Nexus X HumectressKrystal and Saagar discuss a Morning Consult poll that shows 61% of voters say they do not want to select a different Democratic nominee after Joe Biden’s denial of Tara Reade’s allegation, while 26% say the party should select a different nominee, and 13% are undecided.
#Metoo, Saager, you milquetoast statist-reformist Ross Douthat-loving nerdboy. The commentary and analysis in this is pretty good. They admit the Republican and Democratic “establishment” are on the same side while the left and right engage in tribal warfare over nonsense.
Hopefully, but whoever replaces him will be just as big a shithead. One of the great things about being an anarchist is that I don’t have to take any of this electoralist crap seriously other than to make fun of it all. Krystal Ball discusses Mitch McConnell’s priority […]
#Metoo was never anything more than a media/corporate/Democratic Party-fueled “satanic panic” that was used to advance the interests of the left-wing of capitalism, the Democratic Party, and cultural war tribalism. Sexual assault is a real issue and involves real crimes of aggression, but one that was merely exploited […]
The Mindcrime Liberty Show with Swithun Dobson and Tim Patton interviews Keith Preston on the left and there relationship with the Police state. Our guest, Keith Preston, is the author of books such as Thinkers against Modernity as well as Attack the System who can be found at […]
The far-left (Marxist and left-anarchist) critique of mass democracy is that it is merely a mask for rule by a plutocratic capitalist class. The libertarian critique is that democracy is two wolves and a sheep voting on what to have for dinner. The far-right view is that democracy […]
First, the coronavirus. Then a depression and mass unemployment. And now this. Will the tragedies never end? By Alicia Lee CNN While the outer packaging says the cracker sandwiches are cheese-flavored, the individually-wrapped packs within the box are actually of the peanut butter variety, according to Mondelēz International, […]
One thing some of the Asian countries did right was starting to wear masks as soon as the epidemic started. Asian culture is much more “mask-friendly.” Every year during allergy season I see Asian international students wearing masks on university campuses. Meanwhile, the dumbass USG was telling everyone […]
Supposedly, the world is comprised of 200 sovereign nations. In reality, it’s more of a case where the USA has 50 formal states and 150 informal states, with another 50 functioning as provinces within the G20-dominated global capitalist empire that is maintained by the US military empire (see […]
The Deep State apparently feared that a Trumpian insurgency within the ranks of the ruling class would end up pushing US foreign policy in “too far” of an “isolationist” direction. There seems to be an intra-ruling class civil war going on concerning the future of the empire between […]
The ACLU and other similar groups are good at defending civil liberties valued by liberals and leftists. There are other groups that defend civil liberties that are valued by conservatives and libertarians. Ideally, an anarchist mass movement would have the defense of ALL civil liberties as its primary […]
This is a very, very basic high school level overview of different theories of how the state actually works in terms of the distribution of power. Unfortunately, most Americans do not have even a high school level education in the social sciences and political science (they have more […]
C. Wright Mills theory of the “power elite” tends to be the dominant paradigm among radical social scientists today (the ones who aren’t as radical tend to be pluralists). Although I tend to think Mills’ theory is too narrowly constructed as it describes only the right-wing of the […]
A very basic introduction to elite theory, which most radicals regrettably do not appear to be familiar with. Elite theory, a part of the conflict perspective, is a theory which attempts to explain the political and social roles that people play within the class structure of society. This […]
I don’t know how many times I have been asked by mainstream conservatives and reformist libertarians, over the last third of a century or so, why I am an anarchist and not a constitutionalist. This video explains, on a very basic level, how the federal government was created […]
It’s tough living in a small bedroom in your parents house, no room for yourself or privacy, then imagine owning 6.6 billion acres of land across the world and getting to pick which castle you wanted to stay at. In today’s educational animated cartoon we look at the […]
Who are the secret billionaires that run the world? In today’s educational animated cartoon we look at the world’s most wealthy and powerful families. Which family has the most influence and power?
David Pakman makes one of the best cases against electoral politics I’ve seen in a while. That’s not his intention but that’s what it amounts to. If all of these “progressive” do-gooders put as much effort into building an actual revolutionary movement as they do into reformist bullshit […]
The Battle of the Sociopaths. Although I disagree with David that Biden and Bush are “better than Trump.” All three function within the same essential ruling class paradigm-imperialist, corporatist, statist.
By CALVIN WOODWARD Associated Press In the years between two lethal pandemics, one the misnamed Spanish flu, the other COVID-19, the world learned about viruses, cured various diseases, made effective vaccines, developed instant communications and created elaborate public-health networks. Yet here we are again, face-masked to the max. […]
As a pro-rent strike guy, I’ll let Styx speak for the other side.
Kyle nails it in this.
Just like 1918. Krystal and Saagar give an update on coronavirus case numbers at 1,165,300 with an additional 89,000 cases in the US since Friday, and 68,000 deaths in the U.S., and discuss new reports that say the pandemic could last for two years.
Krystal and Saagar discuss Sen. Mitt Romney’s (R-Utah) proposed legislation on Friday to temporarily provide a pay increase for essential workers including health care professionals, grocery store workers, food processors, and others, amid the coronavirus.
Krystal Ball discusses why Michigan protesters’ goal to reopen the economy is irresponsible and dangerous, but that those radical tactics are necessary to be heard by a government that prioritizes corporate fealty over workers needs.
Okay, ruling class. Time to practice some of that “quantitative easing” and fork it over. With all due respect to my many wonderful libertarian and an-cap friends who dismiss the UBI as crypto-statism, I regard the UBI merely as reparations from the state/ruling class/power elite enemy, i.e. forty […]
I’m in favor of this. Tenant strikers take down the landlords, and then landlords take down the government. In fact, a debt strike by debtors, followed by a tax strike by creditors, would essentially kill two birds with one stone. By Georgia Kromrei New York Estate News In […]
The main problem the Democraps have is their delusion they can win elections on demographics and culture-war politics alone while ignoring class issues, and the Left falls right in line behind this (“The Deplorables Are Coming!”). Then along comes right-wing populism. Does the Left not realize that Marx […]
Peter Zeihan provides a refreshing alternative to the China-love and/or China-hate that’s going on nowadays from the left and right. No, China is not going to replace the US as the global hegemon. Instead, China is likely to either implode or revert into neo-Maoism (which is already happening […]
By Grace Hauck, Mark Nichols, Miriam Marini and Andrew Pantazi, USA TODAY Network USA Today CHICAGO — Train tracks run above the intersection of Kinzie Street and Ashland Avenue, two major streets that meet on Chicago’s West Side. On one corner of the intersection, there’s a trampoline park and new […]
Murdered by the state. By Angelina Chapin The Cut A month ago, Andrea Circle Bear gave birth while on a ventilator after catching the coronavirus behind bars. On Tuesday, the 30-year-old died, making her the first woman in federal prison to be killed by COVID-19, according to press […]
By Sean Gabb Will anyone be outraged if I say how much I have enjoyed the lockdown? On the one hand, I have the spectacle, as often as I step outside, of fools shambling about in face masks and rubber gloves – all ready to start whining about […]
“I support (but not agree with) all forms of protest.” -Adil Sarker
David Icke lasted longer on Facebook than I did, lol. BBC Facebook has taken down the official page of conspiracy theorist David Icke for publishing “health misinformation that could cause physical harm”. Mr. Icke has made several false claims about coronavirus, such as suggesting 5G mobile phone networks […]
By Patrick Henningsen Ron Paul Institute As Europe and North America continue suffering their steady economic and social decline as a direct result of imposing “lockdown” on their populations, other countries have taken a different approach to dealing with the coronavirus threat. You wouldn’t know it by listening […]
