Dark Philosophy

The Dark Path is considered Isaac Weishaupt's magnum opus; a result of many years delving into the recesses of occult dogma from the approach of open-minded rationalism. Isaac's journey started with an attempt to separate religion from conspiracy theories, but the agenda clearly showed a connection. The question to be considered is if the agenda of the Illuminati overlaps with the tenets of the occult and whether or not there is an evil influence at play.

How can we make intelligent decisions about our increasingly technology-driven lives if we don’t understand the difference between the myths of pseudoscience and the testable hypotheses of science?

A Silent War Is Happening. You're in It. This is not a book about politics. It's an intel briefing on a quiet, top-down coup unfolding in real time. For years, a radical, anti-democratic ideology known as the Dark Enlightenment brewed in obscure blogs and online forums. Its architects, a handful of disaffected tech geeks and philosophers, saw democracy not as a solution, but as a "corrupted operating system" in need of a "hard reboot". They weren't interested in winning votes or persuading the public. They wanted to "dismantle the state" and install themselves as "CEO-monarchs" of a new ...

John Taylor Gatto's Weapons of Mass Instruction focuses on mechanisms of traditional education which cripple imagination, discourage critical thinking, and create a false view of learning as a byproduct of rote-memorization drills. Gatto's earlier book, Dumbing Us Down, introduced the now-famous expression of the title into the common vernacular. Weapons of Mass Instruction adds another chilling metaphor to the brief against conventional schooling.

Control is a book about what geneticist Adam Rutherford calls “a defining idea of the twentieth century.” Inspired by Darwin’s ideas about evolution, eugenics arose in Victorian England as a theory for improving the British population, and quickly spread to America. With disarming wit and scientific precision, Rutherford explains why eugenics still figures prominently in the twenty-first century, despite its genocidal past. And he confronts insidious recurring questions, revealing the intellectual bankruptcy of the idea, and the scientific impossibility of its realization.

When viewed through the lens of modern psychology, they can even look like mental disorders.

Night Vision invites us to consider a different approach to life, one in which we stop feeling bad about feeling bad.

She was there to conduct research on the lack of resources and budget cuts that regularly face public schools.
