- Samizdata quote of the day 7th July 2022If police were opening fire on protesters in a European nation, we would have heard about it, right? If there was a mass uprising of working people in a European Union country, taking to the streets in their thousands to cause disruption to roads, airports and parliament itself, it would be getting a lot of […]Perry de Havilland (London)
- Samizdata quote of the day 6th July 2022What is the fundamental difference between church indulgences and emission allowances? Primarily it is that critics of allowances are not burned at the stake. Presumably because it would cause too many emissions. Otherwise, however, it is the same idea. – Luboš ZálomSamizdata Illuminatus (Arkham, Massachusetts)

- Systems indoctrinate, deprecate questioning and doubt, produce reactive citizens, and blame them(An extension of a few points I mentioned in this video concerning education.) So-called educational systems teach young students what to believe, how to behave, and perhaps skills deemed necessary—not to question. (To a considerable degree, teaching what to believe … Continue reading →Wisdomdancer

These metaphors, like others I use in the book, introduce realism concerning the novelty of our personal appearance on preconstructed stages of history and human culture, atop mind … Continue reading →Wisdomdancer

Vengeance welcomes and relishes any opportunities to humiliate or oppress one’s opponents, but shows no foresight of how this creates a precedent—a legal and cultural … Continue reading →Wisdomdancer

- VISITING THE REMAINS OF BENJAMIN DECASSERES IN TUCSON 31st May 2021by John GrauerholzThere are particular geographic locations that, for one inexplicable reason or another, seem peculiarly enchanting. Certain places resonate with certain personalities. There is, somewhere, a precise scenery that speaks to your soul. No matter how many times I visit Arizona, the city of Tucson has always been an endlessly enchanting landscape. Not a […]Mr. Mean-Spirited
- YOUR OWN MEDICAL RECORD WILL BE USED AGAINST YOU 29th April 2021by John Grauerholz Your medical record is something that will always be used against you. Your medical history only exists to record your physical humiliations. A doctor is not there to cure you, but to cause you as much consternation as possible. A physician’s role is not to heal a patient of your ilk, but […]Mr. Mean-Spirited
- THE FUTURE OPPRESSES US 24th March 2021by John Grauerholz It is the future that persecutes us. The communitarians would have us break rocks all day long to bring forth a better world in the decades yet to come. Activists for the long-threatened paradise will not leave us alone – these advance-men will harass and hassle us whenever we attempt to enjoy ourselves […]Mr. Mean-Spirited

- Book Journal – "How to Judge People by What They Look Like" 19th May 2018The title cracks me up.

- Second Foundation 1st July 2022Although there are further sequels, Second Foundation is the last of Asimov’s original Foundation trilogy compiled from earlier stories published in magazines. While I started with a later prequel, I have no immediate plans to proceed to the sequels and will alternate back to non-fiction for the next book, treating this like the last entry […]teageegeepea
- Foundation and Empire 8th June 2022The first Foundation novel was a true anthology, entirely consisting of short stories, only the first of which was newly written for the book rather than previously appearing in a magazine. Foundation and Empire moves away from that in that it’s still multiple stories, all of which appeared in print earlier, but there are just […]teageegeepea
- Foundation 21st May 2022Last month I reviewed Prelude to Foundation, and now I’ve finally gotten to the original. The two books were written many decades apart, but even if I’d started with this book I still wouldn’t be in the order everything was written: the first section (“The Psychohistorians”) was only added in 1951 when the stories from […]teageegeepea

- To Critical Race Theory, or not to Critical Race Theory? 5th July 2021Like the uncollapsed quantum state holding Schrodinger’s cat in a state of simultaneous life and death, whether a school is “teaching critical race theory” or not seems to depend entirely on whether the inquiring person wants them to. Are you anti-CRT? Then, you may rest assured, American schools most certainly aren’t teaching CRT. (If you […]evolutiontheorist

- Review: Lawrence in Arabia 10th June 2021Scott Anderson’s Lawrence in Arabia is, quite obviously, about the famous T. E. Lawrence “of” Arabia. The book ranges significantly wider than Lawrence’s personal account, however, shifting between the perspectives of Ottoman officials, German spies, American spies, Zionist spies, and of course British spies. I read this book concurrently with The Berlin-Baghdad Express, so my […]evolutiontheorist

- Afghanistan cannot fit the mold of white Christian democracy 25th August 2021Afghanistan is not Germany nor Japan. Afghanistan cannot be rebuilt like these nations were rebuilt after world war II, with the Marshall plan. To posit insurmountable cultural, religious ethnic differences is taboo to the point that Trillions (one million million dollars) are spent for impossible fantasies of nation building, to turn Afghans into Americans, Germans, […]Programmer

- “Individualism and Property,” a letter to the Editor of Freedom by Mildred J. Loomis, 1965 30th May 2022Individualism and Property Dear Editors, I welcome the attempt to distinguish between individualist and communist anarchism, but so far the discussions in your paper have been too general. They spend too much time on generalities—on whether an individualist anarchist lacks altruism and whether the communist anarchist needs more self-expression, etc., etc. I’m wondering whether others […]Kevin I.

- “Anarchist Topics”, a letter to the Editors of Freedom from Sidney E. Parker, 1971 27th May 2022Dear Editors, Bill Dwyer gives a substantially correct report of what I recounted of my experiences as a member of a printing union ‘chapel’ (Freedom, 19.12.70). What he deduces from it, however, is wide of the mark. Firstly, I do not maintain that ‘the worker (whoever he is) is fitted only for obedience’. What I […]Kevin I. Slaughter
