WARNING: Extreme Anti-Leftist Language; Mixing It Up On The Right Perspective

Communism, Donald Trump, Ilana Mercer, Left-Liberalism And Progressivisim, Paleolibertarianism

Broadcasting out of New York, Frank from Queens, John of Staten Island and George the Atheist are a SWAT team against left-liberalism. Yesterday, I returned to their show, The Right Perspective, this time to discuss The Trump Revolution. And OMG! I am not going to listen to this. They sent me some excerpts. Apparently I said these things:

“… the feral state of black culture… the social milieu..”
” … the golden goose at fox news, Megyn Kelly …
“The Left controls the ‘intellectual means of production”…
That, paraphrasing Milton, “The argument for socialism is instinctual … the argument for liberty is complex and conceptual …”
We inhabit a “post constitutional predominately progressive universe.”
Alluded to “the federal Frankenstein”…
Mentioned “testosterone and ‘Trump as the last manly man running,” etc.
Said that Father Pfleger represents the current state of Christianity in America .
[The boys thought the last comment was “right out of Rand saying that Joan of Arc led the French forces against the English because, as Rand state, the English men were wimps.”]
Finally, I said that “Hitler was almost cuddly” compared to the greatest killers in history, the communists—Mao, Stalin, etc.

Oh, mother. Tell me I didn’t.

Emasculated West Primed For a Muscular, Muslim Takeover

Feminism, Gender, Islam, Jihad, Paleolibertarianism, The West

“Emasculated West Primed For a Muscular, Muslim Takeover” is the new column, now on FrontPage Magazine. An excerpt:

Programed as they are in feminist myth-making, journalists, young and old, often ask incredulously, “Why would western girls travel to join ISIS fighters?” “ISIS men don’t believe in equality between the sexes.”

At heart, neither do women. Not when hormones rage.

Islamic State projects strength. Strength is an aphrodisiac. Women are biologically programmed to be attracted to powerful men. That’s one reason some girls willingly put on black nose bags and flock to become ISIS brides.

Brainwashed to think biology is incidental, and that men and women are essentially interchangeable; younger readers will likely find it harder to grasp something as primordial and important as the male-female biological category.

Sheikh Muhammad Ayed has no such problem. Speaking in a deep, sonorous voice; in what sounds like classical Arabic, this imam can be observed on YouTube delivering a sermon from East Jerusalem’s Al-Aqsa Mosque. The object of Sheikh Ayed’s coruscating derision is the emasculated West. It is primed for a muscular, Muslim takeover, he argues.

Said Ayed (as translated by The Middle East Media Research Institute):

But they have lost their fertility, so they look for fertility in their midst. We will give them fertility! We will breed children with them, because we shall conquer their countries—whether you like it or not, oh Germans, oh Americans, oh French, oh Italians, and all those like you. Take the refugees! We shall soon collect them in the name of the coming Caliphate. We will say to you: These are our sons. Send them, or we will send our armies to you.

On its side, Islam has ascetic evangelists such as Ayed, who bow to no one.

On our side we have Father Michael Pfleger! He’s the too-hideous-to-behold, standard issue, Western preacher-cum-Obama idolater.

Pray tell: Who looks and sounds more impressive to the young and the impressionable? The impassioned, unapologetic, manly imam in flowing, Lawrence-of-Arabia robes, who channels the Word of his Prophet? Or, Father Pfleger, the soft face of the West’s ultra-liberal faith; a tool of liberal public administration; a man more eager to prostrate himself to Caesar than to serve a higher authority?

Pfleger’s ilk—the West’s priesthood—are in the four corners of the earth preaching hate for their own kind. Thus, in a week in which fifteen blacks wielding Kalashnikovs killed two white farmers in KwaZulu-Natal; another excuse-for-a-man—man-of-the-cloth Michael Vorster—was at a South-African pulpit puling about “the controlling ways of whiteness.”…

… Read the rest. The complete column is “Emasculated West Primed For a Muscular, Muslim Takeover.”  It’s now on FrontPage Magazine.

I had a blast, 07-29-2016, with the talented Bill Meyer, discussing my new book, The Trump Revolution: The Donald’s Creative Destruction Deconstructed.

Easy Street For Bernie; For Trump It’s A Horribly Hard Row To Hoe

Democrats, Donald Trump, Intellectualism, Intelligence, Paleolibertarianism, Republicans

The Trump Revolution: The Donald’s Creative Destruction Deconstructed must be quite a good read. I’ve caught my husband red-handed with a copy and a big grin on his face (unusual—the grin, I mean—since he works for Microsoft).

And, of course, Jack Kerwick is mining The Donald’s Creative Destruction. Most reviewers seek confirmation of their worldview in a work. If they find an unknown quantity; the ego gets in the way of dealing. Kerwick is unusual in his intellectual curiosity, never afraid to joust with ideas, never threatened by them.

The dangers of being too open about Trump in conservative circles don’t deter him either. (Actually, some conservative websites are proving very competitive in the marketplace of ideas—their young millennial editors adapting to the new political landscape and embracing renegades far quicker than some libertarian sites. Kudos.)

In any case, in his latest TownHall column, Kerwick uses The Trump Revolution to drive home an important point I’ve not heard made before: “Bernie Sanders Is No Donald Trump.” To listen to the moron media, you’d think otherwise.

… For obvious reasons, this libertarian defense of the Trump process—the first of its kind—couldn’t be timelier. There is, however, another reason as to why it’s so critically important to read The Trump Revolution.

Contrary to conventional wisdom, Bernie Sanders is not the Democrats’ counterpart to Trump. This is among the many points that Mercer makes in her fine work. Consider the following:

The difference, though, is that Trump has exposed—and defeated—this corruption.

Sanders, in glaring contrast, has acquiesced in it, for he is now urging his supporters—who, by the sounds of it, are much more principled than he—into voting for Hillary Clinton.

Secondly, Sanders hardly accomplished what Trump has accomplished—and what Trump continues to accomplish. Sanders won 22 states in his contest against Clinton. But it was only a two person race, he had been a politician in the Senate for nearly a quarter of a century, had virtually nothing but good press, and his rallies weren’t repeatedly disrupted by violent thugs.

Trump, on the other hand, a business mogul and “reality TV star,” came out of nowhere. Derided and marginalized by “the experts,” this “clown” and “buffoon,” a million-to-one-shot underdog, slayed 16 of the GOP’s best and brightest, including some of its most popular senators and governors. These were the party’s rock stars—and Trump relegated them to the ranks of the Has Beens one after the other. …

Kerwick counts 7 major differences between what the brave-heart Trump has endured—Trump still has a horribly hard row to hoe ahead—as compared to Sanders’s easy street, and ends the column thus:

Bernie Sanders has had nothing like the bumpy road that Trump has had to travel. Ilana Mercer compares the two in her own inimical way: Sanders is “a mouse of a man” compared to the “masculine force at full tilt” that is Trump.

UPDATED (7/26): The Trump Revolution: The Donald’s Creative Destruction Deconstructed Reviewed

Constitution, Donald Trump, Ilana Mercer, libertarianism, Paleolibertarianism

Some worthies review “The Trump Revolution: The Donald’s Creative Destruction Deconstructed”:

“Trump indeed has proven to be a force of nature. Yet so too is Ilana Mercer. … The Trump Revolution [is] the first libertarian defense of the Trump Process. Mercer, being as much an enemy of neoconservative Republicans as she is of leftist Democrats, treats audiences of all political persuasions to a work that is above suspicion. The Trump Revolution is especially suited for libertarian and conservative-leaning Trump skeptics. Mercer, a paleolibertarian—i.e. a libertarian who doesn’t live in a pseudo-Platonic dream world of abstractions—is as concrete as can be within her opening statement, appropriately subtitled: ‘Welcome to the Post-Constitutional Jungle.’ As Mercer reminds us, in a post-Constitutional jungle, ‘a liberty-lover’s best hope is to see the legacy of the dictator who went before overturned for a period of time.’ Over the span of 252 pages, with an astuteness that escapes most contemporary popular writers whose partisanship binds them to stock phrases and crusty categories, Mercer reveals once more her originality as an analyst to ‘deconstruct’ how Trump has waged a campaign against sacred cows … ‘progressive’ and ‘conservative’ alike.—JACK KERWICK, Ph.D., ethicist, political philosopher, columnist at Townhall.com & FrontPage Magazine, author, The American Offensive: Dispatches from the Front.

***

“Mercer is no fan of Obama or The ‘W’ who came before him, but she thinks that ‘Trump is likely the best Americans can hope for.’ She’s ‘not necessarily for the policies of Trump, but for the process of Trump.’ This, in itself, is the most interesting of her arguments in a well-constructed book of essays that builds the case for that process. … [I]t is a testament to Mercer’s muscular writing and clever reasoning that I was able to read her book in a single sitting. That is a compliment in and of itself.—CHRIS MATTHEW SCIABARRA, Ph.D., author of Total Freedom: Toward A Dialectical Libertarianism and many more.

***

In ‘The Trump Revolution,’ Mercer gets at precisely what I would like people to understand relative to the Trump phenom. ‘Donald J. Trump is smashing an enmeshed political spoils system to bits,’ she writes, and indeed, this system and the necrotizing societal parasites who benefit from it deserve, in the moral sense, to be smashed, and must be neutralized … Perhaps it is the scary-smart Mercer’s status as a non-conservative ideologue, or as a non-native to America, that made her uniquely qualified to write this book.—ERIK RUSH, syndicated columnist, author of Negrophilia: From Slave Block to Pedestal-America’s Racial Obsession.

***

“The Trump Revolution offers a blistering attack on the pseudo-conservative credentials of Donald Trump’s ‘conservative’ opponents. In this pungently written study, paleolibertarian commentator Ilana Mercer stresses the close connection between the rise of the populist Right in the US and the clumsy behavior of neoconservative mediocrities.”—PAUL GOTTFRIED, retired professor of Humanities, Elizabethtown College, PA, author of After Liberalism, Multiculturalism and the Politics of Guilt, The Strange Death of Marxism, Leo Strauss and the Conservative Movement in America.

The Trump Revolution is still (July 26) #1 in Books in the ‘Anarchy’ category that follows from > Politics & Social Sciences > Politics & Government > Ideologies & Doctrines on Amazon. Well of course. Its central thesis is that, for liberty lovers this is it. We’ve reached the end of the road. The best we can hope for is for someone to smash the system; “action and counteraction, force and counterforce in the service of liberty …”
