Our Story
We are writers and commentators committed to free speech and open discourse. Our interests range widely, as do our educational backgrounds, but we are united by a willingness to engage controversial and neglected ideas. Our approach is factual, data-driven and respectful of others, even when discussing topics considered inflammatory or taboo. We hope to promulgate a classical liberal perspective of speech and push back against cultural and governmental shifts toward censorship.
We believe the free exploration of ideas is a wonderful and terrifying metaphysical adventure and is essential to understanding ourselves and the world in which we live. This ability to engage freely in thought and speech is a miracle produced by a confluence of historical circumstance, great sacrifice, bold ideas and significant bloodshed. It is in this rare and special tradition that we place our endeavor.
We also hope to have a little fun along the way.
Mission Statement
We champion free speech and fearless conversation. Bold and unapologetic, we stand for the preservation of European culture and heritage.
