“We are Forerunners. Guardians of all that exists. The roots of the Galaxy have grown deep under our careful tending. Where there is life, the wisdom of our countless generations has saturated the soil. Our strength is a luminous sun, towards which all intelligence blossoms… And the impervious shelter, beneath which it has prospered.”

Of Wolves and Rabbits

The Elusive Wapiti has an interesting article up in which he references a recent study that argues that, basically, Western society has gotten significantly stupider over time to draw some interesting conclusions: Certainly their theory has superficial merit, for it...

God Bless Texas

It’s always refreshing to travel from the North to the South in this country, particularly if you’ve been reading The South Was Right! by the Kennedy brothers in the meantime. Right now I’m sitting in a hotel room near San Antonio after seeing a...

Xenophobia is a Survival Instinct

I have finally been catching up on my Red Pill reading in my not-exactly-abundant spare time. It was with more than passing interest that I read a rather provocative new post from Crazy Uncle Mitch that will undoubtedly cause the Gamma...

I’ve been meaning to publish this one for months now but have literally never bothered to sit down and hammer it out properly. Well, given that this weekend is all about setting aside some time to do things that must be done, here goes. The Libertarian...

Security or Freedom?

Obarmy’s reaction to the outrage of the people at his efforts to establish an American Panopticon are exactly what I expected from a high Delta with a massive inferiority complex: President Obama said Friday that the programs have made a difference in tracking...

Welcome to the Panopticon

Think what you will of Edward Snowden, but before you make up your mind,watch the entire interviewthat he did with The Guardian while on the run in Hong Kong. As far as I’m concerned, he’sa goddamn hero.This man sacrificed everything- a very lucrative...

Ladies, Here Are Your Choices…

I included this one in my weekend linkage post this week, but it’s worth expanding upon somewhat. This all started when an anonymous young female engineer named “AA” wrote to Vox and challenged him to explain certain views of his that she was very...
