Mark Cuban says he’s ‘keeping the door open’ for presidential run
A spoiler?
A spoiler?
Funny.
Silver lining.
An interesting discussion of how genocides happen. I disagree with some of this, such as the interviewee’s claim that the Trail of Tears was not genocide and his endorsement of Maudlin Albright’s/Samantha Power’s “human rights imperialism,” but it’s a generally a good interview.
Glad to see Glenn has a new show.
Crises always bring out the nuts.
With apologies and respect to Captain Pike.
By Aleksa Burmazovic Asgardia is the world’s first society to be located entirely off-world: despite the impressive concept art that one encounters on the recently created (2016) startup society’s website, its properties in low-earth orbit currently consist of a single breadbox-sized satellite – ASGARDIA-1. “Cloud storage” isn’t quite […]
A good documentary on Nietzsche. The primary weakness that is demonstrated by most anarchists and leftists is their failure to confront Nietzsche’s critique of modern liberal-humanism generally and leftism specifically as forms of secularized theocratic neo-Abrahamism, which is why we find so much zeal among leftists for rooting […]
Krystal and Saagar talk about Joe Biden’s cringe-worthy appearance on the Jimmy Kimmel show.
Do you know how to bake your own bread? Plant and grow a garden? Can your own food? These are essential skills that our ancestors simply took for granted; you had to know how to do these things in order to survive daily life. Today, however, many […]
Bertrand Russell’s classic from 1938 still holds up pretty well in 2020. Russell’s analysis of the nature of power, combined with the insights of the neo-Machiavellians, James Burnham’s managerial revolution theory, and modern elite theorists, provides a very good explanation of how systems work.

Democrats: “We suck so bad we can even make Donald Trump look competent!”
Funny.
Another silver lining. The Gateway Pundit A shutdown of the system would stop or delay new gun sales. The Washington Examiner reports that the National Shooting Sports Foundation said checks surged 300% on Monday, after already hitting historic highs all year. The NSSF statement continued on to say […]
Noam called it back in early February. The entire spectrum of the ruling class circled its wagons against Sanders. Not that Sanders is all that radical. In most countries with a democratic government, Sanders would be barely center-left, perhaps square in the middle in many places. Their recent […]
Imagine that.
From Troy Southgate: “People spend their lives complaining about work and yet when they are presented with an unexpected opportunity to step off the treadmill and spend time alone, or with their families, they descend into an undisciplined army of spoiled brats who have just been sent to […]
By Saladdin Ahmed TELOS There are three reasons to believe that COVID-19 is a communist agent. First, it is universalist; it does not recognize or respect national borders. Second, it is atheist; it has forced cancellations of pilgrimages, along with thousands of other religious rituals. Third, it has […]
As I predicted in 2016, Trump has moved the Republicans to the left of the neoliberals.
Are we moving into a WW1/WW2 situation? “National unity” during a time of crisis with an expansion of the welfare/warfare state?
The Democratic primaries have reaffirmed my longstanding conviction that electoral politics is a joke and a waste of time. The Democrats had literally dozens of candidates, including some fairly interesting ones (Tusli, Bernie, Yang, Williamson, Ojeda, Gravel) and who gets the nomination? Some dude with dementia who has […]
Is Trump going mutualist? By Brett Samuels and Sylvan Lane The Hill President Trump on Wednesday directed the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) to suspend evictions and foreclosures through April as Americans grapple with the fallout of the coronavirus. “The Department of Housing and Urban Development […]
By Kelley Beaucar Vhalos The American Conservative s the number of coronavirus infections topped 3,100 in the U.S. as of Sunday afternoon, including 63 deaths, major cities appear to be considering lock-downs as we have seen in Europe—everything shut down by the government—including borders—except for essential grocery stores […]
The Left’s attempted assault on neoliberalism has completely failed. Now, it’s just a matter of “Anybody But Trump” and “Vote Blue, No Matter Who.” Because that’s worked so well before. Andrew Yang has endorsed Joe Biden, becoming the latest former 2020 Democratic presidential candidate to throw their support […]
No tribe left behind. By Amber Roberts VICE Otherkin are people who identify as partially or entirely nonhuman. A dragon, a lion, a fox—you name it—there is probably someone out there who feels like they are more these things than they are human. The otherkin community can be […]
It’s time to stop arguing about ideologies, abstractions, and partisan affiliations, and start building the infrastructure of the future. What will the post-globalization world actually look like?
I’m neither a Bernie fan nor a Berniephobe. I tend to think his election to the presidency would be good for the cause of pan-anarchism/pan-secessionism because it would result in an emboldened far left, resentful far right, and demoralized establishment center, resulting in increased fractiousness. I suspect a […]
By Nicky Reid aka Comrade Hermit Exile in Happy Valley America is a country that both loves and hates its conspiracy theories. On the one hand, our popular culture is lousy with them, from cinema to the president’s goddamn Twitter account. On the other hand, we host an […]
Aleksey Bashtavenko Academic Comosition This was quite a captivating performance. Regardless of whether you support Brexit or decry it, it’s hard not to identify with the mobilizing passions Nigel Farage appeals to. While it remains an open question whether the UK is better off with the EU or without […]
