Nexus X HumectressBy 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 […]
“I never was. When I left the hospital I was still in America and all America is an insane asylum.” -Ezra Pound, when asked by the press when he had been released from the mental hospital.
By Gabrielle Olya Banking Rate Emerging evidence from clinical and laboratory studies has shown that cloth face coverings reduce the spray of respiratory droplets when worn properly, which can help prevent people who have COVID-19 from spreading the virus to others. To help slow the spread of the coronavirus, […]
By Tal Axelrod The Hill The Minneapolis City Council approved a resolution Friday declaring racism a public emergency nearly two months after the high-profile killing of George Floyd while in Minneapolis police custody. The resolution says that “racism in all its forms causes persistent discrimination and disparate outcomes […]
By Charles R. Pierce Esquire A major American city is being softly Pinochet’ed in broad daylight. Pardon me for being this uncivil this early in the morning but, seriously, what in the FCK is this shit? From Oregon Public Broadcasting:
By Madeline Holcombe and Brad Parks CNN Eighteen Chicago Police officers were injured in a protest Friday, the department said in a statement. A large group gathered for a protest around 4:20 p.m. local time, the department said. Officers were there “providing security and protecting their First Amendment […]
By Griff Witte, Ben Guarino Washington Post For weeks this summer, it was a seeming paradox of the coronavirus pandemic: cases in the United States were rising but deaths were falling. To the Trump administration, this was evidence that its strategy for combating covid-19 was working. To medical […]
By ANDREW SELSKY and GILLIAN FLACCUS New York Daily News The mayor of Portland, Ore., demanded Friday that President Donald Trump remove militarized federal agents he deployed to the city after some detained people on streets far from federal property they were sent to protect. “Keep your troops […]
By Sergio Olmos, Mike Baker and Zolan Kanno-Youngs New York Times PORTLAND, Ore. — Federal agents dressed in camouflage and tactical gear have taken to the streets of Portland, unleashing tear gas, bloodying protesters and pulling some people into unmarked vans in what Gov. Kate Brown of Oregon […]
Susan Rice for VP and Samantha Power for Secretary of State? It figures.
It looks like FOX increasingly thinks Trump is a bad bet and are trying to slowly distance themselves from him. Except, of course, for the professional Spiro Agnew-impersonators like Hannity, Gutfeld, Ingraham, and Carlson. That’s probably why the Murdoch family is investing in the Biden campaign Krystal and […]
This segment indirectly provides a reasonably accurate though very basic overview of how the different factions of the ruling class are aligned with the two parties. The tech industry, the media, and the managerial class side with the Democraps, and the fossil fuel, real estate, and other traditional […]
Whoever designed this can’t spell but the message is accurate enough.
Perfect. An essentially pan-anarchist/anarcho-pluralist flag with enough of historic American populism to bring in the sovereign citizens, boogaloo, radical libertarians, and gun nuts. Well done.
A simple but direct video that deals with a basic problem. The speaker describes how anarchists need to establish an independent position that is separate from the Left, Right, and Third Position. I’ve tried working with all three over the past three decades, and all three are generally […]
A Maoist memorializes CHAZ. In some ways, I generally considered having supported CHAZ to be something of a litmus test that separates authentic anti-systemists from pro-systemists. Notice that CHAZ was suppressed by the city government of Seattle, arguably the furthest left of any local government in the US, […]
