  • The Most Important US Presidential Election of Our Lifetime

    The Most Important US Presidential Election of Our Lifetime

    Left-liberals plea every four years that this really is the most important election ever and time to hold our noses and send a Democrat to the White House. The manifest destiny of US world leadership, we are told, is at stake, as is our precious democracy which we have so generously been exporting abroad. Let’s […]

  • Two Cheeks of the Same

    Two Cheeks of the Same

    Needless is it for me to say to the thinking workingman that he has no choice between these two capitalist parties, that they are both pledged to the same system and that whether the one or the other succeeds, he will still remain the wage-working slave he is today. — Eugene V Debs, “Outlook for […]

  • Lessons of the European Elections

    The recent European Parliament elections shocked the mainstream European parties and their international friends and allies. The 720-member European legislature has largely been the handmaiden for the technocrats in Brussels, who craft the economic and social direction of the European Union. Since its inception, the EU has presented a stable, reliable face of capitalist rule […]

  • The EU Elections: The March of the Right

    The EU elections over June 6 to June 9 have presented a chaotically merry picture, certainly for those on the right of politics.  Not that the right in question is reliably homogeneous in any sense, nor hoping for a single theme of triumph.  A closer look at the gains made by the conservative side of […]

  • The Benevento Uprising

    In anarchist history, 8 April 1877, a group of anarchists including a young Errico Malatesta marched into the small village of Letino.

  • The Ugly Face of Anti-Communism

    Since the Russian revolution, the founding of the Communist International, and the organization of a revolutionary party “of a new type” in nearly every country, Communist and Workers Parties have been in the sights of every country’s bourgeoisie. In nearly all countries, the bourgeoisie, its political parties, its media, and its other henchmen have sought […]

  • The Intimate Embrace Between Liberalism and the Far Right

    The Intimate Embrace Between Liberalism and the Far Right

    For Comrade N. Sankaraiah (1922–2023) One of the curiosities of our time is that the far right is quite comfortable with the established institutions of liberal democracy. There are instances here and there of disgruntled political leaders who refuse to accept their defeat at the ballot box (such as Donald Trump and Jair Bolsonaro) and […]

  • Election Fever: A Fever Dream?

    Election Fever: A Fever Dream?

    With nearly sixteen months to go, we are well into the silly season. The campaigning, fund raising, maneuvering, plotting, and mud-slinging have already reached a fever-pitch. We are told that the 2024 Presidential election — like every Presidential election in my lifetime — holds the fate of the country in its grip. But it is […]

    Promethean City Builders vs Finance Capital Malthusians

Taking the side of the multipolarists of the East, I  identified Lyndon LaRouche as someone who bridged the gap between East and West. His concept of “The American system” defends the Enlightenment […]

  • The Only Populists that Billionaires Fund are Right-wingers

    The Only Populists that Billionaires Fund are Right-wingers

    The 372-page book that the European Center for Populism Studies published in March 2023, The Impacts of the Russian Invasion of Ukraine on Right-wing Populism in Europe, opens its Chapter (p. 200-209) on “The Russia-Ukraine War and Right-Wing Populism in Latvia” by saying something that has broad applicability across all U.S.-and-allied nations, Right-wing populism, and […]
