Nexus X HumectressBy Nicky Reid aka Comrade Hermit Exile in Happy Valley Law and order. Just the sound of those three words sets my teeth on edge. Together they form a verbal menage a trois that quite possibly amounts to the three ugliest words in the English lexicon. It brings […]
Trump’s Iran policy has been the worst aspect of his administration, along with his support for ongoing Israeli expansionism and the Saudi war in Yemen. If the neocons are successful in colonizing the Democrats and embedding themselves in a Biden administration, look for them to continue this same […]
The Lincoln Project is merely a means through which the neocons and their closest allies, warmed-over Bush Republicans, are colonizing the Democratic Party, the same way a commie cult might try to colonize an antiwar or environmental group. A Biden administration will be a ruling class unity regime […]
He’ll accept the results if the Deep State tells him to (which they will). By Jason Lemon Newsweek President Donald Trump declined to say whether or not he will accept the results of the presidential election in November during an interview broadcast by Fox News Sunday. “I have […]
Is it actually going to happen? By Rachel McRady Entertainment Online Kanye West seems to be taking his first steps in running for office. On Sunday, he held his first rally in South Carolina. Wearing a vest with “Security” written on the front, and sporting “2020” across the back […]
One thing about Trump that I have never seen any commentator point out is that while Trump is a billionaire, he does not originate from the traditional Anglo-Saxon American elite. Trump originates from a German immigrant family, and Germans and the Irish were the original “immigrant undesirables” in […]
Wokeness, “cancel culture,” political correctness, etc. is merely the loyalty oaths, satanic panic, or the “just say no” of the present era. Has any of this do-gooder stuff helped even one person pay rent, resulted in the release of a single prisoner, or prevented even one bomb from […]
Notice that the War Street Journal couldn’t care less about what double-digit unemployment could mean for the actual working class. They’re just worried about their dumbass election. By John McCormick Wall Street Journal President Trump and former Vice President Joe Biden are campaigning for the White House in […]
The aristocracy realizes there is money to be made in pretending to be friends of the peasants and mouthing the platitudes of the clerisy, all the while building the new feudalism. Notice that this statement contains nothing about class or economic subjects, just the standard Do-Gooders, Inc. laundry […]
This isn’t a bad article, particularly considering it is from a mainstream source. By Patrick J. Kiger How Stuff Works You may have seen TV footage of black-clad, masked protesters, smashing storefront windows and spray-painting their logo — an ‘A’ inside a circle — on buildings on the […]
By Ramon Blecua Responsible Statecraft The current global health emergency provoked by COVID-19 is accelerating deep changes that will have far reaching implications not only for the way international relations are conducted but in every aspect of social life and economic activity. The influence of powerful non-state actors […]
Just like murder was legal for someone who held the rank of sultan in the Ottoman Empire.
At bare minimum, we should all be in favor of secession by these three.
This commentator is being facetious when he says that the Trump administration is actually trying to fuel the protest movement in Portland, but I am not convinced that is not actually the case. The Trump campaign wants there to be civil unrest so they can appeal to their […]
“A Latino friend of mine pointed out today that what we are seeing in Portland is a light version of CIA operations in El Salvador, Columbia, Chile and other Latin American countries in the 70s and 80s. The US propped up dictators and organized coups. The US helped […]
“Banks, Media, Universities, Military, Prisons, Big Pharma, Frankenfood Agribusiness, etc. There’s a whole bunch of power-elites that consolidate into an ever-evolving ruling class.” Adil Sarker
I disagree that the existence of the Electoral College or the bicameral Congress is the main thing that is wrong with the current system. It is not unreasonable to have institutional mechanisms to prevent mob rule. The main problem is that, if you read the enumerated powers and […]
By Christina Farr CNBC Taiwan has been praised for its highly effective Covid-19 response. Taiwan, which has nearly 24 million citizens, has had only 451 cases and seven deaths. Taiwan had a plan in place for years, which involved quarantines, contact tracing and wide availability of masks, among […]
By Wesley The Point News Prior to 2020 cancel culture was arguably apolitical, but as we near the impending re-election of Donald Trump, cancel culture has become weaponised by his largely left-wing enemies on social media platforms but when it became apparent that Trump was on uncancellable cancel […]
By George Greig The Point News Since the creation of the first devolved assembly in 1999, there has been an undeniable growth in regional nationalism and separatism. This is due to the view that the current union gives England too much power over the other home nations. While […]
By Dean Brooke The Point News Miss Swimsuit UK has been stripped of her title after criticising the Black Lives Matter movement. The winner of the Miss Swimsuit UK competition has had her title revoked after a recent post published on Facebook relating to the Black Lives Matter […]
By Liz Mineo Harvard Gazette The killing of George Floyd, who died after a white Minneapolis police officer kneeled into his neck for nearly nine minutes during an arrest, has spurred a wave of rage, anguish, and protests across the country. To better understand what is happening and […]
By Rory Taylor Vox The US has signed hundreds of treaties with Indigenous peoples. Here’s what would happen if the government actually honored them. “‘We the people’ has never meant ‘all the people.’” These were words of independent presidential candidate and Navajo Nation member Mark Charles as he […]
By F.H. Buckley Spectator The United States is ripe for secession. Across the world, established states have divided in two or are staring down secession movements. Great Britain became a wee bit less great with Irish independence, and now the Scots seem to be rethinking the Act of […]
Reddit There are large economic, political, and cultural divides in the US (at least more so than other countries). Some states actually have economies that are competitive at a global scale (i.e. California, Texas).
By John Kaluza In response to Mr. Staveley’s commentary, I am closing in on 70 years old and I can honestly say, like you do, that the thinking of many people in this country is incomprehensible to me. I just don’t understand how so many Americans can support […]
CT2 In the world of scenario planning, the fact that something is unthinkable should not prevent us from considering it. The breakup of the Soviet Union was unthinkable almost until the day it happened. At the same time, of course, not every impossible thing will happen. Among the […]

By Jesse Kelly The Federalist Divorce is hard, but it’s easier than cutting the brake lines on your wife’s car. It is long past time for an amicable divorce of the United States of America. There is simply no common ground with the Left anymore. We are now […]
By Patrick W. Watson Forbes Some things are so horrible, you don’t want to think about them. Institutional risk managers think about “tail risks”—scenarios with very low probability. But should they happen, the consequences would be so devastating that you must plan for them.
Reddit What was once laughable in 2008 when Barack Obama was about to become President, is now uncomfortable to think about here in 2017 with Donald Trump as POTUS. You do not need to stick to this professor’s template, you can crack open a cold one with the […]
By Frank Jacobs Big Think America’s two political tribes have consolidated into ‘red’ and ‘blue’ nations, with seemingly irreconcilable differences. Perhaps the best way to stop the infighting is to go for a divorce and give the two nations a country each Based on the UN’s partition plan […]
By Sebbie Gost Quora Well, first of all, I would not divide America to equal economies (because honestly, half of America will still make less than the top 5 states combined), I would divide it based on what has been dividing nations from the beginning of time: culture. […]
By Bonnie Kristian The Week Look, we had a good run. Well, maybe “good” isn’t quite the right word … but certainly it’s been interesting. These United States were a grand experiment. But the experiment has gotten out of hand. It’s time to peacefully dissolve the union. I […]
By Sascha Issenberg Intelligencer The year is 2019. California’s new governor, Gavin Newsom, recently elected on a platform that included support for the creation of a single-payer health-care system, now must figure out how to enact it. A prior nonpartisan analysis priced it at $400 billion per year […]
By Steve Lopez Los Angeles Times On Monday night, I was watching TV coverage of the pandemic, first on MSNBC then on Fox News, and a thought occurred. We are so helplessly, irrevocably divided, it’s time to quit talking about coming together as one and do the only […]
By Clare Malone Five Thirty-Eight This week we talked to Chris, a 35-year-old white man from rural Pennsylvania. Chris wrote in that he thought, “the U.S. should have a velvet divorce,” a reference to the peaceful dissolution of Czechoslovakia — now the Czech Republic and the Slovak Republic […]
