Return to Sender

Posted on October 26, 2018 by camelotkidd

Crimes committed on the periphery of empire always return to the homeland. Always. Following this logic, perhaps the pipe bombs mailed to George Soros, Hillary Clinton, and Barak Obama are not from a Trump supporter like the media has … Continue reading →

The Gatekeepers

Posted on October 17, 2018 by camelotkidd

Après moi, le déluge

Posted on October 12, 2018 by camelotkidd

Last week, I neglected to mention one of the key drivers of American nihilism–elite impunity. As David Sirota recounts in a new article, since Enron, America has become an elite accountability free-zone. “Our society has been fundamentally altered by … Continue reading →

American Nihilism

Posted on October 4, 2018 by camelotkidd

Why are Americans so desperately unhappy? What’s up with the opioid addiction, the mass murders, the deaths of despair, and the deep cynicism, that I’ve come to call American nihilism? Maybe this is all because we’ve embraced economic policies that condemned millions … Continue reading →

Kayfabe

Posted on September 27, 2018 by camelotkidd

Ten Years After

Posted on September 20, 2018 by camelotkidd

Ten years ago the US stock market tanked, and for the next several weeks financial markets were a cluster-fuck of panic and chaos. Americans were frightened of what was happening in the economy. The real estate market had collapsed. Venerable Wall … Continue reading →

Quagmires

Posted on September 13, 2018 by camelotkidd

I still wonder if Trump would have carried out his promise of better relations with Russia and less interventionist foreign policies absent Russia-gate? I ask this question because a confluence of events in Syria is increasing the danger of war with … Continue reading →

Two Camps

Posted on September 7, 2018 by camelotkidd

There are two camps in America that hold completely different viewpoints. One camp, let’s call them the establishment, still believes that we live in a meritocracy, where if you get an education and work hard you can succeed in … Continue reading →
