The W.E.I.R.D. countries — Western, Educated, Industrialized, Rich and Democratic — all seem to hate themselves. In these countries, the contrarian ironist position that nothing is as it seems and the conjectural is more real than reality itself seems to be popular. Despite the many pundits and experts writing, they might as well be trying […]
~~~ A short-term work visa shows the benefits of immigration The Economist argues for more Irish immigration, despite Irish being the most likely to overstay their visas, and without noting that cheap foreign labor displaces native labor into office jobs that lower sperm count, increase anomie, and turn people into alienated zombies browsing Amazon while […]
Something went wrong with the modern world. Instead of liberating us from power, it dedicated us to fighting over power, and warnings quickly went out that most people cannot handle power and in fact will turn it into horrors. When power forgets its purpose, which is to increase the well-being of its people, it becomes […]
~~~ A Minnesotan Sizes Up Tim Walz No wonder the Left needed to bump him up to vice presidential candidate: Walz failed in Minnesota because he aimed to avoid controversy by making enforcement soft on diversity and handing out lots of bennies. This crashed the state economy, wrecked the schools, and made their streets into […]
If you find yourself in the grocery store, you may hit one of those moments where you are trying to recall the thing you need that you should have written on your grocery list but failed to do so because the phone rang, the infant squalled, or your buddy stopped by with a new IPA […]
~~~ After Walz pick, US could have its first-ever Native American woman governor Harris picks Walz because he is an open borders advocate who encouraged BLM to destroy cities. That makes him a perfect symbolic choice, the cucked whitish guy who comes from a delusional hugbox like Minnesota, where Slavic and Irish admixture drove everyone […]
The door opens to a shadowed smile. The man there resembles all of us and none of us. Round features, round head, and a stocky but curved frame make him universal and ambiguous. He steps into the room softly with the gentlest of manners yet leaves no impression other than the prosaic fact that a […]
~~~ Mosque leaders find moments of hope after violent disorder Dr Hamid, who works as a GP in a deprived area of Liverpool, said: “The far right are a spectrum so there are those who are very, very extreme but there are people who have certain issues, whether political or personal, and they need to […]
Someone mentioned this in the comments, so it is worth demonstrating here how a Black lawsuit changed indentured servitude into chattel slavery: Casor was originally an indentured servant, which meant he was practically a slave in some senses. But what was bought or sold wasn’t him, it was his contract of indenture, which obligated him […]
~~~ You Are the Enemy The Left calls all of its enemies “racists,” but only Leftists can define “racist,” and anyone who resists is by definition “racist” (a process called kafkatrapping The Left’s Fragile Foundations Despite all of their wailing about Citizens United, Leftists depend extensively on non-profit foundations and NGOs for their funding, and […]
Pipe smokers talk reverently of certain blends even a century after their inception. One such blend is Dunhill Nightcap, a variety of the “English blend” — Virginias, (originally Syrian) Latakia, and “Orientals” or Turkish-style tobaccos — which tastes like a spice cookie set on fire. Nightcap adds one twist, which is the inclusion of Perique, […]
~~~ Teen, 17, accused of Southport murders named The diversity jihad decides to murder young girls with knives, following up on its success in Rotherham, Rochdale, and West Yorkshire. CenterPoint went big on seldom-used mobile generators. $800 million later, it needs smaller ones Houston power grid prepared for the last crisis, which was low supply […]
Think back to America between the time of Star Wars and Revenge of the Nerds. The 1970s made geek stuff cool again, but by the time we hit the mid-1980s, the narrative was of the high-scoring nerd kids taking on the popular jocks and destroying them. These movies would strike as anomalous now because the […]
~~~ Trump Questions Harris’s Racial Identity, Saying She Only ‘Became Black’ Recently Hybrids erase the original group. QueMala Harris is what results. Supporting her as “Black” calls for the erasure of all Africans. How Thousands of Middlemen Are Gaming the H-1B Program No part of our immigration system is anything but a cash-in. The problem […]
Most of us have no idea what happens after the current system fails. It either becomes a worthless third world state like Brazil or Russia, or it rises above the ruins of democracy into something different. It makes no sense to say “new”; there are no new political systems, only combining different parts of each, […]
~~~ The major Atlantic current that keeps Northern Europe warm could have new variations and tipping points Science clowns admit that a new mini-ice-age is coming, and blame “climate change.” Hidden gatekeepers: How hiring bias affects workers in the food service industry Whenever something goes wrong, blame bias. This is the universal explanation for all […]
A realist expects most people to be hamsters. They seek solely some way that they can explain the world to themselves that lets them function the next day. They are rationalizing their position as good at all times so that they can avoid doubt. Their concern is maintaining their mental state, not achieving anything out […]
~~~ McDonald’s executives admit diners think prices are too high, say they’re working to create value When government taxes or imposes costs through regulations, two things happen: first, costs are passed on down to the consumer, and second, the purchasing power of the currency declines because it is based on demand-side economics, where infinite demand […]
When they do the postmortem on the Age of Symbolism, they will record that symbolic thinking allows people to interact with symbols and confuse it with influencing reality. Sometimes, someone rare writes a great book that recontextualizes or redefines a symbol, and the herd moves a different way. The other 99.999% of people are just […]
Donald Trump may go down in history as the greatest troll of all time because he baits the Left the way the Left baits the Right. He does things to outrage them, and soon all they can talk about is him, sort of like how the “Christian Nationalist” right is currently obsessed over the Olympics […]
~~~ Dem Rep says ‘antisemitic far left’ is trying to block Kamala Harris from choosing Josh Shapiro as VP Normies remain oblivious to the facts of life. Diversity is doing what it always does, namely create a virtuous victim lower-IQ group and a series of enemies in the higher average IQ camp. Jews are thought […]
Go on a camping trip or a long orienteering hike, sail a boat, climb a mountain, or even just spend a night in the woods. You will be reminded that from weather to creatures, nature wants to kill you. It is also full of hidden pitfalls from delicious toxic mushrooms to quicksand. That is why […]
~~~ We’re in a ‘buffalo’ market, Bank of America says. Here’s what that means for investors Sea change feels like this: the market is discarding speculative and experimental buys in favor of a focus on infrastructure. Similarly our societies have seen the Leftist dream fail, and they want to return to what functions. Conservatives win […]
You encounter them in public. They seem so self-assured, so convinced that they are right. They are pretentious, haughty, arrogant, but they do so indirectly, the “humble brag” type of arrogance where they assert something as right through their good intentions, and dare anyone to challenge them. And yet, what they advocate is… just not […]
~~~ Monday is the hottest day recorded on Earth, beating Sunday’s record, European climate agency says Climate scientists are more grifters looking for government money. What has risen in parallel with the disturbances in weather? Urbanization, globalization, and population. Humanity is digging its own grave through excess humanity, and Leftism seems to exist to rationalize […]
