Perhaps the two greatest economic misconceptions of the 21st century are: Both claims are not just misleading—they fundamentally distort how the global economy actually functions. The Tariff Illusion: Who Really Pays? The tariff argument is the easier of the two to understand. Tariffs are taxes on imports. In practice, the importer—the domestic company bringing goods […]

War Update: A Failed Strategy and a Shifting Balance of Power
The United States’ attempt to reshape the Middle East through military force and coercion has backfired.

Before the recent escalation, Iran was widely viewed as a regional power with significant influence in the Middle East, but […]
Economic Update: Uncertainty and Pain
The latest economic data paints a troubling picture for consumers and the broader economy. Inflation accelerated again while personal income declined, creating what is effectively the worst of both worlds for households already struggling with high costs.

Climate Change: Is It Too Late?
Well, no. It will never be too late. That is the part the ecofascists are depending on. The physics limits warming to roughly +9°C. At that level, much of the planet would be uninhabitable — oceans would rise dramatically, heat extremes would make large regions lethal to humans, freshwater scarcity would be widespread, and agricultural […]

Ecofascism, Eugenics, and the Apocalyptic Christian Zionist Agenda: Understanding the Drivers of Conflict in Iran and the Middle East
Ecofascist and Eugenics Ideologies At the heart of some modern extremist movements lies an unsettling convergence of ecofascist and eugenics ideologies. Ecofascist thought reframes environmental crises, particularly climate change, not as threats to human life to be mitigated, but as tools to enforce demographic reduction. In this worldview, mass mortality is considered a mechanism for […]
