Mainstream journalists, inasmuch as they share the perspective which has come to dominate Western Culture, glory in its popularity among certain elites while having no idea of its inherent irrationality, no idea that it is a bias which any objective person would peremptorily dismiss with utter disdain. “Conservative” politicians who seem poised to assume power …

In an interview with the N.Y. Times in 2015, Justine Trudeau proudly declared the following: “There is no core identity, no mainstream in Canada, [we are] the first post-national state.” Whatever the Nation State may have been 1000 years ago, the philosophers of the European Enlightenment saw it as a pragmatic means of organizing the …
I have before me dozens of newspaper articles lamenting the vile cancer of “far right extremism” that is apparently metastasizing throughout the Western World. The victory of Geert Wilder’s “Party for Freedom” in the Netherlands’ recent parliamentary election, as well as England’s “Brexit” and developments in various other European nations, have predictably led to the …

In my last blog I gave a few examples of former members of the Left who had abandoned it as irrational, racist, and ironically illiberal in most every way. The common sense they exhibited in their transitions suggested there is a chance the Democratic West may not in fact commit cultural suicide in its mindless …
Did you know that “conservatives” Dave Rubin, Thomas Sowell, Condoleezza Rice and Amala Ekpunobi, all began on the political Left, only to reject it and become some of its staunchest critics?

Pointing out, for example, the militaristic, misogynistic, homophobic tendencies of Islam from its very inception, is in no way intended as an invitation to go …
On Wed., Nov. 8, NBC News hosted a debate in Miami amongst five Republicans seeking their party’s nomination in the next presidential election. Upon being mocked for his presence on Tik Tok, entrepreneur Vivek Ramaswamy, one of the participants, turned on Nikki Haley, former governor of South Carolina, pointing out that her daughter Rena was …

Julia Malott is a thoughtful, well educated transgender woman who has not allowed her identity as such to poison her vision of reality. She is in fact a wonderful example of the Mind’s ability to transcend the sort of circumstances which the neuroscientists cited in my last blog claim to be Deterministic. Her Sept. 23 …
An integral aspect of the Left’s Ethos is the belief that we do not have Free Will, that our beliefs and values are determined for us by factors beyond our control or understanding. Several recent books endorsing this hypothesis come to mind, including Francis Crick’s “The Astonishing Hypothesis” [1994], Sam Harris’ “The Moral Landscape” [2010] …
As reported by Sarah Arnold in an Oct. 29 article on Townhall’s website, ABC, NBC and CBS, which devoted approximately 9 hours of coverage to the Hamas assault on Israel between Oct. 7 and 22, spent not 1 second informing their viewers of the pro-Hamas sentiments of several Democratic members of the House of Representatives, …
