Returning in 2026— The Chivalry Book Club January: Two Swords of Christ (Ibrahim) February: The Four Cardinal Virtues (Pieper) March: The Book of the Order of Chivalry (Lull) April: Ivanhoe (Scott) May: The Last Crusade (Carroll) June: Always With Honor (Wrangel) July: Idylls of the King (Tennyson) August: The Conquest of New Spain (Bernal Diaz) September: Beowulf October: The War in the Vendée (Hill) November: Religion and the Rise of Western Culture (Dawson) December: Sir Gawain and the Green Knight I'm aiming for a proper mix of history, literature, virtue ethics, and more, medieval and modern. The plan is to read the books and gather for Spaces at the end of the month to discuss. (Rumor has it that Raymond Ibrahim will be joining us at the end of January to talk his new book.) Some of these conversations might be open to all, but most will be for subscribers to the Chivalry Guild. We will also have more informal weekly Spaces for subscribers to discuss all things chivalric and chivalry-adjacent (virtue, vitality, history, politics, strategy, great men, etc). Sign up if interested and stay tuned!

Lord, please protect Alex Pereira from this garbage tomorrow night!
Here's a visual reminder that Ciryl Gane is the dirtiest fighter in the UFC and commits at least one foul per fight without a single point being taken. Hope Pereira has got his goggles and Thai steel cup ready 😭 #UFCWhiteHouse

Brought to you by the same studio that turned the great Sir Gawain into a diverse chump who gets waylaid by three teenagers on the road and eaten up by Lady Bertilak. She (correctly) calls him pathetic. At the end he just decides it's better to die. A24 destroys great stories.
Brace yourselves: garbage studio A24 found another male hero to desecrate. "The Death of Robin Hood" is a RADICAL DECONSTRUCTION whose marketing proudly informs us, “He was no hero.” Hugh Jackman plays an aged and solitary Robin, long abandoned by his Merry Men. He's in a SEVERE DEPRESSION having decided he wasn’t some noble outlaw robbing the rich to give to the poor - but actually a RUTHLESS MURDEROUS CRIMINAL. He wants to hang up his violent ways, but his old pal Little John drags him back for one last battle. He gets gravely injured and is tended to by a saintly nun who's treatment involves frequent painful AND GLORIFIED bloodletting sessions. He becomes a mentor to a troubled little girl, a vengeful one-eyed kid, and a soulful philosophical leper. So let's recap: The male hero is depressed and mortally wonded. Little John is a brutal, unrecognizable thug but at least in one piece. The young boy has lost an eye. The leper is losing skin and body parts. In other words, not one single male character escapes the script’s assault. And just in case you missed the point, the MALE HERO dies at the end. Typical A24 bullsht. The "A" stands for "ANTI-MALE" and "24" is short for 24/7/365. I’ll pass.

When you make empathy/openness the only virtue, you make a monster of it. You shut off judgment. You open yourself to anything and everything. The last 60 years have been a nightmare case study in this.

I get his points about the legacy news media part being propaganda.. but fail to understand how more empathy would ever be a bad thing?

And that's why these people don't/can't/won't conserve anything. They're overgrown children, refusing to face reality and preferring to live in Principle Land.
Right-liberals like those at National Review love to criticize the addiction to power. But there is also a converse phenomenon: addiction to the lack of power, and enjoyment of the lack of responsibility or accountability that comes with being powerless.

Good summation of the desperate dying gasps of the Spielbergian Boomer Narrative: "The message is clear. The alien—the stranger—is the good guy. Not only the good guy: the savior, better than us. Empathy/openness is the only virtue ... The desperation with which they hammer the propaganda is so strong that I hope people will be able to see through it."
Disclosure Day: The Last Boomer Propaganda Movie I went to see Spielberg’s Disclosure Day and found myself watching a strange, late-stage piece of boomer propaganda about aliens, media, religion, and who we are supposed to trust. Here are my thoughts on the symbolism of the film.

This book was literally already written. Charles Loyseau, A Treatise on Orders and Simple Dignities (1610). This book was written to justify the hierarchical order of early modern France and was very influential in the Old Regime. Chapter summaries on right picture.
Who is brave enough to write ‘The Feudalist Manifesto’?

It’s a movie where an Aryan kid restores his homeland, rejecting Gay Race Communist HR speak mandated by his black female boss on earth, and simply kills the leader of the forces occupying Eternia. All while wearing the cross of the Knights Templar.
I was originally disappointed that they didn't just do an orchestral version of the original theme but this goes so hard, I don't even care anymore. And we get the og at the end, so it's all good.

What to do with communist POWs in a civil war? The Wrangel method: "I ordered 370 of the Bolshevists to line up. They were all officers and noncommissioned officers, and I had them shot on the spot. Then I told the rest that they too deserved death, but that I had let those who misled them take responsibility for their treason, because I wanted to give them a chance to atone for their crime and prove their loyalty to their country. Weapons were distributed to them immediately, and two weeks later they went into the fighting-line and behaved with great courage. Later this battalion became one of the best in the whole Army, and covered itself with glory."

For years, hospitals kept Americans in the dark about the true cost of care. Families made medical decisions without knowing the price—and too often got hit with bills that drained their savings. That ends now. Under President Trump’s leadership, HHS is enforcing hospital price transparency with real consequences. @DrOzCMS and I have a simple message for hospitals: Post your actual prices. Come into compliance immediately—or face serious consequences.

This book is excellent and harrowing so far. Wrangel radiates manly excellence and trustworthiness, the kind of commander you'd gladly follow into war against bloodthirsty communists.

I unironically love this so much. 1000x better than all Star Wars and Marvel movies put together.

The cultural consciousness would improve if we stopped saying "pregnant" and went back to saying "with child". We need to retrain the collective subconscious through discourse that it is actually a child, your child, not a clinical condition.

Truth!
"But buying from local farmers is so expensive!" Six theses: 1) On the whole it is probably more expensive. 2) It also depends on all sorts of variables. If you're shopping at the farmers market in a fashionable urban area, you're going to be paying premiums for the experience. If you go to a more rustic farmers market, the prices drop considerably. 3) There are items that are less expensive at the farmers market. At present, Vital Farms "pasture-raised" eggs (a dubious claim, when you read about Vital Farms) sell at the local grocery store for $8.69/doz. I can buy actual pasture-raised eggs from several local farmers for $5/doz. One lady sells me 5 doz for $20. There are other deals to be found. 4) Most people have been trained to consider cost ONLY IN TERMS OF THE MONEY EXCHANGED AT CHECK-OUT. There are other costs to think about, sometimes not factored into the exchange price. For example: the livelihoods for local farmers and thus local vitality and resilience (especially useful during a crisis), proper care of the land (rather than blasting the soil with chemicals and exhausting it), the nutritional content of the food itself (which is related to the last point—the larger the scale of the operation, the lower the quality), and more. 5) Ultimately, you get what you pay for. Cheap food might not prove so cheap in the end. 6) Support your local farmers or else you love globalism.
