The disgraceful and shameful rhetoric coming from the anti-Trump left has been telling. Thankfully not many of my friends have participated in it, and that is appreciated. Keep it classy. But the vile, and hate, and violence I have seen geared towards not just pro-trump people, but white people, males – especially “straight white males”…

Voluntaryism – Don’t Tread On Anyone
If free people do nothing to fight for the freedom of everyone, then all will soon be enslaved. If those with even a modicum of freedom do not fight for every last inch they can gain back from the perilous grasp of tyranny, then tyranny will reign over all.
Do Anarchists Have Any Reason to Celebrate?
Watching the media squirm, spin, and do everything it could to prevent the image of Trump’s total annihilation of Hillary Clinton has been entertaining, if not sad, to say the least.

Indoctrination and Mind Control
