Few would dispute that Joe Biden is exceptional at being senile. His greatest legacy will consist of being remembered as the most senile president ever.
While enjoying a leisurely morning bicycle ride Saturday morning in the stunningly unimpressive State of Delaware, President Joseph Robinette Biden, Jr. abruptly took a spill. (more…)

It is a political axiom in contemporary Britain that there is no problem that Boris Johnson’s government can’t make worse. The supplementary lemma is: How much of it is intentional? Last week’s farcical events involving supposed flights of illegal immigrants from Britain to Rwanda for asylum application processing look at first glance like government idiocy. I suspect not.

The following, which was originally published at Counter-Currents in 2019, is being reprinted now as it continues to be relevant. Interested readers should also see “Bitcoin Basics.”
I should preface this by saying I’m not a licensed investment advisor. Only risk what you are willing to lose. That goes for any investment, whether it’s government bonds or expired yogurt. Bitcoin is one subject that causes a lot of disagreement. (more…)

Beau Albrecht is one of Counter-Currents’ funniest authors. I personally enjoy reading his articles on topics such as music, bizarre books, humor, and current events. I haven’t seen any interviews with Beau, so I decided to do one. Maybe you’ll read something unexpected. (more…)

One question I ask myself when considering whether a conspiracy theory is true is how many coincidences the supposed conspiracy eliminates. The more coincidences, the more believable the theory. On the day after the 2020 Presidential Election, even without looking at any evidence, I already understood that an extensive fraud operation (i.e., a conspiracy) had taken place, one that was attempting to shift the tallies in favor of Joe Biden. Why? Too many unlikely coincidences. Count ‘em: (more…)

In his Counter Currents article from May 20, 2022, “What Christian Nationalism Looks Like in Current-Year America,” Robert Hampton casts a critical eye on Christian nationalism. His thesis:
[Identitarians] think [Christian nationalism is] an ideology that can easily be racialized and used to defend white people . . .
In reality, Christian nationalism is an evangelical, multiracial, philo-Semitic circus that repulses young middle-class people. (more…)

Thanks to Dinesh D’Souza, I now know that there are fat people in India.
When I was a child, India symbolized poverty and malnutrition. At the dinner table, when I didn’t finish my mother’s mashed potatoes, she’d scold me and say that there are starving children in India who’d love to eat her mashed potatoes.
So when D’Souza tweeted on Monday that fat kids used to laugh at him when he was a child in India, I scoffed at the very idea that there are or were any fat kids in India. (more…)

Christopher Pankhurst
Numinous Machines
San Francisco, Calif.: Counter-Currents Publishing, 2017
Whenever I read a book with the intention of writing a review, I like to underline certain passages as well as jot notes in the margins. This quickly became an untenable approach for Christopher Pankhurst’s Numinous Machines, as there was simply too much to pull from the text. The book is a collection of essays that seeks out the numinous spirit in arts and culture in an era that is devoid of almost anything vital whatsoever. (more…)

In 1517, a German monk named Martin Luther wrote a set of theses condemning corrupt financial practices within the Roman Catholic Church. Before that time, Luther’s theses would have wound up in a file in the Vatican and ignored, but thanks to the printing press, his ideas spread across Europe. In the 1520s, his ideas won many French converts. (more…)

First, a word on words. (No, not what you are thinking.) How can you take the following sentence seriously: “Captain Allistoun could be seen on the poop, watching the sky . . .”? (p. 233)[1] If you are familiar with archaic nautical terminology, you know that the term “poop” means the section of elevated deck at the stern of a sailing ship where the compass and the wheel are located. Nowadays, of course, it means “shit,” but even worse, it’s got an annoying baby-talk quality about it. And of course it comes up over and over again, destroying the mood of every sentence it appears in. If I were going to bowdlerize this book, “poop” is the word I would change. (more…)

In my last article, I wrote on the question of whether politics should be abandoned or not. My conclusion was that no, it should not be. However, those who wish to improve themselves and those in their immediate vicinity should also be heeded lest we go down the all-too-common, unproductive path of browsing Telegram and Discord all day and foolishly calling it “political activism,” as so many keyboard warriors do today.

When an interracial murder occurs, why do so many people assume that race was a motivating factor? Isn’t it possible that race was simply incidental to the murder? After all, when someone from Kansas shoots and kills someone from Missouri, we don’t leap to the conclusion that it was because the victim was from Missouri. (more…)
