Epistemic Enclosure

Posted on March 26, 2019 by camelotkidd

Liberal intellectuals are going to have stop snickering at Fox News watching conservatives with the release of the Mueller Report. The term “epistemic closure” has been used to refer to the claim that political belief systems can be closed … Continue reading →

No Illusions

Posted on March 20, 2019 by camelotkidd

I’ve been getting a lot of pushback from liberal friends about my disdain for Democrats. “You’re helping Trump,” with your criticism of the blue team, they tell me. Let me be clear–I’ve come to despise the tribalism that passes … Continue reading →

PayGo

Posted on January 17, 2019 by camelotkidd

PayGo is bad economics and bad politics, but naturally it was the first order of business for the newly elected Democratic Speaker of the House–Nancy Pelosi. Despite resistance from progressive Democrats, the House rules package for the 116th Congress will … Continue reading →

A crisis of ideologies

Posted on January 10, 2019 by camelotkidd

I find it darkly amusing that neoliberalism and neoconservatism are losing legitimacy by the day, while political leaders and the corporate media warn of the disintegration of the “western-liberal-order.” That these two ruling ideologies are imploding says a lot … Continue reading →

Hard men with guns

Posted on January 3, 2019 by camelotkidd

President Trump announced recently that US troops would be leaving Syria, setting off a firestorm of criticism across the political spectrum and echoed by the corporate media. In the middle of this barrage of negative publicity it’s useful to examine … Continue reading →

The target audience

Posted on December 6, 2018 by camelotkidd

Lately I’ve come to the conclusion that the really good propaganda is aimed at a liberal audience, because conservatives already (generally) agree with the message being promulgated by the corporate-media, that of favoring the interests of capital over labor, a … Continue reading →

Better villains, please

Posted on November 30, 2018 by camelotkidd

If we’re going to be an evil empire, can’t we at least have more competent villains? Take former Secretary of State, and recent unsuccessful presidential candidate, Hillary Clinton. In an interview she bemoaned how the surge of immigrants to Europe … Continue reading →

Told You So

Posted on November 1, 2018 by camelotkidd

As Russia-gate staggers to the finish it’s becoming increasingly clear that what I warned about two years ago has come to pass. The narrative that our president is controlled by Putin has brought about a new and more dangerous … Continue reading →

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 →

Do you realize what you’ve done?

Posted on July 26, 2018 by camelotkidd

This obsession with Russia-gate among our liberal elites is absolutely bizarre. I lived through the later part of the Cold War, when President Reagan labeled the Soviet Union the “evil empire,” and I don’t recall this level of anti-Russian … Continue reading →
