All of the online Right are rejoicing over the supposed death of “Woke 1.0.” Even parts of the Left are finally admitting the 2010s were complete insanity. We can answer “What is a woman?” again. Men aren’t forced into women’s sports. No more ze/zir pronouns or drag-queen story hours. But this is not a Right-wing victory. It’s actually a sign of the Right’s defeat. In this video I explain the real political force that killed Woke 1.0: the mass importation of third-world populations who are hostile to wokeness. As those demographics grow into decisive voting blocs, they are forcing the Left to abandon its 2010s cultural excesses while keeping open borders and welfare intact. The result is “Woke 2.0”. A quieter, more…

TakiMag Photo by Selcuk Acar/Anadolu via Getty Images A friend of mine, Hans-Hermann Hoppe, wrote a seminal book on democracy some time ago called Democracy: The God That Failed. It is revisionist in nature, and reaches the conclusion that monarchy is a lesser evil than democracy. After my take last week on the British monarchy, I might not be the right person to comment on his views, but I do have an excuse. I only mentioned the…Open
Everyone reading this has heard someone say, “Fake it until you make it.” That concept stems from the work of brilliant psychologists such as William James and Alfred Adler. The idea is that if you act AS IF you have traits like confidence or bravery long enough, you will start actually to embody them. This can be true. In fact, I’ve told people struggling to handle a situation to try to envision themselves acting like someone they admire in that situation. For example, if you’re a young conservative woman who admires Sydney Sweeney or Sophie Cunningham and you’re struggling to talk to people at a conference, try to behave like you imagine they would in the same situation. Suddenly you may find yourself chatting easily with…Open
Jonathan Haidt is a left-of-center social psychologist I’ve referenced a number of times before because he has done some amazing work on the moral differences between conservatives and liberals. Basically, Haidt would say that you can break morality down into six areas: 1) Care/Harm 2) Fairness/Cheating 3) Liberty/Oppression 4) Loyalty/Betrayal 5) Authority/Subversion 6) Sanctity/Degradation According to Haidt, the liberal sense of morality (ahem, such as it is) revolves around the first three areas in that list – care/harm, fairness/cheating, and liberty/oppression, while conservatives tend to weigh all six factors. Because conservatives get all six factors, while liberals only really care about three of them, this leads to…Open

Rep. Josh Gottheimer is telling his own party that the Democratic Socialists of America are trying to hijack the Democratic brand, and he wants them shown the door. The New Jersey Democrat, a leader of the moderate Blue Dog Coalition and a member of the House Intelligence Committee, went on Fox News Sunday to deliver a blunt message: DSA members are not Democrats, their values clash with the party's, and they should start their own organization instead of borrowing the Democratic label to push what he called a communist, anti-American, open-borders agenda. His remarks landed the same weekend the DSA held its Socialists Summit in Chicago, where convention footage captured members voicing support for the Communist Manifesto, Russian…Open
