This interview is from 2016 but it’s highly relevant to what is going on now. Press TV. Listen here. The US is seeking to further escalate the years-long conflict in Syria through its so-called “Plan B,” in a bid to remove Syrian President Bashar al-Assad from power as […]
This looks to be an interesting new book from a leading antifascist writer (and critic of yours truly). A few of the comments in the description of this book highlight the basis of the ongoing conflict between myself and the anarcho-left/antifa milieu. Disloyalty to the state is a […]
An interesting article from the antifascist side describing the growing split between the anti-imperialist and anti-fascist factions of the Left. By Charles Davis NewPol.Com “An Orwellian destruction of meaning and words — so many absurdities; absurdities stacked on absurdities,” Alexander Reid Ross told me. Fox News had just […]
Thus far, Tucker Carlson has been, to my knowledge, the only mainstream media figure to challenge the System’s narrative on Syria. It’s interesting how the Republican Senator being interviewed said, “If you care about Israel…” the first time he opened his mouth. What if you don’t care about […]
I agree with the author of this article that there’s likely no compromise in the Red/Blue tribal civil war, and that it will likely the Blue tribe that wins with the US increasingly becoming a one-party state under the Democrats. Although I don’t share his optimism about the […]
It’s interesting to see various far left tendencies coming out and saying what I have been saying about the Western Left for years. “Four of the most prominent pseudo-left websites—Jacobin magazine, which is closely connected to the Democratic Socialists of America; Socialist Worker, the online newspaper of the […]

Absolutely correct. Ultimately, the battle is not between East and West, which merely represent different wings of the international elite. Nor it is about Democrats and Republicans, which merely represent different wings of the domestic elite. Nor is it about the “far left” or the “far right,” both […]
It is interesting how the state always seeks to capitalize on whatever moral panics are going on at the present time. The biggest moral panics at present are arguably illegal immigration (for the Red Tribe), guns (for the Blue Tribe), opioids and “sex trafficking” (for both tribes). Immigrants […]
By Danny Haiphong Black Agenda Report Independent Journalist Corner: A Conversation with Randi Nord “Anti-imperialism to me means supporting nations in their struggle against my government’s violent and exploitative influence.” This week I spoke with Randi Nord.

Glad to see someone actually notices this. By Zaid Jilani The Intercept n 2004, then-Senator Barack Obama wowed the country with an address at the Democratic National Convention designed to unite the country and tear down partisan divides. “Now even as we speak, there are those who are […]
Some interesting observations from Troy Southgate on why the Left fails through co-optation, and why the Western world is drifting leftward culturally even as state-capitalism is tightening its grip. “The concluding paragraph in ‘Cultures of Post-War British Fascism’ (Routledge, 2015), by John E. Richardson of Loughborough University, in […]
By Aleksey Bashtavenko Academic Composition Republicans and Democrats disagree about the role that the government should play in providing social services. The former insists that it should be smaller and intervene less in the economy. In contradistinction, the latter maintains that the public interest would be better served […]
From a leftist who learned the hard way. I would actually argue that all modern political philosophy is leftist, at least from John Locke onward. So if you’re not a throne and altar traditionalist, a religious theocrat, or a revolutionary rightist (fascist, national socialist), then you’re a leftist. […]
A self-managed, libertarian penal system? That sounds like something right out of the ARV-ATS program. By Jo Griffin In a country where jails are seen as ticking timebombs, a system of self-rule among inmates has proved a striking success Renato Da Silva Junior was convicted of homicide five […]

My assessment of the Trump presidency thus far. By Keith Preston When Donald Trump’s seemingly maverick presidential campaign began to accelerate in 2016, both the Left and Right in domestic U.S. politics began to formulate predictable reactions almost on cue. Virtually the entire spectrum of the American right-wing, […]
Press TV. Listen here. The new shift in US policy in Syria was influenced by President Donald Trump’s so-called America First policy that he has advocated since coming to office, says a political analyst. Following Trump’s election, “America First” has become the official foreign policy doctrine of his […]
This is more or less what I was saying 15 years ago in response to neocon hegemony in the US. At the time there was growing dissident right that was opposed to the imperialist objectives of the neocons including paleoconservatives (the so-called “unpatriotic conservatives,” as uber-neocon David Frum […]

An interesting interview with a leading Antifa theorist. What is most interesting about this interview is that this guy admits that he does not define “fascism” in terms of traditional totalitarianism. He specifically states that totalitarianism is not the definitive characteristic of what he calls “fascism,” and that […]
I am inclined towards the view that Trumpism will result in a huge backlash from the Left, unless the Republicans are able to solve their rising demographic, cultural, and generational problems. By Aida Chavez The Intercept cliché that each faction within each party believes that victory would be […]
I suspect Trump and Sessions’ latest efforts to throw a bone to their redneck “base” will likely fail, and potentially backfire given that the general trend is toward liberalization of both drug and criminal justice police. By Matt Ford The New Republic In a speech Monday in Manchester, […]

Much ado has been made in the centrist liberal press regarding the supposed decline of liberal democracy and the rise of supposed nationalist strongmen such as Trump, Putin, Duterte, Modi, Erdogan, Xi (who recently declared himself president for life) or, after the recent elections in Italy, Salvini.

An excellent analysis based on a serious understanding of how modern liberal-democratic corporate-public administration states actually work.

In many ways, Trump is turning out like I hoped he would. It’s good to have a guy who acts like a total asshole as head of state, because it’s more in keeping with the character of the state. Trump acts and sounds like a New York mafia […]
