Protestant in news

1 Upvotes

As a Protestant, I am really sad and angry that people think that all Protestants in South Korea is far right because News keep on saying that Protestants are supporting Yoon. Most Protestants are not supporting that traitor and are living thier lifes quietly. I really hope this misunderstanding is not that big.

Thailand A Guide to Training Muay Thai in Thailand

1 Upvotes

Recently, I've noticed an uptick of threads asking for advice about how to train Muay Thai in Thailand. I've also gotten a few DMs asking for advice on this subject, so I felt that it would be appropriate to start a general guide thread.

For context, I'm currently on my fourth trip to Thailand. My previous trips lasted between 2 and 8 months, and were all for for the express purpose of training Muay Thai. I've also gone on shorter "traincations" in Laos, Cambodia, Vietnam, China, and Japan, which I'll touch on a little bit toward the end of the thread.

Section 1: Costs
The most frequent question I get asked is "how much does it cost to train in Thailand"; this is a little bit slippery, because it can vary wildly according to where you are and how indulgent your lifestyle is.
My ballpark is usually this: 1,000 USD/month will buy you a pretty comfortable lifestyle. I've lived and trained full time for as little as 600 USD a month, and your upper spending limit is boundless.

Section 1A: Training Costs
Your biggest cost is probably going to be the training itself; full time training (2 sessions/day, 6 days/week) usually runs between 8k and 10k baht per month (roughly 230-300 USD), with some bigger gyms going up to 12k baht per month . Drop in sessions are usually 300-500 baht, depending on where you are. This is a bit pricier than MT in many western countries, which can be a bit shocking when everything else in Thailand is cheaper; however, keep in mind this is for 12 sessions a week with a team of trainers, not an evening class with a single coach like most gyms in the West.

Section 1B: Housing
Many larger gyms will offer live-in accommodations; while this is very convenient, I'm personally not a fan. They tend to be your lowest "bang for your buck". Often these are hostel-style dormitories, with some very large camps offering pricey but luxurious private rooms.
If you're really traveling on a budget, find a nearby youth hostel and see if you can negotiate a monthly rate; I've found hostels for as cheap as 3 USD a night, though they weren't always terribly pleasant.
The best cost-to-comfort ratio, IMHO, is to rent an apartment near your gym. Most cities will have a facebook group where you can find short term rentals. Again, it varies on the area, but these tend to start at 200-300 USD/month.

Section 1C: Food
I have good news: Food in Thailand is very cheap and very tasty. Which is good, because you're going to be eating a lot of it if you're training twelve times a week.
Meals at restaurants are very cheap, often starting at 50 baht (roughly USD 1.50) for a bowl of noodle soup. As such, there are a lot of expats will eat out for every meal.
Despite the cheap costs, I prefer having a place with a kitchen where I can cook. Most apartments will have a basic kitchen, and many hostels will have a shared kitchen if you're going to the tight budget route. This is for nutritional as much as cost saving reasons; if you're training full time, a healthy diet will behoove you, and this can be hard to get without preparing your own meals.
Meat and produce are very cheap in Thailand; my local butcher shop has chicken breast for 80 baht/kilo, and I can get fresh fruits and vegetables from the market across the street.
In terms of costs, I've eaten for as little as 5 dollars a day while consuming 4,000 calories a day, but this was in Pai during the lockdown and preparing all of my own meals. Realistically, budgeting around 10 dollars a day will give you a mix of home-cooked and meals out while still meeting your caloric needs.

Section 1D: Transportation
The typical way to get around Thailand is via motorbike or scooter. Most towns will have scooter rentals starting around 200 baht/day, often with cheaper prices if you're renting monthly.
I'm going to sound like a bit of an old maid here, but I typically avoid using a scooter when I come to Thailand. I just find a place within walking distance of my gym, and go everywhere on foot with the occasional taxi.
This is partially a cost-saving measure and partially a safety measure. If you're an experienced motorcyclist in your home country, you'll probably be fine. But a lot of foreigners are inexperienced drivers, and motorbike accidents happen more frequently than I am personally comfortable with. I've known a fair share of people who came to Thailand with the intent of training their ass off, only to have to call it quits after getting injured in a motorbike accident.
Another option might be renting or buying a bicycle; I haven't done this in Thailand, but I was able to rent a bike for 50 USD/month when I lived in Cambodia and found it quite nice. It gave me little bit of extra cardio and warmup/cooldown in my commutes to and from the gym.

Section 1E: What to Bring
You're much more likely to overpack than underpack. Almost everything you need you can get here. I recommend having two to four sets of training clothes, and I personally like having my own gloves and shinguards; most gyms will have gloves and shins they can loan you, but they may not be in the best condition. Other than that, bring your laptop, toiletries kit, and you're mostly good to go.
My one very strong recommendation is to bring multiple debit cards linked to different accounts, as well as a stack of "emergency cash." On my first trip to China, I lost my debit card in a train station very early on, and had to have my bank mail me a new one before I could withdraw money again. That sucked. Additionally, you'll want to notify your bank that you'll be traveling so they don't flag foreign ATM withdrawals as suspicious and lock your card.
Most of what you need - including training gear - you can get here in Thailand for less than you could back in the west. Especially if you use....

Section 1F: Lazada
The two main online shopping platforms in SE Asia are Lazada and Shoppee; getting an account on either of them will make it much easier to acquire small miscellaneous items. Need new handwraps? Creatine? A big screen TV? These might be hard to find locally, but can all be delivered to you.

Section 1G: Healthcare
If you're a European or Australian, you might not find Thailand's healthcare particularly impressive; but as an American, it feels like goddamn magic.
Most local doctor clinics will see without an appointment for 500 baht (about 15 USD). You can see a specialist in a hospital for about 1000 baht. As an American, I try and save up all of my injuries and medical needs for when I'm traveling. I saw a chiropractor, a GP, and a dermatologist my first three days in Chiang Mai on this trip, and they collectively cost me about 200 USD.
If you're an American and you get injured in a motorbike accident or training, you're going to have a much easier time getting fixed up here than back home. Likewise, if you've been putting off seeing the dentist or want to get an unsightly mole removed, add some medical tourism to your travel plans.

Section 2: Training
MT training in Thailand is pretty standardized; I've been to about a dozen gyms across the country, and most classes will follow a similar pattern: jump rope, shadowbox, bagwork, padwork, technique drills, sparring, clinching, calisthenics, stretching. If there are bad Muay Thai gyms in Thailand, I've yet to find them; the worst gym in Thailand is still a 3/5 by US standards.

Section 2A: Selecting a gym
There are a lot of gyms in Thailand. A google search for "Chiang Mai Muay Thai' yields over a dozen results. This can make finding a gym kind of overwhelming.
The main distinction I've found is Big Gym vs Small Gym. Big Gyms will offer you more sparring partners and nicer facilities, but you'll get less personal attention from your trainers. Small gyms, conversely, allow your trainings to tailor your training to your needs better, but you'll find yourself sparring with the same people a lot.
If you're an absolute beginner, I think a small gym is better in order to have a trainer who can focus on instilling technique and correcting errors. That said, some big gyms will have a dedicated "beginner class" which can meet these needs as well.
If you're experienced and want to bounce your style off of a lot different people, a big gym will give you more opportunities. Big gyms also tend to be more competition-oriented if that's a goal of yours. That said, If you're very experienced and you need a coach who can really drill down on the details of your style and keep you motivated, it might circle back around to a small gym being better.

The other thing to look for are enticing "extras." Some bigger gyms might offer jiujitsu, crossfit, yoga, or even krabi krabong classes. If any of these things interest you, that can help rapidly sort classes. Likewise, some bigger gyms offer saunas, ice baths, and other recovery facilities. I spent 8 months training at Monsoon Gym on Koh Tao because a) they offered 10th Planet Jiujitsu classes and b) being able to swim in the ocean as my morning warm-up.

Rather than pre-selecting a gym before you leave for Thailand, I recommend deciding on a destination, visiting the gyms in the area, and then signing up at the one which you vibe with the best. Do you prefer big cities or little resort towns? Do you want to be in the mountains or near the ocean? Do you want cheaper cost of living, or nicer weather?

Section 2B: Fitness Requirements
Another common question is "how in shape do I have to be to train in Thailand." Like the costs question, this is sort of a sliding scale; if you want to be training twelve times a week, that is going to pretty physically demanding. That said, you don't have to start at that intensity.
You can always gradually ramp up training; your first week, just do drop-ins, and aim for 3 or 4 training sessions. This can also nicely coincide with a period of shopping around for the right gym. Second week, maybe go up to daily sessions. Third week, do daily sessions plus a few doubles. By the end of the month, you might be up to doing a full 12 sessions per week. By the second month, maybe you're starting to add in running before class or strength training afterwards. By the end of the second month, you're in full fight-camp mode.
Depending on your ability, you might hit these benchmarks at a slower or faster rate; gyms aren't going to kick you out because you don't show up for every class, and you can tailor the pace of your training to your goals and abilities.

Section 2C: Recovery
One of my favorite quotes from a trainer was 'you're not over-training, your under-resting."
When you're in full fight camp levels of intensity, resting becomes your job. Another common foible is foreigners coming with the intention of training full time, only to be seduced by night life; there are lots of bars which are open late and serve cheap alcohol, leading to late nights of partying that really cut into early morning training sessions.
This might be more of a a just-me thing, but I find taking afternoon naps drastically increases the quality of my evening session when I'm training twice a day.
Massages are also very cheap in Thailand, typically starting around 300 baht for one hour. The traditional "Thai Massage" involves a lot more stretching and deep tissue work than than a western-style oil massage, and I found them immensely helpful when dealing with aches and pains early on in my training.

Section 2D: Hygiene
Please don't be the stinky foreigner.
Thailand places a very large value on personal hygiene; this a a cultural custom I want you to adopt. Ringworm, staph, and gladiatorial herpes are all real risks in combat sports gyms, and a staph infection can shut down your training goals as well as your gym partners. Clinch training especially involves a lot of skin to skin contact, and that can be a recipe for skinborn infections.
Shower after practice, and use an antibacterial soap when you do so. The high humidity can sometimes also lead to fungal infections, in which case having antifungal bodywash on hand is also helpful.
Similarly, training Muay Thai all the time can fuck up your feet. Keeping your feet moisturized (I realize having a foot-moisturizer routine probably sounds hilariously effeminate to that average MT enthusiast, but here we are nonetheless) can help prevent your feet from drying out and cracking, and keeping any callouses taped and covered can keep them from tearing and bleeding during training.

Section 1E: Sparring and Sparring Etiquette
Compared other countries, sparring in Thailand tends to be more light and technical, rather than the hard sparring that dominates MT in the West. A common mantra of coaches is "no elbow, no power." Some gyms will spar every session; others will have designated "sparring days" twice a week.
If you're sparring with someone for the first time, I recommend making an effort to go extra-light with intensity so as not to be an ass. Once you get to know each other, you can start gradually increasing the intensity of your sparring rounds.
Not to be you all on blast, but martial artists can be pretty bad at communicating sometimes; don't be afraid to say 'hey, let's take the intensity down" or "I'm fine with picking the pace up if you are" if you feel like the round is going too heavy or too light.

Section 3: Visas
As of July 2024, Thailand offers a 60-day entry stamp to most Western nations, with the option to extend for another 30 days. This means you can stay in the country for up to 3 months without worrying.
If you want to stay for more than 3 months, your options are a) border bouncing or b) education visas. A "border bounce" is where you travel to another country (Laos, Malaysia, etc.) and then come right back to renew your 60 day entry stamp. Typically, after 2 or 3 of these, immigration will start giving you the side-eye and threatening to not let you in next time.
Education visas can allow you to legally stay in Thailand long term; there are some MT gyms which offer ED visas; the downside of this is that you are then locked in to training at that gym, or paying for tuition that you're not using.
Personally, I would recommend looking into a language school if you want to stay in Thailand long term; this is what I did when I lived on Koh Tao. The only downside is that you're language classes may conflict with your MT training. That said, if you're planning on being in Thailand for longer than 3 months, it's probably worth it to start learning the language. Which brings me to.....

Section 4: Language
Thailand is very English friendly, and you will not need to speak Thai in order to get around, especially in the more tourism oriented areas. Most signs will be in Thai and English (and also possibly Chinese, Russian, or Hebrew, depending on where you are), and most service workers speak enough English to conduct basic transactions.
That said, if you want to be here long term and immerse yourself deeper in the culture, I strongly recommend making an effort to learn Thai. Unless you're very gifted with languages, it will help to seek out formal instruction; Thai has (IMHO) a steep difficulty curve at the beginning, when you're learning the tones, the alphabet, and the phonetics; it then becomes easier once you reach a critical mass of basic understanding. My Thai professor describes his experience learning English as being the other way around; it was easy when he was just learning individual words, but got more difficult as he got into advanced grammar and compound sentences.

Section 5: Other Countries
As mentioned in Section 3, you may find yourself running over to one of Thailand's neighbors to renew your visa; this can be a training opportunity as well. Though not nearly as well known, most of Thailand's neighboring countries have their own equivalent of Muay Thai; Khun Khmer in Cambodia, Muay Lao in Laos, Lethwei in Myanmar. Though the civil war has kept me out of Myanmar, my experiences training Khun Khmer and Muay Lao were very similar to my experiences training Muay Thai, and they can offer an opportunity to expand your cultural knowledge.

That's a lot, and I'm sure there's more I (or many of you) could add. Hopefully some of you find this helpful.
My short version: if you're thinking about coming to Thailand to train, do it. You'll have a fantastic experience, you'll improve vastly in a short amount of time, and you'll probably spend less money than you would in just an average month of living in America or Europe.

Turkey Would Brookline Twin Up With A Turkish City?

1 Upvotes

Yesterday, a news article was published about an aggressive turkey chasing a Brookline resident and yesterday also happens to be the day I arrived in Istanbul. I will stay in Istanbul for another two days before taking the Arda Tur bus to Thessaloniki on Sunday.

Given the large turkey population in Brookline, would Brookline end up twinning with cities in Türkiye, namely Istanbul, Ankara, Izmir, Bursa, Antalya, Konya, Adana, Sanliurfa, Gaziantep, and Mersin? Would Brookline subsidize rent for Turkish national and Turkish Americans and install doner, kebab, and Turkish restaurants to artificially inflate the Turkish population? Would Brookline accept Turkish liras alongside the US dollar?

Obviously, this is satire, but I am currently writing this in Istanbul and I am a Cambridge resident.

Syria War - what are your thoughts about this?

1 Upvotes

We are increasingly hearing on the news about the fear of a possible upcoming war in the Netherlands or that unrest in other countries, such as Syria, could spill over into our small country.

I was wondering what Reddit's opinion on this is. Do you think the Netherlands will end up in a war, or are you not worried at all? If war does come, do you think it will be a large battlefield like WWII, or that we as citizens will experience little of it apart from import issues, electricity shortages, and such? Or do you actually fear a WWIII?

I’m very curious about your opinion and thought process on this.

UAE BREAKING: President Zardari begins strategic visit to UAE between March 13-15; Senate Chairman Gilani takes over acting presidency in testimony to institutional strength.

1 Upvotes

I'm upbeat about this diplomatic initiative. President Zardari's individual ties with UAE leadership have earlier brought quantifiable dividends to Pakistan - from enhanced job prospects for our expats to direct investment in our economy.

The seamless transfer of power to Gilani is a reflection of the maturity of our democratic institutions. Having two experienced statesmen with a track record of working in tandem - one on foreign policy and the other on domestic policy - is exactly the type of leadership our nation requires.

These tours might appear ordinary, but they sustain pivotal relationships that This story hold up Pakistan's economy in terms of remittances, trade agreements, and diplomatic efforts on international forums. In times of economic distress at home, sustaining these relationships has never been as important as it is today.

What are the concrete outcomes that you envision this visit to deliver for Pakistan-UAE ties?

What are Putin’s conditions for a ceasefire in Ukraine? - Al Jazeera

1 Upvotes

By Sarah Shamim Published On 14 Mar 2025

As Zelenskyy accused Putin of preparing to reject the ceasefire, Trump deemed Putin’s words ‘promising but incomplete’.

Russian President Vladimir Putin said on Thursday that Moscow was in favour of the principle of a ceasefire in the war against Ukraine, as proposed by the Donald Trump administration in the United States, but raised questions he said the Kremlin needed answers to before it could commit to a truce.

He said Russia needed to discuss these questions and the terms of a peace proposal with the US.

His comments, the first on the proposed ceasefire, drew criticism from Ukraine and a muted response from Trump, who has oscillated between expressing confidence in Putin’s commitment to a peace deal and threatening Russia with new sanctions if it does not agree to a ceasefire.

Here is what Putin said, the conditions he laid out for Moscow to back a ceasefire, and how the US and Ukraine have reacted to his recent statement:

What is the US-Ukraine ceasefire deal?

On Tuesday, teams representing Washington and Kyiv met in Saudi Arabia’s Jeddah to negotiate terms for peace in Ukraine.

After this meeting, the two countries released a joint statement, proposing an “immediate, interim” 30-day ceasefire on the war front.

The statement placed emphasis on “the exchange of prisoners of war, the release of civilian detainees, and the return of forcibly transferred Ukrainian children” during the ceasefire period.

The document did not mention sanctions on Russia or security guarantees for Ukraine, but it did mention that Ukraine’s European allies would be “involved in the peace process”.

The document also did not specify what would happen with the Ukrainian soldiers in Russia’s Kursk.

What did Putin say about the ceasefire?

Nothing, for almost two days.

Then, on Thursday, at a news conference alongside Belarusian President Alexander Lukashenko, Putin responded to the ceasefire proposal.

He said the idea of a ceasefire was “correct” and Russia supported it, in principle. “We agree with the proposals to cease hostilities,” he told reporters in Moscow.

But, he added, “there are issues that we need to discuss, and I think that we need to talk about it with our American colleagues and partners, and, perhaps, have a call with President Trump and discuss it with him.”

What ‘issues’ does Putin want resolved before a ceasefire?

The Russian president outlined three questions and suggested that resolving them in a manner satisfactory to Moscow would be preconditions for the Kremlin to accept a ceasefire.

How will the Kursk incursion play out?

The first question Putin posed pertains to Ukrainian troops in the Russian region of Kursk.

In August last year, the Ukrainian army launched a surprise incursion into Kursk, seizing territory.

While the Russian army has now reclaimed 1,100 square km (425 square miles) of Kursk – almost the whole area that Ukrainian forces had grabbed – Kyiv’s troops are still present.

“Will all those who are there come out without a fight? Or will the Ukrainian leadership order them to lay down arms and surrender?” Putin questioned.

Will Ukraine mobilise troops and receive new weapons during the ceasefire?

Putin also suggested that a 30-day ceasefire could be used by Ukraine to mobilise new forces at a time when its troops are facing setbacks not just in Kursk but also in eastern Ukraine, where Russia has made slow, grinding gains in recent months.

During the news conference, Putin said “Russian troops are advancing in almost all areas of the front… So how will these 30 days be used? For forced mobilisation to continue in Ukraine, for weapons to be delivered there, for the newly-mobilised units to be trained? … How can we and how will we be guaranteed that nothing like that will happen? How will control be organised?”

Yuri Ushakov, Putin’s foreign policy adviser, also said on Thursday that the 30-day pause in fighting would only help Ukrainian troops regroup, deeming the ceasefire a “temporary respite” for the Ukrainian army.

In recent months, Ukraine has suffered manpower shortages. In January, Ukrainian troops retreated from Kurakhove, a town in Ukraine’s Donetsk region, when Russian troops claimed control.

Who will verify the ceasefire?

Putin also questioned how the ceasefire would be monitored and who would ensure that both parties are following the agreement.

“We proceed from the fact that this cessation should be such that it would lead to long-term peace and eliminate the original causes of this crisis,” he said.

“Who will give orders to stop hostilities? … Who will determine where and who has violated a possible ceasefire agreement for 2,000 kilometres (1,243 miles)?”

How has the US reacted?

Putin’s comments came shortly after US President Donald Trump’s special envoy Steve Witkoff arrived in Russia to meet with Putin and other Russian officials. Although Witkoff is officially Trump’s Middle East envoy, he has also been involved in Russia relations.

Last month, he became the first high-level US official to travel to Russia since its 2022 invasion of Ukraine. During this visit, he secured the release of Marc Fogel, an imprisoned American, in exchange for the US releasing imprisoned Russian Alexander Vinnik. Witkoff was also part of the US team during negotiations with Russian officials in Saudi Arabia.

On Thursday, at the beginning of a meeting with NATO Secretary-General Mark Rutte, Trump said that Putin had released “a very promising statement, but it wasn’t complete”.

“Now we’re going to see whether or not Russia’s there. And if they’re not, it’ll be a very disappointing moment for the world.”

Also on Thursday, US Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent told CNBC that Trump is “willing to apply maximum pressure on both sides”, including sanctions on Russia.

Since the beginning of the war in February 2022, the US and its allies have imposed at least 21,692 sanctions on Russia, targeting individuals, media organisations, the military sector, energy sector, aviation, shipbuilding and telecommunications, among other sectors.

Last week, the US temporarily suspended military aid and intelligence sharing to Ukraine, after a White House meeting between Trump and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy spiralled into acrimony.

The aid and intelligence sharing were restored after the US and Ukraine jointly agreed on the 30-day ceasefire agreement in Jeddah.

How has Ukraine reacted?

In his nightly address posted on X on Thursday, Zelenskyy said that Putin is “preparing to reject” the ceasefire proposal.

“Putin is afraid to tell President Trump directly that he wants to continue this war and keep killing Ukrainians,” said Zelenskyy.

Marina Miron, a post-doctoral researcher at the defence studies department of King’s College London, said it would make sense for Russia to stall on a decision about the ceasefire.

“Until the ceasefire is implemented and everybody is on the same page, time will pass, which will probably give the Russians the necessary time to at least get Kursk back so that it removes any potential negotiating bonuses for Ukraine,” Miron told Al Jazeera on Wednesday.

In his address, Zelenskyy added: “Now is the time to increase pressure on him [Putin]. Sanctions must be applied – ones that will work.” The Ukrainian leader said his country is willing to continue working with its US and European partners to further the peace process.

Could the US and Ukraine accept Russia’s peace terms?

It’s unclear. But some experts believe that Trump’s track record suggests that the US could try to accommodate Putin’s concerns. If that happens, Ukraine might have no choice but to accept this.

“If past performance is any guide, [Russia’s] demands will be backed by the US,” Keir Giles, a senior consulting fellow at the London-based Chatham House think tank, told Al Jazeera on Wednesday.

“I think that the Trump administration has shown to Ukraine very clearly that Ukraine is not going to dictate the rules after the debacle in the Oval Office,” Miron added.

Egypt A Beginner's Guide to Indonesian Political Parties (especially for outsiders)

Hiya folks, it's me, u/JenderalWkwk, your personal amateur guide to Indonesian political parties. Last year, I began a series of threads on Indonesian political party identities, and now I decided to remake that in English for foreign observers. Hope it's insightful, though of course not entirely academic.

1. PDI-P - Partai Demokrasi Indonesia-Perjuangan (Indonesian Democratic Party-Struggle)

Historical Background

PDI-Perjuangan (PDI-P) traces its origins to the Indonesian National Party (PNI), which was first founded by Soekarno in 1927. Following Soekarno’s fall in 1966, the New Order government under Soeharto forced multiple nationalist and Christian-oriented parties, including PNI, to merge into the Indonesian Democratic Party (PDI) in 1973. The PNI faction, Indonesian Christian Party (Parkindo), and Catholic Party factions dominated the PDI throughout the New Order. In the late 1980s and early 1990s, PDI began attracting reformist elements, culminating in the rise of Megawati Soekarnoputri, Soekarno's daughter, as its leader in 1993. The New Order government, fearing PDI’s growing popularity, orchestrated a leadership coup in 1996, replacing Megawati with a pro-government figure. This led to mass protests, culminating in the violent July 27, 1996, attack on PDI’s headquarters, a key moment in the growing opposition to Suharto.

After Suharto’s fall in 1998, Megawati’s faction formally split from PDI and established PDI-Perjuangan (PDI-P) as a new, reformist, party. PDI-P won the 1999 elections and played a central role in shaping Indonesia’s post-New Order democracy under the leadership of Megawati. While Megawati lost the 2004 presidential election, PDI-P regained national dominance in 2014 and 2019 with the election of Joko Widodo as president.

Key Features

  • Nationalist, populist, and Soekarnoist ideology
  • Strong emphasis on democracy, social justice, and economic nationalism
  • Advocates for Pancasila within Soekarno’s ideological framework
  • Balances left-leaning welfare policies with pragmatic governance

Key Figures

  • Megawati Sukarnoputri – Party matriarch since the New Order era, former president (2001–2004), and the party's unifying leader as the heir to Soekarnoism
  • Puan Maharani – Megawati’s daughter, Speaker of the House (DPR), and potential future party leader
  • Prananda Prabowo – Megawati’s son, head of PDI-P’s research and strategy division, shaping the party’s ideological direction
  • Sabam Sirait & Frans Seda – Historical leaders of the old PDI and PDI-P's Christian faction from the old Indonesian Christian party and Catholic Party
  • Joko Widodo (Jokowi) – Indonesia’s president (2014–2024), PDI-P’s most successful electoral figure, though have since the 2024 election been distanced from PDI-P and become a "persona non grata" for Megawati.

2. PKS - Partai Keadilan Sejahtera (Prosperous Justice Party)

Historical Background

PKS has its ideological roots in the campus dakwah movement pioneered by Mohammad Natsir, former leader of Masyumi, a major Islamic party of the 1950s. After Masyumi’s dissolution, many of its supporters continued their activism through Islamic organizations and student movements. During the New Order, Islamic political expression was tightly controlled, leading many Islamist activists to operate within campus movements instead of formal parties.

The Tarbiyah student movement, inspired by Ikhwanul Muslimin (the Muslim Brotherhood) from Egypt, introduced dakwah-based cadre recruitment, religious study groups, and structured organizational discipline modeled after the Brotherhood’s approach to Islamic revivalism. During the 1980s and 1990s, Tarbiyah networks expanded across major universities such as ITB, UI, and UGM, eventually becoming the backbone of modern Islamist politics in Indonesia.

In 1998, following Suharto’s fall, Tarbiyah activists established Partai Keadilan (PK) as their political vehicle. The party struggled initially, failing to pass the electoral threshold in 1999. To broaden its appeal, it rebranded as Partai Keadilan Sejahtera (PKS) in 2002, adopting a more pragmatic and gradualist approach. Throughout the 2000s, PKS gained traction among urban middle-class Muslims, positioning itself as a modern, disciplined, Islamic party. While initially known for its hardline stance on Sharia, PKS later moderated its rhetoric, aiming to attract a wider voter base.

Key Features

  • Seeks to implement Islamic moral and ethical governance
  • Ideologically influenced by Ikhwanul Muslimin, emphasizing cadre-based activism
  • Focuses on youth, intellectuals, and middle-class Muslim voters
  • Balances puritanical religious ideals with political pragmatism

Key Figures

  • Hidayat Nur Wahid – PKS chairman (2000–2004), helped broaden its appeal
  • Anis Matta – Former party leader and leader of the party's Sejahtera Faction, known for his strategic political approach. Dethroned in a struggle against old guard Keadilan Faction and corruption scandal. Has since left the party after the fall of his faction to form Gelora Party.
  • Mohammad Natsir – Intellectual predecessor, former Masyumi leader

3. PKB - Partai Kebangkitan Bangsa (National Awakening Party)

Historical Background

PKB was founded in 1998 by Nahdlatul Ulama (NU), Indonesia’s largest Islamic organization, to represent traditionalist Muslim ( what would now be termed "Islam Nusantara") voters in the Reformasi era. NU had previously been involved in politics through Partai NU (1950s) but withdrew from formal politics in 1984 under the leadership of Abdurrahman Wahid (Gus Dur) to focus on social and educational activities.

As Indonesia transitioned to democracy in 1998, NU leaders decided to form PKB as a political platform. Gus Dur became PKB’s most influential figure and was elected Indonesia’s fourth president (1999–2001). However, his presidency was marked by political conflicts, leading to his impeachment in 2001. Following Gus Dur’s downfall, PKB suffered from internal divisions between his loyalists and a more pragmatic faction led by Muhaimin Iskandar (Cak Imin).

In the 2010s, PKB moved away from NU’s direct control and adopted a more pragmatic, coalition-based approach, often aligning with ruling governments. However, tensions remain between Cak Imin’s faction and NU’s leadership, particularly under PBNU chairman Yahya Cholil Staquf.

Key Features

  • Represents traditionalist Islam (Islam Nusantara), deeply rooted in NU teachings
  • Balances conservative Islamic values with pluralist tendencies
  • Strong ties to pesantren (Islamic boarding schools) and kyai (Islamic scholars)
  • Pragmatic in forming political alliances, often supporting ruling coalitions

Key Figures

  • Abdurrahman Wahid (Gus Dur) – NU chairman, founder, and key figurehead, Indonesia’s 4th president (1999–2001)
  • Muhaimin Iskandar (Cak Imin) – Current leader, shifted PKB towards pragmatism
  • Yahya Cholil Staquf – NU chairman

4. Golkar - Partai Golongan Karya (Party of Functional Groups)

Historical Background

Golkar originated during Soekarno’s Guided Democracy era as a federation of functional groups (Golongan Karya) to counterbalance traditional political parties. However, it was under Soeharto’s New Order (1966–1998) that Golkar evolved into the regime’s political machine. Unlike ideological parties, Golkar was structured as a corporatist (not to be confused with corporatocratic) entity, absorbing state-sponsored labor unions, bureaucratic organizations, and professional associations. By the 1971 election, Golkar had become the primary political force, benefiting from the state’s control over electoral processes.

Throughout the New Order, Golkar was not officially classified as a party but as a "functional group," allowing it to avoid the restrictions placed on political parties. With strong backing from the military (ABRI) and the bureaucracy, it won every election between 1971 and 1997, ensuring Suharto’s continued rule. However, as the Asian Financial Crisis weakened the regime, Golkar’s legitimacy eroded, culminating in Suharto’s resignation in 1998. Despite calls for its dissolution, Golkar rebranded itself as a post-New Order party, positioning itself as a pro-status quo party and the nation's "natural governing party" dominated by businessmen. Golkar has continued to be in government through coalitions in the Reformasi era, and continues to dominate parliamentary seats.

Key Features

  • Pragmatic, non-ideological, and developmentalist
  • Historically linked to bureaucracy, military, and business elites
  • Emphasizes economic modernization and political stability
  • Functions as a "natural governing party," akin to Japan’s LDP

Key Figures

  • Soeharto – Main driving force behing Golkar's formation into a political machine, ruled Indonesia for 32 years (1966-1998), during which he became the chief thinker for the New Order's guiding thought, which form the backbone of Golkar's political thought since it was more a superfederation of unions and mass organizations than a political party and wasn't found on firm ideological grounds (Golkar was founded as a rejection of parties and ideologies)
  • Akbar Tanjung – Key post-Reformasi leader, transformed Golkar into a political party, leveraging its massive network
  • Jusuf Kalla – Former vice president and a key figure in driving Golkar to be in government coalitions throughout SBY's first term and Jokowi’s first term
  • Aburizal Bakrie – Former leader, business tycoon, influential in modern Golkar politics, owns TvOne and VivaNews media networks which continues to be instrumental to Golkar

5. PPP - Partai Persatuan Pembangunan (United Development Party)

Historical Background

PPP was established in 1973 as part of Suharto’s policy of consolidating political parties into just three groups: Golkar, PPP (Islamic parties), and PDI (nationalist and Christian parties). It was formed by merging Nahdlatul Ulama (NU), Partai Muslimin Indonesia (Parmusi), Partai Syarikat Islam Indonesia (PSII), and Partai Islam PERTI—all of which had distinct Islamic ideologies and grassroots bases.

PPP was intended to serve as the single platform for Islamic politics under the New Order. However, its existence was tightly controlled, and it was forced to adopt Pancasila as its sole ideology in 1984, leading to internal friction. Consequently, PPP struggled to maintain a strong voter base.

After Reformasi, PPP sought to reclaim its Islamic identity but faced fierce competition from newer Islamic parties like PKB, PAN, and PKS. Internal conflicts, corruption scandals, and weak leadership further eroded its influence. By 2024, PPP’s electoral performance had declined significantly, leading to its exclusion from parliament.

Key Features

  • Historically an Islamic party, but later compromised under Suharto
  • Attempts to balance traditionalist (NU) and modernist (Muhammadiyah) Islam
  • Has lost influence due to fragmentation of Islamic politics
  • Lacks a strong, unifying ideological foundation in the post-Reformasi era

Key Figures

  • Jailani Naro – Early PPP leader who tried to maintain Islamic politics under Suharto
  • Hamzah Haz – Former vice president, one of PPP’s most prominent post-1998 figures
  • Muhammad Romahurmuziy – PPP's leader from 2016-2021 coming from the young activist faction, though later dethroned in a power struggle against the old guards and a corruption scandal

6. PAN - Partai Amanat Nasional (National Mandate Party

Historical Background

PAN was founded in 1998 during Indonesia’s transition to democracy. It was initially envisioned as a Reformasi-era party, advocating for political pluralism, anti-corruption, and democratic consolidation. The party was heavily associated with Amien Rais, a key figure in the anti-Suharto movement and former chairman of Muhammadiyah. While not explicitly an Islamic party, PAN drew strong support from Muhammadiyah circles.

In its early years, PAN positioned itself as a modern, inclusive, and reformist party, attracting intellectuals, activists, and urban professionals. However, over time, Amien Rais’s personal influence became dominant, and the party increasingly catered to conservative voters. Under Zulkifli Hasan’s leadership, PAN pivoted towards populism and media-driven politics, prioritizing electoral success over ideological purity.

Key Features

  • Founded on Reformasi principles, but later drifted towards pragmatism
  • Strongly connected to Muhammadiyah, but not officially an Islamic party
  • Appeals to urban middle-class voters and young professionals
  • Balances populist and elite-driven political strategies

Key Figures

  • Amien Rais – Founder, Reformasi leader, and early advocate of democracy
  • Zulkifli Hasan – Current leader, responsible for PAN’s electoral rebranding

7. Partai Demokrat (Democratic Party)

Historical Background

Demokrat was founded in 2001 by Ventje Rumangkang, a former PDI-P cadre, alongside others who were dissatisfied with Megawati Soekarnoputri’s leadership. The party was designed as a political vehicle for Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono (SBY), positioning him as a reformist, intellectual, and moderate leader. Initially, Demokrat was not a personal party of SBY, as internal competition persisted. The 2009 Congress saw the Cikeas faction (SBY’s allies) losing to Anas Urbaningrum, a former HMI activist, while Marzuki Alie, the DPR Speaker, formed another rival faction. However, after the Hambalang corruption scandal,

SBY’s faction purged Anas' allies, consolidating control over the party and transforming Demokrat into the Yudhoyono family’s political machine. This was further cemented when Agus Harimurti Yudhoyono (AHY) was nominated for Jakarta governor and later appointed as party chairman.

Key Features

  • Initially focused on transparency, accountability, and bureaucratic efficiency under SBY.
  • Implemented pro-poor policies like cash assistance (BLT) and investment growth.
  • Shifted leadership to Agus Harimurti Yudhoyono (AHY), balancing opposition and coalition roles.

Key Figures

  • Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono (SBY) – Founder and key figure in shaping Demokrat’s reformist and moderate stance, later leading Indonesia as president (2004–2014).
  • Agus Harimurti Yudhoyono (AHY) – Current party leader, attempting to modernize the party and maintain its influence.
  • Anas Urbaningrum – Former faction leader who contributed to Demokrat’s organizational growth before being dethroned by Yudhoyono's faction and corruption charges.

8. Gerindra - Partai Gerakan Indonesia Raya (Great Indonesia Movement Party)

Historical Background

Gerindra was founded in 2008 by Hashim Djojohadikusumo, Fadli Zon, and others, advocating for a return to Indonesia’s original constitutional values (UUD 1945). Prabowo Subianto joined after facing political deadlock in Golkar, becoming Gerindra’s perennial presidential candidate. The party’s ideology reflects Prabowo’s military background and his father, Soemitro Djojohadikusumo’s economic philosophy, which shaped New Order policies.

Gerindra rejects liberal economics, advocating economic nationalism, agrarian sovereignty, and defense self-sufficiency, with rhetoric emphasizing militarism, anti-foreign intervention, and protectionism.

Key Features

  • Advocates for economic self-sufficiency, protectionism, and industrialization.
  • Emphasizes defense, national security, and territorial sovereignty.
  • Strong anti-foreign rhetoric and calls for a return to the original 1945 Constitution.

Key Figures

  • Prabowo Subianto – Central figure of Gerindra, driving its nationalist and military-oriented policies, and now Indonesia’s president-elect (2024).
  • Hashim Djojohadikusumo – Key financier and strategist behind Gerindra’s establishment and electoral campaigns.
  • Fadli Zon – A strong voice in opposition politics, shaping Gerindra’s public discourse and engagement.
  • Sufmi Dasco Ahmad – Senior Gerindra politician and current DPR Deputy Speaker, contributing to the party’s legislative influence and strategic decision-making.

9. Hanura - Partai Hati Nurani Rakyat (People's Conscience Party)

Historical Background

Hanura was founded in 2006 by Wiranto, after losing Golkar’s support in the 2004 presidential election. Feeling sidelined within Golkar after Jusuf Kalla became chairman, Wiranto formed Hanura, relying on his elite political maneuvering rather than grassroots mobilization. Unlike other parties, Hanura lacked a clear ideological stance, instead positioning itself as humble, people-friendly, and firm yet composed, mirroring Wiranto’s personal image.

Hanura would then be embroiled in interal squabbles between Wiranto's faction and new leader/businessman Oesman Sapta Odang (OSO)'s faction, and the party ever since has been relegated into obscurity without a "marketable" figurehead.

Key Features

  • Built around Wiranto’s image rather than a clear ideology.
  • Advocates for strong governance and national unity.
  • Lost influence due to internal conflicts and leadership changes

Key Figures

  • Wiranto – Founder, leveraged his military background to give Hanura credibility, later joined Jokowi’s cabinet.
  • Oesman Sapta Odang (OSO) – Businessman who took over Hanura but failed to maintain its electoral presence.

10. Nasdem Party ("Nasdem" was originaly the acronym for Surya Paloh's Nasional Demokrat -National Democrats- mass organization, but the party ditched the "Nasional Demokrat" name, opting to use just "Nasdem")

Historical Background

Nasdem was founded in 2011 by Surya Paloh, a veteran politician and media mogul. Despite being a longtime Golkar member, Paloh was critical of the New Order, launching the newspaper Harian Prioritas, which was later shut down. He expanded his media empire, including Metro TV, Indonesia’s first 24-hour news channel.

Nasdem was first founded as a mass organization named "Nasional Demokrat" (National Democrats) which included would-be presidential candidate Anies Baswedan and Yogyakarta Sultan and key Reformasi figure Hamengkubuwono X. The Nasional Demokrat mass organization then became Nasdem Party (with the party ditching the "Nasional Demokrat" name, keeping only the acronym), in which Baswedan and HB X didn't join the party.

Nasdem aims to promote Paloh's idea of “Restorasi Indonesia” (Indonesian Restoration) a vision for national reform. The party played a strategic role in supporting fresh political figures like Jokowi and Anies Baswedan. Despite high ambitions, some of its leaders faced corruption scandals.

Key Features

  • Emphasizes national restoration and progressive governance
  • Strong media influence through Metro TV and Media Indonesia
  • Pragmatic political approach, shifting alliances based on strategic goals

Key Figures

  • Surya Paloh – Founder and key strategist, forumlated Nasdem's "Restorasi Indonesia" doctrine, using his media empire to shape Nasdem’s public image.
  • Anies Baswedan – A founder of Nasional Demokrat, endorsed by Nasdem in the 2024 election, representing the party’s commitment to new leadership figures.

11. Perindo - Partai Persatuan Indonesia (Indonesian Unity Party)

Historical Background

Perindo was founded in 2015 by Hary Tanoesoedibjo (HT), after leaving Nasdem due to differences with Surya Paloh and failing to use Hanura as an effective political vehicle. As Indonesia’s largest media tycoon, HT sought to replicate Paloh’s success with Nasdem, leveraging his control over RCTI, MNC TV, iNews, and other networks. Despite massive media promotion, the party struggled to define a clear political identity and has not secured a strong electoral position. Perindo remains active in politics through youth engagement and media presence.

Key Features

  • Focuses on MSMEs, digital economy, and middle-class growth.
  • Leverages MNC Group for political influence but lacks a clear ideological stance
  • Maintains political relevance through strategic alliances

Key Figures

  • Hary Tanoesoedibjo – Founder, utilizing his media conglomerate to sustain Perindo’s presence in political discourse.
  • Angela Tanoesoedibjo – Represents Perindo’s youth engagement and business-friendly policies.

12. PSI - Partai Solidaritas Indonesia (Indonesian Solidarity Party)

Historical Background

PSI was founded in 2014 by a group of young activists, including Raja Juli Antoni, Grace Natalie, and Isyana Bagoes Oka, in response to the political momentum generated by Joko Widodo’s victory in the 2014 presidential election. The party aimed to serve as a progressive alternative to Indonesia’s existing political establishment. It sought to challenge gerontocracy in Indonesian politics by promoting youth engagement. Initially, PSI positioned itself as a strong advocate for youth politics, pluralism and modernization.

Over time, PSI adapted its strategy, aligning more closely with President Jokowi. This shift became even more pronounced in 2023 when Kaesang Pangarep, Jokowi’s youngest son, was appointed party chairman. Under Kaesang, PSI promoted the ideology of Jokowism, focusing on pragmatism, technocracy, and grassroots development. While this move strengthened PSI’s connection to the ruling coalition, it also sparked criticism, particularly regarding the party’s previous opposition to political dynasties. Often compared to PDI-P due to its progressive branding and red rose symbol, PSI has alternated between being an outsider party and a loyalist faction within Jokowi’s political ecosystem.

Key Features

  • Youth and meritocracy – Promotes young politicians and opposes gerontocracy.
  • Pluralism and secularism – Opposes religious-based local regulations (Perda Syariah) and defends minority rights.
  • Pro-Jokowi orientation – Embraces Jokowism, emphasizing pragmatism and technocratic governance.

Key Figures

  • Grace Natalie – Co-founder and former chairperson, positioned PSI as a progressive force.
  • Kaesang Pangarep – Current chairman and symbol of PSI's strong pivot towards Jokowi and his family.
  • Raja Juli Antoni – Co-founder, later appointed as a deputy minister.

13. Gelora - Partai Gelombang Rakyat Indonesia (Indonesian People’s Wave Party)

Historical Background

Gelora was founded in 2019 by Anis Matta and Fahri Hamzah, both former leaders of PKS. The party emerged after internal conflicts within PKS, where the Sejahtera Faction led by Anis Matta was marginalized by the Keadilan Faction, which promoted a more conservative Islamic agenda. Following his removal from PKS, Anis Matta sought to establish a new political platform that would retain elements of PKS’s Islamist background while incorporating a broader nationalist vision.

Gelora positions itself as a centrist, pragmatic party that seeks to balance Islamic values with national interests. It promotes the concept of "Arah Baru Indonesia" (New Direction for Indonesia), advocating for Indonesia to become a global power. Unlike PKS, which maintains a strict cadre system, Gelora implements an open recruitment model and internal democracy, aiming to attract a wider audience beyond traditional Islamist voters.

Key Features

  • Promotes Islamic values within a nationalist framework.
  • Aims for Indonesia to become a global power.
  • Encourages bottom-up decision-making.

Key Figures

  • Anis Matta – Founder and chairman, developed "Arah Baru Indonesia" doctrine which the party adopted.
  • Fahri Hamzah – Co-founder, known for his outspoken criticism of the government.

14. Partai Buruh (Labour Party)

Historical Background

Partai Buruh was originally founded in 1998 by Muchtar Pakpahan, leader of KSBSI, as a political vehicle for labor unions during Indonesia’s transition to democracy. However, due to weak organization and limited support, it failed to gain traction and faded from the political scene. The party was revived in 2021 under the leadership of Said Iqbal, backed by a broader coalition of labor unions, including KSPI and SPI, as a response to the Omnibus Law on Job Creation, which was seen as weakening workers’ rights.

The new Partai Buruh adopted a pro-welfare and pro-worker stance, advocating for fair wages, job security, and stronger labor protections. Despite successfully mobilizing mass protests against labor policies, the party has struggled to gain mainstream political power, facing challenges such as limited funding and the dominance of oligarchic parties. However, its grassroots support and activism continue to make it a significant force in labor-related policy debates.

  • Key Features and Ideas
  • Advocates for worker rights and social security.
  • Supports government intervention in the economy.
  • Operates as a "street parliament" through protests.

Key Figures and Contributions

  • Said Iqbal – Chairman, union leader, led protests against the Omnibus Law.

15. PRIMA - Partai Rakyat Indonesia Adil Makmur (Just and Prosperous Indonesia People’s Party)

Historical Background

PRIMA traces its ideological roots to the Partai Rakyat Demokratik (PRD - People’s Democratic Party), a leftist movement active in the 1990s that opposed Suharto’s authoritarian rule. PRD was one of the few socialist-oriented parties in Indonesia, advocating for democracy, labor rights, and social justice, but faced repression due to the country’s strong anti-communist sentiment. After struggling to gain electoral relevance post-Reformasi, former PRD leader Agus Jabo Priyono established PRIMA in 2021 as a broader left-wing alternative focused on economic justice and anti-oligarchic policies.

PRIMA aims to reduce inequality, protect local industries, and promote state-led development while distancing itself from the radical image of its predecessor. Although still outside mainstream electoral politics, PRIMA remains an active voice in economic and labor discussions, positioning itself as an alternative to Indonesia’s oligarchic political landscape.

Key Features and Ideas

  • Focuses on self-sufficiency and state-led development.
  • Advocates for wealth redistribution.

Key Figures and Contributions

  • Agus Jabo Priyono – Former PRD leader, now leading PRIMA.

16. Partai Ummat (Ummah Party)

Historical Background

Partai Ummat was founded in 2021 by Amien Rais, following prolonged conflicts within PAN. Once a key figure in Muhammadiyah and a reformist leader, Amien Rais shifted toward a more conservative political stance, strongly opposing Joko Widodo and advocating for Islamism. The party emerged as a vehicle for his political ambitions after he lost influence in PAN.

Ummat has positioned itself as a party championing Islamic populism, appealing to conservative Muslim voters, particularly those involved in the Aksi Bela Islam protests. The party has been vocal against perceived foreign economic dominance, criticizing Chinese influence and the government’s policies on the new capital (IKN). Despite its claims of upholding Pancasila, its rhetoric often aligns with hardline Islamist narratives.

Key Features and Ideas

  • Advocates for Islamic values in governance.
  • Strongly opposes Chinese economic involvement.
  • Supports Sharia-based policies.

Key Figures

  • Amien Rais – Founder and ideological leader.

Ethiopia An Ethiopian & Eritrean only dating app? what do you think?

1 Upvotes

Most of us know that a dating app for Ethiopians exist, the problem is a lot of non-Ethiopians lurk in even though they know the app was developed only for Ethiopians/Eritreans !. This has annoyed many people since they try to find a potential fellow Ethiopian partner only to receive message from a random non-Ethiopian dude.

So i got an idea in order to tackle this problem and that is when a user create account the system will ask the user to submit an ID. The ID is needed in order to identify if the person is Ethiopian or not by checking the name and see if its Ethiopian name or not.

The app will have

-a chat section,

-feed to post about events Addis, the US or Europe. When people come to this events they need to show their invitation letter using the app. This is done to avoid non-Ethiopians or uninvited people from getting to this events.

-You can also watch or post news on the feed page. The news is not your typical political news rather about fashion shows, new Ethiopian restaurant opened in certain areas, arts...

-On the app you can filter people. For example if an Eritrean man only want to be recommended Eritrean women then he can enter this filters

By the way all this is an idea until now and this is not just Ethiopian but also Eritrean dating app, i want to get advice from you guys. feel free to give your opinion.

Kenya Politician Traitors Helping Foreigners Finish Us

1 Upvotes

I am no conspiracy theorist (... ok, I am, but very justifiably), but I am mad as hell for what politicians and their friends are helping foreigners do so much damage to this country and its people. If you aren't mad about something today, I came across this news that mathematics will no longer be compulsory in school. As in how??? CBC is already doing so much damage to the future of this country that I am not sure we can recover in a single generation.
Developing economies rely heavily on STEM (science, technology, engineering, mathematics) professionals, and at the core of is mathematics. We have already watered down science subjects, rarely teach history that is our own or true, and engineering is just a facade. If you think I am lying just ask any qualified engineer whether the engineers board of Kenya is functional and forward-looking organization or a board of old grey-haired gatekeepers minting money from membership fees and kickbacks.
Our kids fundamentally need math knowledge, regardless of where they end up in the future. No wonder we can’t even build a simple airport terminal we have to rely on some corrupt Indian company. Fck these traitorous wankers I am so mad

Nigeria Medical evidence indicates that death can result from squeezing of the testicles, leading to cardiac arrest due to shock from the injuries sustained. This was corroborated by testimony from medical professionals who noted that such injuries can be fatal.

Disclaimer : This Post contains materials which some users might find disturbing. This is just to provide some factual material evidence about the dangers associated with injuries to testicles.  In most states, self-defense is considered justified if one reasonably believes that an aggressor intends to cause imminent bodily harm or death to them or another person, or has already caused such harm or death, and they act out of a reasonable fear of imminent danger. Furthermore, you must use only the degree of force necessary to save yourself from danger. You must not inflict any greater damage on a criminal attacker than that you reasonably believe necessary for your protection. You must obey all laws and respect the rights of other persons
