Back in the 1860s, America fought a civil war over states rights. While the touchstone issue for the North was slavery, for the South it was tariffs and other laws favoring the northeastern factories that mostly employed Irish people. Naturally Abraham Lincoln, a student of the modern State in the European sense, found it easy […]
Up through the 1990s, America was mostly ruled by its founding group, ethnic Western Europeans a.k.a. White Anglo-Saxon Protestants, a way of saying people from the West side of the Hajnal Line who are essentially unbroken Cro-Magnid in descent. As the hippies of the 1960s took control, the WASPs were deposed by a group of […]
Egalitarian societies, by the nature of needing to deplete the strong in order to shore up the weak, find themselves obsessed with victimhood. When the goal of society is to make the weak equal, only being weak guarantees that one is safe from attack and entitled to free things. This means that guilt controls these […]
Has it struck anyone who without a center and any grounding civilization has become? We expect somewhat of a directionless aspect to Late Stage Democracy, when the last man comes out and demands nothing more than equal bougie comfort, but now we are seeing the effects of loss of culture and with it, anchoring. Politics […]
Geoffrey Moore wrote a book named Crossing the Chasm in 1991 which made him an example of American civilizational success because he was able to synthesize history into a model predicting the future. Because his clients were successful, the deduction can be made that his model is therefore successful and could quite readily be applied […]
When we were young, growing up in Texas, we all celebrated Juneteenth. The reason was that no one really liked slavery and the thought of buying people in a foreign homeland, bringing them here, and then keeping them in servitude. At the same time, driving by the Black, Amerind, Hispanic, Asian, or Russian parts of […]
What we might realize, looking over history, is that almost all of it involves social posturing and jockeying for importance between individuals, and almost none of this considers anything larger than the individual and his quest for advancement. Only aristocrats did otherwise by thinking of eternity, but that betrayed them once things started going badly, […]
For a brief recap: equality comes to us from individualism, or the idea by individuals that no social rules should hold them back, barring a few commonsense big no-nos like murder, violent theft, assault, and rape. They want the benefits of civilization without the accountability or need to maintain it. This lets them use society […]
My own life is intuitively spent not on a conquest of the New World or new worlds but on the search for reality. Despite schools now preparing young children for a Martian world while normalizing the presence of un-identified flying objects, future reality might turn out to be completely different. Western Education has unilaterally decided […]
~~~ Most people are feeling pretty bad about the future now. It looks like war will start in Ukraine or Taiwan, mainly because instead of taking a conservative hardline before the war begins, the Bidens of the world wait for the war to kick off and then send weapons. The world economy, depending on who […]
Another brutal high colonic of realism for you: By now, however, the palace’s name had become synonymous with the mystery and despair of what it had become — the Lefortovo pretrial and investigation prison. Lefortovo and its blood-soaked history had long since tempered the Russian soul. It is not known precisely how many of the […]
In the Anglo-Saxon culture that ruled America before diversity took over, “clever” was not a nice word. It meant someone smart enough to manipulate machines, economics, and people, but not shrewd enough to see how consequences in reality are the only way to win in the long term. Clever people burn down things around them […]
The crises of the past couple years — COVID-19, Ukraine, Great Depression II, stolen election 2020, Taiwan, Jan 6, BLM riots — reflect a situation typical of Late Stage Democracy. Early societies focus on objectives. When they achieve those, they bloat, and start focusing on “managing” themselves rather than rising to meet some goal. Consequently, […]
Some eternal truths reflect the nature not just of humans but of intelligence. Too much of it might be paralytic, or at least need a few centuries of caring before it could wrap its large matrix calculating mind around basic survival, and too little of it produces American television. We like to call this human […]
The British Empire’s success (and by implication all current European Monarchs) is characterized by rentier or rent-seeking behavior: Rent seeking (or rent-seeking) is an economic concept that occurs when an entity seeks to gain added wealth without any reciprocal contribution of productivity. Typically, it revolves around government-funded social services and social service programs. In our […]
When societies turn toward individualism, they have already lost agreement on a goal and now become focused on risks to what they already have. As a result, the focus turns toward managing other people in order to avoid bad behavior. Eventually this becomes self-interested behavior because the society has moved from realism toward rationalism. It […]
For those who like their history raw and wriggling: Starting in April 1991, three FBI agents posed as members of an invented racist militia group called the Veterans Aryan Movement. According to their cover story, VAM members robbed armored cars, using the proceeds to buy weapons and support racist extremism. The lead agent was a […]
For some time, many of us have felt frustration with the Right because of its tendency to — like the rest of humanity, telling us the origin here lies in the human scientific animal, and not the Right — find symbols and scapegoats for complex processes. We as individuals treat the world as an individual […]
Wind farms use the rare earth material neodymium. The harvesting, processing and disposal of this rare earth material damages the environment in the same way that industrialization, overpopulation, and dysgenics. Writers about ecocide tend to explain that modern civilization cannot be sustained because refined materials must be used to produce common goods, and with the […]
Debate continues over whether history repeats or simply plays out new versions of the same patterns, but these things mean basically the same thing: humans, when confronted with similar situations, make a number of known types of decisions, and those have somewhat predictable results. Details vary between situations but not so much that the basic […]
It is a pity that, for most young students, the experience of being introduced to literature as a teenager is marred by a feeling of otherness. This is especially true when we are introduced to classics, and even those of us who see the symbolic beauty in them, perceive them as grandiloquent and distant. And […]
When Donald Trump won the election some Hollywood producer created a Trump Tribe Portrait depicting the Trump tribe as a cult. I firmly believe that Trump as its leader will use this cult to his advantage in order to reshape what remains of the Republican Party as we know it, by forming a transatlantic alliance […]
As democracy fails worldwide, people in diverse nations search frantically for some actual truths about how things are going. Each attempts to look at the situation in order to glean important bits connecting to some truth affecting future actions. This is not to say that everyone has a personal truth which is universally true, far […]
While the World Economic Forum advances the Fourth Industrial Revolution by advertising Chinese 5G masts and city-wide broadband to educate the poor, politicians contemplate using holograms instead of body doubles to keep tension going between characters and readers. One example is from the Joe Biden team asking how big the hologram should be: Big Biden would […]
~~~ Leftists are freaking out because they know that for the largest part of the last three decades they have controlled the West, and now all of their plans are failing. The film 2000 Mules has convinced many through visual imagery that election theft was indeed likely in 2020, even if we also suspect it […]
