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 [...]

Globalism is liberalism

When you live in a dying time, you are told many things about history. You are told to rely upon those ideas as truths. Only later do you learn they were propaganda, constructed to manipulate you toward thinking in a political way. Conservatives tried to keep our time from becoming a dying one. Tooth and [...]

Anatomy of a parasite

As you read this article, try not to react until you have finished reading it, gotten a cup of tea and sat down with a cookie to nibble, and then thought it through in a systematic and logical factor. You are subject to the most powerful media machine ever created, and its support from the [...]

The little guy, tyrant

Our society is essentially divided between two narratives. In one, the little guy is oppressed by big institutions. In the other, the little guy and his failings are why we need institutions. The former view, shared by anyone on the leftist spectrum from anarchist through moderate Democrat all the way to die-hard Communist, sees the [...]

Pyramid power

If you tried to list the longest-lived things, built by man, chances are that Pyramids would be at, or very near, the top. And why is that? Let’s look first at the geometry involved… The base is huge. Many, many stone blocks, arranged in a square, forming that base. Going up, many more blocks, never [...]

Change

Mahatma Gandhi once said that you have to become the change you seek in the world, and while quoting known poster-ready icons for peace is annoying, some truth can be found in that statement. Until the individual is clear about what change is desired, the change that arrives will be more like its opposite. Right [...]

Cancer

One fine fall day, a massive grumbling from the stomach split the silent morning. The cells on break time were hanging loose at their favorite watering hole, a looped vein near the pyloric sphincter that tended to accumulate abundant nutrients. And, as usual, the talk turned to the lack of a comfortable living in the [...]

The 1%

The word “misanthrope” carries a certain charge with it. It’s either lumped in with socially unacceptable ideas like Satanism, pedophilia and fascism or it’s adopted as a proud badge of equanimous hatred, a refusal to discriminate and thus a writing off of the entire species. Yet what we can learn from misanthropy is that: all [...]

The angry mob

When you think about politics, you quickly see how it is important to separate cause and effect. If an effect is what you want, you have to figure out what kind of action would cause that effect, and make that action come about. Some people haven’t gotten the memo however and continue to demand effects [...]

Lessons from the Arab spring

We talk a lot, during revolutions, about the power of the people. In my view, the people compare to muscles. If coordinated, they work together and make change in the world; if this coordination is not backed by a clear and realistic goal, the muscles wreak havoc like a flailing limb. During the Arab spring [...]
