947 – Forcing a discussion—about force itself

Jan 142026

The extradition of Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro under President Donald Trump has unleashed a torrent of pundits on the Right passing moral judgement on the action. And once again, one might be led to conclude that their differing opinions are yet another symptom of the ‘fragmentation’ of the Right.

From Robert Barnes‘ “strict constitutionalist” conclusion that Trump’s action is an “unconstitutional illegal act,” to Glenn Beck‘s conclusion that “this is the most ‘America First’ thing I have ever seen,” it is understandable that many might interpret these contrasts as evidence of such ‘fragmentation,’ but it is not necessarily so.

For example, despite Beck’s joy over Trump’s America First action, he nevertheless acknowledges that the “strict constitutionalists are absolutely right.” And despite Barnes’ “strict constitutionalist” stance, he too acknowledges that an act can be “illegal and moral” or “legal and immoral” and applies the same standards to policies and laws.

Thus, the real differences of opinion (and seeming contradictions) originate within the context from which they are expressed (i.e., legal, moral, or pragmatic). But which is Right? 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.

943 – Intrinsically subjective—objectively speaking

Comments Off

Dec 172025

“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 »

931 – Turning Right—by awakening to the Left

Comments Off

Sep 242025

The Left is in a frenzy trying to associate the assassination of Charlie Kirk with the Right, an impossibility given the evidence. But facts and evidence have never mattered to those on the Left.

Finding himself in the middle of the frenzy, late-night show host Jimmy Kimmel was briefly suspended by ABC due to his political commentary (masquerading as comedy) claiming that Kirk was assassinated by the MAGA Right. Unfortunately for Kimmel, there was no evidence to justify this and a mountain of confirmed evidence pointing to the Left.

Attempting to portray the Left as the side against violence, many are now trying to talk ‘unity’ and walk back some of the hateful Leftist reactions to Kirk’s assassination, including Barack Hussein Obama.

In his recent fake condemnation of those who support the violence, he announced: “Let the record say that on both sides undoubtedly there are people who are extremists and who say things that are contrary to what I believe are America’s core values.” Continue reading »

930 – The Charlie Kirk turning point—from ballots to bullets

Comments Off

Sep 172025

Last week’s assassination of Charlie Kirk sent a shock wave across the world that exposed the political polarities of Left and Right on a scale never before experienced.

An American political activist on the Right, Kirk founded the conservative organization Turning Point USA and was its executive director until his untimely demise on the Utah Valley University campus on September 10.

While the tragedy of Charlie Kirk’s murder is its own horror story, a greater horror story has been the reaction of those on the Left who have celebrated his murder with calls for even more murders, including those of Kirk’s wife and children.

This has presented those on the Right with a moral dilemma: how to oppose the Left without having to resort to violence. Unlike the Right, the Left does not honor the ballot box; it worships the bullet. Continue reading »

927 – When objective isn’t—there’s Objectivism

Comments Off

Aug 272025

Sad to say, the vast majority of people do not take philosophy seriously, even though they are helplessly in its grip. It is understandable that with with all of the competing ideologies and perspectives on the nature and purpose of human life, philosophy is seen by many simply as another religion without the element of deity – a subjective secular belief system.

Enter philosopher-novelist Ayn Rand, whose philosophy of Objectivism has a name that specifically refutes the subjective, and who since having arrived on America’s philosophical frontier, established a reputation unlike that of any other philosopher. She self-identified as being on the Right, which she associated with freedom and capitalism.

But there are many others who self-identify as being on the Right, who completely reject Ayn Rand’s philosophy, not because of its principles which they rarely mention, but because of its messenger.

“Ayn Rand is a modernist atheist radical individualist; what about that is conservative?” asked the Daily Wire’s Michael Knowles on his April 4 podcast during which he ranked the greatest philosophers. Continue reading »

921 – The erotic side of human sexuality

Comments Off

Jul 162025

Recent studies and surveys concerning human sexual behavior are emerging with data possibly uncomfortable to some, while reassuring to others.

Some studies point to trends revealing that young people today are having less sex than those of previous generations. Additional statistics reveal that more people today than ever are regular consumers of pornography.

But the biggest surprise of all is that women have become a significant percentage of visitors to adult porn sites like PornHub, and that their arousal patterns are very different from that of men, in a way not commonly understood. Continue reading »
