Today's Civil Strife Is Rooted in Economic Frustration and Fallacy

Dan Sanchez writes: "The state has impoverished its subjects through its ruinous burdens and meddling, and it has used democratic demagoguery to shift the blame and pit its victims against each other. It has divided America up into rival ravenous tribes, and the crowds we see facing off in the streets of Berkeley are the vanguards of those hungry hordes."

Here’s why ‘one size fits all’ political solutions are doomed to fail

There is a persistent danger in attempting to apply universal ‘one size fits all’ solutions to every political crisis across the globe.
This is the primary reason why solutions based on broad, sweeping  ideological dogmas tend to produce inferior results to those based on specific problem solving endeavours.
A clear example of this is the age old ‘right versus left’/’conservative versus socialist’ debate. There is no universal answer, it merely depends what is the best specific situation to any given crisis.

Hypocritical Partisans Pass Political Power

We hear angry complaints from Trump's enemies that he is overstepping his authority, and they are right to say so. They didn't say the same of Obama when he was behaving in many of the same ways, but they did when Bush was President. The same is true of Trump supporters who were outraged at Obama, happy with Bush, angry with Clinton, etc. The problem with this inconsistency should be apparent, if not obvious. But is the problem rooted in the parties, their members, or our secession of authority in the first place?

Ricardo Duchesne - Radical Liberal Norms That Lead to the Decline of the West - Hour 1

Ricardo Duchesne, Professor at The University of New Brunswick, Canada, is the author of The Uniqueness of Western Civilization (2011), and Faustian Man in a Multicultural Age, released in March 2017 by Arktos Books. He is one of the co-editors and principal writer of the blog Council of European Canadians. He just completed a manuscript with the tentative title "Mass Immigration, Diversity, and the Destruction of Canada". He is the only academic in Canada, and possibly the Western world, who rejects totally the diversification of Western nations in favour of European Ethnic Identity.

Donald Trump and the End of History: Did Trump supporters just have a Fukuyama moment?

In 1992, Francis Fukuyama published a book called The End of History and The Last Man. Fukuyama’s premise was that having ‘won’ the Cold War, American style liberal democracy and capitalism would be the perpetual and constant force guiding the world forever more. Alternative styles of geo-politics, government and economics were a thing of the past; a kind of erroneous trial process that had at long last reached the ‘correct’ conclusion.

Public School Mind Control – Brett Veinotte of School Sucks w/Jay Dyer (Half)

Brett Veinotte of the popular podcast The School Sucks Project joins me to cover the MK Ultra mind control facilities known as public schools. Brett discusses how American education has always been used by the oligarchic power structure to produce the drone clone force needed. We cover the salvific mindset of the early planners of public education, the educational conspiracy, Common Core, as well as the issue of “philosophy of liberty” and whether it requires more.

How Nationalism and Socialism Arose from the French Revolution

Then, just as liberalism began to transform the world, two pernicious ideas began to vie with it. Nationalism and socialism began to capture the imaginations of intellectuals and would eventually displace liberalism completely in the hearts and minds of the West.
Liberalism unlocked humanity’s creative potential, yielding the first ever rise of widespread abundance through industrial mass production. Nationalism and socialism unleashed humanity’s capacity for destruction, unleashing the first ever rise of industrial-scale mass murder.
