People wonder why Science Fiction is dying. It was a wired enterprise to begin with. Using fiction to tell the truth seems self-contradicting. In Dr. Pangloss’ the best of all possible worlds it would be unnecessary. But instead, we live in The Dessert of The Real. Alas Babylon5! Fictional art is used to drive home […]
~~~ Behold the rain which descends from heaven upon our vineyards, and which incorporates itself with the grapes to be changed into wine; a constant proof that God loves us, and loves to see us happy! – Bem Franklin ~~~ African elephants face growing risk of extinction Poaching for ivory and human encroachment receive the […]

We have to be careful in assigning blame because the usual human trick is to find a scapegoat instead of tracing effect to cause and finding out what actually triggered a crisis. For example, capitalism gets blamed for the problems of regulations, unions, taxes, lawsuits, sharehold revolts, and affirmative action. When we analyze conservatives, it […]
For those of us who study what has gone wrong in the West, the question of civilization and The Human Problem — what keeps destroying our best efforts at functional societies — go hand-in-hand. As one of those, you may be familiar with the Our Civilisation site run by Philip Atkinson. Fortunately, he was able […]
For thirty years I have advanced the theory that The Human Problem is solipsism, it manifests in group delusions called Crowdism, and that diversity is our problem not specific races because it forces each group to compete for power lest it remain in subject, conquered status. Currently, we are told that America is experiencing an […]
Among the members of Generation X, it is not nor has never been a controversial statement to say that ninety-five or ninety-nine percent of humanity needs to be eliminated. We just disagree somewhat on which means of selection to use. Unlike previous generations, we came after the time of human waste, when the genetic waste […]
Despite massive media hype over White Supremacy and domestic terrorism, the last two incidents broke the narrative, and together, serve as an illustration showing why this narrative is entirely politically-motivated and has nothing to do with reality. It turns out that the Colorado supermarket shooter was not a white guy: Ahmad Al Aliwi Alissa was […]
There is the sense that strong people are getting tired. Take for example Senator Rob Portman’s intention to retire after only ten years in office: “I don’t think any Senate office has been more successful in getting things done, but honestly, it has gotten harder and harder to break through the partisan gridlock and make […]
“That’s not his name,” spoken softly, divided the hardware store immediately. Janus went back to the storeroom immediately. Marc snickered, and Dalwood Higgins, the proprietor, shot him the usual dirty look. Across the street, construction resumed on what would eventually be a competitor for the centuries-old hardware store, a new chain outlet made possible by […]
~~~ Eco-fascism: Far right co-opting environmentalism to justify anti-immigration views They have noticed that the Right supports localism, Romanticism, rural life, and living in balance with nature. Next they may even notice our admiration for natural order! The Right has always been in favor of these things, but when it went Christian Libertarian in the […]
Coming at a time when people are wondering how the COVID-19 response could be so bungled quited uniformly across Western democracies, CBRN: Surviving Chemical, Biological, Radiological & Nuclear Events by Piero San Giorgio and Cris Millennium acts against ignorance with some solid knowledge of how to protect yourself against these events, even when everyone else […]
Prior to modernity, unemployed people were considered useless. Feudal minor nobles would typically conscript them into levies and send them marching off to some conflict armed with their farm implements. There was no vital security interest necessary for the minor feudal nobles to send these people off. This was a eugenics program; the nobles wanted […]
~~~ Hundreds of new migrants still being expelled to Mexico as Joe Biden keeps one of Donald Trump’s controversial policies Joe Biden reminds me of every union organizer, drug dealer, or confidence scam man. He plays both sides, and to keep in his good graces, you have to keep the checks flowing. Consequently, Biden will […]
Being a realist allows one to see human behavior for what it is, which means generally looking at the self-interest behind all that people do, especially when they claim otherwise through altruistic ideology. When we look at the voters, we see a group of people who are trying to make themselves look good so that […]
When behaving badly, do so in an understated fashion to remain below the radar screen. A simple orange polo shirt in honor of St. Paddy’s Day speaks volumes without yelling or even disturbing the peace. I like to think of it as sartorial passive-aggression. Perhaps I’ll also wear a fleur-de-lys on El Cinco De Mayo. […]
~~~ Sex addiction, not racial hatred, may have driven suspect in Georgia spa shootings The “domestic terrorism” angle recedes as it turns out that this was a sexually-frustrated person of Irish descent, not a White guy on a mission to purge America of Asians. In the meantime, it seems as if anti-Asian violence is the […]
Civilization resembles a snowball in that it picks up behaviors along the way that, unless they cause a lost war or great depression, end up becoming part of the ever-accumulating “new normal.” This condition arises from reward structures and fear of social blame. No one gets in trouble for doing what everyone else is doing; […]
Under the force of nature, humans live from cause-to-effect. They figure out what creates fire and replicate it; they understand how animals hunt, and adopt similar strategies. They live by intellect more than instinct. When a society thrives, it has excess wealth, and this insulates people from nature. They now think in effect-to-effect: how to […]
~~~ Caesar: Who is it in the press that calls on me? I hear a tongue shriller than all the music Cry “Caesar!” Speak, Caesar is turn’d to hear.Soothsayer: Beware the ides of March.Caesar: What man is that?Brutus: A soothsayer bids you beware the ides of March. ~~~ Anal COVID-19 swabs in China — ‘We […]
Slowly it has dawned on the Western world that diversity was a mistake because like many Leftist policies, it is dysfunctional, and erodes whatever shared standards of behavior existed in a society while creating ethnic conflict. As other research has pointed out repeatedly and firmly, diversity removes “social trust” or a sense of a bond […]
If you want to make it to the big, plush corner office, then you kiss the right butts and do what you are told. That includes the big corner office on Pennsylvania Avenue. Joe Biden won’t be composing any new Special Theories of Relativity, but he knows how to brown nose a boss. If Big […]
~~~ The Boomer Baffle Battle Book The Boomers replaced culture with politics, creating an environment of both Libertarian radical individualism and a Communist system of entitlements, supported by an addiction to the power necessary to create that Leftist Utopia through globalist market control. I say that, instead, WW2 propaganda awakened the sleeping 14A and made […]

No matter what type of energy source a joule of heat on Earth is derived from, it all originated from one source: the Sun. If our sun took a caesura from sending as much energy towards Earth, it would lead to significant consequences. In anticipation of these events, professional investors would make significant changes to […]
