A few random posts…

  • Left vs. Right: an alternative view
    We tend to talk about politics/government in terms of left vs. right. What does that mean? Is there another way of talking about it that makes things clearer?
  • Inequality
    Economic inequality, wealth or income, is often adduced as a problem to be fixed by Marxism. Is it really, or is it at worst a proxy for real societal problems?
  • Victimhood culture
    An introduction to, and brief exploration of, the notion of "victimhood culture" as a successor to honor culture and dignity culture.
  • Fragility
    Regardless of Marxist intentions, the results are inevitable due to the accumulation of power at the core of a Marxist government
  • Incompatibility
    Marxism must also be opposed because it is fundamentally incompatible with several other systems, all of which are worth preserving in their own right.
