Had a depressing conversation last night with a long-time acquaintance who declared that since he had concluded Justin Trudeau was a simpleton, he had no viable option in any upcoming Canadian election. Why not vote Conservative, I asked him. But “conservatives” are all a bunch of intolerant/racist/misogynist a-holes, he answered. Inasmuch as we had never …

Lies and Hypocrisy from the “Moral High Ground”!
On Wed., April 6, at a “disinformation” conference held at the U. of Chicago, Leftist reporter Anne Applebaum of The Atlantic, when asked by a student why her publication had, in the weeks leading up to the 2020 election, failed to pursue the Hunter Biden laptop story, answered as follows: “My problem with Hunter Biden’s …

Transgender Fascism
Candace Malcolm’s True North recently published an article on the efforts of transgender activists in Ontario to have their agenda installed as a regular feature of the province’s educational curricula. At a recent Toronto District School Board meeting, advocates told officials that students should be allowed to use whichever washroom best suited their gender identity …
The Cancer of “Whiteness”!
The Blaze today published an article on the decision of First United Church in Oak Park, Illinois, to banish any traces of Whiteness from its Lenten services. Its website was succinct: “Lent 2022: Fasting From Whiteness.” In the forty days in question, apparently, the church will draw exclusively on the traditions of African and Indigenous …
Really? Must We Swallow this B.S. in Silence?
Eisa Nefertari Ulen is a journalist, author, and Professor of African literature at New York’s Hunter College. In a recent podcast Dinesh D’Souza expressed his reluctance to even comment on Will Smith’s notorious slap, yet said he felt compelled to do so by the absurdity of the spin put on that incident by Prof. Ulen …

Are They Your Kids or the States’?
Ron Desantis’ House Bill 1557 would ban any discussion of gender politics from kindergarten to grade 3 in Florida’s schools. Called The Parents’ Rights and Education Bill, it assumes discussions of gender identity to be totally inappropriate when dealing with kids 5 to 8, while at the same time including stipulations that schools inform parents …
N.Y. Times, Feb. 26: B.S. As Usual!
The International Section of the N.Y. Times of Feb. 26/7, included an article by Black commentator Jamelle Bouie entitled “You Just Can’t Tell the Truth About America Anymore.” Given that I see evidence everywhere of Big Tech and Big Gov. stifling the free speech of anyone not in lock-step with Leftist Ideology, I was intrigued …
Critical Race Theory, etc., is HATE SPEECH!
Attempts in various jurisdictions to have Critical Race Theory removed from educational curricula have of course been denounced by the religious Left as an attempt to stifle the truth. But C.R.T. is anti-Caucasian propaganda that both ignores the irrefutable facts of history and, in typical Neo-Marxist fashion, simplistically reduces everything to issues of power in …

Right Wing Collectivism ???
I have not read Jeffrey Tucker’s 2017 book “Right Wing Collectivism: The Other Threat to Liberty.” But I have read extensively about it and watched him articulate his ideas in a number of videos. One I should like to focus on was a lengthy interview conducted by Dave Rubin in 2018 and still available online. …
Culture Matters! Values Count!
The Postmodern philosophy endorsed by most contemporary “intellectuals” asserts that we are all locked in our subjective prisons, that everything is a matter of opinion, that no one set of principles or values is superior to any other. It is a lie that leads naturally to the myth of Systemic Racism, the notion that the …
