The Antifa-NATO Axis?

It looks like the battles between the anti-imperialist (or at least anti-Western imperialist) tankieish left and the totalitarian humanist left are heating up, along with the battles between the class reductionist and intersectional sectors of the left, the scientistic and conspiracist sectors, the anti-Zionist and anti-anti-Semitic sectors, the […]

Leftism Against Anarchy

By No-Wing Anarchy, Medium The Bolshevik “betrayal” of anarchists during the Russian Revolution is a commonly known, and almost overly debated instance where anarchism has come into open and bloody conflict with leftism. There is no end to the accusations of murder at Kronstadt, or in Ukraine, and […]

The Factions of the Left?

Actually, there are a lot more than these, particularly when single-issue or identity-driven conflicts are included. I would generally be fine with any of those as long as they are voluntary or at least localized enough where exit costs are low enough to make them quasi-voluntary. Although some […]

The Neocons: Exit Stage Left?

By Matt Purple, The American Conservative Before the current realignment but after the one Karl Rove tried to engineer, there was yet another attempt to realign American politics. A small crew of antiwar Republicans wanted to push the neoconservatives out of the party and maybe even over to […]

U.S. FAR-LEFT GROUPS

This is a fairly interesting report from the Counter-Extremism Project which provides a generally accurate view of the “far-left” in the US. Read the report here.  As a caveat, the Counter Extremism Project is a systemist group associated with former high-ranking government officials. Their objective is to legitimize […]

The false narrative of white supremacists doing mass public shootings: Racial, Gender, Religious and Political views of these killers from 1998 through January 2021

The state, ruling class, and media are trying to spin the narrative that there is a white supremacist insurgency in order to turn the “war on terrorism” inward. Crime Prevention Research Center Entertainment television continually provides a false impression of those who commit mass public shootings and how […]

No Kings, No Plutocrats

Most leftists are actually pretty weak on the state, from Noam “I’d like to see the power of the federal government increased” Chomsky downward. It’s like medieval peasants who thought the king was going to save them from the landlords. Most libertarians are terrible on capitalism: “The state […]

Confessions of a Right-Wing Liberal

Murray Rothbard’s classic article from 1968 outlines perfectly what is wrong with American-style “conservatism” of the Buckleyite/neocon variety. After 53 years, nothing much has changed. By Murray Rothbard Twenty years ago I was an extreme right-wing Republican, a young and lone “Neanderthal” (as the liberals used to call […]

Unity

My advice to the full range of liberal, left, and libertarian opinion would be to take the arguments Lind raises in this seriously unless you want a right-wing guerrilla insurgency developing in the US. By William S. Lind, Traditional Right As  expected, the main theme of President Joe […]

Kick the Puppy S2: E5

Keith & RJ Study claims vaccines saved 37 million lives mostly children over the past two decades, anti-vaxxers are growing, backlash to over-medicalization, the complexity of the immune system, a long history of human poisonings, paranoia and the American tradition, criticisms of scientism, SpaceX Starship SN9 explodes during […]

Edmund Burke Warned Us About the Woke

By Casey Chalk, The American Conservative Burke warned us this might happen. No, not Tom Brady…although the 18th-century Anglo-Irish statesman’s penchant for the ancient and tried would have likely led him to predict that the “GOAT” was capable of another Super Bowl run. Rather, I’m talking about the […]
