“Political Anarchy” Is How the West Got Rich
By Ryan McMaken Mises Institute It is not uncommon to encounter political theorists and pundits who insist that political centralization is a boon to economic growth. In both cases, it is claimed the presence of a unifying central regime—whether in Brussels or in Washington, DC, for example—is essential […]

Would establishment rather lose to Trump than nominate Bernie?
This was recorded before Super Tuesday, but it’s a good discussion of how the Democratic Party’s elite hope a neoliberal like Biden can beat Trump, but they’re prepared to lose to Trump rather than allow Sanders to have the nomination. Class Interests and Empire First! (and Sanders isn’t […]
The Empire Strikes Back On Super Tuesday & Bloomberg Drops Out
Kulinski gives a pretty good view of what’s happening with the Democrats in this. The DNC, neoliberals, corporate Democrats, and media unite to deflect Sanders’ populism with Lizzie the Scamster playing the role of the spoiler.
Neoliberals Stage a Comeback
In a few decades, if not sooner, “conservatism” in the US will look a lot like the Biden Democrats of today, and “liberalism” will look like the Sanders Democrats. Today’s “conservatives” will assume the same role as the right-wing populist parties in Europe, i.e. loud but rather marginal.
Let’s Not Wake Up Like This
On November 2nd, 2019 at http://www.free-flo.org , Seth Andrews gave this presentation as an encouragement to get the facts, understand ideological opponents, and not lose ourselves in the deafening white noise of online outrage. It’s a speech given in good faith, with the hope that it will also […]

It’s time to stop arguing about ideologies, abstractions, and partisan affiliations, and start building the infrastructure of the future. What will the post-globalization world actually look like?
Why Bernie Sanders’ Communist Misadventures Still Matter
I’m neither a Bernie fan nor a Berniephobe. I tend to think his election to the presidency would be good for the cause of pan-anarchism/pan-secessionism because it would result in an emboldened far left, resentful far right, and demoralized establishment center, resulting in increased fractiousness. I suspect a […]
Will Today Be a Sanders Sweep?
538 seems to think so. I always figured when the voting started in the primaries Sanders would start to do very well. So far, I’ve been right. A Sanders vs. Trump election would be…interesting. The corporate Democrats are certainly circling their wagons at this point (not that they […]
Marxism and Christianity: Analogous or Incompatible?
By Troy Southgate News from Nowhere A NUMBER of political commentators have attempted to make a comparison between Marxism and Christianity, emphasising – and with some justification – that not only does each adhere to the linear mode of history, but that they also contain a series of […]

The Coming Global Debt Crisis?

Why The Holy Roman Empire Was The WEIRDEST Country Ever
The Holy Roman Empire is not only an ironic concept, it’s also weirdly complicated. Learn how many titles the rulers needed to see how cool they were trying to be or why the Emperor’s rule was only semi-optional.

Gabbard responds to speculation about becoming Bernie’s possible VP
If Tulsi were Bernie’s running mate, that would be the best reason to vote for Bernie (not that I am an advocate of electoral politics). Of all the major party candidate, she is head and shoulders above the others. Is she where I am politically? Hell, no. But […]
Tucker: Are we sure America won’t elect a socialist?
Trump came along in 2016 and knocked the Bush-Romney-McCain normal Republicans to the side, then won an upset elect against a veteran establishmentarian. Now, Sanders is successfully challenging the neoliberal Democrats. Will he get the nomination? Will the DNC cheat him out of the nomination? Could Sanders beat […]
Anarchy: More or Less Government?
By Will Schnack Evolution of Consent Compared to monarchy, is democracy more or less government? It seems to depend on who is asked. Some will suggest that democracy is less government than monarchy is, because people have the ability to participate directly in the governing process. Others, however, […]

Aleksey Bashtavenko Academic Comosition This was quite a captivating performance. Regardless of whether you support Brexit or decry it, it’s hard not to identify with the mobilizing passions Nigel Farage appeals to. While it remains an open question whether the UK is better off with the EU or without […]
