The Inevitability of Conspiracy Theories
“I have always said, the first Whig was the Devil.” ~ Samuel L. Johnson (1709-1784) The terms Left and Right get bandied about quite a bit, and Nailing Down a meaning is no simple task. Is it just a sort of shorthand for Conservative and Liberal? Not if it has a coherent meaning; the parties can never make up their minds on what they want. Seventy years ago the Republicans were the Big Government Moral Dreamers, pro-black to their core, while the Democrats where the pro-racist-union groupies. Then Civil Rights happened, and everything turned on its head. The Democrats became...
Recap: The Collapse is Coming
It is the conceit of any Ideologue that he has a direct line on the Truth. For your typical Talking Head, they simply assume that their opponent is an idiot – or perhaps misguided. Those who are more intellectually honest might go so far as to admit that the Complement of their Political Shade have some good points; they might even admit to being ignorant on whether red or blue is most correct in any given situation. After all, they’re both playing on the same field. Here in the Reactionary Right, we don’t have that luxury. Our stance is –...

Poor Little Trayvon: Profiteering Off Hate
To understand Trayvon Martin, you first must understand Charles Manson. A condensed summation from Pravda: Charles Milles Manson (born November 12, 1934) is an American criminal who led what became known as the Manson Family, a quasi-commune that arose in California in the late 1960s. He was found guilty of conspiracy to commit the Tate/LaBianca murders carried out by members of the group at his instruction. … [And eventually convicted] … Manson believed in what he called “Helter Skelter,” a term he took from the song of the same name by The Beatles. Manson believed Helter Skelter to be an...
Democracy Will Fail You
Yes, Politics is Interesting – believe me, I get it. There’s nothing inherently wrong with being a political junkie. After all, some men like fishing; others like fowling. Some men just like to hear the voice off the teleprompter roaring. And I’m just as bad as the worst of them. But as captivating as it might be – watching their deft manipulation of the public, trying to spot the strings of the special interest groups, gambling on whom the Average Bear will choose – I know not to take it seriously. Not that it isn’t serious, mind you – it’s...
Combatting Cultural Marxism
Cultural Marxism is one of those terms that gets thrown around a lot, and like all such terms it tends to suffer from Adaptive Decay. It therefore behooves me to write a Brief History on what the term really means. We start with Trotsky and the New Soviet Man. Communism in practice is a centralized bureaucracy with sufficient guns to carry out its plans. They – the educated, chosen elite – unabashedly claim the Wisdom to direct all individual behaviour. Their Scholarship, you see, has granted them Greater Insight into the human condition than any Priest could ever dream of. ...
Bullying; the Spirit of our Time
I don’t know why bullying’s been in the media for the past few months; if it were because of a specific suicide, or a rash of suicides, I’m sure I would of heard of it. Instead the conversation has lacked context, as if it had sprung up ex-nihilo into the minds of journalists and AM radio hosts alike. There’s no recently-marketed study they all reference, and there’s no particular politician they grill. It really does seem to be a Grass Roots sorta thing. Which I take as Proof Positive that it was Astro Turfed. I know that if I look...
Just Following Orders…
…the simpering excuse of the Moral Coward. It’s lesser form, “I’m just doing my job,” brings to mind the incompetent half-ass; the man at the printing store who delivers $500 worth of stationary to you, with an obvious typo in the title – a typo you missed as you wrote the order in haste – which he didn’t think worthy of a telephone call to verify.* For any Man of Red Blood, no explanation of the Nuremburg Defense is necessary: Right is Right, and Wrong is Wrong. The very pathways of our souls are ordered along these lines. Debates, perhaps,...
