By Nicky Reid aka Comrade Hermit Exile in Happy Valley Well folks, it’s that time of year again. The birds are a-chirping, the flowers are a-blooming, and Trotskyites and Stalinists alike are falling head-over-heals in love with the working man like it’s the very first time. That’s right […]

It was not a map in the conventional sense—no scale, no legend, no cities—but a moral topography: a small circle labeled DAVID and, looming beside it, a larger shape labeled GOLIATH. The coastline was suspiciously tidy. The arrows, […]
By Aleksey Bashtavenko Professor Davidor stood before his class with the solemn intensity of a man who believed history had placed him exactly where he belonged—center stage, chalk in hand, civilization on the line. On the board, he had written: DAVID vs. GOLIATH — AGAIN He underlined again […]

By Keith Preston, March 28, 2028 Order the book here. Jeb Smith’s is not merely a historical work—it is an ideological provocation disguised as a corrective narrative.

By Nicky Reid aka Comrade Hermit Exile in Happy Valley Well, it’s official dearest motherfuckers, America has become the world’s largest third world dictatorship. If the first two months of 2026 don’t prove this to you with flying colors than I’m terrified to ask what will. Since Christmas, […]
By Keith Preston January 30, 2026 Every civilization produces authority, and every civilization produces resistance to it.

By Nicky Reid aka Comrade Hermit Exile in Happy Valley It all went off without a hitch. Donald Trump’s huge, beautiful, helicopter coup of 2026. After two years of bungling pretty much everything from tariffs to the Epstein cover-up, our dayglow Caesar rolled the dice in Venezuela, and […]

In January of 2001, Attack the System went live. At the time, it was little more than a personal project—rough, marginal, largely invisible outside a small circle of anarchists, libertarians, and political misfits who were already alienated from the prevailing ideological order.

By Keith Preston December 7, 2025 A report circulating on social media includes the following observations.
