Nexus X HumectressA 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
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 […]
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 […]
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 […]
Todd Lewis and Keith Preston interview Shayne Hunter, an ex-Antifa organizer.
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. […]
Todd Lewis is joined by Coach Red Pill and Keith Preston to discuss the October Revolution and its historical significance.
Press TV. Listen here. US President Donald Trump’s election victory has galvanized the US Democratic Party, resulting in recent Republican defeats in gubernatorial and mayoral elections, according to an American analyst. Despite enjoying direct support from Trump, Republican contenders this week lost three major head to head battles with […]
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 […]
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 […]
A recent interview. Listen here.
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 […]
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.
Press TV. Listen here. US President Donald Trump’s immigration policies are used a “political weapon” against nations that are not allies of the United States, according to an American analyst. Trump said Wednesday he would renew efforts to terminate a particular immigration program known as the ‘Diversity Immigrant […]
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 […]
A classic lecture from Jeffrey Rogers Hummel
An anti-anarchist discusses what is perhaps the greatest challenge to state abolitionists.
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 […]
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 […]
These are the freakazoids the neocons want to put in power in Iran. By Philip Giraldi American Herald Tribune (From left to right: Maryam Rajavi- Rudy Giuliani and Senator Joe Lieberman at the free Iran Gathering – 1 July 2017. Image credit: Maryam Rajavi/ flickr) If you want […]
Press TV. Listen here. Acts of sexual harassment in positions of power are commonplace in the institutional settings, and in the case of US President Donald Trump, given his background and “lifestyle proclivities” it is “reasonable to assume that these allegations are probably true,” an American analyst and media […]
Todd Lewis makes the case for libertarian socialism. Classical Theist says no.
By J P Cortez Washington, DC (October 27, 2017) — Congressmen Alex Mooney (R-WV) and Frank Lucas (R-OK) today delivered a formal letter to the United States Mint and Secret Service, urging aggressive action on the growing problem of high-quality counterfeits of U.S. precious metals coins entering the […]

By Kate Irby Sacramento Bee The world has been watching the play-by-play of Catalonia’s bid for independence from Spain, but one group is tuning in more closely than most: California secessionists. The California Freedom Coalition, the campaign that has taken the lead in the effort to break California […]
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 […]

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, […]
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, […]
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 […]
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 […]
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 […]
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. […]
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 […]
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. But this would seem to miss the point. The purpose of anarchism is […]
The recent events involving the efforts of Catalonia to separate itself from Spain, and the resulting repression at the hands of the Spanish state, along with the growing prominence of the Kurdish independence movement, have been accompanied by a range of criticisms being levied against both movements. The […]
Someone should do rewrites of these old Communist speeches using modern leftist rhetoric with all kinds of references to transphobia and microagressions. That would be hilarious. “Party comrades, in our peoples’ struggle against the hegemony of heteronormativity we endured the challenges of infinite microagressions that have been foisted […]
Press TV. Listen here. Terror attacks in the US are not confined to certain demographics or religions, but mass shootings are usually carried out by white males, according to an American analyst. “It’s certainly true that white males have committed plenty of terrorism in the United States, particularly […]
In recent years, there has been growing concern in some camps about matters involving police brutality, police militarization, mass incarceration, overcriminalization, electronic surveillance and related matters. The bulk of the concerns of these kinds have come from the left end of spectrum, and raised by those who are […]
Many of these regionalist movements in Europe seem similar to tendencies we have in the US, i.e. either more affluent regions that don’t want to pay taxes to the central government which they view as “too leftist” but have no interest in critiquing state-capitalism per se, or PC […]
Adam Kokesh’s plan to seek the Libertarian Party nomination in 2020 on a program of abolishing the federal government would seem to be a move in the correct direction. However, this idea may be incomplete in various ways. This leads to the need for a consideration of what […]
Adam Kokesh is seeking the LP nomination for 2020 on a program of literally abolishing the US federal government. Here is his platform: The platform is simple. When elected, I will swear in, walk to the White House, and sign one executive order. This executive order will lay […]
This is an interesting discussion by Tom Woods exploring the similarities and differences between Marxist and Austrian class theory. The basis of the discussion is an article by Hans Hermann Hoppe suggesting that Marx was essentially correct about everything but the labor theory of value. This analysis of […]
I rarely write about or discuss religion, but this is an interview I did with a Catholic podcaster named Max Kolbe about the organized atheist movement and its limitations. Other than theism, there weren’t many things we disagreed on.
