Nexus X HumectressYouTube issued a statement about how they are upgrading their efforts to merely be a source of legitimation for ruling class ideologies. Those of us involved in dissident politics need to prepare for the day when it becomes impossible to communicate in an open way online, and when […]
From a social media post: “Here’s the thing about Antifa. They are basically working on behalf of globalist oligarchs and they don’t even know it. They’re allowed to run rampant because the milquetoast left thinks that doing so will help get rid of Trump, one of the last […]
NPR anarchism. Next up: Starbuck’s anarchism. By Michelle Harvin, National Public Radio We’re hearing more about anarchy, especially where President Donald Trump is concerned. He’s repeatedly said that “professional anarchists” were responsible for the unrest and demonstrations against police brutality in cities across the country during the summer. […]
Reasonable people typically understand that multiple values of parallel importance can co-exist at the same time and that a sensible approach to value conflicts is to make reasonable tradeoffs. Preventing the spread of a serious illness is a value. Preventing an economic meltdown is a value. Preventing government […]
A reader offers the following observations concerning “alternative” politics in the US at present. I’ve been thinking recently about the state of what passes for radical politics in America, particularly in the context of third parties and the potential for pan-secessionism. The handful of relevant third parties in […]
It is interesting how whenever Trump shows even a hint of non-interventionism, the rest of the ruling class pounces on him.
Trump’s antagonistic stance toward Iran, which is driven by his relationship with Israel and Saudi Arabia, is one of the worst aspects of his administration, along with his abrogation of the INF treaty with Russia and his wink and a nod to Erdogan.
Executive director of American Compass, Oren Cass, discusses the “deadly sins of the right and left.” He also explains why American politics needs an overhaul.
Big Tech goes to bat for their man. Saagar Enjeti blasts Facebook and Twitter for allegedly censoring the New York Post bombshell story that reveals emails between Hunter Biden and top Ukrainian officials.
Biden is a total piece of shit but one thing he gets right is that liberals and civil rights leaders were just as big on the drug war back in the day as conservatives, racists, and law and order types. They may deny it now but I was […]
And the entire political class, corporate class, media, and power elite says, “We don’t give a damn.”
A lot of people are clearly expecting an unpleasant future. This week on The Fight, Jon Patton talks about the annual concealed carry permit report from the Crime Prevention Research Center!
Do not play the system’s game, whether on the margins or in the mainstream. Derrick Broze discusses the apparent brewing division along racial and ideological lines within the United States. He looks at historical examples of the CIA manipulating activist movements to create division.
This is one of the best critiques of American culture I’ve seen to date. The problem with ruling classes that adopt a “Let them eat cake” attitude is that they tend to not come to a happy ending. Ask the Bourbons and the Romanovs. By Alex Bash (academiccomposition@gmail.com), […]
I’m not a fan of the Chinese regime which comes about as close as any regime in the world today to meeting the popular definition of “fascism.” But the Sinophobia we see coming from some camps is just a smokescreen intended to obscure the real relationship between the […]
I’ve been called “anarchism’s least popular anarchist” but I think that title might rightfully belong to Derrick who has worked even harder for it than I have. Watch the videos at Nowhere News. Todd Lewis is joined by Derrick Jensen from the Deep Green Resistance; Keith Preston from […]
I’m not as moralistic about it all as Bob Higgs. My view is more like that of Diogenes. “According to legend, Alexander the Great came to visit the Greek philosopher Diogenes of Sinope. Alexander wanted to fulfill a wish for Diogenes and asked him what he desired. … […]
Arguably, one of the worst things about both Biden and Trump is their running mates. Harris appears to be a total psychopath who would likely be acting president once Biden is put out to pasture. And Mike Pence is an empty suit and “yes man” who would be […]
It’s rather remarkable that anyone would consider electing this individual to anything to somehow be an indication of “progress.” The senator and presidential hopeful went to bat for dirty prosecutors, opposed marijuana legalization, and championed policies that endanger sex workers.
Elect a con man, get conned. That’s how it works. Huff Post political reporter, Daniel Marans, explains why Donald Trump’s support has dwindled in states that led him to victory in 2016.
More of the same. Imagine that. Krystal Ball and Saagar Enjeti discuss recent developments about Joe Biden’s potential presidential cabinet and watch his campaign’s latest rap battle advertisement.
Consent Factory One of the hallmarks of totalitarianism is mass conformity to a psychotic official narrative. Not a regular official narrative, like the “Cold War” or the “War on Terror” narratives. A totally delusional official narrative that has little or no connection to reality and that is contradicted […]
From a post on social media: “The issue of war is mostly a non-issue for most voters these days. I even talked to one guy on here who rabidly hates Trump and when I brought up the issue of neoconservative/neoliberal warmongering, his answer was basically “what’s with your […]
This has got to be the lamest critique of Trump that I have seen to date. It’s mostly just Koch talking points (not surprising, considering the source). I could come up with an infintely superior anti-Trump piece. Saudi Arabia, anyone? By Matt Welch, Reason We do not view […]
Half a century of being a total scumbag. This is the moron that is supposedly going to save us from “fascism.” By Jacob Sullum, Reason During a Democratic presidential debate last year, Cory Booker weaponized one of Joe Biden’s proudest accomplishments. The New Jersey senator noted that the […]
It’s interesting how anticapitalism is starting to grow on the Right because many have realized the corporations are not their friends. Conservatives are always wondering why they are unable to effectively resist the leftward totalitarian drift. I would argue it is because they accept many of the same […]
The Mindcrime Liberty Show is joined by Rik Storey to discuss whether Libertarianism is a reactionary/traditional or liberal/libertine system of thinking? Is libertarianism about free love, abortion, and drugs as often times criticized by conservatives? Or is it a form of private landed patriarchal tyranny as believed by […]
How many people getting worked up about Amy Coney Barrett, pro or con, have ever given a second thought to where she stands on the Patriot Act, NDAA, torture, detention without trial, military commissions, surveillance, war powers, Fourth Amendment, kill lists, drone wars, executive orders, administrative law, or […]
The commentary in this video is pathetic. Hysteria, hysteria, hysteria…A comment in the thread that follows this said: “I feel like the American left is becoming a group of nihilists.” If only it were true. The “American Left” are Calvinists and Khomenists, not Stirnerites and Nietzscheans.
By Michael Krieger, Liberty Blitzkrieg We find ourselves at a moment where the financial and political systems that have dominated for decades are failing in a spectacular and irredeemable fashion. Those who pull the levers are (as usual) attempting to take advantage of the situation by rapaciously snatching […]
This is a pretty good overview of the “major” third party candidates. I like all 8 of them better than Trump and Biden. If I cared the first thing about voting, I’d probably pick Jo Jorgensen for President but Gloria La Riva for Secretary of State. The two […]
By Christopher Whalen, The American Conservative During the vice presidential debate between Senator Kamala Harris and Vice President Michael Pence, the former claimed that she was the only one in the race who had “prosecuted the big banks.” This was completely wrong. In fact, as California attorney general, […]
A pretty good critique of the rising ruling class by Angelo Codevilla, although like most conservatives he misses a number of things that would actually add to this critique. Conservatives are always wondering why they are unable to effectively resist the leftward totalitarian drift. I would argue it […]
The most interesting about a Biden administration regarding domestic policy will probably be the degree to which the Democrats move to create a one-party state. Krystal Ball and Saagar Enjeti discuss Joe Biden’s reluctance to talk about court packing. They also react to his recent comments in Las […]
The discussion of the future of the Republicans in the last couple of minutes of this is the best part. If you want to know what the future of the GOP will look like, watch The Dave Rubin Show. A coalition of neocons, right-libertarians, Randians, #Walkaways, minority conservatives, […]
Is Trump finished? Will he go quietly? I’m going to be disappointed if Biden wins by a landslide. I was hoping for more drama than that. Krystal Ball and Saagar Enjeti break down the latest polling in key battleground states, as well as nationally. They also discuss how […]
Tom is usually right, and he predicts Biden, which means we’re back to the boredom of the Obama years, with the Republicans constantly whining about “socialism.” By Thomas L. Knapp, Knappster The changing dynamics kept making me want to put this off, and I was planning to wait […]
I have a contribution to this titled “Nietzsche vs. Hitler: Anti-Nazism on the German Revolutionary Right.” Copies of SOLDIERS, ANARCHS & IDEOLOGUES: HEROES OF THE CONSERVATIVE REVOLUTION are 175 pages in length and cost just 20 EUROS with free postage to anywhere in the world. The PayPal address […]
One thing I’ve found interesting about recent events is that even a lot of conservatives are not going to bat for the police. By Dean Make sure you read all this post before you comment, but I will say this now. The police are fat bastards who are […]
Where are the woke folks? By Doug Bandow, The American Conservative Six years ago, the Islamic State appeared well on its way to creating a modern “caliphate,” or Islamist nation-state. The jihadist message of murder and mayhem drew thugs and cretins from around the world. They sought to […]
By Michael Rechtenwald Trump calls the Iraqi invasion ‘a disaster,’ wants to end ‘endless wars,’ and bring US troops home. It’s this that has fueled the deep state’s attempts to remove him from office by any means possible. The hawks want Biden to win. In a recent op-ed on RT, […]
It is fashionable for critics of the corporate state to lambaste neoliberals and supply-siders for supposedly adhering to “free-market fundamentalism.” “Free-market fundamentalism” is something you find among the lower to middle levels of the capitalist class or the petite bourgeoisie, and sectors of the lower middle to the […]
