Nexus X HumectressThe US empire wants complete domination of the Eurasian corridor and Russia is an obstacle to that goal. Plus, the US petroleum industry wants Russia’s oil, the “defense” industry needs Russia as a permanent bogeyman, the neocons want revenge for the Cossacks’ pogroms and the Pale of Settlement, […]
While I am not personally “on the right,” this is the advice I have been giving the right for 20 years. During the 1990s, I came to the realization that the right was destined to lose on the cultural front, and that the totalitarian sectors of cultural left […]
Many on the right trend toward Sinophobia in a way that resembles the Russophobia on the left. But this is fairly interesting. It is somewhat reminiscent of David Rockefeller’s dream of an uber-capital/Maoist hybrid. See this old New York Times article from 1973. By James Lynch, The American […]
https://media.urmedium.com/video//2021/03/19/637517414732431859video.mp4 The United States and China clashed during the first high-level, in-person meeting of the Biden administration held in Anchorage, Alaska on Thursday with officials from both sides trading barbs at each other. The meeting kicked off with senior American diplomats accusing China of threatening world stability and […]
Intense polarization has become a “national psychosis.” But, since few understand how things got this way, most “solutions” offered just lead to more of the same. Learn the nature of the problem from George Washington, Mercy Otis Warren, Thomas Jefferson and John Adams. Understanding that, there is still […]
On one hand, I am in favor of total freedom of association. If members of a group cannot get along with the rest of the group then they should separate. One the other hand, this is a classic example of how leftists refuse to acknowledge authoritarian tendencies within […]
During the past 50 years, the cultural revolution of the 1960s was co-opted first by the Democratic Party, then by the liberal wing of the corporate class, and then by the state security services altogether. You’ve got to check out this article if you want to know how […]
By KIRSTEN GRIESHABER, AP News BERLIN (AP) — Protesters in Germany clashed with police Saturday over coronavirus measures, with officers using water cannons, pepper spray and batons against people trying to break through police barriers, German news agency dpa reported. Protests against government measures to rein in the […]
Friends from around the world, welcome to The Great Debate! Not a debate where both sides work to defeat one another, but rather where both sides come together to find common ground on the most important issues of our time. That’s what makes this debate great! This may […]
Touré Reed, author of Toward Freedom: The Case Against Race Reductionism, joins the show to discuss why elites have doubled down on identity and explains how we can combat race essentialism by understanding politics through a public-good framework.
By Derrick Broze, The Last American Vagabond Indigenous nations are continuing their fight against a proposed copper mine at a sacred Apache site in Arizona – a six year battle which has lasted through three administrations. On March 1, the U.S. Department of Agriculture rescinded their approval for […]
She’s right that most “anti-big government” Republicans are frauds, but wrong about the supposed beneficence of “big government” itself. The European social democracies that “progressives” are in love with can only do what they do because they are rich with natural resources (e.g. Scandivanian petroleum) and are under […]
By Bear Freeman Benjamin Tucker was against “capitalism” in the sense of a State-supported monopoly of productive tools and equipment which allows owners to avoid paying workers the full value of their labor. This stance puts him squarely in the libertarian socialist tradition. Indeed, Tucker referred to himself […]
Another “broken clock, twice a day” piece from Carson. By Kevin Carson, Center for a Stateless Society Oskar Lange famously said, against the background of the debates over Ludwig von Mises’ economic calculation argument, that a statue of Mises should be erected in the planning ministry of a […]
The Onion ATLANTA—Targeting the series of PSAs towards communities that were skeptical of inoculation, the Centers For Disease Control launched a new ad campaign Tuesday featuring a racially offensive animated mascot in an effort to get more conservatives vaccinated. “We’re hopeful that associating the vaccine with this outmoded […]
By Katie Robertson, The New York Times The hiring of Alexi McCammond, who was supposed to start at the Condé Nast publication next week, drew complaints because of racist and homophobic tweets she had posted a decade ago. Alexi McCammond, who made her name as a politics reporter […]
By Robert Tombs, Unherd One hundred and fifty years ago, revolutionaries were far more interested in democracy than feminism and Marx. When I was a student in Paris, I would spend every 18 March walking the streets of Montmartre, where the Paris Commune was born. I would visit […]
By German Lopez, Vox For too long, America has approached public health issues with puritanical, black-and-white approaches. Whether it’s an abstinence-only approach for teen sex and HIV/AIDS, or refusing to provide clean needles and overdose antidotes to people who use drugs, the country has a tendency to prefer […]
Yangon, Myanmar: When the military seized power on February 1, 2021, ending the brief 9-year period of representative democracy rule and plunging Myanmar into chaos, it triggered mass demonstrations against the coup. The demonstrations began with picket signs and chants of slogans by small groups of protesters against […]
By James Bovard, Future of Freedom Foundation The easiest way to achieve sainthood in Washington is to cover up a federal atrocity. Thus, it is no surprise that former senator John Danforth continues to be treated by the Washington Post as a visionary statesman. The Post showcased Danforth’s […]
By Adam Schrader, Daily Mail Race faker Rachel Dolezal will appear in a new documentary about black beauty in which she claims people who criticize her are ‘white supremacy folks’ and blames her black ex-husband for ‘repressing’ her. Dolezal had pretended to be black for more than 10 […]
By Joakim Book, American Institute for Economic Research I don’t like governments. I don’t like how they are set up, how they’re ruled, how their existence furthers a one-size-fits-all approach to complicated social problems, or how they distort markets and behavior when they grab a share of every […]
By Cathy Reisenwitz, AVN Whorephobia is Real. Sex Addiction is Not. On March 16, Robert Aaron Long went on a deadly rampage at three metro Atlanta erotic Asian massage parlors. The myth of sex addiction and racist hysteria around sex trafficking hysteria have a body count. By perpetuating […]
I wrote this 32 years ago, and it was published in The Fifth Estate, Anarchy: A Journal of Desire Armed, and (if I remember correctly) Ideas and Action, along with some other anarchist publications from the era. There was no Internet or websites back them. This was published […]
During the Vietnam War, there were some self-described “socialists,” primarily the followers of Max Shachtman associated with tendencies like Social Democrats USA, that took pro-war positions, ostensibly on anti-Stalinist grounds, having been influenced by Trotskyism and anti-Communist social democrats like Shachtman. These right-wing social democrats were commonly derided […]
Joel Kotkin describes California’s high-tech feudalism. By Joel Kotkin, City-Journal “We are the modern equivalent of the ancient city-states of Athens and Sparta. California has the ideas of Athens and the power of Sparta,” declared then-governor Arnold Schwarzenegger in 2007. “Not only can we lead California into the […]

In the 20 + years that Putin has been the de jour or de facto leader of Russia, who has killed more people? The Russians or the Americans? It’s not even a close comparison. The Putinists are more comparable to the Five Families in terms of body count. […]

A more educated John Gotti vs. a slightly less incapacitated Professor John Gill. I can just imagine Biden trying to debate Putin. He could barely speak during his debates with Trump and Putin would be a far sharper and more formidable opponent. Biden’s handlers would have him so […]
He sounds like the kind of incel type who would probably be such a loser he couldn’t get laid even in an Asian massage parlor. That’s probably what set him off. 11 Alive, Atlanta ATLANTA — A crime spree across metro Atlanta left eight people dead and another […]
The present situation is probably perceived as one of those “nowhere to go but up” scenarios. On today’s What America’s Thinking, a new Hill-HarrisX poll finds 57 percent of voters say the pandemic is getting better while 33 percent say the same of the economy. This survey was […]
A powerful historical lesson is that attacks on religious institutions, often done for the purpose of forcing social change at a route that it won’t go, often have the effect of fueling religious extremism and right-wing authoritarian backlashes. Be careful with this, folks. Senator Mike Lee: “Churches, synagogues, […]

The Latin Americanization of the US economy over the long-term is what matters. Not intermittent fluctuations. Washington Post economics reporter, Jeff Stein, discusses the Fed’s latest projection of the unemployment rate.
The optimism about Biden’s America (“Back to the 90s”) reflected in this segment is way overstated. A slight, temporary improvement in the economy and the post-pandemic reopening will not outweigh the widening class divisions, reproletarianization of labor, growing lumpenproletarianism, and the existential conflict associated with the “culture war,” […]
