Why We Need Hillary to Win: The Fire Rises
An interesting and, I suspect, accurate bit of analysis. I think this commentator is correct that as U.S. society continues to move leftward, the right will become increasingly alienated from both the political establishment and the mainstream culture, and begin to adopt a more radical, militant, and anti-establishment […]

BBC on Europe’s leading secession movements
Secession isn’t pan-secession, but any challenge to the conventional nation state is to be welcomed, particularly those moving in the “right” direction. Here’s a BBC article on Europe’s top 8 secession movements and their current standing published in the light of Scotland’s referendum on independence in September. […]
“Angry Pirate” and other GCHQ BS Wheezes
Picture: Banksy’s recent artwork in Cheltenham; home of GCHQ GCHQ (Government Communications Head Quarters) is the British state’s electronic spy organisation. In theory these guys are supposed to be providing intelligence for the security services in relation to people who might be considering blowing stuff up. In practice, […]
Ralph Nader and Tom Woods Discuss Left-Right Cooperation
Anti-Fascists Against Antifa: The Time Has Come
Is Market Anarchism eclipsing Anarcho-Marxism?
It seems to me that in the last couple of years “free market anarchism” in its various forms has grown to the point where it’s now starting to eclipse or even surpass the “anarcho-Marxists” in terms of size and influence. I base this observation on the number of […]
How Libertarians Should — And Should Not — Approach Millennials
This article from C4SS by Carson is fine in so far as the discussion of alternative economic paradigms and the falseness of the “big government vs big capital” dichotomy is concerned. Those are Carson’s primary areas of specialization. But this piece is more problematic for what it does […]
Students for Liberty: “The principle of foreign non-interventionism is not a precondition to being a libertarian”
Perhaps not. But opposition to American imperialism is certainly the first prerequisite for any kind of political radicalism worthy of the name, libertarian or otherwise. Apparently, some libertarians want libertarianism to be just another faction within the U.S. empire. Students for Liberty Over the past year, I have […]
A New Look at Human Nature
By Pasquale Pulella NATA-NY Many times in the past we anarchists have heard the argument that human nature is what’s stopping humanity from being free, is this true? Could it be that maybe were asking the wrong question? Could it be that the statist are right in some […]
Secessionism is Growing: Plan To Split California Into Six States Closer To Reality
While I endorse this proposal, I would qualify my endorsement by pointing out that this is merely a plan for decentralizing the state of California. That by itself is a worthwhile ambition, but the wider aim of pan-secessionism is much more radical, i.e. the overthrow of the American […]
Paul Waggener – “Love Is Death In Your Veins”

How liberalism became an intolerant dogma
Required reading. By Damon Linker Liberals are increasingly religious about their own liberalism, treating it like a comprehensive view of reality and the human good. 351 A lot of liberals are taking things very personally these days. (REUTERS/Jonathan Ernst) At the risk of sounding like Paul Krugman — […]
Why There Will Be No Revolution
By Gary North I recently read an article on the Left-wing website in Great Britain, The Guardian. This has been the most consistently Left-wing publication in Great Britain. It was part of the organized Left as early as the 1920’s, and it has never varied in the slightest. […]
The Question is, Why Would ANYONE Trust the Government?
By Kevin Carson Center for a Stateless Society The drastic long-term drop in Americans’ trust for government since the 1950s periodically evokes pearl-clutching on the center-left. Liberal radio talk show host Leslie Marshall recently tweeted, as apparent cause for concern, a Pew Research poll finding the percentage of the […]
Green, self-righteous – and still ruinous. Meet the new politically correct imperialism
By James Delingpole The Spectator ‘Why did you leave us?’ said the old Sudanese man in Omdurman market. ‘Things were so much better when you were here.’ He was talking about the British empire, of course, and apologies if I’ve told the story before, as I know I […]
Sean Gabb On the Persecution of the Christian Bakers in Ulster
Libertarian Alliance Note: See this news story for background: “A bakery owned by a Christian family is facing legal action after it declined to make a cake printed with a message supporting gay marriage.” (Belfast Telegraph, 8th July 2014) Speaking in London today, Sean Gabb, Director of the […]
The Struggle Continues

No Cake? No Peace!
Some Gay Cake Nazis earlier today Several times I’ve seen what I assume was a hypothetical suggestion that PC elites might one day persecute a Xian bakery for refusing to bake a cake for a gay wedding . Well, that day has now arrived (more or less). The […]
Contra: Johnson
This is a reply to Greg Johnson’s “Moses the Egyptian” at Counter-Currents. By Todd Lewis Mr. Johnson’s Moses the Egyptian is yet another ill thought-out screed against Christianity worthy of the atheistkult. In fact most of Mr. Johnson’s claims are taken verbatim from atheistkult in this and other […]
Political Correctness and Imperialism
By Justin Raimondo Antiwar.Com With support for interventionism at an all-time low, the War Party is constantly on the lookout for fresh justifications of their failed and increasingly unpopular overseas meddling. The old saw about how “terrorists” mustn’t be allowed to establish “safe havens” is getting a bit […]
LGBTTIQQ2SA: Seriously
LGBTTIQQ2SA apparently stands for:“a broad array of identities such as, but not limited to, lesbian, gay, bisexual, transsexual, transgender, intersex, queer, questioning, two-spirited, and allies”
Kevin Mac Donald Attacks the Libertarian Strawman
Another oldy. ___________ by All-in-All The Alternative Right (including Third Positioners) has a long history of making ignorant attacks on libertarianism which strikingly parallel those made by the socialists of the 19th century. This should not be surprising since white nationalism and most of the Alt-Right are basically […]
Pluralism Has Limits
Old but gold. _________ by AntisocialMisanthropicPessimist I think immigration, as a subset of private property, is one area where the AnCaps have a serious practical issue, that is assuming AnCaps have enough clout to matter anyway. Basically, if you didn’t personally appropriate something, you don’t own it. […]

The Stark Truth with Robert Stark
Robert has some very interesting interviews available featuring cutting edge political dissidents and topics that rarely get discussed elsewhere. Check some of these out:
We’re Moving Forward and We Need Your Help!
2014 has thus far proved to be an interesting year for American Revolutionary Vanguard and AttacktheSystem.Com. After many years of laboring in the trenches on the fringe of the fringe of the world of dissident politics, the ideas we have long promoted here at ATS are starting to […]

The Left-Right Political Spectrum Is Bogus
By Crispin Sartwell The Atlantic The French Estates-General in 1789 (Isidore-Stanislaus Helman via Wikimedia Commons) Americans are more divided than ever by political ideology, as a recent Pew Research Center study makes clear. About a third of people on each side say of the other that its proponents […]
Kanaka Maoli to Feds: ‘Get Out of Our House! Go Home!’
Decolonial monarchism! This jives well with Bioregionalism and indigenous clan/band/village level sovereignty. A fellow member of my tribe commented that “sovereignty should not be defined at the whim of U.S. congressional mood swings.” I agree entirely but would add that the US would never allow for any genuine, […]
Osama Bin Laden’s 7 Rules for the Effective Terrorist
Slate’s write up characterizes these as rules for terrorists. It seems that they are more like rules for effective insurgency against Middle East States. Original documents can be found here. A brief fun down of the rules: Don’t fight civil wars. As for the local enemy, such as […]

The Rise of the Progressive Puritans
Jason Hurley, an acquaintance from maverick anarchist circles, offers the following insights concerning this article by Matt Walsh. Read Walsh’s article here. Says Jason: “Matt Walsh, your entire premise is based in medicalized morality. It’s no secret that early doctors and scientists of the developing western world carried […]
NATA-NY’s Anti-Racism
Yes, yes, a thousand times, yes! By J. Cypher NATA-NY Since its inception, NATA-NY has been grossly misunderstood and vehemently attacked for being so-called “racists.” Despite repeatedly demonstrating the ways in which we are anti-racist, we continue to be labeled “nazis” and “fascists.” At the same time, our […]
Anarchy Global Revolution and the Purpose of NAM
According to the Mao-Maos, what’s being described in this essay is already happening. By Pasquale Pulella NATA-NY Anarchy’s greatest feature is also its greatest weakness. Anarchy is a world without rulers which means no organized hierarchical violence. This lack of violence is not necessarily a weakness but it […]
Maoists Accuse National-Anarchists of Subverting Governments Worldwide
If only it were true. This is an interesting though rather bizarre article from a Maoist webzine, bits of which are re-posted on Matthew Lyons’ “anti-fascist” blog with additional commentary from Lyons himself (some of which is also rather interesting). Apparently, these Maoists think there are cadres of […]
How would North American Anarchists and Libertarians deal with any of these scenarios?
The likely future of American society over the next half century will include the following: 1. An ongoing widening of class divisions driven by a complex convergence of a variety of economic, political, technological, and demographic forces. 2. Growing poverty and the expansion of the underclass, the shrinking […]
The Future of the Movement (s)
As much as I criticize it, I’m actually glad to see the rather significant growth of the different anarchist, libertarian, and overlapping tendencies in recent years even if most of them are still at the training wheels phase. It used to be much worse. When I started this, […]
Yes, Privilege Checking Sucks
I don’t personally see myself as having a dog in this fight. I post this exchange between Given and Carson here out of recognition that this is a controversial issue among anarchists and libertarians, and one that many of them care a great deal about, even if I […]
Why Privilege Checking Does Not Suck
By Kevin Carson Center for a Stateless Society Casey Given, in “What’s the Point of Checking Your Privilege?”, questions the relevance or usefulness of the concept of privilege. Not that he questions the existence of racial and gender oppression — far from it. He simply argues that privilege […]
What is Left-Libertarianism?
This piece by Carson is a good discussion of the varying shades of “left-libertarian” philosophy but it also provides a good illustration of the ghettoized thinking many radicals fall into. Take this statement: “To the general public these days, “left-libertarian” is more apt to call to mind a […]
The Bigotry of Anti-Bigotry
Yes, yes, yes! A thousand times, yes! By Dan Sanchez Libertarian Alliance/LewRockwell.Com Left-libertarians who espouse “thick libertarianism” especially like to lump anti-“bigotry” (I’ll explain the scare quotes later) into libertarianism: e.g., anti-racism, anti-sexism, anti-homophobia, etc. The more principled ones are careful to insert the proviso that “libertarian” efforts […]
For Discussion
I agree with Dr. Gabb’s comments concerning this advertisement 100%. The discuss that follows on the Libertarian Alliance blog is also interesting. By Dr. Sean Gabb Libertarian Alliance I suspect that many of our regulars will need to pause when they see this, to wipe the vomit […]
