Do White Ethnicities Understand That They and Their Values Are Under Attack?

Recently I was enjoying a draft beer with a friend.   Charlie Kirk’s assassination became a topic of discussion.   We wondered if Kirk’s assassination would have an awakening effect.

My friend thought that the Yellowstone episodes showed an awakening and that Kirk’s assassination would broaden it.  Yellowstone was a long series and highly popular. I have not seen the episodes as I do not have time for entertainment platforms.  For me life is all work. My friend’s descriptions of the characters B...

Leftist Arguments Justifying the Murder of Charlie Kirk

If you’re like me and have been watching the news feeds and social media for developments on the Charlie Kirk assassination, you have probably also come across a disturbing army of leftists online cheering for the conservative speaker’s death. Some posts, featuring people laughing and celebrating, have tens-of-thousands of upvotes. It’s not just the comments, it’s the mob of crazies supporting the comments.

What I see in this mountain of degenerate psychopathy is confirmation. I and many other a...

The Dark History of Hormone and Puberty Blockers

Transgenderism has rapidly become one of the most contentious political issues in our country and due to its rapid rise, a variety of theories have been put forward to explain where it emerged from. Remarkably, I almost never see what I believe to be one of the most important facets of the topic discussed—the immense dangers of hormonal blockers routinely used in this field or the appalling history of these drugs and how again and again, they’ve been thrust into new markets they had no place eve...

The Assassination of Charlie Kirk

I don’t spend any time on social media nor do I have any interest in the mainstream conservative movement, so I’d only been very slightly aware of Charlie Kirk prior to his sudden assassination on Wednesday, shot dead at the age of 31 by a sniper while speaking at the University of Utah Utah Valley University.

I’d vaguely known that Kirk was a young conservative activist who had dropped out of community college as a teenager about a dozen years earlier to found Turning Point USA, an activist org...

American Religiosity: Trend, Revolutionary, or a Passive Movement

The Ascending Crisis

America is rapidly changing; the post-war consensus of 1945 is beginning to break among young conservative Americans. Recently, with the assasination of Charlie Kirk, the rhetoric among the online right and even centrist Americans has boiled over into calls of action. Along with this, there is also a massive Christian element to this rhetoric, more than merely calls to prayer and fasting; Kirk is being seen as a martyr for the Christian faith, the interview where he states ...

We Must Stop Wars for Profit, Wars With No Declaration of War, or Wars Where Adversary Can’t Invade…Otherwise GIs Could Resign!

We have had Unmitigated Treason for more than 80 years. The American people have suffered a monumental loss of Lives, Freedom, and Prosperity because of Wars for Profit that have nothing to do with National Security. But they have everything to do with obscene profits for the Parasitic Super-Rich Ruling Class (PSRRC) and Congress.

The greed and corruption is so entrenched in Congress and the people are so brainwashed by the media that all attempts to stop this Treason have failed. It is understo...

Images, Words & Narratives Matter

“There are decades where nothing happens; and there are weeks where decades happen.” ― Vladimir Ilyich Lenin

“What we’ve got here is… failure to communicate. Some men you just can’t reach. So you get what we had here last week, which is the way he wants it… well, he gets it. I don’t like it any more than you men.” – Captain – Cool Hand Luke

It is fitting that I use a quote from a communist to begin this article because it is the communist ideology of hate, murder, and propaganda that has led us ...

Charlie Kirk Once Questioned if Ukraine Would Try To Kill Him

Slain conservative activist Charlie Kirk had claimed he received death threats on a daily basis for speaking out on issues including Washington’s funding of the Ukraine conflict. At least one assassination threat from a Ukrainian spokesperson could have targeted him personally, he reportedly said.

In 2023, Kiev’s Center for Countering Disinformation accused Kirk of “spreading Russian propaganda.” The following year, the Ukrainian media outlet Texty.org.ua placed Kirk and TPUSA on a blacklist of ...

Futility of Trying to Reason With Lunatics

For several years I’ve been turning over in my mind an idea that initially struck me as far-fetched, but now strikes me as a distinct possibility. Could it be that people suffering from some degree of mental illness are now heavily influencing or even directing cultural, political, and economic affairs? To put it more bluntly, are we now being constantly buffeted and even, in some jurisdictions, governed by lunatics?

I’d already been pondering this for some time when I stumbled across an essay t...

Is America Great Again Yet?

With the murder of 31-year-old noted conservative advocate Charlie Kirk, it’s worth asking an important question: Is America great again yet?

My answer: Far from it. In my book, Kirk’s killing demonstrates that America is still a very sick, dysfunctional nation. Not only are there periodic killings like this one, there are also mass killings. Just recently, there was the killing of those children at a Catholic school in Minneapolis. There was also the recent killing of 23-year-old Iryna Zarutska...
