Did you happen to catch Nick Cannon’s mid-July rant against the White races, people whom he says rob, steal and rape because they are melanin deficient, because they lack that “soul” or compassion typical of Black people which is in fact an inherent by-product of their color? While his Racist onslaught was given only cursory …

Down to Basics
A good many of the blogs thus far published have been intended to establish the general philosophical basis of “small c conservatism.” Let’s now get down to applying that philosophy to the realities of the contemporary world. Ralston Saul’s disparagement of Reason in favor of a Civilization governed by Sensibility and Compassion is typical of …
The “Tyranny”of Merit ?
The underlying theme of this Blog is that “progressives” are literally intent on removing every Civilized standard of Value from the human narrative save that of Compassion. The works of Susie Orbach and Naomi Wolf invoked in my last entry implied that the reverence for Female Beauty so integral to much of the Art and …
Catering to the Deluded
The psychological immaturity sanctioned/promoted by the Left, what Sartre would have deemed existential dysfunction, is no more evident than in the writings of some of the most revered of modern Feminists. In a 1978 work entitled “Fat is a Feminist Issue,” Susie Orbach invokes the notion of “thin privilege.” It is a notion of no …
The Truth as Hate Speech
My initial Blog was entitled “Mindless by Design” because the Left has literally eliminated the legitimacy of Ideas and Values from political discourse. In the entry entitled “The Devaluation of Truth” I cited a letter penned by B.L.M in 2017 in response to an incident at U.C.L.A. in which it claimed the very notion of …
Compassion or Stupidity?
In December of last year Ibrahim Bouaichi was indicted and ultimately jailed without bond in Alexandria, Virginia, for the violent rape of Karla Dominguez, a beautiful young Venezuelan woman apparently without family in the States. When Bouaichi’s lawyers argued that their client’s imprisonment left him unduly vulnerable to Corona 19, Judge Nolan Dawkins agreed to …
Sheer Ignorance
I have just viewed an image of a statue of Queen Victoria in Leeds, England, which had been defaced by members of BLM who had smeared the word “murderer” across the base of the monument. Did you know, my friends, that as early as 1772 an English court, while slavery was still considered business as …
Is There Something in our Water?
On July 28 the authorities in Minneapolis, its Democratically controlled City Council having voted to defund the police, issued a letter to the residents of that city’s Third Precinct advising them to simply turn over their wallets, cell phones, etc. when confronted by thugs seeking to rob them. As the Rule of Law could no …
Oh Ilhan!
In a video I came across on July 8, Minnesota’s Democratic Congresswoman Ilhan Omar makes it quite clear that her main concern is to “dismantle” the political/economic system of America, a system that prioritizes profit with no concern whatsoever for the intolerable gap between the rich and the poor. The desire to help the less …
Oh Oprah!
In a recent episode of “The Oprah Conversation,” the revered Ms. Winfrey goes on at some length with Black NFL player Emmanuel Acho on the subject of White Privilege, her main observation being that White people who prosper without appreciating the extent to which their Whiteness has been of benefit to them are, whether they …
