The Democrats face the danger of losing working to middle-class moderate voters to the Republicans as the Democrats focus on the battle between corporate neoliberals and the cultural left. The Republicans’ best bet from a strategic perspective would be to adopt a lot of economic populist rhetoric as […]
Hmm.
Not everything labeled as “extremism” is a good idea, but as Caitlin Johnstone says, “pro-system” views are never considered to be “extremism.” By Marc Fisher, Washington Post The first images of “The Last Battle” seem designed to rile people on the conservative side of the culture wars: public […]

An interview with anarcho-fed Alexander Reid-Ross, in case anyone is in the mood for some comedy.

By Lenore Skenazy, Reason When I opened my Yahoo! News page today, I found a list of stories including this one: “Mom Issues Terrifying Warning After Being ‘Hunted’ at Target: ‘I Will Never Forget.’” Many readers will never forget, either—and that is the problem. There is not a […]

By Joel Kotkin The Democratic Party has always been a loose confederation of outsiders — poor farmers, union members, populists, European immigrants and southern segregationists. As the actor Will Rogers said in 1924: “I am not a member of any organised political party. I am a Democrat.” Yet […]
I saw one of the Hoffman/Rubin debates in the 80s. Rubin was fairly prophetic in predicting a fusion of the cultural left with the business and political class, though Hoffman was right that the “enlightenment” of the boomers was actually pretty benighted. In the 1960s, the former New […]
An interesting assessment of the Chauvin case from an anti-Chauvin, but pro-cop, “conservative” perspective.

To eliminate any […]
I’ve been using the Shia/Sunni analogy for around 15 years. It’s interesting that it is now making its way into mainstream discourse. What I find most regrettable is that most anarchists and libertarians, who should be standing apart from this stuff, seem to not only buy into but […]

Saagar Enjeti explains why the Russian bounties story was pushed by MSM with little evidence.
By Robert Stilson, The American Conservative Conservatives are rightly vexed by “woke capitalism,” exasperated at the ways in which big American corporations are increasingly weighing in on sociopolitical issues—invariably, it seems, in favor of the progressive left. Certainly, many businesses are under pressure to do so. Sometimes that […]
By Peter R. Quinones As an adult, and more importantly, acting like one (for the most part), I am very quick to apologize for and acknowledge my mistakes. When you are as “extremely online” as I am, you’re bound to make a few, and some of those may […]
By Krystal Ball and Kyle Kulinski Author and longtime Steelworkers labor lawyer Dan Kovalik joined us on KK&F this week to talk cancel culture. Why does cancel culture matter? When should people be “cancelled,” and when is cancellation harmful to the left’s political goals? You’ll find these questions, […]
By Matt Taibbi After hyping a fake story for a year, cable’s leading anchor doesn’t blink and moves on to the next fable. If you’d told me back in 2005, when I first met Rachel Maddow, that the lightning-quick, ultra-smooth broadcaster would someday supplant Bill O’Reilly as the […]
The left-wing of the capitalist class circles the wagons. By Katabella Roberts, Epoch Times Facebook and Instagram are censoring users from sharing a New York Post report regarding the luxury homes purchased by Black Lives Matter Co-founder, Patrisse Khan-Cullors, in predominantly white neighborhoods. The article was published on April 10 […]
By Tom Woods Well, I just recorded rather a memorable episode of the Tom Woods Show. Before we started recording, I joked with my guest — Stanford’s Jay Bhattacharya, one of the three authors of the heroic Great Barrington Declaration — about what it’s like suddenly having fans. He said the […]
