Critical Race Theory: On the New Ideology of Race
A debate on CRT from about six months ago. Critical race theory, as both an analytical framework and a movement, is pulling hard at the strands of racism that are supposedly woven into the very fabric of America. For critical race theorists, injustices are ubiquitous, entrenched in every […]
Wealthy bankers and businessmen plotted to overthrow FDR. A retired general foiled it.
The scenario described in this story is not particularly analogous to where we are today. Political conflict in the 1930s was genuinely class-based. Class conflict exists today and continues to increase, but it is tertiary in relation to the intra-elite conflict (see Pareto on elites and counter-elites) pitting […]
Global Trends 2040: A More Contested World
This is a pretty interesting report from the National Intelligence Council. Read the full document here. There is more discussion of non-state actors from Beau below:

As one whose lifelong goal has been to end US imperialism, I’m all for Republican secession (or Democratic secession or something else secession).

The main danger from the right is a revanchism led by a figure who is actually competent and capable of uniting the neocons/Reaganites/supply-siders and the populists/Trumpists/nationalists.

What is Behind Gen. Mark Milley’s Righteous Race Sermon? Look to the New Domestic War on Terror.
