Building bridges

November 27th, 2019 No comments

Well, there is a bit of a conflict within the Democratic Party, as the middleman (I have a good name in both camps), please let me give you a perspective that might serve as a bridge between the new radical ideological perspective, and that of Obamanism. First of all, in the original theoretical socialist perspective, […]

The humbleness of Democracy

November 25th, 2019 No comments

There is a challenge in the Democratic Party in these days. We try to find a way to move forward in a political climate that is, honestly, poisonous. Can we, is there any way, that we can be inspired by the ancients in this regard. Well, there are one or two wise men, that could […]

Made in America

November 21st, 2019 No comments

A lot of the ideas, that Barack and I had, have now become a integral part of the Democratic Party. Let me explain. First of all, economics. Barack and I criticized the movement of jobs from America to overseas, especially to China. This took jobs from a lot of hard working Americans, and left them […]

We are ok

November 20th, 2019 No comments

Mr. Obama has delivered quite a blistering criticism of the current development of the Democratic Party. It is going away in a very left wing conspiracy or direction. It is as though that mr. Trump forces us to be desperate. We do things in terms of politics, that we would normally not do. Well, perhaps […]

Well done Boris

November 18th, 2019 No comments

I just want to deliver a rare praise of a politician. I have been the supporter of many, many politicians over the last 15 years, in Great Britain, it has been mr. Cameron, mrs. May and now mr. Johnson. It is very rare with a politician of such a caliber as mr. Johnson. He is […]

The heroes of old

November 12th, 2019 No comments

Well done mr. Farage, the sacrifice that you did in relation to the election will go down into history, as one of the finest moments of UK democracy. Let me explain. In the olden times, before the Roman Empire, when the Canutes were ruling in the UK, there was this saying. The saying went: In […]

United we stand, divided we fall

November 8th, 2019 No comments

Listen Boris, I have been a commentator on A LOT of elections. I only lost one over the years, and that was the election where mr. Trump got elected. Even that election was a half win, since mr. Trump still is a reader here at Rubicon. The first mistake that is often done in elections, […]

No deal or deal?

November 7th, 2019 No comments

The election in the UK is really problematic. Specifically in the conservative camp, where mr. Farage and mr. Johnson are two combatants fighting over the issue of Brexit. They are both Brexiteers, but have two different takes on, what Brexit is. To mr. Farage it is no deal, to mr. Johnson it is deal made […]

The empire

October 31st, 2019 No comments

How do we understand the current election in the UK? Well, there is a classic parrallel, that might shed some light on the calamities and challenges of the UK. In the ancient time, there was an empire. But it was a very speciel empire in the sense, that it never really fought any wars, and […]

The Brasidas principle

I have been doing my own things here in Denmark for the last 1 1/2 year. Mainly trying to make a living that is not tied to work that will eventually slowly grind my body into a lot of malfunctioning parts. That is what happens when you have to work manually, and hard work at […]

What makes the US great to me

October 27th, 2019 No comments

This whole discussion about the Kurds really have made me think about what the US is. To me, as a philosopher, the US is the realization of my own ideals. I am a Democratic\humanistic philosopher from a Protestant country. So what I am trying to realize in the world is the same as what the […]

You know, you say, that in order to know a man, look at his friends. Are his friends good or bad. There is a truth to this. You hang out with the ones who looks most like yourself. Like me, I am seriously proud of all the Jews I am able to call friends. Because […]

The American revolution is a revolution. But what is a revolution? A revolution is an extremely idealistic fight for a better world. An energy so high powered, that it can truly Change the world. That is a revolution. The thing is, that to do a revolution, you need to have something better to strive for. […]

Democracy!

October 22nd, 2019 No comments

There is a deep solidarity with the Kurds, not only in Israel, but also generally in Congress and in the Liberal Party. This is what it is all about. A solidarity with a people who are threatened by an evil empire. This is an independent, democratically minded people, who are a stalwart defender of their […]

The US is a dream

October 21st, 2019 No comments

The US seems more fractured than ever. Right and left are fighting over meaningless issues just to harm each other. The Ukraine debacle being one of these issues. Let me be clear about my stance. I stand with the US. Not with ideas that are not good for anyone, or persons who are just plain […]

The shift of policy

October 17th, 2019 No comments

The world is shifting on its hinges, but is has been a long time coming. Essentially there is a shift in power wrangling in the world. Where in the old times we had a fight between east and west, that is Russia and the US. Today the US has left its competition with Russia, and […]

I have some good news for the readers of this blog. After a long hike jobwise, I have finallye managed to get a job that fits the blogging, more or less. I have had a minor job on a college, that did not really work out. After that, I have worked extensively on a small […]

Let us support the Kurds

October 13th, 2019 No comments

You know, Barack and I started the war against IS, and the best ally, apart from Israel in the fight against this terrible foe were the Kurds. An ancient people of the Middle East, who really helped us a lot. Now they are in harms way. To be fair, I know that not all that […]

The difficulty of balance

October 10th, 2019 No comments

Joe, listen. In order to win an election, you need to address the needs of your voter. Roughly there are two main voter groups in your constituency. They are the workers, and they are the liberal. The workers have currently abandoned the Socialdemocratic cause because the migrants in the different countries have put so much […]

Stay strong Joe

October 3rd, 2019 No comments

Dear Joe Biden, there are a lot of things going on the Democratic Party that seems pretty desperate to me. Impeaching Trump for some call he did to Ukraine. Now don’t get me wrong, Trump obviously did something wrong, and should be made responsible for this. But my point is, you don’t win elections by […]

The weapon of openness

It seems to me, that the complete cover up of my person in public life seems to be at an end. Took them 15 years. 15 years of prison, not physical prison but prison where I could not get a job, I was censored by all off media and so and so forth.  Seen from […]

The face of evil

October 1st, 2019 No comments

To be a good person, you need to know what evil is.  I have a lot of experience with evil. Not just the base meaness of childish behavior, but evil on a societal scale.  We don’t really know it, but as a part of the mechanisms of culture, evil is embedded in the very fabric […]

Social justice

October 1st, 2019 No comments

Now one of the things that has been on the menu of socialism, is, and has always been the care of the weak.  Unfortunately, this ideology has lacked serious depth since Marx took over. Eliphas Levi was the original social justice ideologist, and Marx was much too squarish and without any life experience. Philosophy should […]

The will of the people

You know, the US and France usually tend to try and export Freedom of conscience, freedom of speech, freedom of each and every citizen. But how often do the leaders truly care about the people? I will give you an example from my own life, that kind of hit the nail for me. Some years […]

Democrats need to find themselves before the next election battle. This is a little core story, that might help you in this regard. A few years back one of my friends dad passed away in a funeral pyre on the ocean. He was one of those old hippies that built the free cities of Christiania […]

Soon there will be another election in the US. Let me clear about this. This will not be an all loose, or all win. We are actually faring quite well. Most of the ideas that Barack and I installed are still there, and it works. But, that does not mean, that we cannot be better […]

It has been a rough few weeks in British parliamentary discussion, it seems that compromise is very difficult to find. You know, compromise is difficult in an environment as the one in Westminster. Politicians are fighting all the time. But at the other hand, a compromise MUST be found. This is not a support to […]

Unity

September 3rd, 2019 No comments

Iamblichus should be a prime source regarding Platonic philosophy. He is a pupil of Plato, and should therefor be close to Plato in regards to his worldview. I have tried to discuss the principle of unity in regards to platonic philosophy. Plato does not discuss it much to my knowledge. But in fact Iamblichus do. […]

The soul of the Empire

August 27th, 2019 No comments

I read a lot of all kind of British litterature. Both the scientific books from Oxford and Cambridge, and a lot of the mystical tomes from the British underground. So in all humility, I believe, that I have a feeling about Great Britain that is more than just superficial. That is why I like Great […]

Well, that was a bit of a drama mr. Trump. First inviting yourself, then making a big blunder, and then retreating without that much of a grace.  What happened? Well, you just got acquainted with a bit of Danish culture.  Let me try and explain. Denmark is the vile, tough, primitive little brother of England.  […]

According to Iamblichus, the pupil of Plato, G-d is what is good. Then the next pertinent question is; what is good.  This question is a question that we often fail to put to ourselves, and often when we do, we just imitate the ethics that is around us. Leaving us prone to manipulation.  According to […]

The freedom of the Christians

There is a lot of discussion within the Christian community regarding the use of force. Can Christians use lethal force against an enemy?

Utopia

August 13th, 2019 No comments

My point yesterday, about the utopian nature of political philosophy is simply, that what we strive for, ideally is something better. I believe that the Ancient Greek and Egyptian had a better society than what we have today, especially the last 40 years things have gone the wrong way.  But they also had a lot […]

The relation between harmony and order

August 12th, 2019 No comments

Politics has found its most illustrious academic definition in between two leading philosophers of the world. That of Plato and that of Aristotle.  While Plato was the archidealist, the Pythagorean, Aristotle was the empirical taleteller of the current.  Inbetween these two towering set of ideas true success in politics lie.  I talked about needs as […]

The European elite is creating the perfect breeding ground for radicalism and potential revolutions.  Look at current mood around in many European countries. Greece, Italy, France.

There is a lot of discussion in the US right now concerning guns and gun control. Let me clear about how law works.  Law is something that you should feel in yourself. As Heraclitus mentions, it is the inner wall of the city. He claims that, you may breach the outer wall of a city, […]

When we talk about unity, there is a depth to that principle, that we should accept and discuss in order to really be able to make progress in this area.
