Nexus X HumectressIt’s interesting that the neocons are now waging a multi-front battle to regain the control they had during the Bush years: colonizing the Democrats and Never Trumpers, while embedding themselves in Trumpism at the same time, and simultaneously creating a Rainbow Right while continuing to pander to the […]
Many people are regrettably confused about what gets passed off as “leftism” in the USA. Historically, the original “left” were the classical liberals of the 18th century who favored republicanism over absolute monarchies. In this sense, virtually all Americans are “leftists” even Rush Limbaugh and Alex Jones. In […]
FOX News “conservatives” have a habit of referring to everything they don’t like as “socialism” (usually taken to mean any kind of government involvement in the economy, particularly if it is supposedly intended to help the disadvantaged). But the American public administration state has nothing to do with […]
Given that the Republican “base” of older white evangelicals and nativists is rapidly shrinking, I’ve often wondered where the GOP would get their replacement constituency from. It appears this #WalkAway movement may be part of their effort to “elect a new people” (Bertolt Brecht). #WalkAway seems to be […]
I always said that anti-gang laws were not only a violation of freedom of association but would eventually be used as a means of repressing political dissidents. By Li Cohen CBS News Black Lives Matter protesters in Salt Lake City have been accused of splashing paint on a […]
The reason Americans have an exaggerated fear of crime is that for decades the System has promoted anti-crime hysteria in order to justify the building of a police state. It is true that crime rates started to dramatically increase in the late 1960s when Nixon introduced the “war […]
Carlson is in his better form in this although he’s still trying to score some partisan points along the way. Now, if he would only criticize Trump’s law and order police state the same way he criticizes medical martial law.
Sean Hannity is obviously a professional liar and charlatan but some of the Biden footage in this is hilarious.
Kim says no to Biden.
The suicide of the US ruling class.
Warning: Don’t buy a used car from the Trumpster.
The Chinese regime sucks, but the Sinophobia that the US political class is ratcheting up is all a rhetorical smokescreen that has the effect of obscuring the real relationship between the US and China. By Doug Bandow The American Conservative In hopes of winning reelection, President Donald Trump […]
The worst decision that Trump has made in his entire term so far. Elliot Abrams is the son-in-law of neocon godfather Norman Podhoretz. By Daniel Larison The American Conservative The New York Timesreports on the resignation of Brian Hook, who will be replaced by none other than Elliott […]
As if mainstream politicians somehow aren’t involved in “politicizing fear.” Remember the “smoking gun that was going to turn into a mushroom cloud” or “Colon” Powell’s smoke and mirrors show in front of the UN? Or the daily dose of “the Russians are coming” from MSNBC? Or Iran’s […]
No. The Russophobia, Sinophobia, and Iranophobia promoted by the neocons and neoliberals are the most dangerous collection of conspiracy theories. By Charlie Warzel New York Times In 2019, the F.B.I. cited QAnon as one of the dangerous conspiracy theories posing domestic terrorist threats to the United States and […]
Fragmentation among the ruling class parties is a good thing. More “squad” folks, please.
This is some pretty good commentary. The Democrats are fine with “diversity” as long as it’s within their own class.
Shit. Just when I thought Noam had redeemed himself. What about Libya and Syria, Noam?
Heel vs. Heel matches are always the best.
What I find interesting about this Oprah/Cruz confrontation is that it is an intra-ruling class and intra-minority dispute. An African-American billionaire and media mogul taking the cliched SJW line vs a Hispanic Senator and representative of “Conservatism, Inc.” taking the cliched right-wing line. By Morgan Gstalter The Hill […]
A classic work featuring essays by ex-Communists that was originally published in the 1950s. Today’s totalitarian humanists are going to produce a whole new generation of “god that failed” types and already appears to be doing so. The danger is that they will go the Sidney Hook, Frank […]
Former SJWs are interviewed by Gavin McInness. What I find most interesting about this is how closely it resembles the various atheist podcasts featuring former religious fundamentalists and cult members talking about how they “walked away.” In fact, years ago, there was a newsletter for former evangelicals called […]
This is an excellent interview. Chomsky really puts the phenomenon of Trumpism in context in this interview. In recent years, Chomsky has at times gone off the deep end with hyperbolic comments but he doesn’t drop the ball in this one. It is good to hear Chomsky distinguishing […]
By Janet Biehl Komun Academy February 3-5, 2012, a a conference was organized in Hamburg, Germany. The theme was “Challenging Capitalist Modernity: Alternative concepts and the Kurdish Question.” The following text was delivered as a speech to the conference. The speeches have been published as a book as well.
On this day 75 years ago, the US became the only nation in history to use nuclear weapons. By Simon Denyer Washington Post HIROSHIMA, Japan —On the 75th anniversary of the atomic bombing of his city, the mayor of Hiroshima planned to warn the world about the rise […]
A clerical oligarch gets caught with his pants down. Literally. By Peter Canellos and Michael Stratford Liberty University President Jerry Falwell Jr. said on Wednesday that he had apologized for posting a photo of him in unzipped pants and arm around a woman — but also defended the […]
New York Times Rescue workers still struggling to treat thousands of people wounded in an enormous explosion that rocked Beirut turned their attention on Wednesday morning to the desperate search for survivors. The blast, so powerful it could be felt more than 150 miles away in Cyprus, leveled […]
The Jacobin commies attack the petite bourgeoisie. By Matt Kruenig The Jacobin As the anti-monopoly movement has picked up steam in important policy circles, some have begun thinking that small business promotion is a good idea. This seems to be partially driven by the technical view that small […]
Of course. They’re covering all their bases.
A very strong case could be made that migration from California is far, far more threatening than immigration from Mexico or the Middle East. When is that “California travel ban” coming? Gotta stop those California caravans.
Sorry, Tucker, but I don’t give a fuck what happens to New York City. I don’t care for Tucker’s “law and order” police state and I don’t care for Di Blasio’s “medical martial law” either.
Fuck FAUX News. Although the Spiro Agnew-impersonators on FOX are at least entertaining, unlike the boring-as-fuck CNN and MSNBC.
Of course. That’s what Presidents are for.
Universities, corporations, tech companies, banks, and media conglomerates should all be considered agencies or branches of government, just like Congress or the Division of Motor Vehicles. The Bill of Rights should apply to all of these institutions and organizations. Un
Big Tech is part of the government. Big Tech was made possible only through technological development carried out by the government and with taxpayer money. The First Amendment should apply to Google, Facebook, Twitter, and Amazon every bit as much as it applies to Michigan, Illinois, Atlanta, and […]

Whatever else could be said about the Democraps, the last thing they are is Commies. They’ve gone out of their way to marginalize Rooseveltian New Dealers and McGovernite liberals like Sanders and AOC. Team Rising shares their thoughts on who Joe Biden is considering for his running mate […]
Whoever wins, the other side is likely to claim the winner cheated their way to victory. And they’ll probably be right. I’m pretty sure both sides plan on cheating with the question being who will be the most effective cheater? Krystal Ball reacts to Donald Trump’s Axios interview […]
It’s interesting to see (comparatively) fringe people being elected to Congress. Look for more of this in the future from both Left and Right. A Congress full of social democrats and QAnon types would be hilarious, although the ruling class would still control things from the top.
I agree with some of this and disagree with other parts but this is an interesting video. The best way to change things is by focusing on improving yourself and your community.
This is a classic work that was originally published in 1900. The author is a German judge, a non-anarchist who engaged in the scholarly exploration of the ideas of the “Big Seven” thinkers of classical anarchism: William Godwin, Max Stirner, Pierre Joseph Proudhon, Mikhail Bakunin, Peter Kropotkin, Benjamin […]
PragerU more or less epitomizes what gets passed off as contemporary American “conservatism,” which is basically a defense of the hegemony of the remnants of the 19th-century industrial bourgeoisie, American exceptionalism, the traditional American civil religion, and a defense of the American empire, plus paeons to the American […]
Get creative, folks. Stars Insider Nearly everyone has dreamt of ruling over their own country, but few can say they’ve ever done it. Enter the Republic of Molossia: a self-proclaimed micro-nation located within the US that has its own currency, passports, space program, war history, and much, much […]
I disagree with widespread claims that Trump is somehow Putin’s puppet. The Trump administration has been too hawkish toward Russia (unilaterally abrogating the INF Treaty, for example) rather than not hawkish enough. Russia is just a province in the global capitalist empire in which the US ruling class […]
A proposal for “defunding the police” from the Right though a bit moderate, just like most proposals for “defunding the police” from the Left. By Boyd Cathey Chronicles Now that a federal appellate court has ordered the dismissal of the case against Lieutenant General Michael Flynn, and outgoing intelligence […]
Fair enough. By MARK ROBINSON Richmond Times-Dispatch Already pulled from their pedestals and put in temporary storage at a sewage plant, Richmond’s Confederate statues are now officially up for grabs. The Richmond City Council on Monday voted unanimously to permanently remove the statues already being held in storage, […]
