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…
The new president of Argentina calls himself a libertarian, but he is a right-wing libertarian. (The distinction is crucial.) That means, essentially, neo-liberalism on steroids, unchecked and unleashed. Either he…
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…
Abolish the monarchy? A better idea, since it is actually achievable within the relatively near term, is to create a new British constitution, which clearly enshrines – and re-asserts –…
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…
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,…

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…
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…
It’s good to see some of the millennia-old illusions about history being slowly peeled away. To speak of the Roman Empire as, “the world’s greatest killing machine” is refreshingly honest.…
I would emphasize there are better and worse forms of nationalism, but stress that nationalist political-economic policies can be highly beneficial for the people, as opposed to neoliberalism, globalism or…
The globalist corporate elite have announced their plans for the world, via the WEF, the World Economic Forum’s publicly released vision for 2030, among other venues. Their plan is most…
JFK, MLK, The CIA – And The Collapse Of The West Yes, the evidence is clear: the CIA killed JFK, RFK, MLK, and Malcolm X. They are the goons of…
