A return of the abortion wars of the 80s and 90s would really heat up the already intense “culture war.” By David Cole, Taki’s Magazine Sometimes you wish that a certain group of people were never taught a certain phrase. In 1997, when O.J. Simpson ran afoul of […]
Tom Woods Show You and I complain a lot, and rightly so, but we do of course have a positive program. I asked David Stockman, who was director of the Office of Management and Budget in the Reagan Administration, to outline what specifically we should do if the […]
Tom Woods Show You know the usual approach: apologize, beg for mercy, explain that you didn’t really mean it, that you’ve “grown” — we’re all drearily familiar with the usual pathetic attempts to avoid judgment from lunatics. It never works. It never, ever works. Life is going to […]

This is a manifesto that was published a while back by Crimethinc. Whatever these folks’ intentions, my prediction is that if everything in this document were to be implemented, the end result would be something akin to a Marxist-Leninist dictatorship, and not one of the more functional ones […]
Folks, it doesn’t do much good to “remove the statues” but keep the government. It might be a better plan to focus more on the latter rather than the former. Crimethinc Today, after years of protest, the authorities in Richmond, Virginia are finally removing a 12-ton statue of […]

By Bryan Caplan One of the less charming features of the woke movement is its vocal age prejudice. In conversation, believers have repeatedly appealed to my age and their youth to gain argumentative advantage. I’m tempted, admittedly, to respond in kind. In reality, the young have less insight on […]
A critique of the anarchist position from the standard parchment-worship perspective. Because 1776 was Year Zero or something. By: Michael D.

It sounds like these guys are getting educated on why reformism/electoralism does not work, although the way Ron Placone keeps referring to Biden as a “neo-fascist” is hilarious. Read some Stanley Payne.Payne’s definition of fascism is the one that I consider to be the most historically accurate. In […]
