In her own way, commentator Diana Wong [above] made some good points about Rand Paul. [Note: I encourage everyone first to watch to the video, which was also uploaded to YouTube; otherwise, this response might not make sense. The title for the video apparently comes from another video posted by Lyndon LaRouche [...]
Mary Ruwart’s celebrated 1993 book “Healing Our World in the Age of Aggression” has been released as a free audiobook at Free Keene.
In the book, Ruwart convincingly demonstrates how aggression dampens community involvement and personal responsibility, whereas libertarian principles offer compassion for those in need.
The book played an important role in evolving [...]
To be clear, I am not here to bury religion. Faith and religion are distinct yet complementary concepts. As a matter of fact, someone could attempt to justify a religious belief strictly on objective empirical (fact-based) evidence. I also recognize that most people accept their religious belief in some part on emperical evidence. Often, people [...]
In Karl Marx’s and Frederick Engels’ early portrayal of communism, they envisioned an end to the artificial scarcity and economic turbulence they believed was set in place by the private ownership of capital. No longer would an individual be confined to an “exclusive sphere of activity, which is forced upon him and from which he [...]
If I could only make one presidential decision, for practical and moral reasons, I’d have to resign. It only makes sense.
I’d want to disband the military or abolish the CIA. Maybe the government entirely? That would be ideal.
But what effect would it have? If we had some round robin presidential selection system, the [...]
Generally, I agree that the terms “left” and “right” in the mainstream political vernacular are a false alternative. Both liberals and conservatives support a violent organization that usurps individual rights and autonomy by its very existence. They may do so for different reasons, but both are reactionary hypocrites or at least very confused.
I do [...]
Not only are we all anarchists now, there are abundant examples of anarchism working fabulously well. However, instead of opening anarchic relationships to everyone, governments have worked to abolish them from the private sphere and instead centralize anarchic relationships into the hands of politicians. I know it sounds strange that anarchy [...]

Re: Thoughts on Individualism (Why Libertarianism is Wrong)
William Pierce, who according to Wikipedia, was a white nationalist and founder of Cosmotheism, “a religion based on white racialism, pantheism, eugenics, and National Socialism.” Until his death in 2002, he was probably most well-known as the author of “The Turner Diaries,” which depicts a violent revolution leading to the overthrow of the [...]
