History is not an uninterrupted natural development. Again and again development has stopped in one particular territory only to emerge somewhere else. Egypt, the Near East, the Mediterranean shores and Central Europe have all in turn been centers of historical development. But every time the pattern has been […]
Paul Craig Roberts discusses the American police state. Considering the data, one might conclude that the police are a greater danger to the public than are criminals. Indeed, the trauma from police assault can be worse than from assault by criminals. The public thinks the police are there […]
RJ from the Las Vegas N-A group has put together a wonderful new propaganda film for ARV/ATS. View it in full on Youtube. And be sure to subscribe to RJ’s video channel as well. His work features much ARV/ATS related material.
Said Murray Rothbard of what the New Left had become at the end of the 1960s: To contemplate America in the grip of the Weathermen or Women’s Lib is to envision a truly nightmare world. Not only does Dick Nixon shine in comparison; I would venture to predict […]
Kirkpatrick Sale praises Bakunin and Sheldon Richman discusses “free-market anti-capitalism.” Jesse Walker weighs in at Reason. It’s looks like I was somewhat ahead of my time in suggesting that an appropriate audience for anarchist ideas in 21st century America might be the forces of right-wing populism or small […]
This is a hilarious take down of the PC hypocrites. Read the whole thing at Counter-Currents. The main proponents of multiculturalism as a means of enrichment are usually leftist college professors and other pundits. They speak of culture, but the majority of them actually know very little about […]
President Carter named in $5 million lawsuit over his “Palestine” book
An ominous example of what happens when a revolution goes awry. Watch it here. Read the timeline of events on Wikipedia. Some of the more obvious lessons of the failed Iranian revolution: 1. a revolution must have intelligent and competent leadership. 2. counter-institutional structures capable of filling a […]
A discussion of the mutualist/Proudhonian theory of property rights from Shawn Wilbur’s blog. This is actually an issue that I’m personally agnostic on. I think a case can be made for this position (generally) but I have some reservations about it as well, certainly enough reservations to prevent […]
Gerald Celente thinks so.
by Justin Raimondo http://original.antiwar.com/justin/2011/02/01/egypt-battle-of-the-narratives/ From from showing that the Egyptian uprising is a CIA plot to get rid of a longtime client, the cable shows the complete incompetence and moral blindness of the Obama administration and the US diplomatic corps in general. Meeting with a few members of […]
Read about it here. (hat tip to Miles Joyner)
WOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The latest candidate for the Darwin award. We see some pretty bizarre lawsuits at times around here, but Consumerist points us to one that takes bizarre lawsuits to a new level — involving a guy suing an escort firm for almost getting him arrested, even though the potential […]
Two, three, many Joseph Sobrans would likely lead to a serious influx of former conservatives into our camp. He briefly ran for Vice President of the United States on the Constitution Party ticket in 2000, soon finding out that it was against the law to make a living […]
From Uhuru News: The question is whether the resistance of the African community will continue to be unorganized and isolated or if it will become organized to overturn the occupation that it responds to. InPDUM says that it must be organized! It is with organization that we gain […]
Walter Williams explains why. What needs to be done is not rocket science. Our black ancestors, just two, three, four generations out of slavery, would not have tolerated school behavior that’s all but routine today. The fact that the behavior of many black students has become acceptable and […]
Jaenelle Antas on the hypocrisy of the chattering classes. Historically, the multiculturalist experiment has failed everywhere. It leads to deep division and conflict. In the West, the problem will never be solved as long as we have an establishment that keeps pretending that we can all get along, […]
Kevin Carson explains why. In yet another SWAT drug raid on the wrong house, as reported by Radley Balko (“Another Isolated Incident,” Reason, Jan. 13), the uniformed thugs pulled the father (David McKay) outside in his underwear, pointed a gun at the 13-year-old daughter and — standard operating […]
Kevin Carson on the greatest lie American political class. American foreign policy is aimed at guaranteeing American corporations a supply of “safe, reliable and affordable” fuel from the Persian Gulf and Caspian Sea oil basins. It’s aimed at making sure foreign governments recognize and enforce the “intellectual property” […]
Anarcho-communism suburban family style. Watch the video.
Check out the RJWeapon video channel. There’s some great stuff on this.
Because they’re hungry. See this very good analysis from Richard Spencer. As David Hacket Fischer demonstrated in his monumental work The Great Wave (1996), commodity-price spikes—and related governmental interventions—regularly coincide with political violence and “regime change.” The 18th century, for instance, was an era of higher prices and […]

by Sheldon Richman http://www.fff.org/comment/com1101o.asp What is American politics coming to? I just watched a joint interview with Ralph Nader and Rep. Ron Paul — and they were mostly on the same side! Nader has spent his life promoting government intervention in the economy. Paul has spent his life […]
Raimondo reflects on the events transpiring in the Middle East. The revolutionary wave now sweeping the world will not exempt America, in spite of the myth of “American exceptionalism.” We cannot and will not be excepted from the iron laws of economics, which mandate that you can’t consume […]
Analysis by civil liberties attorney John Whitehead. Most Americans have been lulled into thinking that the pressing issues are voting in the next election or repealing health care. This is largely due to the media hoopla over the Tea Party, the recent elections and the health care law, […]
An Irish Anarcho-Syndicalist shares his impression of the left-wing anarchist movement in North America. See the interview here. What he describes is pretty much the same thing that I observed during my time in that movement during the 80s. Some highlights with my comments: In total I spoke […]
Jack Ross has some interesting commentaries on the state of affairs in the Middle East at The American Conservative.

Murray Rothbard’s classic. Twenty years ago I was an extreme right-wing Republican, a young and lone “Neanderthal” (as the liberals used to call us) who believed, as one friend pungently put it, that “Senator Taft had sold out to the socialists.” Today, I am most likely to be […]
Now, this really is something I thought I’d never see.
The youth are the future. A statistic from PPP that got little play from liberal commentaries showed that American youths — not the tea parties — are more inclined to think of violence against the US government as acceptable. A full 17 percent of those ages 18-29 said […]
by Andrew Yeoman http://www.bayareanationalanarchists.com/?p=273 “There is a distinction to be made between a principled anti-Zionism, and legitimate critique of Jewish influence, political & economic power, and the Judeo-Obsessiveness of many ‘Rightists’ and Nationalists who trace everything and anything back to the Great Jewish Conspiracy, unbroken and relentless, going […]
I’m not one who buys into the FOX News conspiracy theory about how Obama is a Marxist revolutionary acting as a puppet for Bill Ayers, but this critique of Ayers and his wife Bernardine Dohrn is interesting. Today, the wily Ayers and his wife sit pretty atop American […]
In 2005, the NCAA began its crusade against universities with racially “hostile or abusive” logos and nicknames. Among its targets: Florida State’s Seminoles, the University of Illinois’ Chief Illiniwek, and yes, UND’s Fighting Sioux. Last year, the North Dakota State Board of Education voted to retire the nickname completely, which will happen […]
Lew Rockwell interviews Roderick Long. Long articulates the anarchist position very well in this. Professor Long stresses that the state is just a bunch of people, not supermen. Its power is an illusion, coercing us only because we consent to be ruled. But education about the State, and […]
Lew Rockwell interviews revisionist historian Thaddeus Russell. This is great stuff. Professor Russell’s new Renegade History of the United States speaks volumes to the eternal conflict between those who hold power and all the ordinary peoples. The Founding Fathers wanted the British regime without the King. The wonderfully […]
…As if they needed anymore dumbing down. Maury2Ktakes down the Republicans. The original Tea Party came out of the Ron Paul for President movement. At the early demonstrations, “Audit the FED” signs were always prominent. That was then, this is now. Where are those signs today? Ask Palin […]
Maury2K takes down the Democrats. What was truly shameful was not drug-addled carnival barker Rush Limbaugh saying on his radio show that America’s health insurance system is perfect, but, rather, Democrats on the floor of the House, maintaining that the solution to the health care crisis is pouring […]
An article on Italy’s third positionist movement. It’s obviously written from a hard left perspective, so some of the analysis has to be taken with a grain of salt. (thanks, Jim!) “You’d be forgiven for thinking that a group of zine-publishing techie squatters into rock music, baiting the […]
The great William Norman Grigg tells it like it is. Every week — actually, every day — innocent people across the country are harassed, abused, brutalized, tortured, and murdered by armed strangers in government-issued costumes. Most of the assailants are never held accountable. Often, they are placed on […]
