Nexus X HumectressBy Micah Meadowcroft, The American Conservative When a Washington Post reporter came digitally knocking looking for comment at Tesla CEO and sometimes-world’s-richest-man Elon Musk’s door, he did the only right thing you can. He blew them off. There are exceptions, of course, and I hope you would consider […]
By William S. Lind, Traditional Right For millions of Americans, perhaps as many as one-third of the population, the results of the popular vote contest in the 2020 election of the President remain in doubt. Because the Electoral College, not the voters, elects the President, there is no […]
By Stella Chan and Leah Asmelash, CNN A 30-year-old Northern California man undergoing a mental health episode died days after police officers kneeled on the back of his neck for nearly five minutes to subdue him, lawyers for his family said. Angelo Quinto had been “suffering from anxiety, […]
It’s funny how “both sides” are constantly trying to flagrantly rig the game in their favor.
I knew this guy was a total conman the first time I ever heard him over 30 years ago.
This segment is a perfect illustration of the unfortunate nature of mainstream discourse concerning economics, where the arguments are framed as pitting plutocratic apologists vs statist regulators and bureaucrats, i.e. the nobles vs the monarchs. And, unfortunately, the few people who understand this usually double as “culture war” […]
Research shows that political junkies are less than 15-20% of the US population. They’re just the most vocal, and often concentrated in sectors with a larger than average platform. Krystal Ball and Saagar Enjeti discuss new Suffolk University polls showing the public view on QAnon.
The US public: “If Fauci and the media are for the vaccine, there must be something wrong with it.” Saagar Enjeti explains why there is hope for COVID herd immunity by April and argues the case for getting vaccinated.
Today’s news in the McCarthyism/Satanic Panic of the 2020s. Team Rising discusses the suspension of Mike Pesca’s podcast, The Gist, over comments he made on Slack.
Krystal Ball and Saagar Enjeti react to reports that Barack Obama and Bruce Springsteen are doing podcast together.
Assuming this polling data is accurate, this is the highest level of support for this idea to date. Keep in mind that during the past half-century public opinion has shifted wildly on a wide range of issues: civil rights, interracial marriage, military conscription, gender roles, gay rights, gay […]
By David Flood, Sapiens Anarchists have been an easy scapegoat for violent events in recent months. But anarchism, as a political philosophy, is fundamentally about collective deliberation and responsibility. Two hours into a weekly planning session, the 15 or so black-clothed, tattooed, and pierced activists were getting cranky. […]
By Amory Starr and Jason Adams Abstract This paper examines one of the less-discussed modes of anti-globalization, relocalization, or local autonomy. It describes a range of autonomous movements, summarizes their political-economic ideas, and discusses some common social critiques raised in regard to local autonomy. Apologists for the costly […]
TELOS In the Spring issue of American Affairs, Blake Smith writes at length about Carl Schmitt’s “The Tyranny of Values,” the title essay of the collection The Tyranny of Values and Other Texts, published by Telos Press. Edited by Russell A. Berman and Samuel Garrett Zeitlin, translated by […]
Tucker and Naomi discuss the totalitarian state we are facing.
The former chief of the U.S. Capitol Police Department is set to testify before a Senate committee on Tuesday about the events that unfolded on January 6. It comes as the FBI said it has identified over 500 suspects in the federal investigation into the deadly riot, and […]
Of course.
Not exactly surprising.
Libertarian YouTuber Keith Knight (https://twitter.com/an_capitalist) (https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC8ew…) hosts Ben Burgis for a discussion on the merits of democratic socialism versus the merits of libertarianism.
By Christopher Caldwell, Mises Institute American society today is divided by party and by ideology in a way it has perhaps not been since the Civil War. I have just published a book that, among other things, suggests why this is. It is called The Age of Entitlement: […]
By Nico Armin In the summer of 2018 I was at a movie night event with newly acquainted classmates from grad school. We were all still getting to know each other and one of them asked me something about my personal beliefs. I don’t remember the details but […]
Anti-imperialism is a means of attacking concentrated power generally, breaking up empires, and attacking the largest states, which are usually the worst states in terms of their overall level of predation. The proliferation of more countries is a stepping stone toward abolishing states generally. However, is that sometimes […]
Keith, Emma, and RJ “Hidden homeless crisis”: more people are living in cars and RVs and it’s getting worse, verification of homelessness, homeless numbers are higher than that, you’re homeless, eviction protection and the verge of being homeless, small towns of homeless people, different levels of homelessness, why […]
By Nicky Reid aka Comrade Hermit Exile in Happy Valley Is it just me or has Black History Month become kind of a gross corporate circus lately? Just another banal commercial grab bag of Hallmark moments to peddle the superiority of the American experience. I feel like shit […]
The only real disagreement that I would have with this image is that my own perspective is broad and eclectic enough to include all of the viewpoints on the spectrum that is presented, and then some.
The best US Presidents were arguably the ones nobody has ever heard of like Martin van Buren. By Michael Lind, Tablet Martin Van Buren created the machinery of mass political parties in America, opening the way for ordinary people to be heard—until so-called ‘reformers’ weakened the parties, inadvertently […]
Talk about an understatement.
The public and pundits alike are still processing the most recent election, but this much we know: 2020 marks the most diverse Congress in American history, and President Trump garnered more minority voters in 2020 than in 2016. As Georgia faces two runoff elections, which will determine which […]
Is it not obvious that this is merely the latest ruling class tool with which to stir up resentment against minorities and/or incite minorities against whites, while encouraging all to ignore the system that is their common enemy? Russia Today Coca-Cola is facing a major backlash for allegedly […]
In light of the recent allegations against Marilyn Manson, I wanted to share my personal story and encourage women to stop viewing themselves as helpless victims.
Our general conclusion was no. Todd Lewis is joined by Keith Preston, Logos, and Terminal Philosophy.
This is a fairly interesting report from the Counter-Extremism Project which provides a generally accurate view of the “far-left” in the US. Read the report here. As a caveat, the Counter Extremism Project is a systemist group associated with former high-ranking government officials. Their objective is to legitimize […]
Almost as soon as the party of the tech-oligarchs and new clerisy won the election and took power they began purging the sectors of the left they don’t want or who are no longer useful: Marxists, anarchists, Trotskyists, Antifa, etc.
The state, ruling class, and media are trying to spin the narrative that there is a white supremacist insurgency in order to turn the “war on terrorism” inward. Crime Prevention Research Center Entertainment television continually provides a false impression of those who commit mass public shootings and how […]
Alexis Grenall, political consultant and columnist at The Nation, joins Emma Vigeland to discuss her view that Joe Biden should be out last president and that the United States should move to a parliamentary system. Read the full article by Alexis Grenall at https://www.thenation.com/article/pol…

Ben Burgis is joined by podcast host and writer Jason Myles along with producer Forrest Miller in the segment, as they screen a small portion of a film from the Chicago Film Archives showing discussion between members of the Young Patriots group in the mid 1960s along with […]

Robinson, editor in chief of “Current Affairs”; and producer Forrest Miller join Ben Burgis to begin with a discussion of Nathan’s recent WILDLY UNJUST labor experience (see here: https://youtu.be/J1glhcneBbg) followed by […]
At least they’re not Kristolites. –Unfortunately, the radical extremist wing of the Republican Party in 2021 may be too big too fail, with a high portion of current Republicans believing absolutely ridiculous conspiracy theories
The New York Times is pissed about the alternative media in the same way the Catholic Church of the Middle Ages was pissed about the printing press.
By Jacob Sullum, Reason Civil asset forfeiture, which allows police to seize property they allege is connected to crime without arresting (let alone convicting) the owner, has provoked intense criticism in the United States, especially during the last decade. The critics argue that the practice demolishes due process […]
Vertus Wellborn Hardiman was the victim of an unethical secret U.S government radiation experiment in 1928. Hardiman was born on March 9, 1922 in Lyles Station, Ind., known as one of the earliest Negro settlements in the United States. When Hardiman was five years old, he was one […]
I wish Trump luck with this. A Trumpist third party would neutralize the Republicans. Fragmenting the right-wing into two parties where neither can get the upper hand but where both collectively can constrain the Democrats sounds about right. By Gabby Orr and Meridith McGraw, Politico There’s no longer […]
For our eighth episode, we spoke with Glenn Greenwald to discuss his political work and his philosophical roots. Co-founder of The Intercept and current author of the Glenn Greenwald Substack, Glenn is someone whose opinions we want to know when it comes to important topics, as Kyle points out in the episode. […]
A pretty good pro and con discussion on Marcuse.
By Brendan O’Neil, Spiked Online I’m glad sections of the left find the free-speech crisis so funny. Or ‘free-speech crisis’, as they always put it, those sarky quote marks signaling their skepticism towards the idea that there’s a censorship problem on campus and elsewhere in society. ‘Freeze peach!’, […]
By Ally Marie McLean The problems a nation that would otherwise be independent suffers under the globalist system which is currently consolidating its power, a state which would otherwise be independent suffers under the yoke of the Union. That is to say, the Union is on the national […]
I actually think someone like Dave Rubin and the #WalkAway types represent the future of mainstream conservatism (socially liberal and economically conservative but tolerant of the alt-lite as long as they’re pro-Israel). The big question is what are they going to do with Trump’s nursing home/trailer park/insane asylum […]
Libya and Syria were the Obama administration’s version of Afghanistan and Iraq. Obama, Hillary, and Samantha Power were Bush, Cheney, and Rumsfeld of the Democrats. The “lesser evilism” of Noam Chomsky, Kevin Carson, most progressives, most left-anarchists, etc. is bullshit. France 24 Libyans on Wednesday marked the 10th […]
