CNN Claims ‘American Al Qaeda’ Is Infiltrating Our Farmlands

Liberal Activist Calls For Deprogramming Veterans From Disinformation
A sign of a decaying empire is when the ruling class becomes so arrogant they no longer feel the need to maintain the loyalty of the military. Big mistake from their vantage point.
Rand Paul Exposes Antony Blinken’s Warmongering Ways
The imperialists know their empire is getting harder to maintain.

American Hypocrisy Towards Unauthorized & Violent Protests Must End
By Andrew Korybko, One World The Biden Administration is following in the footsteps of the former Trump one by exercising hypocrisy towards unauthorized and violent protests.

Kurt Andersen: The True Billionaire Conspiracy To Screw The Working Class
It’s unfortunate that “libertarianism” is often conflated with plutocracy by both the Left and Right with Bismarckian “Prussian Socialism” (what Americans call “progressivism”) as the supposed solution. Reaganites and their descendants are about as “libertarian” as King Ferdinand and Queen Isabella. Corporate plutocracy results from a plethora of […]
Dems Have NO EXCUSES On 15 Minimum Wage, Will They Pull Through?
The impact of this will be to double the wages of the higher level unskilled and semi-skilled, but at the cost of unemployment for the least skilled. The petite bourgeoisie, which has already been decimated by the lockdowns, will be further harmed. Minimum wage increases are a band-aid […]
Reflections on the 0 to 100 Scale of Authoritarianism/Anti-Authoritarianism
A few years back, I developed what I call the “0 to 100” scale as a means of characterizing the degree of anarchism or anti-authoritarian exhibited by a particular philosophy or organization. A zero would be a full-blown totalitarian regime like those of Hitler, Stalin, Mao, Kim, or […]
QAnon’s ‘Great Awakening’ failed to materialize. What’s next could be worse
While I have always rejected, and continue to reject, the view that Trump was a “fascist” (as opposed to a low-rent Nixon), I do see certain potential dangers regarding right-wing authoritarianism. The cult-like sectors of the right-wing could potentially be marshaled in an authoritarian, statist direction by a […]

We’re All ‘White Supremacists’ Now

A central […]
So, Tell Me, ‘Do You Hate the State?’

Stand Down @jack: Why the First Amendment Needs to Be Applied to Social Media
As I have said before, where I dissent from modern libertarianism of the Randian variety is with my view that corporations and banks are merely modern feudal manors, and the media, universities, and now tech companies are the new church. It doesn’t do much good to claim to […]
Biden administration authorizes financial transactions with Yemen’s Houthi rebels to let aid flow
Hmm. What’s the angle? Most likely this is the Democrats’ retaliation against the Saudis for their close relationship with Trump, the murder of Khashoggi (a WaPo employee), and the fact that Yemen has made them into a growing liability. Whatever works. By Haley Ott, CBS News London — The […]
From Black Panthers to Boogaloo Bois: Lobby Day in Virginia
This happened in my city about a week ago. I know some of these people. An on-the-ground “mass movement” of this kind would be right on the mark. If nothing else, it would force systemists ranging from the social democrats to the neoliberals to the neocons to the […]
