Pop Cult Hipster

Shades of the Pop Cult

The "I f***ing love science!" crowd gets short shrift around here, but one of their favorite boutique mantras may have some truth behind it. Time does indeed seem like it must be subjective sometimes. Case in point: It's now been ten years since the consumer revolts of the 2010s promised…

No Participation Trophies

If you spent any length of time on social media this weekend, you couldn't escape seeing culture warrior Conservatives backsliding into the Pop Cult slop funnel en masse. Many of the same people who lamented the outrage marketing that turned Captain Marvel from a near-flop to a billion-dollar hit fell…

The Dragons Ride Again

It seems like forever ago that a ragtag bunch of newpub, Baen, and Castalia House authors dominated the first annual Dragon Awards. That day was an early career highlight, and I'm still thankful to my readers and supporters. What would become the current dissident scene was still taking shape back…

Friday's 6-3 ruling by SCOTUS - including 5 of the 6 Catholics - to uphold Mammon's place in the unofficial state pantheon gave defenders of usury cause to celebrate. Indeed, MAGApedes can rest easy knowing that tax dollars that might've been spent making fraud victims whole can now go toward…

Passing Peak Death Cult?

A series of reports from polling outfit Gallup indicate that the Death Cult's hold on the moral high ground is slipping. Most folks are polemicizing about the steep and sudden drop in support for sodomy. The Death Cultists in particular are throwing fits about it. And there's no doubt it's…

The adult content website Pornhub blocked access in Utah on Monday due to new state laws requiring websites with adult content to verify users' ages…

No Christendom Without Christ

I regret to inform you that the Big-brain Nietzsche Boys are shilling for apostasy again. That's nuPaganism apologists for you. The second their backs are turned to Christ, it's right back to the child sacrifice. And it's not just the BAPists who are trying the "How do you do, fellow…
Trump Arrest

Hypocracy

Loyal readers know I've said since Biden was installed that the regime would railroad Donald Trump to neutralize his candidacy through lawfare. This is just the most recent example. Yesterday, a High Party DA finally kept a promise the party had been making to its zealot contingent since 2016. Trump…

1940s Babies

Loyal readers of this blog know that I've been combating the prevalent Madison Avenue-concocted generational model for years, along with fellow authors David Stewart and JD Cowan. Much of our understanding of what, say a Zommer or a Millennial is comes from ad agencies who draw arbitrary lines between cohorts…

Promise Kept

The whole Elon Musk - Twitter saga elicited a lot of comment. From the beginning you had people saying it was all a grift or a publicity stunt. I said last year that Musk's purchase of Twitter would be completed in the fall, and it would take until early in…
