Ben Shapiro: Don’t Talk About Homelessness Or Infrastructure During Pandemic
The Republican Party ultimately stands for only three things: advancing the class interests of the right-wing of the plutocracy (the old-bourgeoisie and the Sunbelt industries), advancing the war-profiteering of the military-industrial complex, and advancing the expansionist objectives of Israel. Guys like Ben Shapiro and Mark Levin are merely […]

Is Marriage Over?
By Manvir Singh Aeon.Com At 17, John Humphrey Noyes thought a lot about women. An awkward teenager with a gangly neck and slouching shoulders, he fretted over how good looks were the key to success, especially when pursuing women. And he was shy. ‘So unreasonable and excessive is […]
Tom Cotton Deserves No Credit for Getting the Coronavirus Right
One of the nuttiest guys in Congress actually got it at least partially right on COVID-19, not because he’s actually smart, but because he’s a hysterical Sinophobe.

End of “WOKE” & the Politics of PROSPERITY #CANCELLED
Will Coronavirus and Great Depression Two be the end of “wokeness”? I doubt it. “Wokeness” actually increased by an order of magnitude after the Great Recession. I see no evidence that the “culture wars” have subsided in the context of the present crisis. If anything, extremist movements, left […]
Why are Middle-class People so Left Wing?
Historically, totalitarian revolutions have been driven by the left-wing of the middle class during times when the middle-class (or at least segments of the middle class) is rising on a socioeconomic level but has its political ambitions frustrated by deeply entrench elites. I believe this theory explains the […]

What Will Happen When Red States Need Help?

How we can combat coronavirus and political division at the same time (opinion)
By Julia A. Minson CNN If you are like me, you have had several encounters with friends, neighbors and relatives who, in the face of the Covid-19 pandemic, behaved in some way that almost made your blood boil. These could range from general assertions that we are “overreacting,” […]
Even in states hit harder by the coronavirus, views of the outbreak correlate to partisanship
By Philip Bump Washington Post One of the interesting and alarming aspects of the steady spread of the coronavirus across the country is the extent to which views of the pandemic differ by political party. Republicans consistently report less concern about the virus and that they’re taking fewer […]
The pandemic is dividing blue cities from their red states

Partisan reaction to uneven COVID spread

Partisanship is the strongest predictor of coronavirus response
By David Roberts Vox The US is a land divided. Americans have sorted themselves into opposing factions, with different values, sources of authority, and shared understandings.

In states’ coronavirus response, a red/blue divide

Whoopi Goldberg’s outrageous treatment of Bernie on The View
Guinan needs to stick to bartending. It’s rather remarkable that a lame FDR liberal like Bernie is considered too much for the professional celebrities/neoliberal puppets at The View. That Bernie endorsed Hillary in 2016 (as opposed to, say, Jill Stein) is a blight on his record, not a […]
Trump Is A Symptom Of A Larger Problem
Yes. Since 2016, I have maintained that the real reason Trump won the election was that, rhetorically, he was the most “left-wing” (anti-imperialist, anti-capitalist, anti-power elite) of the two candidates, even if he is personally just a carnival barker and has governed largely as a conventional Republican since […]

AOC embraces Megan McCain. Will she follow the standard social democrat to neocon trajectory?
Glenn Greenwald announces show ft Kyle Kulinski, how to balance authoritarian instinct in crisis
Neoliberals Co-opt AOC with Cultural Leftism
The same pattern the US Left has followed since the 1970s. A relevant observation from the comments section: “I never drank the AOC kool aid. 90% of the interest in her derives from the fact that she’s a young woman of color and she’s from NYC, which we’re […]
Woody Guthrie — I Ain’t Got No Home/Old Man Trump by the Missin’ Cousins
Supposedly, Woody Guthrie wrote a song in 1950 where he lyrically attacked his then-landlord, Fred Trump (Donald Trump’s father). Supposedly, the song was discovered a few years ago, and actually recorded by some contemporary musicians like Ani DiFranco and Tom Morello. I have no idea whether this story […]

Coronavirus, Gun Sales, & Self-Defense
Like so many paleconservative types, Tucker Carlson is excellent on gun rights, but horrible on civil libertarian and anti-police state issues generally (e.g. supporting the drug war, opposing weed legalization, opposing “criminal justice reform,” opposing coronavirus-driven prisoner releases, using standard conservative cop-lover rhetoric, etc.). Coronavirus is causing a […]

Ben Shapiro Vs Tucker Carlson | Capitalism & Populism
This video is over a year old, but it’s a good description of the neoliberal vs. populist division that is growing on the US right, just like there is a growing division between neoliberals and social democrats on the US left. The consequences of the Reagan-Bush-Clinton-Bush-Obama neoliberal paradigm […]
A Reminder of Why I am an Anarchist
The current public health/economic crisis is definitely a reminder of why I am an anarchist.

Maybe give a […]

The War within the Democratic Party: The Managerial Elite vs. the New Class?
Anyone who is familiar with my writings knows that I am a vengeful hater of the neocons. However, one thing the neocon godfather Irving Kristol (father of Bill Kristol, of “benevolent global hegemony” scumbaggery fame) may have gotten right is his analysis of what the called the “new […]
The Left Is Angry Over MSNBC Fake News: Call For Resignations And A New News Network
The ongoing falling out between the Left and the neoliberals is a great thing to behold.

The Great Purge: The Deformation of the Conservative Movement

The other authors were all […]
Changing Sources of Power: American Politics in the 1970s
