Cultural Enrichment?

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 […]

Lessons of the Iranian Revolution

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 […]

On Occupancy and Use

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 […]

Why Are People Rioting in the Middle East?

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 […]

The Revolutionary Wave

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 […]

Talk About White Privilege

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 […]

The Fight for the Fighting Sioux

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 […]

We Do Not Need a State

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 […]

Obama Cult Continues to Roll

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 […]

"War on Cops?"

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 […]

Houston Shuts Down Homeless Feeding Program

This sucks. This is also the kind of economic activism we alternative anarchists could work to build political coalitions around. No doubt these kinds of state actions are offensive to a wide assortment of political groups as well as private individuals. Perhaps our organizing opposition to economic repression […]
