Comments Off on 946 – Culture shift—in high gear | with Rasheed Muhammad
Jan072026
The incredible speed with which cultures change and how that change has manifested itself in the zeitgeist of 2026 is the predominant theme of Robert Vaughan’s discussion with Rasheed Muhammad, host of the Red Pill Diaries. On this count, Robert laments that the positive conditions long associated with Western culture may never return.
In a political world that has increasingly embraced the dystopian ideology of Karl Marx and the evils of collectivism, conditions are ripe for “gangsters, psychopaths, sociopaths, thugs” and various corrupt interests to take control of the populace.
“Today begins a new era,” announced New York mayor Zohran Mamdani during his January 1 inauguration speech. “We will replace the frigidity of rugged individualism with the warmth of collectivism.Continue reading »
Comments Off on 945 – Tabula Rasa—a blank slate for a new year?
Dec312025
Just as a newborn child comes into this world in a state of tabula rasa, so too are all individuals in a similar state when it comes to what political and social events will transpire in 2026.
In addition to defining ‘tabula rasa’ as “the mind before it receives the impressions gained from experience,” the American Heritage Dictionary also defines the term as “a need or an opportunity to start from the beginning.”
In the spirit of making a New Year’s resolution, this might be a good time to consider starting the new year afresh with a blank slate that first acknowledges the true political polarity of Left and Right, before attempting to form alliances among those who use these labels in ways that confuse.
As the old saying goes: “Ain’t so much what people don’t know that gets them into trouble; it’s what they do know that just ain’t so.”
This speaks to a truth about both humanity’s strength and weakness when it comes to acquiring valid knowledge. It is always possible to be wrong. And being Right requires an accurate epistemology. Continue reading »
Robert Vaughan was interviewed by Rasheed Muhammad on The Red Pill Diaries on December 26.
With a formal background in psychology and as a political commentator for Just Right Media, Robert delved into a range of topics. He began with an examination of the psychological mindset of Western leaders, whom he characterized as morally corrupt, psychopathic, or sociopathic figures influenced by subjectivist philosophies derived from Karl Marx, the Frankfurt School, post-structuralism, and contemporary woke ideology.
He contrasted this with an objective view of reality and critiqued the leaders’ lack of self-reflection, empathy, or willingness to admit errors, attributing their behavior to a pursuit of power and corruption.
Later in the discussion, topics included media manipulation and state funding in Canada, the intentional dumbing down of education systems leading to societal decline, and the role of blackmail, cliques, and the deep state in perpetuating detrimental policies, such as support for Ukraine and neoconservative foreign interventions.
The dialogue also addressed the rapid cultural and moral decay in the West, disappointments with figures like Donald Trump, the influence of bureaucracy on presidents, and America’s historical shift toward global hegemony contrary to its founding principles.
The discussion concluded with an analysis of the rise of the Global South, China’s economic and technological ascendancy, the end of unipolar U.S. dominance, and optimism for a multipolar world focused on individual peace and flourishing rather than enforced domination.
Comments Off on 944 – Religion is culture—religion is politics
Dec242025
“Those who say religion has nothing to do with politics do not know what religion is.”
With that statement, Mahatma Ghandi spoke to the reality that, effectively, religion ‘is’ politics.
The ‘religious forces’ behind much of the world’s social conditions – whether during times of peace or times of conflict – essentially frame the philosophy of a given culture, which in turn determines its zeitgeist of the time.
At a time of year when various religious celebrations are taking place, it cannot be ignored that in this season of peace on earth and good will towards men, Earth continues to be embroiled in conflict and war.
And as with political ideologies, religious beliefs can be identified in terms of a Left and Right polarity. In this context, the fundamental distinction concerns the contrast between a ‘culture of life’ on the Right (i.e., Christianity, Judaism) and the ‘death culture’ of the Left (i.e., Islam).
While religion clearly functions as a uniting force among its own adherents, it has also been a major divisive force whenever competing religions come into direct conflict. Whether in religion or politics, the values of Left and Right are incompatible and cannot co-exist.
Thus the path to a world in which there can be ‘peace on earth and good will towards men’ first requires an awareness of the polarized nature and relationship between culture, religion, and politics that is Just Right.

Comments Off on 943 – Intrinsically subjective—objectively speaking
Dec172025
“The belief that truth is purely subjective is a far greater threat than any other because that will strike at the core of our reasoning, and ultimately to our ability to choose between right and wrong,” asserted American politician and social media influencer Nick Freitas to a crowd of young Republicans at the University of California, Berkeley earlier this month. “I have never bought in to this truly ridiculous notion that truth is subjective.”
Subjectivism is the belief that reality is not a firm absolute, but something which can be altered by the consciousness of the perceiver. Objectivity is the only way to determine what is true, Freitas rightly argued. And on this point fellow Christians Matt Walsh and Tucker Carlson likewise asserted that objective truth exists and that we must agree that there ‘is’ a truth.
Unfortunately, when many Christians on the Right correctly assert that Truth can only be determined objectively, their definition of ‘objective’ is far from being so.Continue reading »
Comments Off on 942 – Color blinded—to racism’s color blind antidote
Dec102025
“Our country is at a tipping point,” recently warned U.S. president Donald Trump. “I don’t know if people mind me saying that, but we could go one way or the other – and we’re going to be going the wrong way if we keep taking garbage into our country. Ilhan Omar is garbage; her friends are garbage. They don’t go ‘let’s make this place great,’ they are people who do nothing but complain.”
One cannot help but notice how America’s immigration crisis is being debated and discussed in an increasingly aggressive and hostile manner, from America’s president right down to the average man on the street. Trump’s reference to an America flooded with ‘garbage’ people metaphorically reflects the reality of literal rivers of garbage associated with cultures whose people not only do not clean up their garbage, but live in it.
By equating criticism of other cultures with racism, the Left has effectively distracted everyone from the fact that ‘cultures’ are a product of human beliefs, actions and choices, whereas ‘race’ pertains to skin color and other physical characteristics not open to any moral or intellectual considerations. Most importantly, the Left has turned the racial divide into a false polarity, with people of white skin color on one side, and everyone else on the other. Continue reading »
Comments Off on 941 – Democratic dilemma: Is democracy just a fiction?
Dec032025
Democracy: Consent of the governed? Or government by consensus?
What most fail to realize is that these two views are incompatible. That’s because the principle of ‘consent’ rests on individual rights, while the principle of ‘consensus’ allows for the violation of individual rights.
These two very different concepts of ‘democracy’ have long been in conflict, resulting in a social condition that no longer seems ‘democratic.’ Consequently, many no longer feel that their governments represent them and they are actually questioning whether or not what most see as ‘democracy’ is a just a fiction.
One can argue that America is a constitutional republic and not a democracy, but this does not address the reality that it currently operates as neither, given its assumed mandate of protecting life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.
Many voices on the Right have gone into a panic mode trying to resolve the nation’s democratic dilemma by offering many valid observations and insights into the symptoms of the problem. Unfortunately, they have offered few viable solutions to a cure, owing to a fundamental misunderstanding of what has assumed to be ‘democracy’.
Democracy, like government itself, should be limited in terms of elections and voting; voting should never be allowed to violate or infringe on the individual rights of others – and thereby also on their ability to consent.
Under the principle of ‘majority rule,’ no such limits exist. That’s why understanding democracy in a way that is Just Right first requires abandoning the foolish notion of ‘majority rule’ as a justification for the violation of individual rights.
