Talking with language models
ABSTRACT Large language models (LLMs) produce text that invites us to treat our interactions with them as conversations, and to treat them as intelligent interlocutors who remember, act, and make commitments. We argue that this conversational presupposition is mistaken. We introduce the artifactual stance, which describes human–AI interaction in terms of their design and affordances, rather than potential intentional attitudes.
Colonial Cartography and World Heritage Valuing in Takayna Country: A Reflection on the Use of the Simple Additive Weighted Method
1 Introduction Indigenous Peoples have been loving, caring, and protecting their country/homelands for millennia, in sovereign relationships with their sovereign bodies of country, distinct to those of Western settler conceptions of conservation valuing (Bawaka Country et al. 2019; Poelina 2023; Evans 2024).

Indiana seniors need Micah Beckwith's property tax plan Original
Republican lieutenant governor candidate Micah Beckwith's property tax relief plan is a good one and long overdue. I see a few letters from the "tax-and-spend" activists already opposing Beckwith's proposal. Seniors over 65 who have lived in Indiana for over a decade and our military veterans who served 10 years deserve tax relief. Ending property taxes for these two groups is a long overdue "thank you" and well warranted.

”There Is No Alternative”—Kirkpatrick On Von Hoffmeister’s ESOTERIC TRUMPISM | Articles
This is the introduction by James Kirkpatrick to the bookEsoteric Trumpism, by Constantin von Hoffmeister [Tweet him] available from Arktos Press, reprinted by permission. More than degeneracy, more than decline, the current epoch looked fated to be an Age of Exhaustion. The great danger is not that intellectuals and politicians have given in to hubris. The great danger is that they are right. It really is the End of History. This is just how it will be, forever.
Democrats’ War Against Young White Girls Makes This An Immigration Election | Articles
President Joe Biden has just put out a statement the much-publicized death of “non-binary” teenager Nex Benedict, who was originally alleged to have been beaten to death by bigots, but was revealed to have committed suicide. In memory of Nex, we must all recommit to our work to end discrimination and address the suicide crisis impacting too many nonbinary and transgender children.
Proposal and Rationale for a Cardioethics Curriculum:
Introduction Major technical advances focus cardiovascular discourse on what can be done for patients, often obscuring the equally important question of what should be done. While complex bioethical issues have been extensively addressed in critical care literature and practice, cardiology has just begun to scratch the surface.

In 2019, I wroteConservative Victory In UK Shows Path Forward For Trump's GOP, If They Have The Wit To See It The 2020 Trump campaign did not, in fact, have the wit (remember the Platinum Plan?) but as it turned out neither did the British Conservatives (also known as “Tories”—who date back to the 17th century and have been described as “the most successful political party in the world”).

See also: Trump’s Indictment—Like I Said, This Is A Communist Coup Can a movement win if it has the right tactics but the wrong target? The story of the American Conservative Movement after the Cold War suggests that it can’t. The American Right has chased tangential issues, acted as controlled opposition, and operated more like a business than a serious movement partially because it didn’t know what it was fighting.
VDARE Book Club: Richard Hanania and The Origins of Woke | Blog Posts
The ideological origins of what we now call wokeness are a common topic for conservative authors. Pat Buchanan’s The Death of the West is probably the most important for an entire generation, and I credit it with starting my political career. However, Richard Hanania’s book is valuable because it attacks the problem from a different angle—that of policy.

To defeat a radical movement, you will need radicals on your own side, even if you don’t agree with them. Christopher Rufo knows this, because his book America’s Cultural Revolution: How The Radical Left Conquered Everything, is essentially the history of such a process.

VDARE Book Club Up For July—Jack Cashill's UNTENABLE: The True Story of White Ethnic Flight from America's Cities During my time within Conservatism Inc., there were a number of honorable exceptions to the ”movement’s" usual pattern of marking time and making a living while America burns.

VDARE Book Club: Catching Up—Calhoun And A Gentle Introduction To Unqualified Reservations | Blog Posts
It's been a busy few months at VDARE.com with the summer conference (you can see my comments here) and some travel I've been doing (you can see what I had to say here). But there's some catching up to do with the VDARE.com Book Club. The selection for May was Calhoun: A Statesman For The 21st Century by Clyde Wilson and June was A Gentle Introduction To Unqualified Reservations by Mencius Moldburg, aka Curtis Yarvin. Expect all outstanding discussion questions to be sent to you early next week.

VDARE Book Club: Paul Kersey And James Kirkpatrick On 1620: A Critical Response to the 1619 Project | Blog Posts
VDARE Book Club members will be getting some extra content over the next month because of a delay—a now resolved personal issue I had to deal with. For now, I’d like to invite everyone to listen to Paul Kersey and myself discuss this month’s selection, Peter Wood’s 1620: A Critical Response to the 1619 Project. The book is necessary but not sufficient—typical of movement conservatism, even the best of it. Wood rather effortlessly dismantles the ridiculous historical claims about the 1619 project.
VDARE Book Club: 1620: A Critical Response to the 1619 Project | Blog Posts
This month in the VDARE Book Club, we'll be looking at a useful counter to the utterly disingenuous 1619 project. This is 1620: A Critical Response to the 1619 Project by Peter Wood. It's worth remembering how the 1619 Project actually started. It was pushed by The New York Times as the major Narrative Shift after the Russian Collusion Hoax collapsed. However, the creation may have spiraled beyond the control of those who pushed it.
The English-Speaking Peoples Have Fallen For A Negative Identity. But A Leader Could Rally Them | Articles
Earlier by James Kirkpatrick: Why Now? All The West’s Ruling Classes Are Suddenly Enabling Invasion Events across the Anglosphere through the past few years demonstrate an unfortunate truth: People who no longer have the positive mission of self-preservation and civilizational survival will turn on themselves to craft a false, negative, suicidal identity.
VDARE Book Club: Fiery But Mostly Peaceful: The 2020 Riots and the Gaslighting of America by Julio Rosas | Blog Posts
Occasionally, you live through an event that you know will be remembered in the history books. You know the media is lying about it. And as a result, you know history is lying about it too. There's something surreal about it because it's not a question of opinion or ideology. You see specific things that are happening, and the journos, quite consciously, say the opposite. The 2020 riots were an amazing example of this.

Leftist Reece Jones Is Right About Immigration…He Just Draws The Wrong Conclusions
In his White Borders: The History of Race and Immigration in the United States from Chinese Exclusion to the Border Wall, Reece Jones argues that American leaders restricted immigration throughout most of our history to protect the white, ethnic and racial majority. But, he says, that explicit white racial consciousness conflicted with Jeffersonian egalitarianism—an idea that Thomas Jefferson himself didn’t really accept.

Victory In Italy: Nationalists Triumph | Blog Posts
It's too early to say for sure what the new government will be in Italy. The right-wing coalition, while massively outperforming the left, does not have an outright majority. It's also a coalition of several parties, which is inherently unstable. Italian patriots have a right to be joyful, but let's not get too carried away. However, for now, bask in the panic of the journalists, for the nationalist right has won. That's quite a excitable tone from the once staid Grey Lady.
In Memory Of Colin Flaherty: “DON’T MAKE THE BLACK KIDS ANGRY”—The Post-American Mythos | Articles
See earlier: In Memoriam: Colin Flaherty—Cheerful Chronicler Of Black Crime by Peter Brimelow All polities rely on sacred myths that can’t be challenged without destroying the System. Colin Flaherty, who died prematurely this January, exposed post-America’s mythos in his 2015 book Don’t Make The Blacks Kids Angry: The Hoax of Black Victimization and How We Enable It. In his honor, I just discussed it, along with Paul Kersey, on the VDARE Book Club.

Earlier: Three States Sue To Stop Biden From Stopping Title 42 Expulsions At the same time that the Main Stream Media is berating Americans for not sufficiently rallying to the support of a nationalist regime in Ukraine, it is ignoring or even praising a move by the Biden Administration that essentially strips America of any ability to defend our own borders.
