Freedom of the mind requires not only, or not even especially, the absence of legal constraints but the presence of alternative thoughts. The most successful tyranny is not the one that uses force to assure uniformity, but the one that removes awareness of other possibilities.Alan Bloom; The Closing of the American Mind

Are you...

• Frustrated with the liberal-progressive dominance of the mainstream media?
• Tired of pandering politicians who prefer talking-points to meaningful debate?
• Fed up with political correctness that limits free speech and penalizes commonsense?

If you answered yes to any of these questions you’ve come to the right place.

I’m Joseph Ben-Ami, a long-time conservative writer, commentator and organizer/activist.

Here you'll find a collection of my columns and essays, as well as access to my podcast, providing a thoughtful analysis of issues and events from a genuine, sensible, conservative point of view. My goal is to break free from mindless partisan rhetoric and promote conservatism and conservative ideas on their own merit.
