And the Eclipse of American Exceptionalism It’s time to ask if the surprise outcome of the 2024 US Presidential Election reflects a growing rift between different factions within the technocratic elite or if it’s only a psyop to engineer a low-level civil war between rednecks and cosmopolitan Americans. Many still believe Trump, with Robert F

The Free Movement Pivot
Cognitive dissonance in an era of high-tech surveillance In the ongoing debate on the sustainability of high levels of rapid migration in terms of infrastructure and social cohesion, one trend just caught my eye.

Phasing you out

Global Splintering
What’s going on? Are we seeing a divisive split among global technocrats that cuts into the heart of Western administrations? Only a few months ago, Sir Keir Starmer was the darling of the progressive mainstream media. The BBC salivated over him as he entered 10 Downing Street and laid down the new law of the

Open Season on the Plebs
Could the spectre of the elusive far-right be the new covid? These days left and right-wing refer more to your cultural outlook than your class allegiance.

Order out of Chaos
How the managerial classes exploit social tensions to expand surveillance and censorship In just four weeks, Sir Keir Starmer’s new administration has revealed, in case there was any doubt, its true authoritarian intents as it seizes the opportunities provided by a series of angry protests and riots to clamp down on what it likes to

The Establishment wins again
What a big surprise. The blob has engineered another colour revolution. Nominally the leader of the blue team, Rishi Sunak, conceded defeat to the leader of the Red Team, the charmless Sir Keir Starmer of Davos.

The rise of progressive Technocrats Why do we call extreme advocates of centralisation moderates and proponents of greater self-determination extremists?

Over to you, Sir Keir Davos
If Rishi Sunak cared about his parliamentary career, he could not have picked a worse time for a General Election. The main opposition party, Labour, is hardly united. Its former leader, Jeremy Corbyn, is standing as an independent. Its activists are in open rebellion against the party’s failure to condemn Israeli war crimes in Gaza.

Last month, the world’s movers and shakers met up in the Swiss ski resort of Davos.

Shifting Narratives at the Crossroads of Civilisation
Things are about to turn very nasty If you believe the opinion polls, Sir Keir Starmer’s Labour Party is poised to win by a country mile at the next general election.

Some foreign observers may gloat over the disturbing scenes of rioting, arson, looting and urban warfare in the banlieues of French cities over the last week with an arrogant sense of schadenfreude, blaming the EU leadership, the French governance team, complacent left-branded politicians and naïve French voters for failing to address the root causes of

Infantile Revolutionary Defeatism
On the eve of the Great War that would lead to over 22 million avoidable deaths, Lenin called the defeat of Russian Tsarism the lesser of two evils, but urged his German and Austro-Hungarian comrades to oppose their Kaisers with the same vigour.

Whom may you hate?
When hatred means only loathing protected categories, but it’s fine to direct your anger at new outgroups. As the antithesis to love, hatred is a natural emotion as old as humanity itself. We hate people who, we believe, mean us harm. By “us” I mean our immediate in-group, ourselves, our family and our wider community.

A Scottish politician, Karen Adam MSP, triggered a massive online backlash by tweeting paedophiles and predators are people, adding only that they are people who abuse.
