The transformation of the medieval world into the modern world came about with the idea that man could and should transform his lot in life. The liberal individualism of the Enlightenment however was soon countered by reactionary movements, feudal and socio-feudal, seeking to put the genie of individual autonomy back in the box through collectivist movements. Among the most prominent of these was what would eventually be called socialism. While early socialist movements had been a radical Christian heresy emphasizing communal living, these experiments invariably failed on a local level leaving behind a trail of wrecked lives. 19th century radical theorists began laying out plans for the communal transformations of entire societies. Fourier’s socialist ‘Phalanxes’ which would influence everything from Soviet communal farms to hippie communes in the U.S,. were feudal mass communities with no private property and everyone assigned a role in life under the rule of a centralized ‘omniarch’.

Ahead of Election Day, women wearing red Handmaid’s Tale costumes, rainbow scarves, and toting warning signs about their private parts rallied in D.C. for Kamala and abortion. The crowd was so small that the media hardly bothered reporting on the rallies. The Women’s March had come a long way since it claimed to have brought out millions to protest Trump in 2017. And the long way it had come was mostly down. In an early preview of the antisemitism controversies in today’s leftist movements, the March fell apart when its leaders were revealed to be bigots who hated Jews and supported the Nation of Islam But with Trump back, the Women’s March is back too. And the pre-election rallies are supposed to usher in much bigger post-election and post-inauguration rallies using the “power of diverse women” as part of “a women-led movement” to beat men and take back power for women. There’s one problem with the Women’s March: its chief of staff is a man. Aquib Shaheed Yacoob, the chief of staff of

California is where freedom goes to die. Its annual legislative orgies consist of politicians stealing billions of dollars for special interests and finding exotic new things to ban. In 2024, California Democrats finally banned plastic bags to ensure that anyone who isn’t shopping with a car or with a bag can’t buy more than a handful of items in a supermarket. They also made national news for trying to set the Constitution on fire by banning memes. And just for the hell of it, they also banned octopus farming. Octopus farming was banned on the theory that the undersea creatures, unlike California voters, are “highly intelligent” and have “long-term memory.” Also unlike California Democrats, octopi have “a high level of problem-solving ability” which means you couldn’t go wrong with replacing Gov. Gavin Newsom with an octopus. Unlike Gov. Newsom, octopi are also “known for their ability to learn, use tools, and exhibit behaviors that suggest a level of consciousness.” So Dems are bann

After the majority of Americans voted for the economy over abortion, furious feminists have announced that they will no longer date, marry or have children. Call it slow motion misery and mass suicide. In the past, Americans protested by refusing to pay taxes, now leftists are protesting by refusing to have children because of their frustrated eagerness to kill those same children in the womb. What began as a last minute election gimmick by the Kamala campaign, which decided that its best strategy for winning the election was dividing us by sex, is now poisoning our culture, and further ruining relationships between men and women. And the media is spreading the poison. CBS News, NBC News and the Washington Post are only a few of the many mainstream media outlets that have taken it on themselves to promote South Korea’s 4B movement to Americans with its ‘four bis’ or ‘four nos’ calling for no dating, no sex, no marriage and no childbirth. Rather than report critically on a movement that

Trump won the largest Jewish county in the country, the only entirely Jewish town and village, and some of the densest, fastest growing and most Jewish neighborhoods in America. Borough Park, Brooklyn is the densest Jewish neighborhood in the country. Its two square miles contain nearly 100,000 Jewish people in 23,000 households. 83% are married and only 2% are divorced. 96% are members of synagogues. This was where large crowds protested pandemic lockdowns, tearing down playground fences and burning masks. Trump won over 90% of the vote in most Borough Park districts. On 14th Avenue and Rabbi Weissmandl Way, Trump won 96% of the vote in one very Jewish district. In Chicago’s West Rogers Park, a Muslim terrorist shot a Jewish man who was walking to the synagogue on the Sabbath, and then did battle with police while shouting, “Allahu Akbar”. Trump won the more Orthodox areas of West Rogers Park, which Chicago Magazine described as, “a world of synagogues, kosher bakeries, and Hebrew boo

The media spent months pre-hyping Taylor Swift’s endorsement of Kamala Harris. In its aftermath, stories claimed that the lip-synching sensation’s Instagram post drove half a million fans to not only buy overpriced merchandise, but to register to vote in the 2024 election. The Kamala campaign embraced ‘Brat’ branding based on an album from a British half-Muslim pop star few Americans ever heard of. It brought out Beyonce to campaign (crucially not to sing) for Kamala who had tried to model her fanbase, the KHive, on Beyonce’s rabid Beyhive fans. Kamala brought Oprah and Lady Gaga to Philly and Katy Perry to Pittsburgh. Julia Roberts cut an ad telling women to hide their votes from their husbands. In Michigan, white wife-killing enthusiast rapper Eminem headlined a Kamala rally while Obama rapped the opening of his ‘Lose Yourself’ (unintentionally revealing that he’s just as authentically black as Eminem.) Bruce Springsteen shuffled out to perform at an Obama event for Kamala in Philly.

It is no coincidence that both of the Democratic Party’s ‘black’ presidential nominees were not black Americans, but the children of radical third world students who appropriated the rhetoric of the civil rights movement to get ahead, without having any actual history or part in it. Obama and Kamala are not the legacy of the slave trade, much as they have exploited that history, but the third world immigrants and students ushered in by the JFK administration . Barack Obama Sr., Shyamala Gopalan and Donald Harris all arrived in America as foreign students within a few years of each other. They were part of a flood of foreign students brought to America by Cold War legislation meant to educate foreign elites in the United States. Instead of ‘Americanizing’ the third world, Obama, Gopalan, Harris and thousands of others like them helped radicalize and ‘third worldize’ America. Many of the foreign students, like Kamala’s parents, never had any real intention of going home. Some stayed to

On August 8, Bernadette Spofforth, a 55-year-old British Twitter user, was dragged out of her home, arrested and held for 36 hours for posting that the murderer of 3 girls in Southport was a Muslim terrorist. The charge she was held under was “posting inaccurate information”. Bernadette was one of thousands of people arrested in a massive crackdown by the Starmer government aimed at suppressing political dissent over its open borders migrant policies. After Axel Rudakubana, a Muslim terrorist, entered a children’s Taylor Swift dance workshop and stabbed 11 little girls, killing 3 of them, British authorities declared an emergency. The emergency was not the latest act of horrifying Muslim terrorism targeting local children. It was that some of its citizens had noticed the latest Muslim terror attack and were outraged. These included the the Dublin stabbing of children outside a Catholic school by Riad Bouchaker, an Algerian Muslim or the Manchester Arena bombing at an Arianna Grande con

“Is America ready for that? Are they ready for a woman of color to be President of the United States?” Kamala Harris asked a month before dropping out of the 2020 primaries. Five years later the consensus is not that Kamala wasn’t ready, but America still wasn’t. “Kamala Harris didn’t lose, America did. As a nation, we collectively failed her,” John Pavlovitz, a liberal Christian blogger, damned. “This election was not an indictment of Kamala Harris. It was an indictment of America,” Cosmo columnist Jill Filipovic argued. Americans had the opportunity to elect Kamala. And we had failed to live up to her. “By every measure, she has demonstrated that she’s ready,” Michelle Obama had warned at a Kamala election rally.. “The real question is, as a country, are we ready for this moment?” We were not ready. “There is racial bias in this country, and there is sexism in this country,” Obama adviser David Axelrod told CNN to explain Kamala’s defeat. The racism and sexism in America was so bad t

This wasn’t an election. It was a revolution. It’s midnight in America. The day before million of Americans got up and stood in front of the great iron wheel that had been grinding them down. They stood there even though the media told them it was useless. They took their stand even while all the chattering classes laughed and taunted them. They were fathers who couldn’t feed their families anymore. They were mothers who couldn’t afford health care. They were workers whose jobs had been sold off to foreign countries. They were sons who didn’t see a future for themselves. They were daughters afraid of being murdered by the “unaccompanied minors” flooding into their towns. They took a deep breath and they stood. They held up their hands and the great iron wheel stopped. The Great Blue Wall crumbled. The states fell one by one right down to Pennsylvania.  The working class that had been overlooked and trampled on for so long got to its feet. It rose up against its oppressors and the rest

Win or lose, fans of the Philly Eagles go out into the street and smash things. Whoever wins on Election Day, leftists will smash things. The election only determines whether they smash up the country from the inside or the outside. Forget all the theory and all the empty policy promises. It’s not about equity, democracy, free college, funding terrorists, defunding the police, breaking the glass ceiling, or any of the other suits the naked emperors and empresses wear. When the champagne corks and pills have been popped, the desire underneath is to destroy it all. Mediocre elites created leftism by sublimating their narcissistic drive to destroy everything superior to them into the revolutionary politics of a purported underclass. But the elites are the oppressed underclass they’ve been waiting for. They fight for their own right to seize power. And they don’t stop fighting once they get it. Stop by a leftist rally and you’ll rarely find anyone who ever worked for a living or intends to
