Each day at just after midnight Eastern, a post like this one is created for contributors and readers of this site to upload news links and video links on the issues that concern this site. Most notably, Islam and its effects on Classical Civilization, and various forms of leftism from Soviet era communism, to postmodernism and all the flavours of galloping statism and totalitarianism such as Nazism and Fascism which are increasingly snuffing out the classical liberalism which created our near, miraculous civilization the West has been building since the time of Socrates.
This document was written around the time this site was created, for those who wish to understand what this site is about. And while our understanding of the world and events has grown since then, the basic ideas remain sound and true to the purpose.
So please post all links, thoughts and ideas that you feel will benefit the readers of this site to the comments under this post each day. And thank you all for your contributions.
This is the new Samizdat. We must use it while we can.
For those interested, please check out https://vladtepesblog.substack.com/ as an another avenue of expression. The Substack is a different project in a sense. It is older videos that in the light of subsequent events, look different or of increased importance, Check it out now and again if you like. But use it safely.
ADDENDUM:
This site operates more at the philosophical level of the communist/Islamic revolution which is obliterating Western Civilization. Politics, culture, law are all down stream from philosophy. Understanding the philosophy of the attack is to understand what is an attack and develop tactics, both individually and collectively against them. The attack comes entirely (so far) in the form of Dialectics. To understand dialectics, watch and read everything you can by Maj. (Ret.) Stephen Coughlin.
Here is a repost of the simplest explanation, or at least the shortest one, we have been able to think of so far (Placed here by request)
We as humans communicate mostly via conventions. In other words, we decide what a word means by what we, as a culture want it to mean, then fix the term as a convention via a dictionary
or other means so we can express what we want to each other and be understood. It’s a group process more or less but based on what we want expressions, words, concepts and taxonomy to mean.
Dialectics is the imposition of meaning on existing terms for a political outcome which is destructive to what we all consider meaning. It is a complete hijacking of Meaning.
This also applies to taxonomy. The most underrated aspect of epistemology. Of how we see ourselves. Of how we understand the world, via categories. Via labels.
Dialectical taxonomy is what forces us to change everything we think about sexuality and accept political sexuality such as the Trans-movement.
Or somehow convincing everyone that the German National Socialist Worker’s Party is somehow “far right wing”, which may be the most masterful dialectical con of the 20th century.
This deserves a proper essay. But I just want to get the thought out there.
Imposing, forcing meaning on us. Changing terms to mean what a group of tyrants what us to think they mean as opposed to what they do mean and more or less always have meant.
Making words mean something other than what we meant them to mean, then banning or criminalizing them because of their imputed meaning, even though they were good, useful terms that helped hold our culture together.
Attacking us for using perfectly good words with important meani

To complement the excellent Greenfield article below I offer this excellent interview with a retired American General.
I would not think for one moment to juxtapose anything with Greenfield’s brilliant clarity by an offering any less clear and any less brilliant.
For me, this interview is the best of the year. It comes to us at a time when it is difficult to imagine that chaos can become greater than it is right now.
So many times I listen intently to smart voices only to be disappointed because the speaker, in the end, was missing a vital key, or two, to the necessary understandings shared by readers of this site. Not this time.
Just when I thought I was about to be disappointed this military man pulls out the very key that was on the tip of my tongue.
In short, it is about the strength of individual autonomy, the American Constitution, and the willingness to find the courage to fight back against tyrannical government.
The United States will not lose its way with such voices in the crowd:
