In a wonderful article in Canada’s National Post on May 7, Ari Blaff submits that it is actually hatred rather than compassion that fuels the politically woke. A former student at what used to be known as Ryerson University, he recalls how in 2017 that school’s Student’s Union fought to cancel what was scheduled as …

Oops! We Were just Kidding in 2020-21!
In an infamous Tweet of 2021, Michigan representative Rashida Tlaib, a member of the female Squad at least in part responsible for pushing Biden to the far Left, pleaded “no more policing,” suggesting not only that inasmuch as America’s police forces were “inherently racist” they should be radically reduced in size, but that convicted criminals …
Why the Woke hate Jordan Peterson
The ontological assumption informing Jordan Peterson’s “Twelve Rules for Life” is that we are intelligent beings capable of understanding both ourselves and the world around us. Implicit in this Enlightenment vision of Man is the notion that Objective Truth is to a large extent available to us, Reason being the vehicle to its apprehension. Succumbing …
Hate Speech: A Fascist Leftist Tool!
Tennessee Republican Marsha Blackburn recently informed her 150,000 Facebook followers that as far as she was concerned: “Biological men have no place in women’s sports.” This would seem to be a rational observation rooted not in hatred for transgenders but in sympathy for the millions of women whose careers might be jeopardized by a minority …
Mainstream News: Relentlessly Dishonest
In a wonderful video posted by Ben Shapiro on May 20, Michael Knowles discusses a compilation put together by Glen Greenwald exposing the many brazen lies told by MSNBC’s Nicole Wallace who, even as she lies, accuses the Right of being a shameless source of misinformation. As her statements were made on national television, they …
Propaganda in our Schools
Catholicism teaches that sex outside of marriage is a sin. While I was raised a Catholic, I have left it behind and certainly did not adhere to that tenet. But think of the outrage if Catholics insisted that their sexual mores be taught in public schools! No one is promoting intolerance for the LGBTQ community. …
Sieg Heil!
A couple of days ago Canadian “conservative” Andrew Lawton, who is affiliated with Candace Malcolm’s True North, described the lengths to which the World Economic Forum was willing to go to assure that only journalists of whom they approved could attend their annual meeting. Before announcing the dates of that event [May22-26], the WEF apparently …
Systemic Doublespeak
One of the main priorities of the contemporary Left is its staunch support of Women’s Rights. While I find its demands for statistical parity in various realms utterly absurd in that they simply ignore the verifiable differences between Men and Women, I am 100% behind the eradication of anything that arbitrarily limits females in their …
Name Calling vs. Rational Debate
The Left’s moral and intellectual bankruptcy is truly disgusting. I have before me hundreds of articles by so-called intellectuals which, while offering no rational justification for their moral outrage, simply denounce everyone on the political Right by assailing them with the same tired mantra of insulting epithets. Foremost among them, of course, is the term …
The Relentless Erosion of Western Standards
In an article of May 6 in the National Post, Sabrina Maddeaux discussed the recent decision of the Toronto District School Board to eliminate admission criteria based on the skills and accomplishments of applicants to various specialized schools and programs devoted to endeavors such as the Arts, Athletics, etc.. The board’s goal being “equitable” access …
