    Do You Dare Even Look? — Forecast 2024“I’ve also lost patience with the Sharia of the political left taking over the entire system.” — David Collum Historians of the future, flash-frying peccary testicles and mesquite pods over their campfires, will wonder at how the archetypal Shining City on a Hill of America’s storied yesteryear got transformed into the roach motel that our country has become on the threshold of 2024 CE. Will they be as stupidly bewildered as, in our time, the faculty at Harvard, the editors of The New York Times, or the directorate of the CDC? Or will...

    A Time of LawlessnessVery soon the kinetic aspect of WWIII will kick off and the international entanglements of the Biden Administration will become obviously treasonous. It might not even take the actual entry of the war to mark it. As soon as the Israeli ground attack starts, the United States will come apart from within by the recently demonstrated Palestinian forces already here, brought in over the past two years of open borders. If not them, some other hostile forces. The U.S. is weak in every way one wants to measure it, except in its domestic fighting forces that are...

    They Are That Evil We have plenty of treason. It isn’t hidden. It isn’t even debated. The fact of it is recognized, but what is lacking is a will to engage that treason with consequences. Who would do it? The average person on the street sees it, recognizes it as such, but they are and have been indoctrinated in the rule of law, so they expect that out of the hundreds of thousands employed in law enforcement that the law would be enforced. Why does that seem so irrational? No one with a brain and the ability to do math...

    If you don't take collapse seriously, I don't take you seriouslyRegular readers know by now that I am a big fan of the demographic-structural theory (DST) proposed by cliodynamicist historians such as Jack Goldstone and Peter Turchin. The reason I find it so interesting is because of how intellectually satisfying it is. Most theories of history are linear and progressive, and their proponents often struggle to force a progressive narrative onto otherwise cyclical and chaotic series of historical events. Demographic-structural theory, through its explicitly cyclical approach to understanding the rise and fall of empires, not only makes more sense intellectually,...

    One might get the feeling that America is being out classed by Russia and China. While they rise, America drifts, floundering on a sea of greenness and wokism, effectively bound at the wrists from executing any self-defense. The supposedly “elected” officials, are doing everything they can to run the United States into the ground at the behest of its enemies. Ukraine is nothing but an extended money laundering event, the ties back to politicians not even denied, but open for any investigation, however slight and unmotivated. When the greater share of politicians in any government do not serve the people...
