It is generally assumed that leftists are anti-nationalist and pro-globalist, but this overlooks the fact that leftism was as much a father of nationalism as rightism was. Indeed, at certain moments in history, it was leftism that was pro-nationalist while rightism was anti-nationalist. Of course, the meanings and connotations of ‘leftism’ and ‘rightism’ have changed... Read More
Ever notice that religious people and so-called 'progressive' types tend to be the most self-righteous, sanctimonious, and holier-than-thou?

From the French Revolution to BLM
I recently had the pleasure of speaking with Fróði Midjord and Andrew Joyce on Edmund Burke’s classic counter-revolutionary text, Reflections on the Revolution in France.
