The Populist Moment, Chapter 11, Part 3
“Multitudes” Against the People
On the Theses of Michael Hardt & Antonio NegriIntroduction here, Chapter 11 Part 2 here, Chapter 11 Part 4 here
Translated by F. Roger Devlin
Intellectual labor, say Hardt and Negri, is intrinsically associated with sharing and common production. This “common,” consisting in information, knowledge, and emotional and affective relations is both the condition and the result of today’s predominant form of labor — but of course it has nothing to do with what is generally understood under this term. It does not found a community, for it has neither unity nor identity. (more…)

Translated by F. Roger Devlin
“The Empire is constructing a biopolitical order because production has become biopolitical,” states Antonion Negri.[i] That means that the emergence of the Empire as a paradigm of biopower is indissociable from the appearance of a new form of production, viz. “immaterial” labor, which is defined by Hardt and Negri as “labor which produces a non-material good such as a service, a cultural product, knowledge, or communication” (more…)

Translated by F. Roger Devlin
In September 2016, a poll revealed that for 85% of Frenchmen the presidential election of May 2017 would be “disappointing” no matter what the result. That figure says it all. The extraordinary distrust of ever larger layers of the population toward the “government parties” and the political class in general, to the benefit of movements of a new type called “populist,” is undoubtedly the most striking fact about the changing political landscape of at least the past two decades.

What are the political dimensions of globalism?
There are various possible implementations of globalism. A Rightist version would be straight up imperialism, but on a worldwide scale. Military conquest of the entire planet hasn’t been attempted, despite what you might’ve heard from certain feverish wartime propaganda that still keeps getting dredged up after eight decades.
From the far Left, Communism has some rather obvious globalist dimensions. (more…)

Le Manifeste des Blancs arrogants

English original: Part 1, Part 2, Part 3
Les Blancs sont prêts pour la politique identitaire blanche. Cela est clair d’après la montée des politiciens et des partis populistes et nationalistes dans le monde blanc, ainsi que par les recherches de la politologue Ashley Jardina, qui montre qu’un nombre important d’Américains blancs a des identités raciales positives, pense que le système actuel est anti-Blancs, rejette la culpabilité blanche, et pense qu’il est approprié pour les Blancs de s’organiser politiquement pour protéger leurs intérêts collectifs [1].

Critique of capitalism has a long history. Broadly beginning with Marx and Engels, capitalism’s critics have morphed over time as capital itself continues to evolve. However, regardless of the source of discontent — ranging from nineteenth-century Communists, to twentieth-century socialists, to twenty-first century black-pilled intellectuals — certain themes pervade; (more…)

If the architects of globalization succeed in establishing the New World Order, they will have obtained a magnitude of concentrated power unprecedented in history. The globalists’ steady accumulation of economic, bureaucratic, political, cultural, and many other forms of power has received determined support from the Western democracies. (more…)

By the time I heard about the cancelation of the BreadTuber known as Socialism Done Left, the controversy was already a few days old. I had never heard of the guy, but when I stumbled upon the Vice article “Leaked Racist Messages Shows “Leftist” Youtuber Isn’t” written by affirmative action hire Gita Jackson, I initially wanted to defend him.
