Nexus X HumectressBy Peter R. Quiñones This will be short but it’s a simple way to look at the political culture in the United States (and probably most of Europe as well). If I told you a common tactic of the Left is to demonize any opinion to the Right […]
By Caitlin Johnstone How many journalists are capable of doing what Julian Assange did to expose the criminality of the powerful? Not many. How many are both capable and willing? Fewer still. How many of those are now willing after seeing what’s being done to Assange? Even fewer. […]
My own take on the question of “protectionism” is largely one of indifference. From an anarchist perspective, “protectionism” can occur on a non-state basis. It is certainly conceivable that a confederation of voluntary communities (similar to the medieval European leagues like the Lombards and Hanseatics) could have their […]
This is an interesting article about a contemporary moral panic. Underage sex is one of America’s latest hysterias. Nowadays, we’ve got not only the Pizzagate/QAnon “pedophile under every bed” hysteria, but there is increasingly an effort to equate sexual relations between adults and postpubescent minors with pedophilia. An […]
By Peter Van Buren, The American Conservative Hard questions about January 6 are being left unanswered because they might disturb the Democratic narrative. Let’s ask some.

By Eammon Singleton, The American Conservative In April 1998, Sony Corporation chairman Norio Ohga made world headlines with his comment, “The Japanese economy is on the verge of collapsing.” In reality, nothing in Sony’s experience supported such an assessment.

What Nicky describes here is a perfect summary of what is wrong with today’s “Left.” ATS was created in part to challenge the hegemony of what might be called the “anti-iconoclastic left.” Most of today’s “leftists” are actually late 19th century/early 20th century progressives, only they have done […]
The more pervasive totalitarian humanism has become, the more there has been a pushback, not only from the right but from the left. Hence, the emergence of opposition to totalitarian humanism on the Left. The development of a “left-wing anti-totalitarian humanism” is what I have been hoping would […]
By Jeff Salzman In this episode, I discuss a terrific essay I stumbled upon that brings an integral sensibility to a new cultural emergent: the differentiation of the political left into “woke” and “anti-woke” ideologies.. Cultural evolution proceeds through a process of 1) differentiating and 2) integrating. […]
Recent research by Pew shows that the perspective depicted in the meme below (so-called “faith and flag conservatives”) only represents about 10% of the US population. Most of the US right-wing nowadays are business conservatives, pro-labor populists, and socially moderate to liberal center-right or quasi-libertarian types. One thing […]
Pakman seems to miss what is most important about the question he is addressing. Yes, Carlson is a dove on Russia. But he is an outlier. Most Republicans are still Russia hawks as they always have been. What is interesting is that Democrats are now Russia hawks as […]
