I want every single one of you to go out and vote with your minds and your hearts. Vote for your candidates on your own terms.

The US Two-Party System Made Donald Trump’s Fascist Campaign Possible – G. Stolyarov II
It is disconcerting to watch as the front-runner for the 2016 Republican Presidential nomination in the United States espouses a genuinely fascistic agenda – not just from in terms of protectionism, economic nationalism, militarism, and the desire to centrally plan economic greatness – but also in terms the overtly uglier sides of historical fascism: the xenophobia, racism, advocacy of torture and blood guilt, desire to silence political opponents, and incitements to violence against protesters and dissenters. Yet this is precisely what Donald Trump has done, unleashing the long-dormant worst tendencies of American politics.

Ukraine’s “Territorial Integrity” is Not Worth a Single Human Life
Author: Gennady Stolyarov II “Who likes it when a nation shoots at its own people? We weren’t against being part of Ukraine, but after the latest events, we’ve changed our minds.” ~ Natalia Vasilieva, Retiree in Donetsk, Quoted by the Wall Street Journal On May 11, 2014, residents of the Donetsk and Luhansk regions voted in favor of independence from Ukraine.

Putting Innovation to a Vote? Majoritarian Processes versus Open Playing Fields
Author: Gennady Stolyarov II Originally Published Putting innovation to a vote is never a good idea. Consider the breakthroughs that have improved our lives the most during the 20th and early 21st centuries. Did anyone vote for or ordain the creation of desktop PCs, the Internet, smartphones, or tablet computers? No: that plethora of technological treasures was made available by individuals who perceived possibilities unknown to the majority, and who devoted their time, energy, and resources toward making those possibilities real. The electronic technologies which were unavailable to even the richest, most powerful men of the early 20th century now open up hitherto unimaginable possibilities even to children of poor…
