Nexus X HumectressBy Rod Dreher, The American Conservative I recently received an e-mail from a reader of Live Not By Lies who said that the book was saying exactly what needed to be said right now, in this extraordinary moment for traditional Christians and political conservatives. I would have normally […]
By Angie Jackson, Detroit Free Press Washtenaw County’s new prosecutor says his office will no longer pursue charges against adults who engage in consensual sex work, a move that national advocates praised as a win for marginalized people. The policy directive that Prosecutor Eli Savit issued Thursday applies […]
Another interesting trend I’ve noticed lately is a “progressive to Republican” trajectory where folks with “progressive” leanings expressing sympathy for populist figures on the right. A parallel trend is the “walk away” movement which tends to be made of former liberals and leftists who became disgusted with SJWs […]
Tulsi on totalitarian humanism’s plans for a domestic terror war. I think Carlson is right when he says the Democratic leadership was more afraid of Tulsi than of Trump. Former Rep. Tulsi Gabbard discusses her viral video claiming that the United States and Democrat party are moving toward […]
This is great stuff here. Dore takes down some Trotskyist moron from some creepy vanguard party. In the past year or so, I have noticed the emergence of folks in the left-anarchist milieu who are willing to embrace, or least entertain, a position not unlike the one that […]
Why not just make him Pope? By Tristan Justice, The Federalist Dr. Anthony Fauci raked in $417,608 in compensation from the federal government in 2019, putting the nation’s infectious disease expert at the top of the income chart above the rest of its 4 million federal employees, Forbes […]
#Democratsaretherealhomophobes? DC Bureau Chief of The Intercept, Ryan Grim, discusses a homophobic slur used in a Massachusetts Democratic Committee meeting.
Two thoughts: 1) Ben Shapiro is a total douchebag; 2) these Politico “employees” sound like total morons. Krystal Ball and Saagar Enjeti discuss the reaction to Ben Shapiro contributing to the Politico Playbook.
Rising’s constant call for an FDR Caesarism is lame. Talk about “kids in cages.” Although this commentary exposes the “let them eat cake” attitude of the ruling class fairly well. Saagar Enjeti analyzes President Biden’s shortcomings in regards to shaping the COVID relief bill.
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 […]
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 […]
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 […]
On Jacobin’s original series Weekends, guest Noam Chomsky discusses where the US left goes after the pandemic and the Trump years.
Weinstein usually has a fairly interesting take on things even if he’s very middle of the road.
Tom Woods Show Listen here. Howard Lichtman and Matt White of ThickRedLine.org join me to discuss what should be obvious: the connection between victimless crime laws and police abuse. They intend to do something about it, and I invite you to consider — and support — their strategy.
I don’t know enough about these boogaloo people to have a comprehensive assessment of them. What the guy Dore interviewed was saying was on the money, assuming he is stating his views honestly and is reasonably representative of his movement. The main criteria with which I evaluate all […]
These “boogaloo” guys sound a lot like what the militia movement of the 90s was like. The dude Dore interviewed was the mirror image of a group called the North American Liberation Army that I encountered in the 90s. In fact, a lot of the ideas associated with […]
How sad (wink). Benjamin Goggin and Rachel E. Greenspan, Insider.Com Men who identify as Boogaloo Bois, known for wearing Hawaiian shirts and wielding rifles at police brutality protests across the US, have been linked to several crimes. With a name based on the title of a cult 1980s […]
This keeps getting better. Apparently, Dore has the Twitterati outraged. I know very little about this “boogaloo” movement. But assuming this guy that Dore interviewed is at all serious or representative of their movement, I’d say he’s more or less right on the money. He talks about the […]
It used to be the norm to place the label of “communist” on everyone with dissenting political views, but that appears to have gone out of fashion, probably because it just doesn’t have the power anymore now that the USSR has been gone for 30 years. Also, the […]
This is hilarious. Weenie social democrats at TYT saying, “Hey, we don’t want to overthrow the government or anything!” “But muh government!”
Jimmy Dore has been getting a lot of shit from the usual suspects over this. This is Fred Hampton-level stuff here.
A social media poster comments: “The Pandemic” didn’t do SHIT!!!! The media did! The political class did! The academic class did! Hopkins did! The CDC did! The WHO did! White Coat worship did! Worshipful deference to and blind trust in authority did! The oligarchs and plutocrats did! The […]
It is in part for reasons like this that I have always considered myself to be a traditional anarchist rather than a modern libertarian. Libertarians tend to be overly focused on the formal political government in the same way that Marxists are overly focused on the capitalists. I […]
Glenn Greenwald is probably the best writer out there on the national security state. Radley Balko is arguably the best writer on the domestic police state. Journalist and co-founding editor of The Intercept, Glenn Greenwald, argues that media censorship, in an effort to prevent domestic terrorism, has gone […]
I always figured if the Democrats managed to oust Trump, a purge of the “no longer useful” left would take place. But it’s happening a lot quicker than even I thought it would. By Caitlin Johnstone There has been a purge of left-wing accounts from social media, with socialist […]
By Caitlin Johnstone There’s a news story about a US military convoy entering Syria being shared around social media with captions claiming that President Biden is already “invading” Syria which is getting tons of shares in both right-wing and left anti-imperialist circles. The virality of these shares has […]
The government’s response to COVID-19 has been to protect the health of the affluent classes at the expense of the poor and working-class, who still have to either go to work or simply do without an income. By Geoff Colvin, Fortune The economic effects of COVID-19 could prove deadlier […]
Well, that didn’t take long. The ruling class has started purging the useful idiots who are no longer useful. By Lia Eustachewichm New York Post Twitter has suspended several popular accounts with alleged ties to Antifa — which have more than 71,000 followers combined — following the Inauguration […]
This is hilarious. Hollywood D-lister and MSNBC throwaway Sam Seder and trust fund commie girl Emma Vigeland are getting worked up because Jimmy Dore said a few good words about a speech from some guy from the Boogaloo Boys.
It’s interesting how in this segment, Krystal and Saager essentially admit that the system can’t be fixed, and then fall back on the usual FDR-love and “vote for Bernie” or whatever bullshit. Lame.
Too many supposed anti-establishmentarians are playing the system’s game when it comes to international relations, by embracing either Russophobia on the left or Sinophobia on the right, and those who are worried about Iran or the DPRK aren’t even in the game at all. The Big Three villains […]
By Nicky Reid aka Comrade Hermit Exile in Happy Valley January 6th was a day that will live on in infamy, or at least so I’m told. Maybe I’ve just become too jaded in my young age, but three weeks later and I still don’t see it. The […]
By Emaline Friedman, PhD, Mad in America Research evidence suggests that the criminalization of drug use and possession has roots in explicit racism and reinforces inequality. A broad coalition of professionals writing in the American Journal of Bioethics seeks to rectify the havoc wrought by the War on […]
By Brittany Bernstein, National Review Tulsi Gabbard, the former Democratic representative from Hawaii, on Friday expressed concern that a proposed measure to combat domestic terrorism could be used to undermine civil liberties. Gabbard’s comments came during an appearance on Fox News Primetime when host Brian Kilmeade asked her […]
By Tom Dreisbach and Meg Anderson, National Public Radio As a violent mob descended on the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6, lawmakers and aides hid wherever they could, waiting for the military and police to arrive. But many of those who stormed the Capitol were military veterans themselves, […]
Apparently, we have a political class that is so narcissistic and self-destructive they don’t even think maintaining the loyalty of the military is an important idea. Big mistake from their vantage point. By Matthew Cox, Military.Com U.S. Capitol Police abruptly relocated the break area for thousands of National […]
Babylon Bee SWEDEN—According to sources in the media, President Biden had an incredible first day in office. After signing executive orders to end racism, global warming, and Republican domestic terrorism, the Norwegian Nobel Committee agreed that this was possibly the best first day in office of any president […]
By Jonathan Bastian, KCRW Many people are unfamiliar with the writings of Marcus Aurelius or Seneca, but their philosophy of stoicism is currently enjoying a resurgence. They were especially relevant in times of hardship and trial; great leaders sought their guidance during the Civil War, the American Revolution, […]
Duh? By Veronique De Rugy, Reason With his policy announcement about another COVID-19 relief bill, President Joe Biden declares loud and clear that he will not shy away from spending blowouts and fiscal irresponsibility. For the most part, his proposed plan is nothing more than a way to […]
Thomas Szasz pointed out decades ago that the medical and psychiatric professions had essentially become a “new priesthood.” They’ve since been joined by most of the professional class generally, particularly the “ideas industries” like journalism, media, and education. By Nick Gillespie, Reason Few journalists are more relentlessly iconoclastic […]
I strongly disagree that the Trump administration was “fascist,” as opposed to “neo-Nixonian.” But that’s just me. By Darian Worden, Center for a Stateless Society A victory over fascism deserves celebration. The fascists lost their hold on the most powerful political office. Their leader is disgraced and isolated. […]
As a Nietzschean, I don’t really believe in the concept of abstract “justice,” which I consider to be more of a Sorelian myth or a Platonic noble fable. By Cayce Jamil, Center for a Stateless Society If you listen to a protest, you will more than likely hear […]
By Marc Lamont Hill, ROAR Magazine As I reflect on the current moment, I see a widening sky of possibility. The public sphere is filled with radical voices, radical ideas and radical action. We are dreaming together, envisioning a free and safe world where we finally turn to […]
By Sean Gabb Though America is not my country, I have the right to some standing where American politics are concerned. Britain is a satellite state of America, and whoever rules in Washington has much power in London. A further consideration is that what may loosely be called […]
By Don Fitz During the late 60s, when the US war on Viet Nam was going strong and people were questioning capitalism, I drove from Eugene to Berkeley where my sister was living. I ran into folks who invited me to a discussion about starting a commune. There, […]
Caller wonders if there will be another Patriot Act passed after the Trump riot.
