What motivates people to take unpopular stands? After all, whatever the herd rewards promotes the individual, so those who make popular statements get ahead. In any field, and any political viewpoint, some ideas are more popular because they are more convenient. Consider for example the modern neoconservative or neoliberal. They want a Leftist society funded […]
In Groundbreaking Find, Three Kinds of Early Humans Unearthed Living Together in South Africa Humanity follows a pattern: one group breaks away from the rest, does something exceptional, and then the rest absorb it, slowly boosting their own abilities. This worked to a point, because at the arc of its cycle, it stops adding capability […]
Gone Girl, the novel by Gillian Flynn and subsequent film directed by David Fincher, may unintentionally be one of the most “red-pilled” novels of the last decade. The storyline follows the toxic relationship and power struggle of Nick and Amy Dunne, a modern every-couple. Amy Dunne, the Shakespearean “scorned woman,” goes on a furious, tactical […]
Historical Note: In 1348, a great mind of the Florentine Renaissance, Giovanni Boccaccio, got to live The Black Death first hand. He survived and the muse sang to him dark music. So much so that he composed a work of short stories that were told over ten days while a fictional group of survivors self-quarantined […]
For some years, conservatives have longed for a “Berlin 1945 moment” for modern society, which is the toxic stew of egalitarianism, liberal democracy, utilitarianism, and market socialism. We realize that the good life — understanding the world as beautiful and cultivating excellence within ourselves to match — cannot resurrect itself until we cast aside the […]
Samuel Taylor Coleridge may have been a Romantic Poet rather than a biological expert. He succeeds, however, in telling us more about what unrestricted human surjection upon the ecology does to us than anyone other than maybe Garrett Hardin. He correctly indicts the sick immorality of failing to display the proper reverent respect for the […]
‘Messiah’ Canceled By Netflix After One Season Selling to a multicultural market is harder than big business thinks; in fact, it is impossible, because without a majority, you only have niche products, and many of those offend other groups such as Muslims: According to the report, the popular series faced backlash because al-Masih subtextually refers […]
Hitler as Philosophe: Remnants of the Enlightenment in National-Socialism by Lawrence Birken Praeger, 1995. 128 pages. $45 The topic of Hitler, even beyond National Socialism itself, is perhaps only on par to what the Devil and Witches used to be during the Middle Ages and the Early Modern Period. Few are able to approach the […]
Amazon fires warehouse worker who staged walkout Amazon decides it does not want unions. While many of us are not huge Amazon fans, since it follows the dot-com pattern of replacing existing industries and then becoming abusive, especially since it began censorship of the books and items it sells, we can see here the failure […]
When computers first came into the public eye, many of us were fascinated by them because they could serve as reality models. Not just games like Taipan or Oregon Trail, where one lived out real scenarios, or even Game of Life, a simulator of unicellular organisms. It was fun to write code to generate these […]
For those who keep track of the Fenian Question, a recent on the Semitic origins of the Irish may have attracted attention: DNA researchers found that the three skeletons found under Currie’s pub are the ancestors of modern Irish people and predate the Celts’ arrival on Irish shores by around 1,000 years. Essentially, Irish DNA […]
Hungary passes law allowing Viktor Orban to rule by decree The liberal democratic order has failed in its response to the coronavirus, following its attempts to subvert popular votes with Brexit and TrumpRise. This means that it will end. The Left wants to destroy the world economy in order to transition to socialism, but the […]
Cabin fever grips the world as we hunker down for self-isolation in a pandemic. The real epidemic, in many eyes, comes in the form of the confusion that we experience, not knowing what sources to trust and what to believe. Government, media, and academia/science seem certain that this will be the end of us all. […]
We are fortunate at Amerika to be able to present the second installation of the exciting dystopia saga, Crosses & Double-Crosses by Clayton Barnett. You can find your copy on the Jungle River store, but first, read this week’s segment of the story, “Treason.” Sylvia walked slowly next to the older man in a dark […]
Historical Note: In 1348, a great mind of the Florentine Renaissance, Giovanni Boccaccio, experienced The Black Death first hand. He survived and the muse sang to him dark music. So much so that he composed a work of short stories that were told over ten days while a fictional group of survivors self-quarantined to avoid […]
‘Riots happen because we tend to romanticize chaos’ Would most humans kill other humans if there were no punitive authority? That is a fascinating question, but inessential to the column for now, though it will be interesting to ask yourself what are the crimes you will commit if you are absolutely sure you will get […]
I am fortunate to be featured on the pages of American Renaissance with a new article, “Benevolent Xenophobia,” which posits that our choice between benevolent xenophobia and tolerance that ends in xenocide should come down hard on the side of benevolent xenophobia. As many know, I have developed this concept among others for my second […]
It’s been a couple of years at least since I’ve believed in the unambiguous good of Amerika. OD on The Black Pills and it’s over for your Tolkienesque Fairyland visions of The Old Red, White and Azul. That being stipulated, it’s undeniably true that our ambiguous good can still kick some pretty serious can. This […]
Why do rightwing populist leaders oppose experts? “Experts” are those who affirm the Narrative, or the contra-reality created to control people because democracy is fundamentally unstable. If you do not say what the System needs, you will never make it to “expert” status, while lots of mediocre people just go out there and find creative […]
Most of us on the Right, no matter how racist, remain pretty ambivalent about slavery if not outright opposed. After all, taking people from their native lands, bringing them to a strange place, stripping them of their names and culture, and making them into forced chattel labor seems inhuman. We can mention mitigating factors, like […]
Christchurch mosque attacker Brenton Tarrant changes plea to guilty, to be sentenced for 51 murders Looking gaunt and haggard, he changed his plea instead of using a trial to demonstrate what he believed. Perhaps like many he has seen the inside of the system and realized that it is awful and soul-killing, and just wants […]
Guys and gals, we have an ¡EMERGENCY! What is this ¡EMERGENCY!? A pandemic in the form of a respiratory virus on cattle steroids, known as Novel Coronavirus, Covid19, or maybe The Wuhan Wipeout. I was kidding about the whole Wuhan Wipeout thing. I’d sure hate to see The Thought Police get offended. Whatever we call […]
Just like the government shutdown, the coronavirus has frozen most of society in place, and this not only provides for a saner life but shows us what we do not need. Maybe the permanent government dependents are freaking out, since they lose services. Perhaps big business is suffering, although it seems that around here at […]
Morgan Stanley Says 30% GDP Fall in Q2 It turns out that mass panic and sending everyone home basically cuts out most commercial activity, so your economy crashes. This may have created the deepest economic shock in history. Our government has responded with a correspondingly massive stimulus including $367 billion for small business so that […]
Decay occurs in stages, mirroring the plateaus by which societies rise. First a society succeeds, and then with pressures released, all the bad in humanity which we put up with in order to have “unity” comes to the fore, and the mob rules. It declares individualism and other positive things, then waits. These ideas saturate […]
