Nexus X HumectressAmerican Foreign Policy #8: End of History and the War on Terror
Todd Lewis and I will wrap up our eight part series on US foreign policy covering the “End of History” and the War on Terror.
Left and Right: The Prospects for Liberty
It’s always great to go back and revisit this classic essay by Murray Rothbard that I think offers some of the best analysis of modern ideological history yet devised. In this work, Rothbard is analyzing the origin and meaning of the terms Left and Right, arguing correctly that […]
Revisions and Dissents: Essays
I highly recommend this book for anyone who wants to know what the true intellectual Right actually is. And I say that not just because there is a chapter discussing my own work where Dr. Gottried graciously compares me with Noam Chomsky, William Appleman Williams, C. Wright Mills, […]
Zimbabwe crisis: Did China give nod to army takeover?
The bosses of the Eastern wing of global gangster capitalism apparently decided to take out an unreliable capo. By Adrian Blomfield The Telegraph The general behind Zimbabwe’s coup may have sought Chinese approval days before the army launched its takeover of Robert Mugabe’s government, it emerged on Wednesday. […]
The Hezbollah Model Wins
The model that all anarchists and anti-statists need to be studying. One of our objectives should be to develop non-state political and militia confederations that will usurp many of the functions currently provided by states, with the goal of eventually superseding states. By William S. Lind Traditional Right […]
Texas Town Fires Police Dept., Hires Private Citizens For Security — Guess What Happened to Crime?
We need for anarchists to start running for mayor of cities and towns with this as part of their platform. I’m serious. Truth Fight. The community of Sharpstown, Texas decided that they didn’t need the police any longer. They made a controversial decision to fire the local police department […]
Porn Star Cherie DeVille and Rapper Coolio Announce White House 2020 Bid
Our time has come. It’s time to start building the coalition against consensual crimes.

[…]
Top 10 Ways to Fix the Criminal Justice System
While many of these suggestions may be reasonable as far as modest reforms go, and some of these proposals are actually pretty far reaching, one thing that many “liberal” criminal justice reformers seem to have trouble figuring out is the need for fewer laws in the first place. […]
The Democrats Are The Prototypical Statist Party
Aleksey Bashtavenko Academic Composition I am noticing that this kind of a thing happens only in liberal states. This is where the government is trying to prevent citizens from doing charitable work as a way of creating demand for the inefficient welfare services. The Democratic Party is categorically […]
The Problem With Anarchism – An Open-Minded Challenge
A challenge to anarchists from what appears to be some kind of liberal or left perspective. The first problem I see with these arguments is that they do not address the actual costs of statism. By Jared C. Willis Steemit
The Problem With Anarchism
A minarchist challenge to the anarchist position. Frankly, the anarchist vs. minarchist debate has never interested me much because both positions are so far from where we are now it’s hardly a pressing issue. Let’s just keeping chipping away at the state until the last one out turns […]
Alt-Right and the Left’s response – Angela Nagle about ‘Kill all Normies’
The Internet is the battleground for the revival of culture wars, says author and journalist Angela Nagle in her recently published book Kill All Normies. In De Balie Nagle chronicles the rise of the alt-right and how the worst of the internet went mainstream. But she doesn’t spare […]
The Alt-Right: History, Ideology, and the Future of a Fascist Movement
An interesting and generally accurate discussion of the Alt-Right from a far left perspective. As one who was present at the time of the founding of the Alt-Right, and has remained peripherally associated with the Alt-Right milieu ever since, I have developed my own perspective on the role […]
Praise of Folly Podcast Interview #14: Shayne Hunter, Ex-Antifa
Todd Lewis and Keith Preston interview Shayne Hunter, an ex-Antifa organizer.
The USA is Becoming Latin America in Class Relations
It’s interesting how the US is developing a class system similar to Latin America. I don’t think the reasons for this can be traced to a singular cause. It probably has several dozen causes. It’s also interesting how all the different political factions have their proposed ideal solutions. […]
Praise of Folly Podcast #37: October Revolution 100 Years in Review
Todd Lewis is joined by Coach Red Pill and Keith Preston to discuss the October Revolution and its historical significance.
Keith Preston: Trump’s presidency has galvanized Democrats

Too Quickly Forgotten: Communism’s Corpses
Isn’t it interesting that the Antifa just can’t seem to get all that worked up about any of this? By Doug Bandow CATO Institute Among America’s more important actors and singers is Paul Robeson, born a century ago. An impressive talent who struggled against pervasive racism, Robeson would […]
“Antifa Activists As The Truest Defenders Of Free Speech” a.k.a. “Work Makes You Free”
And the North Koreans are the truest defenders of “democracy,” no doubt, just like “work makes you free.” I am posting this here in order to provide an illustration of the delusional nonsense that regrettably dominates much of the “far left” anarchist milieu (although this guy is arguably […]

The Middle Class is a Prerequisite For True Democracy
By Aleksey Bashtavenko AcademicComposition In the Republic, Plato propounded the Philosopher King thesis, where he argued in favor of the following doctrines. (1) The most intellectually capable of individuals should be in charge of governing society. (2) Private property should be abolished. (3) The individual’s role in society […]
9 Types of People Attracted to Anarchist Groups
There’s a lot of commonalities, but there’s a lot of very specific factors that can lead people towards the ANTIFA and BAMN type communities. I’ve known countless people like this, so I figured I could shed some light on the subject.

Todd Lewis interviews Lierre Keith on her reasons for leaving Veganism and BioRegionalism.
Keith Preston: Trump’s immigration policies used against non-allied nations

Tasnim TEHRAN (Tasnim) – An American political analyst dismissed the US government’s claim that Iran has violated the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA), describing it as part of attempts to undermine Iran as an obstacle to the creation of the American-Israeli co-prosperity sphere. The US administration accuses […]

Why Anarchists Are DEAD Wrong on National Defense
An anti-anarchist discusses what is perhaps the greatest challenge to state abolitionists.
President Trump’s Fateful Choice
The Trump administration is Republican business as usual, as virtually all serious observers predicted it would be. The great thing about the Trump presidency is not only is Trump generally unpopular outside of his dying right-wing of the WASP middle class “base,” but he is demonstrating that Presidents […]
The Role of Counseling in Preventing Acts of Crime
There are different types of criminal acts. Some are casual, unpredictable and opportunistic like a bag snatching or a smartphone lift from a club when someone rested their phone on the mahogany bar just for a second. Other times, crimes are planned well in advance, gestated for long […]
The Rise of MEK/NCRI in Washington: Pay Off The Right People and You Are No Longer A Terrorist

Keith Preston: Status and power shields US elites from sexual allegations
Press TV. Listen here.

California secessionists think their path to independence is easier than Catalonia’s

The California Freedom Coalition, the campaign that has taken the lead in the effort to break California […]
The real roots of early city states may rip up the textbooks
By Ben Collyer New Scientist The 11,000-year-old Göbekli Tepe was an amazingly complex find Vincent J Musi/National Geographic Creative By Ben Collyer THE emergence of state authority was a logical consequence of the move to settled agriculture, or so we thought. Until recently, we also assumed that ancient […]

Does Universal Basic Income Require a State?
By Lexi Linnell Center for a Stateless Society Recently, Vishal Wilde advocated for a universal basic income (UBI) on the grounds that it promotes economic freedom and social justice. Indeed, UBI has long been attractive to libertarians of various stripes. However, this idea suffers from the problem that, […]
Panarchy: Political Theories of Non-Territorial States
An interesting book review. By Vlad Tarko The Independent Review One of the most important and difficult problems in political economy is how to overcome the social and political costs of heterogeneity and enjoy the cultural and economic benefits of diversity. People’s preferences differ on numerous margins, and, […]
Hans-Hermann Hoppe, Libertarianism and the “Alt-Right”
Apparently, Hoppe is still taking the paleo line as far as advancing libertarianism is concerned. I am increasingly skeptical of this idea given that most rightists seem to be tribal-nationalists first and/or cultural traditionalists first, and libertarians at best a distant second (or third, fourth, or not at […]
Secession Is Sweeping the World, and We Should Let It
By Jennifer Maffesanti Foundation for Economic Education We’re seeing a huge uptick in provinces and territories seeking independence from their parent countries all over the globe. I already wrote about Catalonia — a dramatic situation that is still ongoing — but they are by no means the only […]
What is the Ruling Class?
An excellent general introduction to class theory from an anti-statist perspective. By Sean Gabb In delivering this speech, I make no pretence to originality of thought. Everything I am saying today has been said already – usually better, and always in greater detail – by Hans-Hermann Hoppe, by […]
Why there is no way back for religion in the West: David Voas
I suspect this fellow is probably right in the sense that the West will eventually resemble China or Japan, where religion plays only a very marginal social or cultural role. I don’t think that’s good or bad, just a probability. Religion is in decline across the Western world. […]
The Accidental Anarchist: Carne Ross
Wouldn’t it be awesome to see this guy participating in the presidential debates? A former British diplomat in the lead up to the Iraq war, Carne experienced first-hand the lies and self-serving discourse of political power. After a profound crisis, he began a quest for a more just […]

Who Gets Counted as a “True” Anarchist?
Incessant debate rages among self-proclaimed anarchists concerning who should be counted as a “true” anarchist, with proponents of each of the many kinds of anarchism claiming the right to special recognition of their particular sect.
