Nexus X Humectressby Jack Ross http://www.amconmag.com/postright/2011/01/13/strauss-beyond-left-and-right/ Paul Gottfried has paid me the high compliment of writing an extended response to a message board comment I made of his essay on the critics of Leo Strauss. Though I’m amused that Gottfried seems to be taken in by the argument of some […]
by Jack Ross http://www.amconmag.com/postright/2011/01/13/that-1918-feeling/ Though it may well be too soon to assume any real significance to the withdrawal of Hezbollah from the Lebanese government, it is nevertheless suggestive of what I have argued for a while – that we are on the brink of an uprising across […]
Kevin Carson on the modern version of the Baptist/Bootlegger alliance. The ostensible opposing sides in the so-called Drug War have a similar relationship. In the real world, the private drug cartels derive their power from the existence of a lucrative black market which the state plays a central […]
Kevin Carson tells us how to do it. These are the kinds of economic policies I envision future pan-secessionist and alternative anarchist organizations bringing into the arena of public debate and into the political mainstream.
Will others be inspired? Also, some interesting observations from Chris Kennedy at LewRockwell.Com.
So says “Thoreau.” As a helpful guide to our readers, I have prepared a detailed classification scheme for illegal drugs: Class Ia: The drugs that you used when you were young and wild. Not as potent as today’s drugs, and nothing to get judgmental about. Sometimes worth getting […]
Scott McConnell of The American Conservative reviewed this book by Vanderbilt law professor Carol Swain. I consider this book to be the very best scholarly work on the question of American white nationalism. In fact, it is probably the only such work of any genuine quality. Dr. Swain […]
James J. O’Meara discusses homosexuality in Islamic culture, and the false dichotomy of the “progressive” West and “benighted” Islam promoted by the Neocons. I’ve discussed this false dichotomy with regards to other issues in the past. See here.
Excellent, comprehensive take down of the High Priest of Left-Anarchism by left-anarchist Roderick T. Long. I will always acknowledge my intellectual debt to Chomsky, whose writings more than those of anyone else helped me to develop a thorough understanding of the history and nature of U.S. imperialism. But […]
Congratulations to the Second Vermont Republic and the Republic of Cascadia! (thanks, Jim)
One of the biggest controversies surrounding myself is my association with the national-anarchists, my recognition of them as a legitimate branch of anarchism, and efforts to include them as part of a pan-secessionist alliance. This statement by the National Anarchist Tribal Alliance of New York provides what is […]
This interview with Naomi Wolf gives a good overview of the real problems with the police state that has arisen from the terror war. Read it here. Wolf is actually a pretty good antidote to the histrionics of the Glenn Beck and/or Alex Jones crowd. She actually provides […]
Yesterday, a left-anarchist posted this critique of ARV/ATS on another forum. I’ve included the critique in its entirety at the beginning of this, and then spliced it up with my own comments inserted in the second section.
Paul Gottfried gives his take on the subject. Given the PC attack on Twain, one would never know that he was both a staunch abolitionist and militant opponent of Christianity.
Interesting article from Alternet on the utopian communities during the Age of Aquarius.
Shawn Wilbur on the C4SS symposium. Wilbur has done some great work making Proudhon’s stuff more accessible.
Achieving economic self-determination in one of America’s most depressed cities. Read the article.
by James Leroy Wilson http://www.partialobserver.com/article.cfm?id=3564&RSS=1 It was to be expected, right from the day of Barack Obama’s election as Presdient. As the Tea Party grew, it became not a question of “if” but of “when.” Some lunatic was going to shoot a Democratic (or even moderate Republican) politician, […]
Kevin Carson explains why.
Paul Gottfried offers some possible explanations of the bizarre attempt to lay the blame on an irrelevant scapegoat.
Dr. Sean Gabb of the Libertarian Alliance offers one.
Here are some potential projects I would like to see ARV/ATS develop in the years and decades ahead: 1) An independent radio network which would feature a variety of programs aimed at targeted demographics. Some might be in the right-wing populist Alex Jones mode, some might be oriented […]

“Most the people who knew the AZ shooter called him a “nut” and a “Left wing pothead”. It’s interesting to watch all the Left TV shows and read the Leftist blogs, They are all trying to blame this kid’s actions on the “Right wing” and gun ownership. It’s […]
Interesting article from The Atlantic on Saudi Arabia’s gay subculture.
A symposium on property and ownership theory at the Center for a Stateless Society. Looks interesting,
…is under attack by the usual suspects. Figures.
I quitting smoking pot, for the most part, years ago and stoner culture itself never really appealed to me. That said, of all the separatist groups I’ve ever encountered, this is one of my personal favorites.
Read it all here. So far as I can tell, there is nothing in these principles that are inherently incompatible with anarcho-pluralism or pan-secessionism. The kinds of communities the NOI might create internally would not exactly please our left-libertarian rivals, but so what? Just don’t go there.
Who would’ve thought? This place is about an hour from my residence, and I’ve had a number of friends who lived there for varying periods of time. See more here and here. Apparently, there are about 2000 such communities in the USA. The fact that such communities can […]
Craig Bodeker interviews Jared Taylor. Predictability, Taylor says no. Jared Taylor makes the most articulate and compelling case for the legitimate concerns of white nationalists of anyone I am familiar with, but that’s not really the source of my interest in him. Rather, I am much more interested […]
Frank Schaeffer, the son of the late evangelical Christian theologian and philosopher Francis Schaeffer, talks about how the “religious right” actually came into being in an interview with Amy Goodman of Democracy Now. See Part One and Part Two. See also these detailed interviews with John Whitehead and […]
by Steven Saragian Our Glenn Beck?: http://www.alternativeright.com/main/blogs/zeitgeist/our-glenn-beck/ Recently Keith Preston of AttackTheSystem.com authored an article on the Austin radio show host and documentary film maker Alex Jones. As a fellow, for lack of a better term, Conservative Anarchist that has actually been involved with what, for the lack […]
Totalitarian humanism at its finest. I suppose little more could be expected from a graduate of the System’s premiere institution of higher learning. What we need, I think, is some form of American gendarmerie—a quasi-military federal organization specialized in police/security functions rather than finding and killing bad guys […]
January 25 will be the tenth anniversary of Attack the System’s first appearance online. Special thanks to all of those who have supported or contributed to ATS over the years. For newer readers or those with a taste for nostalgia, here’s what we looked like in the old […]
I have a piece up at AlternativeRight.Com where I take a look at Alex Jones. Read it here. I argue that the kinds of elements Jones appeals to might be the ground level forces for the Alternative Right just as the fans of “conservative talk radio” and FOX […]
by Michael Parish After posting my official reply to my critics last night, I paid a visit to Keith’s blog only to find that another voice had slipped under my radar. Normally, I would compose a brief rejoinder and post it in the comment’s section; the considerable length […]
From The Economic Collapse #1 A Michigan man has been charged with a felony and could face up to 5 years in prison for reading his wife’s email. #2 A 49-year-old Queens woman had bruises all over her body after she was handcuffed, arrested and brutally beaten by […]
A correspondent recently informed me of Arthur Versluis’ article, “Antimodernism” (Telos, no. 137, winter 2006, pp. 96-130). This passage is particularly relevant to what we do here: (pp. 122-123): “Indeed, even those who are often termed ‘leftists’ or ‘anarchists’ share a great deal with what is often termed […]
Are anarchists back in business after 70 years? Yes, according to an AP News Report: European anarchists grow more violent, coordinated … A loosely linked movement of European anarchists who want to bring down state and financial institutions is becoming more violent and coordinated after decades out of […]
by Jack Ross Pat reminds us of his brilliance yet again in taking on the ever-dreary national greatness conceit about the decline of our science and math test scores. He cites a study by the great Steve Sailer showing that White and Asian test scores still beat all […]
Observes Paul Gottfried. Most of the alternatives posed to the present liberal tyranny, Jim points out, are flawed or unworkable. Glorifying the wills of some superior individuals or an ideal community based on biological similarity or working class élan may be to retreat into wishful thinking or else […]
Lew Rockwell on the neoconservatives and Bill Anderson on the progressives. Paul Craig Roberts on the police state they have created.
Kevin Carson on a genuine military hero. When I hear someone say that soldiers “defend our freedom,” my immediate response is to gag. I think the last time American soldiers actually fought for the freedom of Americans was probably the Revolutionary War — or maybe the War of […]
The leader of Jews for the Preservation of Firearms Ownership has died. See obituaries here and here. My only contact with Aaron was a lengthy telephone conversation about fifteen years ago, but I found him to be a highly impressive individual. JPFO’s materials are some of the most […]
So says Kevin Carson: I saw a couple of heartening news items this past week that illustrate the same principle. First, a judge in Missoula County Montana complained that it would soon likely become almost impossible to enforce anti-marijuana laws because of the increasing difficulty of seating juries. […]
