...where the Two become the One
Why are so many people upset when they hear an opinion that differs even slightly from their own? Why are they unable to consider different opinions, and weigh their merits based on the evidence and logic behind them, in a fair minded manner? Why do they personally attack the character of those who share perspectives that do not align with society and social progressiveness? What if it is because humanity […] Read more »
This is one layer of the grand deception, of those who control our world — the corporatocracy. Contrary to what is mentioned in this otherwise brilliant video, terrorism isn’t just a reaction to the evil US empire, but another competing faction cultivated by the Elite to further their own goals. Remember, each aspect of this entire sham is compartmentalized, and keeps those involved in each aspect insulated from the other […] Read more »
“Our envy of others devours us most of all.” (Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn, Gulag Archipelago) Stretching back to the time of the Ancient Greeks, countless philosophers have contemplated the nature of envy, or what Immanuel Kant described as the “tendency to perceive with displeasure the good of others.” (Immanuel Kant) Those who have written about envy, be it Aristotle, Aquinas, Adam Smith, Schopenhauer or Nietzsche, have all come to a similar conclusion […] Read more »
Unfettered immigration and open borders is problematic in the same way that an arranged marriage is problematic. It forces two parties to cohabitate together, rather than allowing them to voluntarily choose to be with those they are most attracted to and aligned with. Like an arranged (forced) marriage, forcing cultural integration is a violation of the non-aggression principle, and limits the individual’s opportunity for voluntary interactions in their home regions. […] Read more »
It sounds like another Hegelian dialectic of divide and conquer, as the mere fact that the show’s writers were putting in things such as “micro aggressions” in their scripts would not have been allowed unless it was to set up the show’s cancellation as a politically motivated “hit job”. It would have been far more credible in my eyes if the show’s writing wasn’t already conservative, because the cancellation would […] Read more »
I wrote an article nine days ago called “Bill Nye the Propaganda Guy“, and this is a video made by Truthstream Media with a similar name, which I highly recommend. Science has become synonymous with propaganda these days, where it is more of a slogan that people say in greeting each other than a discipline dedicated to discovering objective truth. Read more »
An introductory look at what Voluntarism is, and it’s core value non-aggression. Libertarianism, also known as ancap, anarcho-capitalism, and voluntaryism (not to be confused with left libertarianism / anarchy, which is connected to socialism, communism, and social justice movements). https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H8TI-pm0m2o Read more »
Look, it’s Bill Nye the Propaganda Guy! The new Netflix series is just awful, and pushes what is called “motivated science”, otherwise known as propaganda. It defends man made climate change (the solar system is heating up, not just our planet), big pharma, vaccines, artificial intelligence, GMO’s, overpopulation, and the new non binary gender trend. That about covers every major battleground being waged between true science vs State sanctioned propaganda […] Read more »
If all Marxists were as pro free speech as Brendan O’Neil, we’d probably be more favorably disposed towards them, but unfortunately these days, Brendan is an outlier. ~Independent Man Read more »

Here is how to spot politically and/or financially motivated science, which is science that furthers political and/or financial agendas and interests. Motivated science could be used as propaganda for an agenda, or could be supported by propaganda in the form of advertising and media coverage, to ensure financial and other forms of gain. “The product of scientific achievements should be for sale. The scientist should not.” ~A.E. Samaan True science […] Read more »

Hate speech laws criminalizes people’s right to open dialogue on sensitive issues, which not only violates our right to free speech, it also cultivates fringe hate groups, while removing our ability to learn how to stand up for our personal values as mature human beings. We absolutely need free speech and the ability to offend others, so that we can encourage dialogue about difficult and emotionally charged topics. Such dialogues […] Read more »
