Mass Media Is The Enemy Of The People Like The Cage Is The Enemy Of The Bird
Mass Media Is The Enemy Of The People Like The Cage Is The Enemy Of The Bird The Guardian has just published an actual, non-fictional op-ed that is titled “Is my Jewish three-year-old too young to learn about antisemitism?”, about a concerned mother who is teaching her toddler about the Holocaust in case Jeremy Corbyn becomes […]
Fuck You, Actually.
Fuck You, Actually. For months leftist analysts have been warning that the increasingly hysterical anti-Russia narratives being aggressively promoted by the western media would eventually be used to target the political left.

Meet Britain’s Nuclear Nutcase: Defense Secretary Micheal Fallon
Meet Britain’s Nuclear Nutcase: Defense Secretary Micheal Fallon Michael Fallon’s recent claim that Britain under Theresa May’s leadership would be willing to launch a preemptive nuclear strike confirms what many suspected – namely that the British people are being ruled by a clutch of certifiable fanatics who will get us all destroyed unless they can be reined […]
“Free Stuff” Isn’t All That It’s Cracked Up to Be
“Free Stuff” Isn’t All That It’s Cracked Up to Be To my British and American friends who must deal with the socialist nonsense of Bernie Sanders and Jeremy Corbyn, I found this poem.

In Europe governments are answerable to the EU, Washington, and private bankers and not to their peoples. In the UK the […]

Another World is Inevitable
Another World is Inevitable I don’t normally comment in these essays on the political affairs of other countries. As I’ve noted more than once here, the last thing the rest of the world needs is one more clueless American telling everyone else on the planet what to do. What’s more, as the United States busies itself […]
