As a general principle, I am for an “open-ended” approach to anarchist theory and practice in the sense of letting “a thousand flowers bloom.” I certainly don’t expect all anarchists everywhere to adopt my approach, and there can certainly be separate but parallel tendencies to the ATS perspective […]
Is the throne and altar party sealing its historical fate? It’s like this, GOPunks: Go populist or fade from history. Saagar Enjeti discusses where the GOP is headed as the party’s leadership butts heads over coronavirus spending, and argues that the GOP’s commitment to economic orthodoxy takes precedence […]
Once again, the Democrapic leadership is revealed to be the true “conservative” party in the US. If the Democraps wanted to make it happen, we would already have an emergency UBI and debt cancellation in place right now. It’s not that they can’t do it, they just don’t […]
Final Straw Radio. Listen here. I’m really happy to share a chat with anarchist and historian, Barry Pateman. Barry, born in the early 1950’s, grew up in a working class coal mining town of Doncaster in the UK and became an anarchist in the 1960’s in London. He […]
Jimmy nails it again.
–Americans are unlikely to tolerate and extended shutdown, meaning small concession from Governors to give the appearance of progress would be hugely beneficial
Yes, very LePenist. Right on target.
Tucker Carlson is a de facto spokesman for the petite bourgeoise and “small capitalist” sectors of the commercial economy, the post-bourgeois proletariat, the “sinking middle,” the dying WASP culture, political traditionalists and constitutional fundamentalists of the kind found on the paleo/populist-right, etc. Many of those interests have been […]
Glad to see some left-wing folks questioning the official ruling class party line.
The tech oligarchy is a principal faction of the rising left-wing of the capitalist class, for whom scientism and the therapeutic state are a core component of their self-legitimating ideology, which is in turn disseminated by the new clerisy whose ranks include the white coat priesthood.
By Stefan Gleason, Money Metals Exchange The massive set of stimulus measures rolled out last month by the Treasury Department and Federal Reserve has left many Americans wanting more… and politicians scheming for new ways to dole out additional trillions in cash. Most taxpayers have already received their […]
LOL. I’m sure that if Alex Cockburn was alive today he would be denounced as a “fascist.” He was far to un-PC, individualistic, and freethinking to be “woke.”
The future of “progressive politics” is to do what it does now, i.e. serve as the loyal foot soldiers of the left-wing of the capitalist class and the New Clerisy. And the networks air Trump’s pressers because most of the networks are Democratic Party propaganda mills, and they […]
It’s interesting how Alexandria and the other “Squad” ladies vacillate between actual radicalism or at least decent-quality reformism (for example, on Palestine or rent cancellation) on one hand, and “woke” neoliberal brownnosing on the other.
Smooth move, Krystal and Saager. Krystal and Saagar look at footage the Pentagon has released as confirmed, “unidentified aerial phenomena.”
Sexual assault is a real and serious issue, but one thing that’s great about the Tara Reade scandal is that it exposes the faux feminism of “#me too” as the New Clerisy-created scam that it was. Krystal Ball uncovers new Tara Reade evidence from Rich McHugh, who worked […]
No, Saager, Ben Shapiro is not a “nice guy.” He’s a Likudnik who favors the ethnic cleansing of the West Bank. Fortunately, Bennie’s unrepentant Reaganism and neoconservatism is finished. In order to survive the GOP will have to reinvent itself in the image of France’s National Rally (i.e. […]
Like most cults, the Democratic Party has both an exoteric and esoteric doctrine. “Wokeness” is the exoteric doctrine that is intended for the purpose of manipulating and motivating the rank and file of true believers (the progressive liberal/social democratic/SJW/Antifa/anarcho-progressive axis) while neoliberalism is the esoteric doctrine of the […]
One thing they point out in this segment is that US politics resembles pro-wrestling and the irony of two former WWE guys, Ventura and Trump, running against each other. I’m glad to see the pro-wrestling analogy I’ve used for the US electoral system for years finally making its […]
From the land of the Yellow Vests. Sometimes the French know how to get things done. By Benjamin Dodman France 24 Three nights of unrest in the French capital’s northern suburbs have stoked fears of a major flare-up in deprived neighbourhoods where weeks of lockdown have exacerbated the […]
The current situation involves a state-ordered freeze on the economy, followed by a ruling class looting spree in the form of a “stimulus” and massive profiteering by the plutocracy, which means there should be a parallel freeze on economic obligations. What we need is a massive public uprising […]
By Troy Southgate I can’t say I’m too surprised at the high degree of naivety and conformism that we are witnessing during this period. I wonder how many people here are familiar with the old Twilight Zone episode from 1960, The Monsters Are Due on Maple Street? The […]
By Troy Southgate Having watched a YouTube video in which an American leftist provides a personal critique of the H.G. Wells novel, The Time Machine (1895), I feel that I should use his analysis to highlight at least one of the difficulties presented by class-based thinking. Outlining the […]
By John Bowden The Hill Jesse Ventura, who served as Minnesota governor as a member of the Reform Party, said Monday that he is “testing the waters” for a potential 2020 run for president on the Green Party ticket. In a pair of tweets, the former wrestling star, […]
How would a libertarian deal with the Coronavirus? Is government the best solution for this problem? Will Jacob come shooting with us sometime? These questions and more get answered by the great Jacob Hornbeger. We also discuss ongoing issues in Virginia, including Gov. Ralph Northam’s sudden dictatorial powers!
As Tom Woods has said, no matter who you vote for you always end up getting John McCain.
Ryan Grim gives insight on his bombshell report that includes new footage of Tara Reade’s mother calling into the Larry King Live show in the early 90s to talk about her daughter’s assault by a “prominent Senator.”
Krystal Ball blasts the media and liberal figures for the blatant hypocrisy of Tara Reade, as new reports emerge that back Tara’s credibility.
North Korea is a Stalinist gulag that functions like a medieval hermit kingdom. The DPRK is significant only because it has nuclear weapons, and survives only with Chinese assistance. The DPRK is dependent on China and China is dependent on the US. Leave the DPRK alone and they […]
I’ve been thinking that if this situation continues a food shortage may be on the way. The current economic crisis is a government-ordered depression. It may not be the government’s fault that there is an epidemic, and it may be that there is a legitimate or necessary purpose […]
An anarcho-capitalist and a libertarian socialist debate. Ancapitstan for the an-caps. Bakuninland for the libsocs.
A couple of Jacobin Magazine-style “democratic socialists” engage in a torturous discussion of what the “progressive” rather than “reactionary” view of China should be, and why China is generally bad as opposed to Cuba, which is supposedly generally good. China should be viewed as a backwater province in […]
Thank God I am not a lame-ass “progressive” who thinks the way you do politics is beg cretins like Clinton or Biden for more crumbs. If these “progressives” put as much effort into building an actual revolutionary movement as they do into this electoralist hand-wringing, they might have […]
I actually agree with all four statements in this meme, although if you take the top statement to extremes, you may get headhunters, and if you take the bottom statement to extremes, you may get 12-year-olds who want to have an all-night party without any adult supervision.
Regrettably, many on the right cannot get over their love for the carceral state and their lust for a man in uniform.
Because the media is a core element of the New Clerisy, which is aligned with the left-wing of the ruling class, for which the Democratic Party is a political arm.
It can be reasonably argued that Lao-Tzu was the first anarchist.
Yes, there is such a thing as Islamic anarchism.
Julia Tourianski discusses her conversion from atheist/anarcho-capitalism to Tolstoyan/Anabaptist/Orthodox Christian anarchism. Christian anarchism is an important tradition within anarchism that is often overlooked.
I greatly respect both the atheist/anticlerical tradition within anarchism as well as the Christian anarchist tradition and other spiritually-based forms of anarchism. This video makes a compelling case for the anticlerical position, at least as it pertains to the Abrahamic traditions, although these people are not anarchists, just […]
My take on the current crisis is that freedom, health, and economic needs are all important values, and it’s necessary to make reasonable tradeoffs and balances between each of these. I predictably think that a localized approach is the best approach because it’s obviously true that different places […]
Tom Woods takes on the white coat priesthood. Excellent. Listen here. In this episode I cover a lot of ground, albeit a bit haphazardly: the unintended consequences of “lockdown,” the superstitious reverence for “scientists” (who, contrary to popular belief, are not in fact qualified to answer all questions), […]
Available at Amazon.Com In this brochure Öcalan’s political project, the Democratic Confederalism, is developed systematically. A fundamental criticism of the nation state is followed by a description of its possible alternative, a transnational grass-roots democracy. The texts that form this brochure have been compiled from several of Öcalan’s, […]
Available at Amazon.Com This collection of essays strives to answer libertarian questions using authoritarian answers. It critiques libertarian assumptions and offers unintuitive solutions that are fully compatible with non-aggression, private property, and free markets. This book is a much-needed world-view adjustment for any libertarian who has grown intellectually […]
Todd Lewis is joined by Keith Preston, Right Ruminations and Swithun Dobson to discuss the intersection between psychological preferences and political identities.
Tom Woods and Dan McCarthy discuss Dementia Man. Listen here. In the midst of the pandemic Joe Biden has become invisible, even more of a nonentity than usual. Dan McCarthy has an intriguing take on what the mediocre, uninspiring Biden truly represents. Article Discussed “Joe Biden Is The […]
How do you define anarchy? Is it about no government or no “unjust hierarchies” for you? First, let me say that I am only speaking for myself, and not for any organization, or any movement as a whole. I would define anarchism as a form of social […]
Check out Part 1, Part 2, Part 3, Part 4, and Part 5. By Nicky Reid aka Comrade Hermit Exile in Happy Valley You motherfucker! You goddamn, cocksucking, clitlicking, shiteating, dickless, cuntless, gutless, motherfucking piece of fucking shit!! Ahem, sorry about that, dearest motherfuckers, but apparently on day […]
During the 1990s, I began to realize that the American left was increasingly being incorporated into the institutional mainstream, and was becoming entirely co-opted by the ruling class. This was evidenced by, for example, the widespread left-wing support for the US government’s massacre at Waco in 1993, acquiescence […]
