Political alliances are often explained through shared values, common interests, or a vision of the future. But what happens when none of those explanations seems entirely sufficient? Across contemporary Western politics, movements with very different beliefs have increasingly found themselves rallying around the same international cause.
Their differences are not trivial, and the question of what connects them deserves more than a superficial answer.
In my latest video, I explore this strange convergence and ask what it reveals about the direction of modern political life.

Why Incels are a Threat to World Peace
It is an interesting twist socially in a society where both genders are finding it more and more difficult to find romance and partnership. Be that as it may, what is striking is that incels as they are referred to are now seen as lurking in the dark corners of the web. That they are dangerous and so called "experts" (what ever that means in our totally dysfunctional society) fear rising global ‘incel’ culture could provoke terrorism.
And they may be right. Moreover, if things do not change and incel culture continues to grow, it could cause low intensity conflicts throughout the West and it has nothing to do with dating apps and is a lot more probable than one would think.
As always, thanks so very much for your support. It means more than you can know

The Impossible Alliance
Democracy Believers Were Wrong
The costs of a changing society are not always captured by conventional economic measures. Consider the time spent verifying agreements, the additional precautions people take, or the growing importance of personal networks when confidence in impersonal institutions declines. Each may seem insignificant in isolation. Together, they can affect how people work, cooperate, and plan for the future.
My new video explores the hidden importance of social trust and why its deterioration can change the experience of everyday life.

She Voted for This
A few seconds of footage can become a political Rorschach test. Some viewers see regret; others see hypocrisy, confusion or a convenient symbol for everything they already believe. But how much can we really know about a stranger from a brief expression? The more interesting question is why millions of people are so eager to assign that expression a meaning. The video looks beyond the immediate spectacle to examine the assumptions that make this kind of meme so powerful.
