The Foundationist Society has been mostly quiet in terms of online activities for about six months. In that time, we’ve been building out our technical infrastructure, making new contacts, and — most importantly — developing our ideas. In the next few months, we’ll be ramping up the tempo: adopting a more regular publishing schedule, working through our backlog of archived audio interviews (and recording new ones), updating our Twitter feed, and visually documenting (via Instagram) the ongoing buildout of our teaching facilities.
Since the Society’s inception, the fight for the soul of American civilization, and Western civilization more generally, has ebbed and flowed, with various pitched battles yielding mixed results. Some in government have finally woken up to the threats aimed at free speech and free inquiry from the heart of our education system. A handful of state legislatures have begun to take a stand against the excesses of transgender ideology. The radical Left has become more aggressive in pushing its ideas, but as a result, those ideas have been exposed to wider public scrutiny — and found wanting. Across the Atlantic, the globalists experienced a significant defeat with Britain’s long-delayed official exit from the European Union. “Social justice” ideology has taken hold over a widening swath of young Americans — but there are also signs of growing disillusionment with its soulless cruelty, its casual racism, its profound nihilism. The oligarchs of social media have stepped up their efforts to silence dissenting voices, but those voices are nonetheless growing more numerous — and more sophisticated.
At the Foundationist Society, we are still in the fight. We hope more of you will join our ongoing efforts in this battle of ideas. We hope you’ll add our voices and your efforts to ours as we strive to keep the sacred fires alight in the house we all share.
Stay tuned.
