Memories from Nemesis: Tale of a Peruvian Maoist
An interesting discussion of Abimael Guzman’s autobiography. Some readers have suggested that I am too Eurasianist in my geopolitical outlook, but I’d argue I’m actually closer to the Senderos than the Duginists. Obviously, I don’t share their Maoist fundamentalism, but their geopolitical outlook was to reject both the […]

By David Gordon Anthony de Jasay, an important free market economist and political philosopher passed away on January 23. Born in Hungary in 1925, he studied at Nuffield College, Oxford, where he was a protégé of I.M.D. Little, a leading authority on welfare economics. Like Little, de Jasay […]
Against Anarcho-Liberalism and the curse of identity politics
At last, some anarchists who get it. Woke Anarchists Anarchism in the UK is a joke. Once symbolising hard-fought struggles for freedom, the word has been stripped bare to make way for narrow-minded, separatist and hateful identity politics by middle class activists keen to protect their own privileges. […]

Feminism Against Chauvinistic Feminism
By Nicky Reid aka Comrade Hermit Exile in Happy Valley I’ve long considered myself to be a feminist, even before I realized I was trans. It’s always seemed like basic common sense to me that people shouldn’t be defined by the contents of their genitalia but by the […]
Elliott Abrams, prominent D.C. neocon, named special envoy for Venezuela
Well, if we didn’t know what was up in Venezuela before. Podhoretz son-in-law back in the game. As a general rule, I think Trump has been better on Russia, China, the DPRK, Afghanistan and Syria than a conventional Republican or neoconservative would have been (all things considered). But […]
Salon Interview: Tucker Carlson bashes capitalism, says he might vote for Elizabeth Warren
Not exactly the kind of left/right coalition I would envision, but you’ve got to crawl before you can run, I guess. By Matthew Rozsa Salon.Com In my recent interview with Tucker Carlson, he waited until nearly the end of a long conversation to drop a bomb: He might […]
Alain de Benoist: Jair Bolsonaro’s program is appalling!
That so many Western, particularly American, right-wingers are fans of Bolsonaro illustrates why the Right remains as useless as the Left. Geopolitca.RU Elected president of Brazil last October, with more than 55% of the vote, Jair Bolsonaro just took office. The left, which multiplies the anathemas against him […]

Alexander Reid-Ross-Podhoretz-Kristol: State Department Anarchist
Mr. Antifa Intellectual serves up the “Anarcho-MSNBC” line. This kind of stuff is why I started attacking anarcho-social democrats and totalitarian humanists so vehemently 20 years ago. Regrettably, a substantial tendency has developed among “anarchists” that opposes regional or localized illiberalism more than it opposes imperialism, opposes marginal […]

By J.P. Cortez Cheyenne, Wyoming (January 17, 2019) – A group of Wyoming legislators have introduced three bills this week to de-risk the state’s financial holdings with modest allocations to physical gold and silver in the state’s pension fund, reserve fund, and mineral trust fund.

My Decades Long Conspiracy to Subvert an Irrelevant Fringe Subculture
Apparently, the C4SS crowd is now being attacked by rival leftists for being associated with “fascists,” with yours truly being among the primary exhibits in favor of the prosecution. And the accuser is none less than Max Blumenthal, son of former Bill Clinton advisor Sidney Blumenthal. I have […]
Who Cares About Russia?
The Russian Bear is the Wizard of Oz, and Putin is the man behind the curtain. The Russophilia of the far left/far right and the Russophobia of the center left/center right is pathetic. My own geopolitical outlook is more like that of the classical anarchists of the late […]
Tulsi Gabbard Is Running For President In 2020
This is a pretty good discussion of Gabbard. From what I can tell, she’s basically just a moderate who trends liberal on social issues, who is pro-military, pro-Israel, and pro-terror war but who merely thinks the neocon/neoliberal foreign policy paradigm is insane (which it is), largely from her […]

Views on Press TV anchor’s arrest
Keith Preston, director of the Attackthesystem.com “The arrest of Marzieh Hashemi is clearly an effort to silence voices that speak in opposition to the policies of the American government, and to intimidate others to prevent them from speaking. Marzieh Hashemi is being used as a hostage for the […]
Poll: Most Americans blame Trump, Republicans for longest govt. shutdown

The Devil’s Triangle?
My reading of the history of the 20th century is that Capitalism, Communism and Fascism were merely different points on the same triangle that deserved each other. All three were responsible for tens of millions of deaths.
General McChrystal and General Lee
It’s interesting how even the leadership of the military caste has bought into the System’s ideology of combining imperialism and neoliberal economics with cultural leftism. Careerists will be careerists, I guess. Mattis and McChrystal: “We gotta make sure the wine and cheese crowd will buy our books and […]
The Alternative to Ideology
By Jerry Taylor Niskanen Center When we launched the Niskanen Center in January 2015, we happily identified ourselves as libertarians.

The school we identified with was a left-libertarianism […]

U.S. border patrols use tear gas against migrants

Ann Coulter vs Hasan Piker on Immigration
A predictable shit show. I love political fractiousness. Virtually none of the contending factions associated with the present political/culture war paradigm have any relevance to the pan-anarchist position. All of them are groups that seek control of the state or seek to solicit favors from the state. The […]
Kyle Kulinski Vs Hasan Piker Debate On Free Speech
A pro-free speech progressive vs an antifa on free speech. I am actually somewhere between these two guys.
