March 2023:It is imperative that we pay attention to the resurgence of Neo-Nazi ideology not just due to its increasing normalization in certain conservative spaces in the U.S., but because it can once again infect all of Western civilization.

March 2023:International Relations theory has often upheld Realism as the best and most useful way to understand foreign affairs. In the aftermath of the messy 2010s and Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, perhaps this no longer holds weight.

January 2023:Everyone knows that chaos provides a void to be filled. It is high time that classical liberals fill that void once more and establish a new and more just order—yet this requires vanquishing the inequalities so valued by Neo-Marxism and alt-right politics.
