  • Who is Peter Thiel? by James Corbett

    Who is Peter Thiel? by James Corbett
    2024/11/10
    Deep dive into a 3-article series on Peter Thiel from the Corbett Report, a website that critiques global events and figures. The articles detail the life and career of Peter Thiel, a prominent Silicon Valley investor, entrepreneur, and political donor. The articles explore Thiel's rise to prominence through his founding of companies like PayPal and Palantir Technologies, his illegal acquisition of New Zealand citizenship, his political influence, and his support for life-extension technologies. The author argues that Thiel's claimed libertarianism is a façade, and that he is a member of the globalist deep state who leverages his power and wealth to further his own interests.

  • The Smithsonian’s new American Science: From Darwinian-based Aryanism to Modern Anthropology

    The Smithsonian’s new American Science: From Darwinian-based Aryanism to Modern Anthropology
    2024/10/08
    The article argues that the foundation of modern anthropology, particularly as developed in the United States, was heavily influenced by racist ideologies and served to justify colonialism and genocide. It traces the roots of these ideas back to the 19th century, focusing on the work of individuals like Albert Gallatin, Henry Rowe Schoolcraft, and Lewis Henry Morgan, who are accused of fabricating a "science" of human evolution to support the notion of racial hierarchy. The article further alleges that the Smithsonian Institution, through its Bureau of American Ethnology (BAE), played a significant role in promoting this flawed understanding of human development, which ultimately led to the suppression of evidence challenging their theories.

  • In Search of Monsters to Destroy: The Manufacturing of a Cold War by Cynthia Chung

    In Search of Monsters to Destroy: The Manufacturing of a Cold War by Cynthia Chung
    2024/10/02

    This Substack article argues that American Cold War nuclear strategy was not a rational response to Soviet aggression, but rather a self-fulfilling prophecy based on faulty assumptions and a distorted understanding of history. The author, Cynthia Chung, critiques the “systems analysis” approach of the RAND Corporation, a research group established after World War Two. She argues that RAND's reliance on mathematical models and “rational choice theory” led to a dangerous escalation of Cold War tensions, culminating in a near-nuclear war. The author further argues that RAND's embrace of this flawed approach was driven by a deep-seated American paranoia, fueled by the traumatic experience of Pearl Harbour, and a desire to maintain American global dominance. Ultimately, the article posits that the United States' obsession with "winning" at all costs, rather than engaging in genuine diplomacy, created a Cold War that threatened the world with nuclear annihilation.

  • Ireland 1845-1850 The Perfect Holocaust

    Ireland 1845-1850 The Perfect Holocaust
    2024/10/01
    The text presents a forceful argument that the Irish famine of 1845-1850 was not a natural disaster, but a deliberate and systematic genocide perpetrated by the British government. The author, Chris Fogarty, argues that the British government's policies, including the enforced removal of food from Ireland, led to mass starvation and death, with a significantly higher death toll than previously acknowledged. The text meticulously compiles historical evidence and sources, including primary sources, to support this assertion, disputing common narratives and highlighting the role of British landlords and officials in the famine. It seeks to expose the "perfect holocaust" as a crime deliberately hidden by the British government and subsequently by Irish institutions.

  • The Olive Branch by Mathew Carey

    The Olive Branch by Mathew Carey
    2024/09/29
    The provided text is an excerpt from "The Olive Branch," a political treatise written in 1815 by a politically-motivated author. This text delves into the political and economic tensions between the United States and Britain in the early 19th century, especially during the War of 1812. The author critiques the actions of both the American and British governments, highlighting issues like impressment, the Embargo Act, and the political divisions within the United States. He argues that the Federalists, who generally favoured Britain, misrepresented the situation to both the British and American publics, leading to an unnecessary war. Throughout the text, the author also expresses his concerns about potential unrest and even separation within the United States, driven by these political and economic tensions.

  • The Economic Policy That Made the Peace Of Westphalia

    The Economic Policy That Made the Peace Of Westphalia
    2024/09/29
    The article, "The Economic Policy That Made the Peace of Westphalia", discusses the economic and political policies of Cardinal Jules Mazarin and Jean-Baptiste Colbert in 17th-century France. The piece argues that their approach to economic development, centred on the principle of "the Advantage of the other", was crucial to ending the Thirty Years' War and establishing the era of sovereign nation-states. This principle, the article asserts, was based on the idea that each nation should strive for the mutual benefit of all, and that by promoting economic growth and infrastructure development, conflict could be minimized. The article specifically examines Colbert's reforms, including his establishment of protectionist measures for French manufacturing, his investment in infrastructure projects, and his creation of the Royal Academy of Sciences. The piece also provides a detailed account of Pierre-Paul Riquet's construction of the Languedoc Canal, which serves as an exemplar of Colbert's vision for economic development and the power of "the Advantage of the other" principle.

  • The cosmopolitan railway, compacting and fusing together all the world's continents by William Gilpin

    The cosmopolitan railway, compacting and fusing together all the world's continents by William Gilpin
    2024/09/29
    The text is a long excerpt from William Gilpin’s book “The Cosmopolitan Railway”, published in 1890. Gilpin, a former governor of Colorado, advocates for the construction of a transcontinental railway system that would connect North America, Alaska, Siberia, and eventually all continents. He examines the political, social, and economic implications of such a system, arguing that it would not only stimulate economic growth but also contribute to the unification and advancement of global civilization. In particular, he focuses on the potential for this railway to spur development in Siberia and Turkestan, areas he believes are rich in resources but hindered by poor infrastructure and isolation.
