A persistent argument, often termed the gateway hypothesis, suggests that certain public figures act as entry points for individuals to engage with heterodox ideas. This perspective proposes that figures like Candace Owens, the Tate brothers, and Myron Gaines attract general audiences to unconventional thought, eventually leading them toward more substantial dissident ideologies.

One of the most important aspects of modern American politics is the desire among a faction of conservatives to ally with African-Americans. This has motivated decades worth of terrible decisions. This includes Turning Point USA’s decision to promote Candace Owens, Donald Trump’s “Platinum Plan,” and repetitive attempts to rewrite history. (more…)

Part 1 is available here and Part 2 here.
To demonstrate the flawed reasoning behind the conspiracist worldview, I’m going to compare two very similar conspiracy theories. The first is one which I believe has a substantial amount of evidence suggesting it is true and the second is one which I consider baseless. I will use the framework which I’ve outlined here to illustrate why I believe one of these theories is likely true and the other is almost certainly false. (more…)

Now that I’ve explained why conspiracism is not an accurate way to understand various processes and agendas playing out in the world today, I’m not going to explain the logical errors with the conspiracist mindset in a general sense. Again, I don’t deny that conspiracies among powerful individuals exist and occur regularly. The issue is with making conspiracy foundational to one’s interpretation of the world and the belief that world events have been preplanned and are being orchestrated by a grand conspiracy. (more…)

Candace Owens
Make Him a Sandwich
Platform Press, 2025I am aware that not many readers of this platform are fans of Candace Owens for various reasons, and so I am not going to discuss Candace Owens. I’m sure that will happen in the comments section without my help.
Recently, Owens published a book called Make Him a Sandwich—Why Real Women Don’t Need Fake Feminism. Well, feminism is not “fake” at all, so that part of the title doesn’t really make sense, but as Owens will go on to explain, much of the motivation of feminists, as well as their arguments, are very much fake.

I listened to the main speeches from Turning Point USA’s AmericaFest 2025 so you don’t have to.
They illustrated several points. First, that a clash between conservatives and nationalists over Trump’s legacy was always inevitable. (more…)

I wanted to believe it so badly. But the story was too delicious, too outrageous to be true. We are talking about the recent conspiracy theory according to which Brigitte Macron, the wife of Emmanuel Macron, is in fact a man. (more…)

What would become known as the Alt Right began to crystalize by the mid-2010s. The Alt Right introduced a style of White Nationalism that was so radically different than what came before that it was necessary to invent some terms to differentiate the two. Pre-Alt Right White Nationalism came to be referred to as White Nationalism 1.0 (WN 1.0). This encompassed groups such as the Klan, skinheads, the militia movement, and the efforts of individuals such as George Lincoln Rockwell, David Duke, William Pierce, and Tom Metzger. (more…)

Greg Johnson floated the idea of my writing an essay on Candace Owens being the Non-White Ally of 2023. I said no, because I think she is a snake. Has Candace Owens been saying good things lately? Has she been dabbling in Jewish-question territory, helping to bring some of our basic talking points to the mainstream and shifting the Overton window? I don’t deny that she has. (more…)

There are people in the world who are said to have “fuck you money.” That’s when you have so much money and such financial security that you can go around being a complete bastard to everyone and say “fuck you” to whomever you please with little or no adverse consequences to one’s self.
Elon Musk has more than “fuck you money.” He has “name the Jew money.” Kanye West thought he had “name the Jew money,” but actually did not. Elon Musk really does. (more…)
