Pyramid of far-right radicalization

Fear and White Supremacy

White supremacy has been the GOP’s organizing principle for more than a half century. The “Great Replacement Theory” is the 21st century version of a historic trend. The Republican Party’s “Southern Strategy” successfully mobilized white Americans...

Happy Birthday Karl

Against the Evil that is organized religion

Burn a church and watch the flames Autumn embers turn to grey Wooden crosses in decay

Mental Health and the economic system

Mental health has become a major issue in our society today, and capitalism plays a large role in people’s mental health. Capitalism is an economic system that prioritizes the accumulation of wealth, and it encourages an individualistic culture of...

"Cultural Marxism"

The Right uses “Marxism” to describe everything from LGBTQ rights to corporate diversity measures. It’s a deeply confused definition. But it’s not wrong about one thing: Marxists do indeed want to dismantle all forms of oppression. The American...

In purely technological terms, the USSR trumped the USA. Sputnik and Gagarin were followed by a series of other firsts: the first woman in space, first lunar impact, first image of the dark side of the moon, first space rover and first space station...

What could and should have been

"My friend! We live in a wonderful time - a time of great construction, extraordinary discoveries, a time of the irrepressible movement of our society towards communism. Our wonderful time is full of the romance of creating something new, full of big...

Russian Cosmism

Cosmism emerged in Russia before the October Revolution and developed through the 1920s and 1930s; like Marxism and the European avant-garde, two other movements that shared this intellectual moment, Russian Cosmism rejected the contemplative for the...
