I’m not the world’s biggest Elon Musk fan: the fellow does some great things, some awful things, and a whole lot of very silly things. But, he was absolutely correct, when he said, What I see all over the place is people who care about looking good while
The most important thing centrists and conservatives need to remember about the left is that they never, ever take “No” for an answer. No matter how many times they’re democratically told to shove off, the left scream and stamp their feet and hold their breath until they get their
The most effective censorship is one where the authorities don’t have to do anything at all: everyone pre-emptively censors themselves. Which, as George Orwell pointed out, was the whole reason for NewSpeak: anti-Party thought would be literally unsayable, and thus un-thinkable. In a remarkable but lesser-known Swedish novel, Kallocain,

Labour is in the doldrums in the last poll of the year. It is the Roy Morgan though, but it does show how much Kiwis have fallen out of love with Labour. Today’s Roy Morgan New Zealand Poll for November 2023 shows new Prime Minister Christopher Luxon and the

Democracy is, above all else, the art of compromise. Short of the sort of hive-mind that the left can only dream of, citizens of a polity are going to have very different and often opposing needs, wants and opinions. You can’t, to paraphrase FDR, please all of the people,
Do what you love and you’ll never work another day in your life. That old saying is true even for whores: and there are no more willing whores than the mainstream media. When the NZ media indignantly denied that taking the government’s money influenced them to be favourable
Whenever I hear some prating idiot hand-wringing about “innocent Palestinians”, I reach for my barf bag. Not because there are no innocent Palestinians: I’m sure there are a few tots who haven’t yet learned virulent Jew-hatred at their mother’s (or the UNRWA’s) knee. We know for

One of the major reasons the sleazy, deranged transgender ideology achieved near-hegemony so quickly is the sheer gutlessness of those who very much know better. We shouldn’t expect anything less than prolix cretinism, of course, from social ‘science’ or ‘gender studies’ academics, but biologists, doctors, psychiatrists, pediatricians – all of
If George Soros was a foreign government or a beardy-weirdy with a green rag on his head, he’d long ago have been designated a “foreign adversary”. The US government defines a “foreign adversary” as “any foreign government or foreign non-government person engaged in a long-term pattern or serious instances
