Burn Down Capitalism? History Says You’ll Just Get a Bigger Tyrant.

by

Capitalism is broken, Washington is for sale, and America increasingly resembles an oligarchy with a customer loyalty program. But before we burn the whole system down, perhaps we should consult history. The French wanted liberty and got Napoleon. The Russians wanted equality and got Stalin. The Chinese wanted prosperity and got Mao. Every revolution promises to eliminate the ruling class, yet somehow produces another one with bigger boots and fewer restraints. Capitalism needs an overhaul, not a suicide pact. Because when you hit the economic reboot button, the new operating system might come preinstalled with a dictator—and no uninstall option.

Red-Green True Believers

by

Recent riots and looting in Paris, France made a young White woman the face of suicidal empathy for Western Civilization. The viral video of her telling the looters to stop stealing from her shop because that was not the “cause” and she voted for migrants, was on their side, etc. made her quizzical countenance the poster child for suicidal self-delusion about Islam and the 3rd World in the West.

When Cement Meets Jihad: How Lafarge Turned War Into a Business Model

by

From roughly 2012 to 2014, as Syrian Civil War turned northern Syria into a live-fire apocalypse, Lafarge made a calculated decision: stay open, stay profitable, and if that meant paying off armed groups—including ISIS and al-Nusra Front—then so be it. Business is business. Even if your business partners occasionally crucify people for sport. The company didn’t just stumble into this. Courts later described it as an organized system. Money moved. Deals were made. Raw materials, checkpoints, safe passage—all greased with cash. The same way you’d negotiate trucking contracts in Ohio, just with more AK-47s and fewer HR policies.

From Dionysus to the Edict: The Olympic Whiplash Nobody Planned
