Rich people don’t grasp that they have a warped perspective on the world. Which is why, for instance, climate activists (who skew very heavily to the rich end of town — just look at the Teals, or the blazer-wearing private school luvvies “striking for climate”) just don’t get that
The Clown World meme swept the internet — or, as the left media would have it, “the intellectual dark web” — in recent years, because, the thinking went, the only way to explain the ludicrous chaos we live in is if it’s a literal clown show. Like the Absurdists before them,

There has been no public announcement or discussion of the Minister’s intention to sign this agreement. In short, the Minister is signalling before the next government is even elected, an intention to ratify. Labour is putting globalists in charge of the high seas, and from here the NGOs will
So-called “fact-checkers”, as anyone with a functioning critical faculty is well aware, have very little interest in actual facts. Instead, they function almost universally as narrative-confirmation machines. Contrary to the media’s self-serving palaver about “speaking truth to power”, “fact-checkers” are in the business of telling lies for power. The
As New Zealand’s panjandrums of “combatting extremism” like to babble, “If there’s just one Nazi flag at your rally, it’s a Nazi rally”. Worse, we’re finger-wagged, “If nine people sit down at a table with one Nazi without protest, there are ten Nazis at the table”
Do you think that people in countries that historically sank into authoritarianism realised it, as it was happening? Generally, the answer seems to have been that nobody at the time really grasped what was bearing down on them. When the Maoists seized power in China, crowds in large cities like

As H. P. Lovecraft wrote, in his famous opening sentences of The Call of Cthulhu: “We live on a placid island of ignorance in the midst of black seas of infinity, and it was not meant that we should voyage far”. Certainly, we’ve barely dipped our toes in the
For all their blatherskite about “truth-telling”, the troughers of the Aboriginal industry persistently peddle one of the biggest, most damaging lies about Aboriginal culture. This is the lie that traditional Aboriginal culture was a peaceful, agrarian utopia. The appalling violence of contemporary Aboriginal society, when they even admit to it,
