A Short Introduction to Universal Liberalism. It is a principle which, by definition, requires the promotion of the greatest good for the greatest number. Any principle which does not require this is inherently liable to produce net harm compared with a principle that does if applied in practice.

Ernesto Laclau and Chantal Mouffe's work in relationship to power, politics and International Relations. The Frankfurt School wants to change the narrative from class struggle to race hate. There's something terribly wrong with the idea of convincing people who don't feel oppressed that they are.

Anarchism at the End of the World. Primal anarchism is the only way of life that has ever worked or ever can. It is the only alternative to the pseudo-alternatives of the left and right, of optimism and pessimism, and even of theism and atheism. It is widely ignored, ridiculed and misunderstood.

Why We Must Lay A New Foundation. Much of contemporary thought — broadly dubbed “postmodernism” — abandons both reason and reality. It is the philosophical universe in which progressivism has flourished, conservatism has failed, and physiocracy must somehow develop.

Marcuse makes the case that to achieve a liberated utopia, man will have to be changed at the level of his fundamental needs and his biology, and that this can be accomplished by making him live in a society that “introjects” a new critical morality into him. It’s a truly alarming piece of work.

Is Critical Race Theory Marxist, as many insist, or is it not? What is the relationship between Marxism, neo-Marxism (Critical Theory), and Wokeness? All three criticize one another, and yet all three have a great deal obviously in common. Is there some common underlying thread? The answer is yes.

I mentioned some statistical data that appeared to challenge the common narrative that racism is widespread and systemic. My interlocutor’s reply was that he simply did not care about the data—his own experiences as a person of color were more important and trumped any appeal to statistics.

A Manifesto for the Based, from New Discourses by James Lindsay. Being based is the opposite of being Woke. Woke is wholly intolerant of everything but itself. It, because it is cynical of every motivation, it never acts in good faith. It demands absolute conformity and tolerates no dissent.
