As I am a critic of the reigning universalist egalitarian liberal consensus, I will attempt to answer the question as to whether or not America’s Thermidorian Reaction, if successful, would be a good thing or not. Before I do that, I need to make it clear that this hasn’t happened yet, and it still remains to be seen if this move by Trump’s Thermidorians will be successful or not. (more…)

When I was a child in the early 2000s, my elementary school would do a food drive each year, usually around the holiday season. Students in our class would bring non-perishable food items to school and place them in a large cardboard box in our classroom. After a couple of weeks, the item our school had received from students would be donated to a local food bank, a charitable organization which offers free food to those in need. (more…)

The term “NAXALT” is short for “Not all [members of group X] are like that.” It’s a frequent rebuttal to discussions of group behavior.

It really hurts to be white these days.
I can’t talk about that, of course. And if I have to, like when some pushy reporter sticks a microphone in my face or something, then yes, I will talk about it. But I will say the exact opposite of the truth. (more…)

I recently watched an interesting debate centered on the Jewish Question between Mark Collett of Patriotic Alternative and Jason Köhne of No White Guilt. If you’ve been around this scene for a while, the debate wasn’t earthshattering. Lines have been drawn. Sides chosen. Listeners knew the arguments that both sides were going to make before they made them. And yet, what was truly great about the debate was that both sides made them, clearly and succinctly. (more…)
