Nexus X HumectressBy Roosh V. Successful political and social agitation by the progressive movement has cemented such gains that men can now be considered institutionally oppressed in America, even according to feminist definitions of oppression. Here are three definitions: From a Slutwalk Wiki: Institutional oppression is the systematic mistreatment of […]
Thought Catalog t truly is amazing how things have “progressed” in this day and age. For all of the advancements in science, technology, medicine, and various other things, it seems when it comes to the social foray, things have degenerated quite significantly. There is more hypersensitivity about…well…pretty much […]
Distractify 1 . We associate rape with accidents Source: rawstory.com Barbara Listing, an anti-abortion leader, argued that Michigan women should be forced to pay extra for health insurance to cover the cost of rape. According to Barbara, no one plans to get into a car accident or to […]
An interesting piece from a liberal “race realist” who argues that many of the conventional claims of race realists would justify liberal social policies. By Anatoly Carlin This may be the article I’ve hesitated longest over publishing. Its subject matter has always hovered as a specter over my […]
This is an interesting discussion of Carol Swain’s book on white nationalism from Patheos. See here. Carol Swain is a black law professor at Vanderbilt whose book is the best book I know of on white nationalism from a non-white nationalist perspective (and possibly the best book on […]
In my judgment, this is the most serious domestic issue that the United States currently faces, and one that transcends the normal barriers of class, race, gender, and political ideology. The police state is the enemy of all Americans. John Whitehead is one of the very best writers […]
Reuploaded video since the original video titled “Athens: Anarchist Riot Greetings for 2015 [Jingle Bells]” combined the sound of the Streets and Jingle Bells by Frank Sinatra, but on 25/9/2015 UMG (Universal Music Group) muted the video on copyright claiming grounds, so the song was forced to be […]
Press TV. Listen here: http://www.presstv.ir/Detail/2015/12/20/442472/US-China-South-China-Sea The United States wants access to oil and gas reserves in the South China Sea, Keith Preston said. The United States’ dispute with China in the contested South China Sea is over access to the vast oil and gas reserves in the strategic […]
Here we have totalitarian humanism at its finest. This is an example why a serious radical movement must effectively purge political correctness. This stuff is simply the modern version of bluenoses like Anthony Comstock, Carrie Nation, Billy James Hargis, the Moral Majority or Rev. Fred Phelps. Anyone with […]
This is why serious radicals need to attack the system on its left flank rather than its right flank. The Left is a rising force, the Right is a dying force. Why waste time on an enemy that’s on it’s deathbed? By Sean Illing Salon.Com (Credit: Reuters/Joshua Lott) […]
This article’s analysis is consistency with what I have long been saying about the trajectory the New Left has followed. In the post-Vietnam War period, the New Left abandoned whatever radical inclinations it ever had, and gradually became incorporated into the apparatus of the Democratic Party and traditional […]
By Joris Leverink ROAR Magazine In 2004, Kurdish leader Öcalan reached out to Murray Bookchin from his prison cell, where he had been studying the work of the American radical thinker. Their correspondence is now made public for the first time. The Bookchin-Öcalan correspondence has been published as […]
When it comes to electoral politics, I’m generally of the “worse is better” school. For instance, I’m inclined to root for Mrs. Clinton in 2016, for the simple reason that she is a reviled figure across the entire spectrum of the Right and the genuine (anti-imperialist, anti-capitalist) Left. […]
About a year ago, I published a piece calling for the creation of a coalition against consensual crime laws, which have long been a pet peeve of Libertarians. I was thinking of this earlier when a social media friend made the following observation concerning Libertarians: No one will […]
As virtually everyone knows, I am a radical pan-anarchist that favors breaking up the global corporatocracy and the nation-states that are its component parts into autonomous regions, federations, cities, communes, and local communities. As an anarchist, I don’t much care for government of any kind, but I prefer […]
A piece by Colin Liddell from 2012 on the growth of the National Front in France. I have a cautiously qualified sympathy for the National Front, and I consider them to be among the most left-wing of any European political party with any kind of influence. The FN […]
This is a talk by Sam Dickson from the NPI meeting a couple months ago where Sam describes the people of the American South as a unique ethnic identity, and how the South was among the early victims of U.S. imperialism. For obvious reasons, the inclusion of the […]
David Brin raises what I think are some of the better criticisms of the neo-reactionary philosophy. I appreciate the neo-reactionaries. Mass democracy and “democratic equality” are the state religions of modern liberal-capitalist regimes, and the core component of their self-legitimating ideological superstructure. When folks ranging from the neocons […]
Many of my right-wing readers will no doubt consider this piece by leftist anti-racist Tim Wise to be blasphemy, but it’s an interesting summary of the arguments for “race realism” and the counter arguments offered by the Left. By Tim Wise Some things are so predictable that you […]

This is an interesting critique of Kevin Carson’s individualist-anarchism/mutualism by former Trotskyist turned anarcho-communist Wayne Price. Carson’s reply to Price’s review can be found here. By Wayne Price Anarkismo.Net This is a review of Kevin Carson’s “Studies in Mutualist Political Economy”. Carson seeks to revive individualist anarchist economic […]
This really nails it. World Socialist Website After over 14 years of unending US wars of aggression waged in the name of fighting terrorism, humanitarian intervention and promoting “democracy,” the threat posed to mankind by the eruption of American militarism has never been so acute. In Syria, Washington […]
This is what anarchists and other radicals should be focusing on, not “microaggressions.” Abby Martin interviews retired U.S. Army Colonel Lawrence Wilkerson, former national security advisor to the Reagan administration, who spent years as an assistant to Secretary of State Colin Powell during both Bush administrations. Today, he […]
During the peak of my ultra-leftist phase about 25 years ago, I recall telling a friend of the Republican persuasion that the ideal GOP society would have the foreign policy of Nazi Germany, the economy of Guatemala, and the civil liberties of the Soviet Union. Regrettably, I seem […]
By Dr. Sean Gabb Libertarian Alliance Writing in the Daily Telegraph on the 10th December 2015, two Members of Parliament – Frank Field and Nicholas Soames – regret the cancellation, in 2010, of the previous Labour Government’s identity card scheme.

By Ted Rall SkewedNews.Net Skewed News — Senator Ted Cruz, by most measures the second most popular presidential candidate among Republican primary voters after Donald Trump, is catching flak for his call to carpet-bomb ISIS. Granted, Cruz’s understanding of warfare isn’t sophisticated. Called out on the fact that […]
By William T. Hathaway Prisons are one of the few growth industries in the USA today. They are becoming money-making institutions, and profits are rising. New ones are being built and old ones expanded to hold all the new slave laborers being captured. The prison-industrial complex is the […]
U.S. elections increasingly remind me of the electoral system that existed in El Salvador in the 1980s, where the two parties were an astoundingly incompetent centrist party (Jose Napoleon Duarte’s Christian Democrats) and an utterly insane bloodthirsty neo-fascist party (Roberto d’Aubuisson’s ARENA-Nationalist Republican Alliance). So I guess the […]
Press TV. Listen here: http://www.presstv.com/Detail/2015/12/16/441940/GOP-incompetent-leaders The GOP party consists of “incompetent leaders that are being elevated to the top of the political class,” Keith Preston said in an interview with Press TV on Wednesday. The irresponsible statements made by Republican presidential candidates underscore the level of competence in […]
From the Atlantic. A thorough overview of the much-maligned militant-Muslim Männerbund. What is the Islamic State? Where did it come from, and what are its intentions? The simplicity of these questions can be deceiving, and few Western leaders seem to know the answers. In December, The New York […]
Some constructive criticism from Charles Glass. A French news cameraman burst into the bar of Beirut’s Commodore Hotel, where his colleagues gathered most evenings, on November 17, 1983. “At last,” he shouted, cupping both hands upward, “someone with balls!” French warplanes had just bombed the town of […]
Islam, immigration, and interventionism. I’ll be incorporating a response to the Ann-xieties expressed here (and elsewhere) into a future Infernal episode. There’s a lot of raspberrying and dismissiveness in the debate over whether to let the wave of “Syrian” “refugees” wash up on U.S. shores. In the partisan […]
In a better world, Paul would be POTUS. (In an >even< better world, the concept of a POTUS – and other national equivalents – would remain just that.)

By Stefan Gleason Is America on the cusp of a revolution that will usher in a new monetary order? The lessons of history tell us that no fiat currency retains its value for long or lasts forever. And as Shakespeare noted, “what’s past is prologue.” Major episodes in […]
This is interesting. Apparently, Trump’s supporters are a small but vocal minority. Gallup.Com by Andrew Dugan Story Highlights Trump’s net favorable stands at -27, well below others Ben Carson has seen largest gain in overall public familiarity Chris Christie’s image improves modestly WASHINGTON, D.C. — The 2016 presidential […]
I’m generally inclined to trust the results of a Gallup poll on issues like this. Not only is Gallup a generally reputable polling company, but the company was founded by evangelical Christians and leans to the center-right politically, so it’s unlikely they would be inclined to skew the […]

One of our readers, “John S.,” raises what might be the most pertinent questions regarding the future of anarchism, and the other ideas we discuss here at ATS. I think if anarchy became significantly popular, and actually started to effect politics, economics and/or social issues, it would be […]
By John McWhorter Opposition to racism used to be a political stance. Now it has every marking of a religion, with both good and deleterious effects on American society. An anthropology article from 1956 used to get around more than it does now, “Body Ritual Among the Nacirema.” […]
The media represents the various factions of the power elite: FOX and the WSJ represent the “conservative” wing of the ruling class, the traditional networks, WaPo and CNN represent the centrist sectors of the power elite, and MSNBC and HuffPo represent the liberal wing of the elite. All […]
A talk from anarcho-communist Wayne Price. He’s half-way there. Add to Price’s statement this statement from a libertarian group: “Right/Left, small “L” and big “L” libertarians are welcome. Libertarian Socialists. Ancaps, Ancoms, and other anarchist types are welcome, as well. Objectivists, Agorists, Georgists… Constitutional and Conservative libertarians …As […]
A recent lecture by Chomsky. Presented by Haymarket Books and the Schools of Public Engagement (http://www.newschool.edu/public-engag…) at The New School (http://www.newschool.edu), Noam Chomsky discusses the persistent and largely invariant features of U.S. foreign policy — in the words of U.S. planners, “the overall framework of order” — and […]
Ian Mayes recently offered the following comments: I have a theory that in about 20 years, if not sooner, the word “anarchist” will primarily be associated with the anarcho-capitalists. This is because the anarcho-capitalists are very vocal and persistent in claiming to be anarchists, especially on the internet. […]
Justin Raimondo has the best critique of Donald Trump to date. Trump’s politics are on the level of a bunch of frat guys talking at keg part, but Trump’s not nearly as much of a “fascist” as the neocons-or Franklin Delano Roosevelt. By Justin Raimondo Antiwar.Com The latest […]
