Hello my friends! As you know I have not been posting much as of late. But for that matter, I never posted much when I was posting most. I have recently started up on X, but honestly I may not have much to say. Just wanted to let you know I am there. I'm already… Continue reading Moving to X
Author: M.C. Atkins
I have six wee bairns who are all seventh-generation Henry County, Tennessee, and all from the same doe. It is the people of Henry County that I most want to reach but I am writing to Southerners generally. I am without credentials but rather dare to speak by the same authority as the little boy who cried 'The king has no clothes!' My core belief and starting point is that like everything, we humans have a nature, it is not so hard to understand, and to pretend that it is other than it is, is to jump off a cliff. Which is what we Americans have in fact done.
We the People have one job! Appoint good leaders.
Assuming your people are culturally sound and rational, if you have a good leader you can expect relative peace and security in stable times, and hope for survival in tumultuous times. And how exactly will a culturally sound and rational people expect their good leader to bring this about? By making and executing sound decisions… Continue reading We the People have one job! Appoint good leaders.
Elon, Billionaires, and the Common Man
Elon Musk is a force of nature. That rare man that possesses enormous ability and energy, who appears to grasp the great forces of his times, and who manages to gain the trust of the Common Man and harness his unstoppable power. Julius Caesar and Napoleon come to mind. Elon also appears to be inspiring… Continue reading Elon, Billionaires, and the Common Man
Trump, Zionism, and Endless Wars
I am making the following observations and predictions from the bleachers. While Trump's selection of ministers are overwhelmingly Zionists, I do not believe that Trump is, anymore than I would call him a man of great faith, though I imagine he has gotten some religion over the last eight years. Walking through the valley of… Continue reading Trump, Zionism, and Endless Wars
Why the Left so hates Trump
If you are largely conservative and support Trump, you have doubtless noticed that the left or progressives (whatever we mean by these terms) appear to truly hate the man. He has been described as evil, stupid, sinister, immoral, and corrupt. What you will not often hear from progressives beneath this din is a list of… Continue reading Why the Left so hates Trump
The Homeless and Our First Loyalties
Evidently we here in Paris, Tennessee have a homeless problem. Not on par with San Francisco of course, because the people of Paris and Henry County are rooted and cohesive, and enjoy competent and honest government. But a problem nonetheless and our local government is trying to address it. Indeed a problem that is now… Continue reading The Homeless and Our First Loyalties

Hello my friends! Ok, I have created a Patreon account where I have posted the first chapter of my book. The link is below. Per my previous post here I am going to post one chapter at a time, every once in awhile. I am seeking proofreaders who will help me improve it. So to… Continue reading My book, Patreon
My next book, maybe.
Greetings my friends! It has been some time since I have posted anything but I have a good excuse. I just didn't feel like it. Been doing other things. I confess a little blueness because the Earth kept spinning as though my little blog doesn't matter at all. You may recall that I am the… Continue reading My next book, maybe.
What is the South? What is Dixie?
What is the South? By South we mean neither a direction nor a place in relation to another place. The South has long since transcended the literal meaning of the word much like the Land of the Rising Sun is Japan, regardless of being east of China. The words South or Southern encompass a People, their land, and their ways. Just… Continue reading What is the South? What is Dixie?
