Curtis Yarvin has been writing about the "deep right" for several years.

This idea is shocking to most Americans, but makes a lot of sense once you hear out his reasoning. F...

"The Family Sex Show" is a production that was going to be toured through the UK. The content of the show included full nudity and curiously intimate discussions about sex targeted to minors. Internet backlash caused the production company to cancel it. I was attracted to the hoopla, took a look at their website, and found some quite disturbing material.

That, combined with abuse at the hands of her father, has caused her to deeply look into the source of her traumas and take control of her body, her life, and her sense of agency.

Denise searched for information about teens suddenly identifying as the opposite sex, and found a dearth of information, so began 4thWaveNow to chronicle her findings. The trans phenomena has since gained major momentum, and last week the Biden administration declared full support—legal and executive—for the "affirmation only" model f...
