Recent revelations have illuminated a disconcerting reality: the narratives that have long underpinned the modern left are not the organic manifestations of grassroots movements, but rather, the carefully constructed illusions of a well-oiled propaganda infrastructure funded by billions of tax dollars, effectively making the public pay for smoke and mirrors. Everything has been a lie….

Why C-Suite Wages Are So High
It is a strange thing that in an age of unprecedented prosperity, resentment against those who oversee it has never been greater. The corporate executive, particularly the CEO, is today a creature of suspicion—accused of incompetence, greed, and worst of all, unjustified wealth. It is a familiar charge, made with increasing fervor by those who…
CEOs are Cheap
They found him standing by the glass doors before dawn, the thin hue of the city’s lights behind him. He was a tall man, shoulders bent by relentless hours. The tie around his neck might as well have been a tourniquet. Across the hotel lobby, a few bleary-eyed travelers caught a glimpse of his figure…
Achieving Super Gender
In coping with modern existence, many young adults find themselves ensnared by doubt, confusion, and a pervasive sense of aimlessness. The transition into adulthood, once a heralded journey of self-discovery and accomplishment, has become fraught with uncertainty. Yet, there lies a path that not only dispels this fog of despondency but also instills confidence, purpose,…
Digital Potemkin Villages
There is something almost charming about the audacity of illusion. Throughout history, we’ve seen leaders, regimes, and movements craft entire realities out of thin air to bolster their strength or conceal their weaknesses. In the modern age, however, this art of illusion has reached unprecedented sophistication. The Democrats, with their unerring knack for performative politics,…
Artificial Foods
Let’s talk about food. Not the romanticized, farm-to-table idealism or the soul-soothing street food of a back alley in Bangkok, but the cold, processed reality of what lines the shelves of American grocery stores. The fluorescent-lit aisles are a neon jungle of bright colors, bold fonts, and promises of “great taste!”—a cacophony of marketing so…
Island restaurants
Island restaurants are absurd. There’s no other way to put it. You land in paradise, surrounded by shimmering water teeming with life, and what do they serve you? Alaskan king crab, farmed salmon that tastes like wet cardboard, and shrimp from Thailand—a globalized culinary catastrophe brought to you by frozen cargo. Somehow, they think that…
Resentment and Cruelty
Modern leftism, much like the communism of old, often presents itself not merely as a political movement but as a kind of secular religion. Its dogmas are professed with the fervor of the deeply devout, and its heretics are persecuted with a zeal that rivals that of any inquisitor. However, beneath the surface of this…
Harnessing Antisemitism
The recent swell of student occupations and fervent pro-Hamas protests on university campuses across the United States presents a tableau both fascinating and deeply revealing. As October’s dark skies were lit not just by stars but by the blaze of rockets over Gaza, a schism has been carved deep into the heart of the American…
Woke AI
In this post-truth era, where the currency of fact has been debased by the inflationary pressures of ideology, artificial intelligence has become the most recent instrument in the elite’s arsenal for shaping reality. The digitization of reality has outpaced our capacity for comprehension and the guardians of the new digital orthodoxy have found an indispensable…
The Banality of Incompetence
In the modern tableau of global leadership, one might be tempted to ascribe to our leaders a certain malevolence, a deliberate intent to dismantle the structures they oversee. This analysis, while seductive in its dramatic flair, misses a far simpler and more disquieting truth. Our ruling class is not engaged in a conscious effort to…
Social Reality is Untruthful
In the theater of human interaction, there is a common foe that proves itself a relentless adversary: the lie. It is the unseen enemy that worms its way into the fabric of our communication, eroding the trust upon which human society is built. The habit of lying, despite its immediate gains, is a treacherous path…
