Same problem as anarcho capitalism. The vacuum is apt to be filled. And today it is filled with an official government belief system that daily becomes more extreme, and is enforced more coercively. In retrospect it is clear that in England the demand to disestablish the Anglican Church came from a competing religion, then called Evangelism, descended from Puritanism, which was already most of the way to becoming the state religion of England though it continually changed its name in …

How to give effect to Brexit
Supposedly, if the British voted for exit, the government would immediately invoke article 50 – would give notice that Britain was resigning from the EU. That is what the prime Minister told them. Well, the British voted for exit, and surprise, surprise, the government is not invoking article 50. The prime minister lied. What a surprise. Are you surprised? And every day, the most appalling scum, mostly black Muslims from darkest Africa, continue to pour through Calais to live on …
George Soros on Brexit
Mixed in amongst the usual lies, were some truths. The “Leave†campaign exploited the deteriorating refugee situation – symbolized by frightening images of thousands of asylum-seekers concentrating in Calais, desperate to enter Britain by any means necessary – to stoke fear of “uncontrolled†immigration from other EU member states. Why the quote marks around “uncontrolled†Soros? Was not that the plan all along – to bring in five hundred million males over the next few years from Africa and the …
All slopes are slippery
The Guardian remarks: The deeper fear among Tory remainers now isn’t just of a recession. It’s about the rise of something new in British politics When Tony Abbott halted illegal immigration to Australia he took a total no exceptions policy – not one illegal would be allowed in or allowed to stay, however sad his case, not one anchor baby would be allowed to stay. A power struggle ensued over a tiny handful of cute babies with photogenic ailments requiring …
Church Authority versus Sovereign authority
The natural tendency is for Church and Sovereign to become one (interpreting Religion and Church broadly to include progressivism as a religion and Harvard as its Church)Â If one, the question goes away. But sometimes church and sovereign are geographically different, as when the Holy Roman Empire lost power, resulting in one Roman Catholic Church and many Roman Catholic Kings. Whereupon trouble ensues, and the question becomes urgent. What tends to happen is that the Pope proclaims himself superior to …
Trump for King
This image, and this entire blog is licensed under the Creative Commons Attribution-Share Alike 3.0 License This is an outline of how President Trump might well become King Trump the first, if we are sufficiently lucky and virtuous. The world is sick of anarcho tyranny, and hungers unknowingly for the power and authority of Kings. The recent election of Duterte, on a platform of his praetorians simply killing the bad guys out of hand without charges or trials, is an …
Libertarianism
Most neo reactionaries are ex libertarians, or ex anarchists. Indeed, if you are a feudalist you are not even an ex anarchist. You are an anarcho capitalist who doubts that most people should be allowed authority in the anarcho capitalist system of enforcement and justice, or are likely to receive a substantial voice. “I pencil†is a famous criticism of socialism, which shows how difficult it is to centrally plan a pencil. The problem is made much easier by good …
Duerte Harry
If the votes are honestly counted, Duerte Harry will be the next president of the Philippines. He was previously mayor of Davao, where he solved a crime problem, in substantial part a problem of Muslim criminals predating on Christians, by killing criminals. A lot of criminals. Of all religions. When I was in Davao, some people threatened him with lawfare, and he responded in his newspaper that if they sued him, he would kill them, their wives, and their children. …
Formalism
Moldbug argued for Formalism – that the official reality of political power should match up with the actual reality. And I would add to that the rectification of names: That words should cut reality at the joints, rather than lay a comforting layer of snow over what everyone knows but no one can actually say. We need to bring back words like “bastard” to accurately describe the consequences of fatherlessness. The advantage of formalism is illustrated by comparing Dubai with …
Rabid Puppies and My Little Pony
For a long time the major science fiction publishing houses have been vomiting forth tedious hate filled political lectures that patronizingly scold the traditional audience for science fiction and fantasy: White males. The only part of what they produce that actually sells is romance porn for women where the female protagonist or gay bottom protagonist gets nailed by demons, dinosaurs, vampires, zombies, and werewolves. (I have only just now discovered that dinosaur porn actually exists. I thought it was a …
