I’ve written extensively and in depth, for decades, in two published books and over a thousand published articles, with tens of thousands of references, on the rapidly shifting state of the world, the causes and major factors and historical unfolding of these changes, what it all means and entails, and

Writings of J. Todd Ring: A Trump Presidency In 2025: Fascism, National Rebirth, Or Civil War?
Let me start by saying that I speak from the libertarian left – meaning, I fiercely believe in freedom, compassion, voluntary mutual aid, decentralization, and the sovereignty of individuals, communities, and nations. (Anarchism, I would urge, but only, “when men are prepared for it”, as Thoreau said – simply a
Continue readingWritings of J. Todd Ring: Defeat The Fascists! Unite The People Now!
The anti-authoritarian grassroots left and right are uniting – at last, as I’ve been urging for decades; and which is absolutely necessary, if we are to halt and reverse our current trajectory toward globalist corporate-fascism. Listen carefully to the interview with Russell Brand, from the libertarian left, talking with Tucker

(Written this morning as an open letter to a fine independent journalist) Patrick, I found you on 21st Century Wire and was very impressed. Before I listen to this TNT talk on Rumble, and get a glimpse of your focus now, or foci, I want to say what comes to

A few thoughts on the recent, very thoughtful and interesting discourse and debate, between Professors Brookes and Wolff, linked in the video below: To Professor Wolff:Bravo – brilliant crystalization. To Professor Brookes:Great respect for your human decency and moral sentiment of basic justice and compassion, certainly, but are you not

Travelling the world recently again, I am struck by the staggering ignorance among the great majority of people in the world, as to what Canada is like today. All of them, with rare exceptions, seem to think this is 1974. They think of Canada as a rich, First World country,
Continue readingWritings of J. Todd Ring: Trump Hysteria
Trump did little good in his first term as US President, and much that was bad – but he didn’t turn the US into a fascist police state: Cheney, Obama and Biden did that. I am no Trump supporter, but the establishment political elite of the two dominant US parties
Continue readingWritings of J. Todd Ring: Renaissance, Resistance & Revolution
In terms of social movements, the Left is dead, for the time being, at least in the formerly industrialized, formerly “leading”, “developed”, First World nations of the (North-) West. The reason it is dead, is because it has been seduced into supporting authoritarianism, and has thereby been co-opted by the
Continue readingWritings of J. Todd Ring: Global Tectonic Shift: The Rise Of China & The Collapse Of The West
To more deeply understand China’s rise, and the decline of the West, see my essay, The Failure Of Propaganda & The Resort To Fascism, which traces the history of the last 60 years. But I will summarize this global tectonic shift, or major parts of it, here. Hold onto your
Continue readingWritings of J. Todd Ring: Political Philosophy & The Future Of Humanity – In A Nutshell
I will be brief. Fuller elaborations I have already made elsewhere. Here is the gist. Excellent talk, this is, in the video linked below, but incorrect here: “Nobody in the West is presenting an alternative.” I did. See my books, Enlightened Democracy, and, The People vs The Elite. Also, China’s
Continue readingWritings of J. Todd Ring: The 21st Century Crisis Of Civilization
This is a reading list, not an article. I cannot repeat myself endlessly! Quality over quantity. Excellent discussion here in the video below, but the discussion has a glaring avoidance of the political dimension. Such one-sided approaches are frankly doomed to failure, at least now, at this time in history,
Continue readingWritings of J. Todd Ring: The Global Fascist Coup: Time To Face Reality
We need to stop making the irrational and unfounded, anti-empirical assumption that the corporate and financial elite are stupid – they are demonstrably sociopathic, but they are not stupid, as a class – and it would be stupid of them to not cooperate and coordinate, orchestrate, plan and carry out
Continue readingWritings of J. Todd Ring: Yo, Podcasters! Read This.
An excellent, important video was the inspiration for this short post (linked here, below) from a generally lackluster podcast. The musings arising after watching the video, however, I would say are even more important. The podcast host asked for video ideas at the end of his presentation. Here is my
Continue readingWritings of J. Todd Ring: What Is The Populist Right?
Neoliberals, “progressives”, and the neo-Maoist faux-Left, of which, neoliberals and so-called progressives form the core part, rabidly slander, dehumanize and demonize the populist right. But what, in reality, in truth, is the populist right, what are their core shared values as a political movement, who are they, and how can

Who rules the world? Two empires, which are in reality, two crime syndicates, the biggest in history, now dominate, and effectively rule over most nations on Earth: the corporate-fascist empire, which is the oligarchy that is based in North America, Britain and Europe, centred in Davos, at the World Economic

Or, The Big Picture: Economic Strength vs Economic Insolvency: US, Canada and Uruguay compared Uruguayan national debt in 2023:$40 billion USD(52% of GDP) Canadian national debt in 2023:$1.4 trillion USDOr$1,400 billion USD US national debt in 2023:Roughly $30 trillionOr$30,000 billion(Not including corporate and household debt, which brings the total to

Climate change is real, but the WEF billionaire-run, corporate-fascist oligarchy is not the saviour of humanity or the Earth – they are the principle devourers of both. We need to be perfectly clear on that. We do need a Green New Deal, but one that promotes, defends and strengthens freedom,
Continue readingWritings of J. Todd Ring: Uniting The People – Yes, it’s happening
Jimmy Dore, from the populist left, and Tucker Carlson, from the grassroots centre-right, can not only have a conversation, but a respectful one – and furthermore, they are allies and friends. This is exactly what we need. As I said, in the title of my second book, it is now
Continue readingWritings of J. Todd Ring: Elon Musk, Alex Jones, X – and Freedom
Twitter / X and Elon Musk have reaffirmed their upholding of the inalienable human right to freedom of speech. This is extremely important, and extremely good. “I’m generally against evil propaganda machines. They can go to hell.” Freedom is fundamental. That includes freedom of speech. Because if we lose freedom

“Progressivism” as social engineering for billionaire elites’ increased power and control – that is its history and origin, and that continues to be its nature today. But don’t take anybody’s word on things. Examine things for yourself. Think for yourself. Question everything. See also, my essay, When Liberals and The
