Just watched a video of James O’Keefe reading from Orwell’s “1984” on the subject of “doublethink,” the audacious capacity of authoritarian regimes to support two totally contradictory views while nevertheless asserting the validity of each through the sheer exercise of their power. The Identity Politics that informs our “progressive” culture is rife with such absurdities. …

A Parody of a Professor!
A number of “conservative” pundits, including Candace Owens, have commented on the Sept. 21 screed of Brittney Cooper, a Black tenured professor of Women and Gender Studies at Rutgers University.

Systemic Stupidity!

Glenn Youngkin is Terry McAuliffe’s Republican opponent in the Virginia gubernatorial election. As his bus pulled into an event in Virginia Beach on Fri. the 29th, it was greeted by five individuals chanting their support while displaying all the characteristics of “white supremacists.” Indeed they carried the same Tiki torches so prevalent at the 2017 …

Why Would Anyone Listen to Kaepernick?
It has come to my attention that Colin Kaepernick has made a six part Netflix special entitled “Colin in Black and White” which highlights his tribulations as a Black man growing up in White America. In it a segment showing him at training camp trying to impress his NFL coaches suddenly morphs into a depiction …
