Don Jr. reacts to Biden’s DNC address: He’s ‘the ultimate swamp creature’
“Orange Man vs. the Swamp Creature” might actually make for an interesting comic book series.
Keith Preston
Tucker: Has life improved in Democrat-run cities?
No, but it hasn’t improved under Republican-run federal administrations or state governments either. So fuck ’em all.
Biden Accepts Nom At Most Substance Free DNC In History
Biden: “I may be senile and can barely talk but at least I’m not a crazy unhinged asshole like that guy.” Krystal’s point that Republicans had more speaking time than progressives at the convention is definitely interesting, and indicative what the Democraps are.
Bannon’s indictment raises more uneasy questions about William Barr’s SDNY gambit
On the surface, this looks like a Deep State/Democrat collusion, unless Barr is secretly assuming the role of Heinrich Himmler against Bannon’s Ernst Rohm. Given that this article is from WaPo (the Bezos-owned Voice of Deep State), it’s hard to tell. By Aaron Blake Two months ago, Attorney […]
Steve Bannon charged with defrauding donors in private effort to raise money for Trump’s border wall
In our system of soft totalitarian police statism and hyper criminalization, with an arcane legal code creating hundreds of thousands of arrestable acts, everyone is technically a “criminal,” which is one reason why I can’t get too worked up about “crime” on a general level. By all means, […]
Facebook Bans Some QAnon, US-Based Militia, Anarchist Groups, Accounts But Allows Posts
“No cool people allowed on Facebook. Only dweebs, nerds, and losers need apply,” said the Zuck. San Francisco CBS Local OAKLAND (AP) — Facebook said it will restrict the right-wing conspiracy movement QAnon and will no longer recommend that users join groups supporting it, although the company isn’t […]
Facebook announce crackdown against anarchists
I feel honored to have already been banned from Facebook. I was ahead of my time, apparently. By Eko Red/Black Notes Social media giant Facebook today banned dozens of anarchist, anti-fascist and anti-capitalist pages after announcing a new crackdown against “anarchist groups that support violent acts”. This crackdown […]
Obama Speech IGNORES His Failings, Responsibility For Bringing Trump To Office
Obama is just as much of a con man as Trump. He is simply better spoken and better behaved in public.
Kamala, Obama, Hillary, And The No Good, Vapid, Identity Obsessed DNC
Krystal and Saager are great at critiquing the bankruptcy of the ruling class. It’s too bad all they offer in its place is lame Scandinavian social democracy or East Asian mercantilism. A program like this hosted by a serious left-anarchist (like David Graeber, Carne Ross, or Cindy Milstein) […]
On Facebook Banning Pages that Support CrimethInc.com
Crimethinc Facebook has taken down multiple Facebook pages they believe to be connected with crimethinc.com and itsgoingdown.org, among other anarchist and anti-fascist publishing projects,1 officially on the pretext that they “support violence.” This has nothing to do with stopping violence and everything to do with suppressing social movements […]
Joe Biden: An old man trying to lead a young country
Biden is playing the same role in relation to the Totalitarian Humanists that Paul von Hindenberg played to the National Socialists. By John F. Harris Politico Joseph R. Biden Jr., at the age of 77 years, nine months, and 10 days has been alive for just a shade […]
Here’s Why I’m NOT a Libertarian
This fellow’s argument amounts to a rejection of natural rights, free will, and the view that individuals can really be “self-made” (all of which I agree with) and an embrace of Hobbesian social contract theory plus Rawls’ veil of ignorance theory, which amounts to an endorsement of social […]
Is the Left Eating Itself?
This is a pretty good summary of what is problematic about what is often passed off as the “left” today. The totalitarian humanist left essentially wishes to compromise Enlightenment values like free speech, freedom of religion, due process, etc. for the sake of “repressive tolerance” and to compromise […]
Saudi Arabia Is Just An Honest America: Notes From The Edge Of The Narrative Matrix
By Caitlin Johnstone Saudi Arabia is just an honest version of America. The tyranny is right out in the open, state censorship is straightforward instead of being outsourced to Silicon Valley, the oligarchs and the official government are the same people, they don’t pretend their wars are humanitarian, […]
The Legacy of the Iron Front
Of any outcome that had a reasonable chance in Weimar, the victory of the SPD/Iron Front would have been the most optimal. Ideally, there would be an umbrella alliance for all anti-authoritarians, i.e. everyone who rejects Trumpism, Neoconservatism, Neoliberalism, Fascism, and Communism. “To my conservative friends: let me […]
Palestinians slam ‘traitor’ UAE for normalising ties with Israel
The good news is that Dubai is an interesting smart city project that will make for an interesting municipal anarchist startup society once the present UAE ruling class and the regime are overthrown. Ibrahim Husseini Al Jazeera Occupied East Jerusalem – The United Arab Emirates (UAE) decision to normalise […]
Metal Band Arsames Escape Iran After Being Sentenced to 15 Years in Prison
We must oppose all states everywhere. What we need is something like the Non-Aligned Movement, only oriented toward individuals, groups, voluntary communities, and subcultures rather than nation-states. National-Anarchist Movement is a prototype for such. But in order to develop such a project, we first need to achieve a […]
Left outraged by AOC’s bit role at Democratic convention
Alexandria and Bernie have the distinction of playing the role of Otto and Gregor Strasser to Biden’s Paul von Hindenberg and Kamala’s Fuhrer. By Alex Thompson and Caitlin Oprysko Politico Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez had less time to speak at the Democratic National Convention than a former Republican governor, […]
Pompeo pledges support for Iraq, targets pro-Iran militias
One of these days some gay porn featuring Pompeo and Netanyahu is probably going to turn up on the Internet (sorry for putting that image in everyone’s mind). By Matthew Lee Associated Press WASHINGTON — Secretary of State Mike Pompeo pledged on Wednesday that the Trump administration will […]
Snowden pardon plan draws bipartisan scorn from key defense lawmakers
The Democrat vs Republican thing is just theater intended by the ruling class to hoodwink everyone else. The parties obviously agree on the things that matter, even if they always have the wrong position. By Leo Shane III Military Times The top Republican and Democrat on the House […]
Violent clashes erupt between far-right groups and racial justice protesters in Portland and other cities
By Katie Shepherd and Holly Bailey Washington Post PORTLAND, Ore. — Far-right extremists and continued clashes between Black Lives Matter protesters and police this weekend renewed tensions in Portland, Minneapolis and other cities, pushing the country into its 80th day of consecutive demonstrations in some places. A group […]
What Trump Doesn’t Understand About Anarchists
By Sophie Hayssen Refinery 29 At the peak intensity of nationwide protests against police violence, social media was flooded with videos of officers beating and driving cars into protesters. News outlets questioned whether “outside agitators” had infiltrated the demonstrations and circulated images of defaced and looted storefronts, sparking […]
The Infuriating History of Why Police Unions Have So Much Power
By Samantha Michaels Mother Jones As the year 1990 came to an end, a fight broke out during a New Year’s Eve celebration at the Juke Box Saturday Night bar in downtown Minneapolis. A 21-year-old white student grabbed Michael Sauro from behind. Sauro, an off-duty white police officer […]
DNC Convention Is ‘Decency Porn’ Devoid Of Policy, Reckoning With Obama’s Legacy
“Vote for us because we’re awesome and that guy sucks.” Hannity’s response, while contrived and insincere propaganda of its own from a guy who is just a Israeli-Saudi mouthpiece, is largely accurate in terms of recognizing the substancelessness of the Democraps, the dumbass references to “Bolshevik Bernie” notwithstanding.
Cheney: Sanders, AOC and Biden are advocating the quick sand of socialism
This is interesting even if it’s pathetically tragic. The neocons have the Democratic Party under their control, which they can use to advance liberal imperialism on a general level through the wider set of institutions that comprise the global capitalist empire (UN, NATO, IMF, World Bank, WTO, G20, […]
DNC ROLLS OUT Neocons To Beat Election Drum For Biden
The neocon Democratic Party recolonization effort is now complete. The neocons are now fully in control of both parties (if they weren’t before). They even trotted out George W. Bush’s own Tarik Aziz in the person of Colin Powell. The role of the Democrats is advance a hawkish […]
Stock Market Hits RECORD HIGH As Mega-Companies Destroy Small Business
The upper strata proletariat has been destroyed by outsourcing and the global economy and now the petite bourgeoisie has been destroyed by the pandemic-inspired state-induced depression. All that’s left are the ruling class, professional-managerial class, lower proletariat, and lumpenproletariat.
Trump’s CRINGE Convention Plans Revealed, Abandons Populism
Trump has embraced the FAUX News tactic of attacking everything as “socialism.” Ironically, while it’s fashionable among the chattering classes to compare Trump to Hitler, his supporters are more analogous to Communist voters in Weimar, i.e. traditional working-class folks hit hard economically by the aftermath of WWI and […]
MSNBC LAVISHES Praise On DNC As TV Ratings CRASH
It’s good to see that Americans are tuning out this crap. In addition to their lame politics, MSNBC is also boring as hell. Their commentators are basically the Stepford Wives of neoliberalism and associated nerdboys. At least the Spiro Agnew impersonators at FOX are entertaining in a pro-wrestling […]
Founding Startup Societies
The punk rock anarchist ethos of “do it yourself” very much applies the exercise of “class struggle” in the present world economy. The objective should be to agitate for more and more zones of economic and political autonomy. By Mark Frazier Progress.Org The rapid technological and economic changes […]
The 1950s Economic Golden Age Is a Myth
Regrettably, progressives, social democrats, and Communists are just as “reactionary” and “backward” as anyone on the right. While social conservatives may want to turn black the clock to the social norms of the 1950s, the “left” wants to return to the economic policies of the 1950s (and, apparently, […]
The Rise and Decline of the State
This book explains how traditional nation-states that have their roots in the Treaty of Westphalia and came into full fruition in the 19th era of classical liberal are largely being absorbed into a transnational framework in which other institutions assume a hegemonic position. The “populist-nationalist” movements that have […]
How the Empire Actually Works
This book is not perfect by any means, but it’s the best academic work for explaining how the global capitalist empire actually works. It is important for radicals to avoid both the anti-Eastern propaganda perpetrated by Western elites, and the view that the East is somehow an alternative […]
The New Class War author: How the PMC ruined everything
I agree with much of Lind’s analysis but his solutions seem a bit implausible. He calls for strengthening labor unions and religious institutions, the two institutions that are arguably the most in decline at present. His general economic paradigm amounts to “economic nationalism” (mercantilism), i.e. the standard “let’s […]
Michael Lind – Can Democracy Be Saved from the “Managerial Elite,” & ‘The New Class War’
The discussion of the actual politics of Weimar in this is important. The real backers of the National Socialists were the managerial classes and ideas industries of Weimar, in collusion with sectors of the industrial class and the military, in the same way our educated elites, tech-oligarchs, and […]
The Coming of Neo-Feudalism
Anyone who wants to understand social class in modern America (and the modern West generally) has to read Joel Kotkin, Sam Francis, Michael Lind, Paul Fussell, and David Brooks’ writings on “bourgeois bohemians.” ——————————————— Joel Kotkin’s latest book is now available at Amazon. Our society is being rapidly […]
There’s a culture clash in Roman Catholicism. Guess who’s winning?
It is interesting how the totalitarian humanist ideology is largely replacing mainline Protestantism (like Episcopalianism) as the dominant religion of the WASP upper middle class, and is even finding its way into traditionally “conservative” religious denominations like the Catholic Church, the Southern Baptist Convention, and even non-denominational “low […]
Many causes to recent decline in American religiosity; but U.S. more religious now than at Founding
The founding generation of Americans during the revolutionary period were not especially religious. The leadership was comprised mostly of nominal Anglicans, lukewarm or lapsed adherents of the Reformation churches, deists, Freemasons, and (probably) some closet atheists. A few, like Patrick Henry, were low church pietists associated with the […]
In U.S., Decline of Christianity Continues at Rapid Pace
The United States has always been an unusually religious nation for an advanced industrial society. Other nations with comparable levels of advancement in Western Europe, East Asia, and Oceania are generally far less religious. But that seems to be changing. However, it is a coincidence that totalitarian humanism […]
How the Pandemic Has Changed Us Already
By Joe Pinsker The Atlantic During the past five months, many prognosticators have prognosticated about how the coronavirus pandemic will transform politics, work, travel, education, and other domains. Less sweepingly, but just as powerfully, it will also transform the people who are living through it, rearranging the furniture […]
Systemic Racism & the Data
This is a pretty “liberal” vs “conservative” discussion on race issues. Watch Braver Angels’ July 22 American Public Forum event on the data surrounding Systemic Racism. Featuring Associate Professor of Political Science at Kentucky State University Wilfred Reilly and Assistant Professor of Sociology at Grand Dominion University Roderick […]
The Successor Ideology
This is a must-watch. These fellows discuss how totalitarian humanism is a type of secularized Christian moralism that is primarily rooted in the upper-middle class. The “social justice camp” that Coleman Hughes describes sounds like something out of the “Jesus camp” movie. I remember the days when totalitarian […]
Kamala Harris Hopes You’ll Forget Her Record as a Drug Warrior & Draconian Prosecutor
With Biden and Harris on the ticket, the Democraps have arguably moved to the right of Trump, or are at least in a dead heat with Trump in terms of who is most “far-right.”
Kamala Harris’ Prosecutors Sent This Innocent Man to Prison
How progressive.
Lefties Can’t Play the Politics Game
This guy Vaush, a self-identified anarchist/libertarian socialist, seems to epitomize what I call an “anarcho-Democrat.” This is more or less the left-anarchist/anarcho-social democrat version of “Libertarians for Trump.”
Minnesota AG Keith Ellison Explains Biden Era Divide In Dem Party
Ellison’s comments remind me of what progressives were saying when Bill Clinton was elected in 1992: “We can work with this centrist guy to get all kinds of do-gooder stuff done.” Clinton ended up consolidating the neoliberal “Reagan Revolution,” expanded the Nixon-Reagan-Poppy Bush police state, continued Poppy’s war […]
MSNBC Viewers MELTDOWN At Michael Moore For Telling Truth About Biden
This is a pretty good critique of MSNBC, which is basically a technocratic neoliberal version of the Communist Party.
“One small keystroke for me….”
Genghis Goes Woke
Let’s talk about the not so liberal Democratic National Convention….
As I have said before, we really have three political parties: the neocon/neoliberal party (with two factions, the Pelosi Democrats and McConnell Republicans), the Trumpist party (mostly Trump, his immediate circle of family and friends, and his general base of voters), and the social democratic party (the Bernie/AOC […]
