A recent interview I did with a Shia magazine. ShiaFollowers.Com An American political analyst has said that “the rejection of the position of the holy men undermines the structure of religious authority in general, which in turn allows extremist sects promoting twisted interpretations of Islam to proliferate.” “The […]

Meet the new boss, same as the old boss. Here’s the money quote: “Marx proposed that a society’s morality serves the interests of its ruling class, while purporting to be universal. Capitalist societies, he argued, have a morality centred around classical liberal principles such as the sanctity of […]

How we got into this mess. LibCom.Org The Five Points district of lower Manhattan, painted by George Catlin in 1827. New York’s first free Black settlement, Five Points was also a destination for Irish immigrants and a focal point for the stormy collective life of the new working […]
Baraka was one of the great American black nationalist writers of the 20th century. His point is this statement is what I have always said as well. Merely promoting demographic conflict helps rather than hurts the system. Look at how easily the system has coopted anti-racism, feminism, gay […]
A recent interview I did with Tasnim. The following is the full text of the interview. Available here. Tasnim: Recently, Saudi troops fatally shot a youth during operations carried out in the kingdom’s Shiite-populated Qatif region in Eastern Province. He was killed while driving in his car in […]
The source for this extended essay is somewhat dubious, but its content is interesting nevertheless. This kind of writing seems to have become increasingly common in some far left circles. A serious rivalry seems to be brewing between the “anti-imperialist” and “anti-fascist” camps among the far left. The […]
One thing about European New Right philosophy that I think is right is that America is a completely separate culture and civilization from Europe even if it is a derivative in many ways. Interestingly, North American New Righters try to be more European culturally and intellectually even if […]
Press TV. Listen here. It is no surprise that US President Donald Trump has signed an executive order to keep open the Guantanamo Bay prison, says a political analyst in Virginia, adding that Guantanamo is being used to go around US torture laws. “This is entirely consistent with what he […]
This guy does a better job playing me than I do playing myself. Although I beg to differ on a few points.
I have no way of personally verifying whether the claims made in this piece are true or not, but multiple sources from alt-right circles have said much of what is being said here is correct, with a couple of exceptions From Reddit So this is so something I’ve […]
I don’t share this guy’s politics, but his criticisms of the direction the Alt-Right has taken seems fairly accurate. Sorry, but I just don’t see these guys overthrowing any states, ruling classes, or empires. Instead, they’ve become the mirror image of the Left. If the Left could be […]
One of the most successful scams in history is the way that states and ruling classes have been able to persuade ordinary people that their own overlords are their friends rather than their enemies. The truth is that if you’re an American, the American state is your worst […]
Swithun Dobson examines the nature of the British economy in the face of its constant interference by the UK government and the Bank of England.
Duncan Whitmore on how economic decentralisation contributes towards economic prosperity.
Though ultimately about the future, this will also be a speech that dwells on the past. The first past event that I wish to discuss is what happened in June 2017. When I stood down as Director of the Libertarian Alliance, I was asked if I had taken […]
The political philosophy of Niccolò Machiavelli does not appear to be a pressing problem. Yet, it is with a sense of urgency that I speak to you today. The reinterpretation, and actually, the misinterpretation of this sixteenth-century writer has reached such a level of absurdity in the academia […]
We are, I believe, at a turning point in history. I see a glimmer, the tiniest wee glimmer, of the ‘End of Socialism’. So what is socialism? At its core, it’s a religion of theft. And its God is ‘The State’. So what’s ‘The State’? Well, the state […]
George Pickering walks through the lessons he’s learned from the Mises Institute, in Auburn, Alabama, and how we can apply them to help Mises UK thrive in the future, especially in comparison to organisations such as the Adam Smith Institute, and the Cato Institute.
Mikhail Svetov, a founding member of the Libertarian Party of Russia, speaks about being in opposition to Vladimir Putin.
I disagree with certain things that are said in this, but it’s a very interesting discussion. Preston Martin interviews Matthew VanDyke and Mikhail Svetov about foreign policy.
A new book by a scholar of the American right-wing examines the Alt-Right. This is the best and most comprehensive work on the Alt-Right that has been published to date. Available from Amazon. A number of reviews are currently available from mainstream as well as libertarian, far right […]
A great interview of Gary Chartier by Tom Woods. Listen here. I can’t recommend Gary’s book more highly. It’s available at Amazon. These classical liberal class theorists along with the early anarchists and “libertarian socialists” are essential reading for anyone who wants to understand how modern state-capitalism developed […]
Isn’t it interesting that the two greatest allies of the US are an ethno-supremacist state and a Bronze Age theocracy? By Andrew Bacevich The American Conservative In the long arc of history, while regimes come and go, civilizations endure. Bet on the former against the latter, and you’re […]
“Neocon think tanks” are merely organizations that develop the “policy” programs that serve the interests of the state. By Jon Wight Ron Paul Institute for Prosperity The latest salvo in the ongoing attempt to de-legitimize and demonize Russia-based media has arrived with a directive from the US Justice […]
Efforts by the Empire to turn Iran into a wrecked nation like Iraq, Libya, and Syria have thus far failed. By Eric Margolis Ron Paul Institute for Peace and Prosperity Listen to the state-“guided” US media this past week and you’d believe a series of spontaneous anti-government protests […]
The great thing about the Obama and Trump administrations is that they have proven that supposed “maverick” heads of state are no different than ordinary dynastic centrist politicians like the Bushes and the Clintons. US foreign policy and economic policy reflects the general consensus of the dominant factions […]
Like the Obama regime, the Trump regime is turning out to be a bunch of neocons after all. There is nothing that the Rome on the Potomac hates more than independent nations who defy the Empire. The US Empire would rather liquidate Syria into a failed state like […]
Like Sean, I have some level of respect for Peter Tatchell. However, these troubling statements of his indicate what I have always said, i.e. that any ideological system, no matter how much it may seem to represent “good causes,” can be twisted towards state-centric and authoritarian ends. Additionally, […]
Duncan Whitmore argues that US imperialism in the Middle East is about maintaining the hegemony of the petrodollar, countering the influence of Russia and China, and advancing the interests of Israel and Saudi Arabia. To all of that I would add maintaining hegemony over the oil trade by […]
The Never Trumpers need not have worried. As I have always said, the US President is merely a celebrity-administrator whose only genuine function is to preside over the implementation of policies that reflect the general consensus of the dominant factions of the elite. IT DOES NOT MATTER WHO […]
This is great news in that it really does place the general public at odds with the ruling class. One of the most important and successful political movements in US history was the anti-Vietnam War/anti-draft movement of the 1960s and 1970s. The long range effect of the movement […]
By Chris Weller Business Insider Gurgaon, India is a city where normal functions of a local government do not apply — because there is hardly any government at all. Instead, private corporations dominate the city, offering sewage removal systems, firefighting services, health care, and education. “The interesting thing about Gurgaon is […]
By William S. Lind Traditional Right One of the iron laws of warfare is that a higher level dominates a lower. You can be brilliant tactically, but if you are defeated operationally, you lose. You can win tactically and operationally, but if you get beaten strategically, you lose. […]
Knew some of you would appreciate this. Enjoy. —– Editor’s note: I couldn’t find a non downloadable link to the Walter Kaufmann translation of Nietzsche’s “Why I Am So Wise” anywhere online, which is weird given that Nietzsche’s most well known quote belongs to this text. To my knowledge, this […]
By Derrick Broze The Activist Post What will it take for Trump supporters to admit they were duped like Obama supporters before them? One of the most surprising (and disappointing) effects of the Trump presidency has been the shift of certain “independent” and ” alternative” media outlets from […]
Press TV. Listen here. US President Donald Trump’s administration represents a tradition of “xenophobic isolationism” which is different from conventional GOP foreign policy, and may curb US imperialism, says a political analyst from Virginia. “We have this isolationist tradition that is very xenophobic in the sense that we […]
A former military officer weighs in. By Zack Sorenson Libertarian Institute A recent Tom Woods podcast featured a debate about whether the free market can provide for national defense. Arguing that libertarian society can offer defense “services”, Bob Murphy relies on the idea of insurance paying the costs […]
A specialist on Japanese military history weighs in on the Lewis-Murphy debate on private defense services.

Soon there will be articles in the press discussing the serious and imminent dangers posed by African-American white supremacists. “Clayton Bigsby is not just a fictional character!” By Gabriela Resto-Montero Mic White nationalists, neo-Nazis and members of the alt-right exchange insults with counterprotesters as they enter Emancipation […]
Prominent neocon Max Boot moves leftward. In the early 2000s, I predicted that eventually “conservatism” in the USA would look like today’s Democratic Party, and that “liberalism” would look like the present academic left/SJWs. This seems to be the direction in which things are increasingly heading. Boot says […]
An interesting profile of Alain De Benoist. By J. Lester Feder and Pierre Buet Buzzfeed PARIS — The man the alt-right claims as its spiritual father is a 74-year-old who lives with four cats in a Paris apartment around the corner from a Creole restaurant, a West African […]
This would be comical if it wasn’t so pathetic. A coalition of Republican luminaries admits that the police state and its related features are actually a problem. The list of signatories to this group’s manifesto includes many who were involved in creating the police state in the first […]
By A. Barton Hinkle Reason That dull roar you heard a few days ago? It came from the countless gasps of horror when The Washington Post reported that the Centers for Disease Control had discouraged the use of certain words. According to The Post, policy analysts were told […]
The problem I see with the line of argumentation that’s being made in this piece is the implicit assumption that because right-wing authoritarians actually exist (duh?) and that many representatives of the centrist establishment are scumbags (duh?), that left-wing authoritarianism does not exist, or is somehow not problematic.
