Moved to investigate the subject by Dave Rubin’s podcast of Mar. 20, I was surprised to discover that more than one “progressive” commentator over the last few years has flogged the absurd notion that putting cream or milk in one’s coffee is an act of White Supremacy. Abhijit lyer-Mitra is a respected Indian political analyst …

Grow Up Mr. Trump!
As I have said repeatedly, were I an American citizen I would have voted for Trump over the pathetic Joe Biden in 2016, this decision, as perhaps with most who voted for him, based not upon any degree of admiration for the man but upon a preference for his policies. Trump has recently taken to …
A Brief History of Western Misogyny
The dominant narrative of our day, perverted by the disdain for historical context typical of the Left, sees Western Man’s treatment of Women throughout the ages as an abomination. Yes, the Women of Ancient Athens were generally confined to their households as wives and mothers. But given the seemingly obvious dictates of Nature and the …
“Empowerment”
I have dozens of newspaper/magazine articles before me by Leftists championing the Empowerment of the Poor, of Women, of Blacks, of every demographic in the West deemed to be oppressed. But the exercise of Power without Intelligence, Moral Integrity or indeed any concern for what is True and Right, is a recipe for a world …
I guess Ignorance truly is Bliss!
On Jan. 18, my local newspaper, The Hamilton Spectator, published an opinion piece by a social worker named Tyler Firth entitled: “Dear populists: Time to give us our word back.” Not a brief letter to the editor, it was more than 10 paragraphs in length and clearly deemed of some significance by the paper’s editors. …
The Leftist Mind on Parade
On Feb. 13, Democratic South Dakota Representative Erin Healy tweeted: “Extremist group Family Heritage Alliance said this morning that the safest place for kids are in families that have a married mom and dad. What a dangerous and un-American belief.” For the Left, apparently, the traditional nuclear family is now a radical right wing institution! …
We Have a Fool for a Prime Minister.
On Feb. 22, The Blaze posted an article on a home invasion in Milton, Ont., Canada, in which 5 intruders, at least one of whom was armed, had broken into the residence of Ali Mian at 5 A.M. a few days earlier. Ali is a legally licensed gun owner who, when he saw his mother …
Cultural Achievement is a Cancer to the Left
Demonstrable disparities in our species’ levels of intelligence, moral integrity and achievement are anathema to those on the Left whose fundamental value of “inclusiveness” is rooted in the egalitarian delusion that we are all really the same. The acknowledgment that some civilizations categorically outperformed others in most every realm of human endeavor is now deemed …

Hatred parading as Impartial Commentary!
Fred Youngs is a former executive at CBC News, Canada’s government sponsored TV network which pretends to be devoted to the Truth while being little more than a vehicle of Leftist propaganda. The Jan. 20 edition of my local newspaper, The Hamilton Spectator, featured a piece by him entitled “Poilievre’s far-right flirtations continue.” Pierre Poilievre, …
The terms “Left” and “Right” are misleading!
I recently re-watched Bill Maher’s Sept. 17, 2022 edition of his show Real Time in which he discussed the absurdity of “presentism.” Citing James Sweet’s article in “Perspectives on History” in which the latter refers to Lynn Hunt’s use of the term 20 years earlier, Maher defines “presentism” as the arrogant insistence of the contemporary …
