Former Pat Buchanan Adviser Prepares Third Party Vessel For Donald Trump
Meanwhile, the neocons are planning a third party strategy of their own. If either of these two third party schemes were to become a permanent reality, it would essentially render the Red Tribe incapable of gaining a national electoral majority, which would ensure permanent Blue Tribe dominance. However, […]
Why Libertarians Should Champion Social Freedom
The case for liberaltarianism. One of the great benefits of pan-anarchism, pan-secessionism, and pan-decentralism is that many different approaches to social organization can be accommodated. By Jerry Taylor Niskanen Center My argument last week about why freedom is advanced by preventing private racial discrimination created a bit of […]

The Next Best Thing?
This was one of my most popular recent posts on social media with favorable comments coming from leftists, libertarians, conservatives, fascists, anarchists, national-anarchists, and alt rightists alike. “I’m all for protesting against politicians. Let the Left protest Trump and let the Right protest Sanders. I’d love to see […]

My recent appearance on Alt Right. Listen here.

Super Tuesday and the battle for evangelicals
Trump is apparently splintering the televangelist sector as well. Maybe the conspiracy theorists who say the Trump campaign is plot by Democrats to undermine the GOP and get Hillary elected are correct, lol. By Amy Sullivan and John Ward Yahoo.Com To the astonishment of his rivals and the […]
Bernie Sanders Turnout: Young Voters Say They Back Sanders But Don’t Show Up to Vote for Him
Maybe”young voters” understand that while Sanders may be the least bad alternative, the whole show is a farce and don’t want to be bothered with this crap, and prefer to do something productive instead like go to a rave party. That a self-avowed socialist is a credible presidential […]
The Lion and the Sheep: Why they hate Trump
By Justin Raimondo Antiwar.Com On June 14, 1918, a nineteen year old Italian soldier by the name of Bernardo Vicario was ordered by his commander, Carl Rigoli, to carry out a curious task. Outnumbered and outgunned, the Italian forces would soon be hit with a furious bombardment that […]
Super Tuesday Funeral: Neoconservatism, An Obituary
Whoever guessed a (probably) mentally unstable billionaire plutocrat would be the one to take down the neocons? By Justin Raimondo Antiwar.Com March 1, 2016, will go down in history as the day the incubus of neoconservatism was banished from the Republican party – and, in effect, destroyed as […]
Veteran “Movement Conservative” Says Trump is Destroying the GOP
If Donald Trump is able to single-handedly undermine both neoconservatism and “movement conservatism,” and subsequently cause the GOP to go down in flames in a general election, he will have performed a valuable service. The right-wing will then have nowhere to go other than to a more radical […]
National poll: Clinton, Sanders both top Trump
If this poll is at all accurate it would seem to confirm what I’ve been saying for a while, i.e. that the US has leaped sharply leftward over the past decade, as evidenced by the apparent fact that a self-proclaimed socialist or a woman who personifies 70s feminism […]
Mr. Parrott, Tear Down this Wall
I don’t personally have a horse in this race as I am neither a Christian nor a white nationalist, or even a rightist in any conventional sense, but as one interested in ideologies I think this would still make for an interesting debate. By Brock Bellerive In Praise […]

San Diego Banishes References to “Founding Fathers”
This article from World Nut Daily raises an interesting question. It would appear that in regions of the U.S. where the Blue Tribe is especially dominant, there is an effort to fully eradicate references to the traditional American past. Even in the conservative South, there have efforts to […]
Two Flavors of Tyranny: Red? Or Brown?
This article by Jeffrey Tucker is a similar to this piece I did about a decade ago. By Jeffrey Tucker Foundation of Economic Education Maybe you have noticed the strangely implausible similarities between the cobbled-together platforms of Bernie Sanders and Donald Trump. On the surface, they represent opposite […]
In U.S., New Record 43% Are Political Independents
Are the growing ranks of independents the future demographic base of the Grey Tribe? By Jeffrey Jones Gallup.Com Record 43% of Americans are political independents Democrats maintain edge among those with a party preference Democratic advantage smaller in 2014 than in 2013 PRINCETON, N.J. — An average 43% […]
Sanders and Trump in Very Late Capitalism
This is an interesting piece from Scott McConnell. While Team Red and Team Blue are still at each others’ throats, both are increasingly divided internally along class lines, and the insurgents are gaining. By Scott McConnell The American Conservative goldenalcoff / Flickr It has been snowing since Monday morning, […]
The Libertarian Moment That Never Was
I’ve always argue that the last thing libertarians who want to achieve political success should ever do is position themselves as just another branch of “free market conservatives” preaching bourgeois economics. The failure Rand Paul indicates that, for better or worse, I was probably right. Case in point: […]
Why Socialists Can’t Wait for Bernie to Lose
What actual socialists think of New Dealer Bernie Sanders. Bill Scher Politico.Com erhaps the most astonishing aspect of the 2016 presidential race is that Bernie Sanders, somehow, has made “socialism” a safe word in American politics. Nearly 100 years ago Socialist presidential candidate Eugene Debs had to campaign […]
The End of Rand Paul…and Libertarian Populism?
Richard Spencer performs an interesting and (probably) correct autopsy on the mainstream libertarian movement now that what Ron Paul got rolling has been eclipsed by Donald Trump and Bernie Sanders. By Richard Spencer Radix Journal

Left and right should stop demonizing people they don’t understand
A must read. By Andrew Walker Peruse your Facebook or Twitter feed over the last couple of days and you’ll probably find a liberal friend or two snickering about “#YallQaeda.” Dig a little deeper and you’ll even find people muttering about domestic terrorism, sedition, and the need to […]
Is a Split in U.S. Liberalism Emerging? (and a side note on Rand Paul)
Everyone is talking about the split that has emerged among the Repugnicans between the neoconservative and corporatist elites and the populist-nationalist “base.” But it appears an interesting split is emerging among Democraps as well. These two articles by Matt Fortney on his recent visits to a Sanders rally […]
Donald Trump is the least favorably viewed presidential candidate since at least 1992
This latest poll from Gallup is consistent with what one would expect given the prevailing demographic, generational, cultural, economic and partisan trends in the wider society, as this recent article by Peter Beinart indicates. Contrary to the hysteria of the Left, Donald Trump is not ushering in a […]
Augustus Invictus’ Letter to the People of Europe

Anarchist Shawn Wilbur on the Malheur refuge occupation
I don’t personally have a dog in this fight. I sympathize with anyone who is in revolt against the U.S. federal system, left, right, or center. Other than that, it’s none of my business how Oregonians organize their own economy or approach to ecological issues. Here’s another piece […]
Why America Is Moving Left
This article by Peter Beinart confirms what I’ve been saying for some years now. Beinart’s argument is consistent with just about every demographic, cultural, generational, economic, and partisan trend.

Has Trump Killed the GOP?
Hopefully. Politico.Com Nothing like Donald Trump has ever hit a major American political party: A blow-dried celebrity gleefully smashing one modern Republican certainty after the other.

The Left and the Right in Thinking, Personality, and Politics
An interesting piece by William Domhoff explaining the differences between the Left and the Right, many of which, following the insights of Vilfredo Pareto, appear to be psychological in nature. By G. William Domhoff The aim of this essay is to provide a big-picture canvas of the wider […]
Ford Foundation-Funded “Anarchist” Embraces Totalitarian Humanism Against Oregon Dissidents
Says supposed “anarchist” Spencer Sunshine: “The movement’s beliefs are a grab bag of toxic politics which commonly include: opposition to any restrictions on gun ownership; anti-immigrant xenophobia and Islamophobia; unrestricted use of private and public land; legal strategies of right-wing decentralization; a commitment to completely unregulated capitalism; various […]
Chomsky: I’d ‘absolutely’ vote for Hillary Clinton
There are many things that I admire about Noam Chomsky, but this is absolute crap. That this man is considered the world’s leading exponent of left-anarchism is pathetic. If someone of his stature had spend his career promoting actual libertarian socialism and anti-state radicalism rather than Keynesian liberal […]

Right-Wing Dissenters from American Conservatism

“Hitler’s Klanarchist”
This is an old article from a 1987 edition of the Detroit-based anarchist magazine Fifth Estate.

Sorry, Folks, But Donald Trump and Bernie Sanders Are Not Revolutionaries
It is understandable that Donald Trump and Bernie Sanders have been able to garner a tremendous amount of support among many who are inclined to think ill of the system (which is rapidly becoming a majority of the U.S. population). Both men are a refreshing alternative to the […]
“Conservatives” against Trump
This is beautiful. The entire array of the neoconservative/”movement conservative”/Republican alliance is squirming over Trump, which means they obviously think he’s a genuine threat to their hegemony on the American “right.” The best possible scenario that can come out of the Trump candidacy would be for the GOP […]

A Trotskyite Turned Anarcho-Communist Tells of His Ideologial Journey
Interesting political autobiography from a somewhat leading theorist of left-anarchism. There’s really nothing in here that’s incompatible with the ATS program, except for the idea that his outlook does not need to be universalized. By Wayne Price The Anarchist Library I came to this set of ideas by […]
