“Wild Justice”

From The Anarchist Library. Bob Black spits on his hands, hoists the black flag, and considers slitting throats. Kudos to Luna920 for bringing this to my attention. _______________ Introduction We’ve all heard the phrase “law and order” — as if they go together. The slogan assumes that law […]

So What Are We?

A question for our readers and supporters? What is the best term for the kind of political philosophy we promote here? Terms I’ve used  include anarcho-populism, anarcho-pluralism, anti-state radicalism, anarchism without adjectives, anarchism without hyphens, tribal-anarchism, radical decentralism, anarcho-sovereignism, open-ended national-anarchism, third way/third position anarchism, left-paleocon anarchism, and […]

The Way of Men: An Anarchist Perspective

by R.J. Jacob

This book could not have come at a better time. Jack Donovan’s The Way of Men is a spear through the side of the one world therapeutic tribe. Donovan incorporates his theory of masculinity into a Nietzschean critique of modernity that unveils human nature and screams WAR! in the face of feminists and professional utopians.

Donovan explores the origins of masculinity by looking at the human EEA. Different species must evolve different mechanisms in response to the imposed conditions. Donovan describes human males as a party gang species organized into male dominated gangs whose members compete and cooperate for status, women, and the greater good of the gang. The earliest male humans, comprising the genus…

What Does Ron Paul Want?

By Justin Raimondo This is the question puzzling Paul’s friends, as well as his enemies. A recentannouncement by the campaign that the anti-interventionist Congressman andpresidential candidate is not spending money in the remaining primary states provoked a Drudge headline: “Paul Out.” That is the GOP Establishment’s fondest wish, but the reality is that Paul is far […]

Ron Paul as a prototype for anarchists

I think the Ron Paul movement is evidence of what actually works. He’s obviously the best thing the mainstream libertarians have yet to achieve and that’s because he focuses on issues that affect everyone and that lots of different kinds of people are interested in. He has a […]

Occupy Wall Street Revisited: Who Is Being Occupied By Whom?

Article by Thomas N. Naylor. —————————————————————————————————————————————————— From the very outset I was an enthusiastic supporter of Occupy Wall Street. To me it represented the reawakening of the political left after four decades of uninterrupted slumber.  Maybe the radicalization of America had finally begun.  Americans might soon opt for […]

How the Working Class Vanished from Progressive Politics

Yes! Article by Stuart Bramhall. —————————————————————————————————————————————————– If OWS comes to be seen as a movement run predominantly by and for the working class, it will be the first grassroots movement to do so since the Great Depression. The last major mass movement during the Vietnam War was mainly […]

Libertarian Homesteading Can Restore the Inner Cities

Article by Anthony Gregory. ——————————————————————————————————————————————— In Oakland, California, where I live, urban homesteading – growing food on private land for small-scale trade and consumption – has become so common the city government has backed off a bit. In a rare triumph for sanity and freedom, anachronistic zoning ordinances […]

The Ten Core Demographics of Alternative-Anarchism/Pan-Secessionism

1. The Populist Right: A wide assortment of sub-tendencies including gun rights, white rights, religious rights, men’s rights, father’s rights, family rights, alternative medicine, home schoolers, conspiracists, militias, state’s rights, local sovereignty, pro-life, hard money, libertarian, anti-tax. Eventually more and more from these camps will recognize that they […]

Forty Years in the Wilderness?

For some years  now, I have advocated for the anarchist movement in North America a change in direction from the course it has followed since the 1960s. Essentially, the general flavor of the anarchist milieu is one that expresses the same set of primary values as Marxists, social […]

Organizing the Urban Lumpenproletariat

For some time now, I have argued for an alliance of left-wing anarchism and right-wing populism against the common enemies of imperialism and Big Brother statism. I have argued that the strategic application of such an alliance would be a pan-secessionist movement rooted in the traditions of the […]

Why I am an Anarcho-Pluralist, Part Two

Imagine, for one horribly unpleasant moment, that the anarchist movement (movements?) in North America, in their present form, were to carry out an actual revolution. What kind of social or political system would be the result? The Wikipedia entry on anarchism in the United States lists a number […]

Mock the Vote!

By David Heleniak Jesse Ventura, when he’s not talking about 9-11, makes a lot of sense. Describing the two party system to Larry King, he said, [W]hat you have today is like walking into the grocery store and you go to the soft drink department, and there is […]

For a Revolutionary Right That Out-left’s the Left

What does it mean when the Right is becoming more revolutionary minded than the Left? Nowadays, there are “left-conservatives”, “left-libertarians”, “left-secessionists”, “conservative revolutionaries”, “left-nationalists”, “national-syndicalists”, “national-anarchists”, “national-bolsheviks”, “national-maoists”, “left-populists”, “left-decentralists”, “national-communists” and lots of other labels that defy the left/right stereotype. What does is mean that the official […]

The Second Vermont Republic, the League of the South and the Southern Poverty Law Center

Recently, Thomas Naylor of the Second Vermont Republic issued something of a challenge to the League of the South: http://vermontrepublic.org/to_the_league_of_the_south_from_vermont_with_love Naylor begins: When the Second Vermont Republic, through its sister organization the Middlebury Institute, first began reaching out to other independence movements in November 2006, four such groups […]

Shutting Down the American Police State

Consider these grim statistics: -There are 36,000 paramilitary police raids on private homes in the United States on an annual basis. -The United States has five percent of the world’s population but twenty-five percent of the world’s prisoners. -One in thirty-one American adults is in prison, on probation […]

Why Pan-Secessionism?

Most Americans agree that the political system in the United States is incompetent, corrupt and not likely to be reformed in any meaningful way. More and more Americans are getting fed up with the Tweedle Dee vs. Tweedle Dum so-called “electoral process”. The problem is that while Americans […]

Lessons of the Ron Paul Campaign?

It would appear that Ron Paul’s heroic but quixotic presidential campaign is all but finished. That said, what lessons can be drawn from the Ron Paul experience? To some degree, it would appear that those of us advocating a “third way” beyond left and right have been on […]

Must Anarchists Be Dogmatists?

The first time I ever heard the term “anarchist” was in 1983, when I was a senior in high school. My English Lit. textbook included a unit on the British poet Percy Byshe Shelley and the brief biographical synopsis of Shelley mentioned that he had been the son-in-law […]
