The 1981 "end of days" film Early Warning now seems oddly prescient in some ways. As you can see in this clip, it predicted a future in which leaders from around the world would gather to strategize coordinated management of the world's population, taking advantage of crises ("never waste a crisis") to implement tracking numbers, measures to control public opinion, digital … [Read more...]
How Centrists And Moderates Became Right-Wing
UPDATE: Elon Musk, whose political positions have generally been moderate, at times even slightly left-wing, is now a "right-winger." Per Daily Wire: "'I have voted overwhelmingly for Democrats, historically,' Musk acknowledged. 'Like I’m not sure, I might never have voted for a Republican, just to be clear. Now this election I will." Several academic and polling studies … [Read more...]
Tuttle Twins TV: A Libertarian Show For Kids
The makers of the Tuttle Twins books -- which teach kids about free-markets, rule of law, etc. -- have produced a TV show based on the books. Where else are kids going to hear about Frédéric Bastiat and see kids lead a rebellion against bad laws? Tuttle Twins TV looks pretty awesome. You can find episodes of the Tuttle Twins for free on YouTube. Here's episode … [Read more...]
Will Of The People: Tim Pool Song Rocks
Who knew Tim Pool could also write music and perform as well? In this excellent song by him -- Will of the People -- he calls out the arrogance of those who try to justify political violence, and responds to them with this bit of wisdom put to tune: violence begets violence. It doesn't change anyone's mind but fuels the cycle. [Hey, Antifa, call your office.] The music video … [Read more...]
Robert Moses Roasted As He Deserves In New Play
The Spectator has just published an article about New York City "master planner" Robert Moses, "the psychopath who wrecked New York" back in the 1950s. Moses wanted to "modernize" the city, i.e., bulldoze miles of classic architecture and replace it with modern skyscrapers connected by highways. In the process, he destroyed a lot of neighborhoods and replaced them with … [Read more...]
Jussie Smollett Is A Victim, Act II
The strange case of actor Jussie Smollett has finally closed, but in the course of unraveling it served to expose something rather interesting: Jussie Smollett is remarkably well-connected for a B-actor getting small parts -- to no less than the Obamas as well as '60's radical communist Angela Davis. It seems there is a little nest of leftists in power who people all know each … [Read more...]
The Media Accountability Project: Kyle Fights Back
You may recall that during the trial of then 17-year-old Kyle Rittenhouse he was called a racist, white supremacist, murderer, etc. -- often because the vacuous "news" sources in question assumed, apparently by common agreement, that the two men he shot were black; spoiler: they were two white guys, and since they were ANTIFA, one was a wife beater and the other a pedophile. In … [Read more...]

WSJ: James Bond Is No Longer James Bond
The Wall Street Journal had a good editorial on the demise of the James Bond movies. In short, James Bond is no longer James Bond. "The original James Bond was suave and sassy while he resolved sinister plots. He exemplified cool: He drank vodka martinis but never to excess, was impeccably dressed and, though flirty, was a gentleman. The early films were filled with innuendo … [Read more...]
Media Narratives, Lies, And Slander: Three Films
PJMedia had a good article on the left's pattern of trying to destroy young men by creating false media narratives about them. They mention Kyle Rittenhouse, Nick Sandmann, George Zimmerman, The Duke LaCrosse Team, Richard Jewell, victims of the Tawana Brawley hoax, and Bernhardt Goetz. In a couple of cases, these have been memorialized in films. The documentary Rush to … [Read more...]
