The American left (Democrats and the soft-shelled Republicans) has taken some very dangerous positions. You might respond with, “Yeah, and the sun rises in the east and sets in the west. So, what else is new?” It seems different this time. What makes it different (in my opinion) is that there is no “climb down”…

Just when you did not think things could get any weirder, they always seem to do so. The well of absurdity is apparently bottomless. Suddenly, Dr. Seuss and Mr. Potato Head are America’s greatest threats. Islamofascist terrorism and China’s growing global influence are in the rearview mirror. Locking down entire states and forcing people to…

Democrats and progressives have about the same track record on potentially existential issues as Saint Anthony of Fauci has on anything related to Covid-19. But that’s how it is when your goal is to be seen as being correct about an issue but you don’t really care about the facts. The Democrats, progressives and Saint…

“Then the ape grew very depressed, Went through Transactional Analysis, He plays racquetball and runs in the rain, Still, he’s shackled to a platinum chain…” ~ Warren Zevon, “Gorilla, You’re a Desperado” It seems that, in a search for their place and role in the world, the progressive left seems to be stuck in the…

An interesting aspect of the widespread closures of businesses, colleges and universities, government offices and the restrictions on travel and certain public behaviors is that we are learning that a large portion of what we considered basic and necessary in January of 2020 has been revealed as useless and unnecessary by January of 2021. And…

People scoff when indoctrination and reeducation camps are mentioned. “Never happen here,” they say (or think). But the fact is, they already exist – they exist in things like the mandatory “anti-racism”/Critical Race Theory programs that are being implemented in businesses, schools, and government agencies, most as a condition of employment. They exist in media…

Given what we know, not based on theory, prediction, or opinion, but what has been openly expressed and demonstrated as to what sort of world progressives wish to create/are creating, what does that Brave New World look like? Let us list a few aspects that seem self-evident to anyone paying attention: Chaos: the constantly changing…

Something significant is getting left out in the “whodunit” debate of the Texas energy debacle that goes beyond the discussions of frozen windmills, snow covered solar panels, frozen pipes, and battery technology, and it is important for the future of certain forms of alternative energy. The pro-fossil fuels crowd says the Green New Deal approach…

To hear the media tell it, the American right is nothing but a bunch of conspiracy mongering wingnuts. Perhaps one of the most assumed conspiracy theories is the Illuminati/Bilderberger/Trilateral Commission conspiracy, centering on a cabal of international bankers, intellectuals, and wealthy elites – mostly whites of European descent, many Jewish, some Nazi, almost exclusively male,…

Wouldn’t it be the pinnacle of irony of I got cancelled for exposing cancel culture? Read on and you will see why I might. As long as cancelling people for their beliefs remains a thing, can we get the Cancelistas to cancel Karl Marx, a grisly, old, European white dude, who was an anti-Semitic, bigoted,…

Democrats just attempted to impeach a former president for incitement of an insurrection. One wonders if this was less about Trump (they did not have a case, evidentiary or constitutionally, but they mailed it in anyway), and more about establishing a low-bar political definition for “insurrection” and a precedent for a response to it. One…

There are two extremely dangerous psychological conditions at play in Washington these days – truth be told they are always at play in DC – but most of the time they are generally kept in check, prevented from intersecting in dangerous quantities by common sense and an awareness of fallibility in enough people to mitigate…

All: fair warning, this is one of those long posts (some will say “What else is new?”), but it might be worth reading. A week or so ago, I posted that the terms Republican and Democrat, as a proper definition of identity for the parties was no longer meaningful, therefore no longer operative. I proposed…

I have written a lot of words about our state of affairs, but one question keeps coming up, the hardest one to answer – what do we do? I am certainly no authority in such matters, and everyone’s situations are different, but I do think there are some basic things that can be done, things…

We need a version of instant replay for politics, just like is used in college football and the NFL. Any fan of these sports can recall situations when a player gets penalized for an altercation and during the replay, it is revealed that the other party, the one who didn’t draw a penalty, had been…

The metastatic cancer of “cancel culture” that has taken root in the American sociopolitical environment has come to feature a couple of mechanisms all too common in communist regimes – purges and struggle sessions.In the former Soviet Union, it was Stalin’s practice to purge anyone he saw as a threat to his position. It didn’t…

If one listens intently and thinks critically, one concludes the shrieks of “insurrection” from the Democrats are little more than a distraction for the insurrection they are carrying out under the supportive eye of the media. A Soviet style diktat/shunning/silencing/purge is ongoing. It even comes complete with calls for crackdowns on half of the population…

“There is no “black mind” or “white mind”, no “white male of knowing”, there is only one truth, and we find it through the scientific method.” ~ Gad Saad, “The Parasitic Mind: How Infectious Ideas Are Killing Common Sense” Each side of the political divide accuses the other of living in a world of mass…

Based on the election results from 2016 and 2020, it seems clear the GOP has become the party of the working class. Even though he “lost” in 2020, President Trump continued the strong trend of garnering the working-class vote, while the Democrats captured the upper class and the Wall Street wealthy. That shift has more…

Americans can sense the irrationality of the current gestalt. The first step in recovering the sanity of our nation is to stop accepting the irrationality. Rational people must learn to recognize how certain factions of our society are continually venue shopping for minds that will accept their irrationality. The issue is that those behind such…
