Anarcho-Tyranny’s Left-wing Roots

Whatever else you might say about Sam Francis, you can’t deny that he nailed it with the term Anarcho-Tyranny: “we refuse to control real criminals (that’s the anarchy) so we control the innocent (that’s the tyranny).” Must I defend his assertion? The present legal climate is incredibly hostile to the decent, moral people (I want to say “law abiding” but following the law is nearly impossible these days), and anybody with a lick sense is looking over their shoulder, ever wary of Officer Friendly.  Brutes and layabouts populate the streets, graffiti is everywhere, and the only thing keeping the murder...

Even the Police State is Crumbling

For those of you unfamiliar with this story (there has been somewhat of a media blackout, after all), Keoni Galt has the full story – including why it is that so many of us feel a knee-jerk feeling of support for rogue ex-cop Chris Dorner. But to describe it in brief – Chris Dorner was an ex-military police officer in L.A., until he was fired from the job.  Which is kind of a nasty thing, to be honest – not quite as bad as a Dishonourable Discharge from the military (an Event which has quite the potential to undermine future...

NDAA 1021 – Another One Bites The Dust

Let me just start by saying that I am loosely of the opinion that the Upstart Rebel Government in the United States – as well its puppet clone here in Canada – are Terrfic Abominations of good social order (let alone good governance), and they fully deserve to implode under the weight of their civil services, and their marxist legislating.  To put it simply: I have no love of Democracy. That said, I find it sad to see one more nail put into the coffin of the American Experiment.  When Obama signs-off on Section 1021 (was 1031) of the NDAA,...

First Principles

In light of my new status as Patriarch, I figure now’s as good a time as any to revisit the foundational principles that inform my thoughts on Human Nature and Political Economy.  The broad schools of thought by which you could label me – Atheist, Men’s Rights Advocate, Libertarian, Anarchist, Capitalist, Rationalist, Reactionary, Objectivist, or Existentialist to name a few – might serve as good shorthand to sum up my stance, but in the Immortal Words of Eliezer Yudkowsky, Every Cause Wants To Be A Cult. And I ain’t down with religion – particularly not Dawkin’s. The problems with ideology...

What’s wrong with this society?

I’ll tell you what’s wrong with it: a little known film called Dirty Harry. For those of you lucky enough (or young enough) never to have heard of this cinematic abortion, let me sketch out the plot. First off, credit where credit’s due: Dirty Harry’s a badass cop who follows his own rules, and doesn’t afraid of anything. I know what you’re thinking. “Did he fire six shots or only five?” Well, to tell you the truth, in all this excitement I kind of lost track myself. But being as this is a .44 Magnum, the most powerful handgun in...
