As mentioned here several times, the founding illusion of modernity occurred in 1789 when people decided that they could do without specialized leaders. Instead, it was declared that we are all equal. This means that we pick leaders from among us by voting. 222 years on, it seems this has not worked out so well. [...]

Ecocide
The right has withdrawn from climate issues for the most part because the left took them over. The left then used the environment as a justification for the usual leftist agenda, which is suppressing the strong in the name of equality. If you read this blog at all frequently, you know what we hold leftism [...]
Underdog
Our society will always be divided into two groups: those who are dissatisfied, and everyone else. Among the dissatisfied, a small minority — like one in ten thousand — will be ideologues working to fix a problem that no one else understands. Your classic mad scientist, convinced that Godzilla will attack and so laboring late [...]
Equality kills hope
The past 70 years of history in the West have consisted of us re-living WWII propaganda. It’s the freedom fighters versus the bad guys, and wherever we go we bring equality and democracy, and thus everything is going to be OK. We partner that with a Rosie the Riveter style attitude that we’re going to [...]
Occupy Main Street
It has become trendy to say that the right wing and left wing are two faces of the same party of elites. This is a convenient statement if you want the status quo to continue, because it makes people shrug and rage against the machine, but ultimately they do so knowing they cannot change it. [...]
Return to beauty
Our society has focused on utilitarian aspects for too long: what the average person wants, how to compromise and get along, what will not offend anyone, what one size might fit all, and what sort of standard allows the average person to succeed. The result is that we have forgotten beauty. Unlike function, beauty does [...]
Prole-Run America (PRA)
When we go looking for solutions, we must sure we have correctly identified the cause of the problem we want to fix. Although that sounds obvious, most people confuse a problem for its cause. Every problem that appears such that we recognize it has a cause and until we find that cause, we are treating [...]
Proles versus Elites: a review of the protests, part I
For some time on this website there has been a raging debate about the banking system, the protests, occupy movements, and who’s to blame for it all. In the discussion there’s basically two sides. Side one points out that the captains of industry got where they are by hard labour and a degree of talent. [...]
Backlash against globalism
In a previous post, our two options for future civilization were revealed: Managerial. Like attending a job, days at an American high school or going to a mall, the managerial state consists of people who have nothing in common except wanting to make money and not get murdered. As a result, a strong nanny/police state [...]
Globalism loves diversity
As mentioned in a previous post, globalism is an extension of liberalism, and since 1789 it has been re-making the world in its own image. Globalism is a method by which individuals unite into a crowd to demand no oversight, no social hierarchy, no shared values and no requirements for interacting with civilization except the [...]
