Attack the System- More Americans now see their government as illegitimate. Why? 27th November 2020Joseph Cotto and I discuss the fragmentation of the United States. Increasingly, the USA is going to be fragmented into an ever-growing number of neo-tribes that lack a common cultural framework with many of these regarding many of the others as inherently illegitimate. An electoral win by “the other side” will likewise be considered illegitimate […]Keith Preston
- Why California Rejected Racial Preferences, Again 27th November 2020California is a deep blue state, which is under the de facto one-party rule of the Democrats. It is a majority-minority state and one of the most culturally liberal states in the US. And yet Proposition 16 was defeated in the year of “Black Lives Matter” becoming an ascendent movement and Fascist Orange Man being […]Keith Preston
- Against Lockdown – The Libertarian Case 27th November 2020By Duncan Whitemore, Mises UK Although I have written on the topic of how libertarian property rights can be applied to the situation of viruses in two, previous essays, it is useful to summarise this again for a clearer picture. Such an endeavor seems necessary now more than ever, for, in spite of increased opposition […]Keith Preston

- Screaming at the sky versus sitting by the sickbed 25th November 2020Four years ago, rage at the election of Trump expressed itself in a lot of what looked like performance art: screaming at the sky, ‘the literal shakening’ and so on. The usual celebrities as usual did not keep their promises to leave the USA if it happened – but I know from personal contacts that […]Niall Kilmartin (Stirling)
- Samizdata quote of the day 25th November 2020Of course, we may say that it’s ok because the Green Party hasn’t a hope in hell of being elected anywhere – but that’s where you’d be wrong. As Peter Lloyd pointed out recently on TCW, it’s the minorities who rule the roost. Their green agenda is firmly in the hands of a government who […]Samizdata Illuminatus (Arkham, Massachusetts)

- RAW LAND 11th November 2019by John GrauerholzI love the lonely landscapes, the empty places, the solitary spaces. I am beguiled by the barren scenery that is not quite desert, yet a geography that is still too unforgiving to be farmland. A soil that is not devoid of vegetation, but an earth where all the plants have already turned brown. […]Mr. Mean-Spirited

It is important that your weapon and […]Unknown
- Death Wish's Yankee Homo Critics Can Go Fuck Themselves with a Knife 8th March 2018Death Wish was generally panned by film critics - who are almost all a bunch of weak faggots that are scared of guns.

- Conspiracy Theory Theory 7th September 2020Our ancestors–probably long before they were even human–had to differentiate between living and non-living things.

- #Biblical: Is it a sin of omission to cover up instances of Black crime, to hide its pervasiveness? 11th September 2020Does the Bible allow to misinform the population in order to avoid “prejudice”?
