Dishonest Abe

The American History iconoclasts are very busy these days, not unlike the Jacobins during the French Revolution, they switch seamlessly from guillotining statues to cancelling people. This is what the modern, Western left has become. While the sane and healthy rightfully lament that statues of Stonewall Jackson, Robert E. Lee, and yes even Frederick Douglass…

The Monopoly on Violence

As the old joke goes: “What is the difference between a minarchist and an anarchist?” A: About six months. The joke now needs to be amended to six months and/or this documentary. Thanks to everyone at Stateless Productions. Note: Duncan Lemp helped crowdfund this venture. God rest his soul.   DONATE NOW  

Bizarro World

If you feel out of place today, that is because you are normal. No, not in the derogatory “normie”, “blue-pilled” way, but in the well-adjusted, emotionally-stable, confident human being senses of the term. You have meaningful relationships. You enjoy physical, social interaction even conversation with other human beings. You, like me, detest “Eyes Wide Shut”…

Flattening the Curve is Today’s WMD

18 years ago.101 years ago. Same problem, but not without solutions. And, no, illegally quarantining people is not one of them. There is so much relevant historical perspective here, even if at first peering through the looking glass of history it does not seem as such. Almost a score ago, the Bush administration, run by…

Elk Deer and How Women Love Us for OUR Racks

True master of several arts: history, philosophy, podcasting, martial and (almost there in…) economics–Thaddeus Russell just posted his interview with the sublime Warren Farrell, hated truth-teller. Topics covered include gender roles, parenting, developmental psychology, the history of women’s and men’s liberation (former is much more storied and longer than the latter), the Cold War and…

The Mandatory All-In, Let it Ride

As Bernie Sanders stalks the Democratic nomination, pushing aside Mayor Pete, Leg-Hair Joe, and Pocahontas, this piece from economist Alexander Salter is a must read. While the 2020 contest for the White House is sure to be entertaining, and if there is a Sanders vs Trump matchup that would force the country into a greater…

The Question No One Ever Asks… About MLK

  While the Left does the Clinton two-step (Well, it’s permissible if he abused women because of what he stood for…) and the Right is sure to point the hypocrisy finger (What happened to #MeToo?) all of tomorrow, you know what is never asked and certainly has yet to be answered? If the FBI knew…

Honestly Not Abe’s Stuff

This is incredible even for Illinois. The curators at the Lincoln Museum spent over $22 million for a collection of Lincoln artifacts to lure more drones obeisant to the Lincoln Myth to Springfield. Not only did these dunces not authenticate the pieces before the purchase, but the most prized artifact (second-class relic for most Americans,…

Hawks By Any Other Name and Clothing

“Soleimani” from the Farsi via the Arabic means “man of peace”. I don’t know what “Trump” means from Old Nordic, nor do I much care. What I do care about, and the rest of the world ought to care about, is that these men and their aggressor cronies, vacuous neo-cons and lap-dog yes-men talk about…

Pot Legal in Illinois–God Save the Right; Other Not-So-Lit State Laws

Q: A blunt and a blintz then for you Governor? Gov. Pritzker: Why, yes! I’ll have the double order. I sure hope that these dopes in Illinois don’t pay attention to the inordinate taxes I’m taking out from sanctioned pot now. I’ll tell them it’s all going to fund state pensions and the prisons, I…
