Ann Coulter formulated her famous Law of Mass Shootings: The longer we go without being told the race of the shooter, the less likely it is to be a white male. It holds up pretty well, although it needs an addendum: The time it takes for a shooting to drop
The mainstream media are shocked, shocked, I tell you, that fewer people than ever trust them. Perhaps they might consider whether their growing litany of lies over recent years. Only recently, for instance, media from TV1, to NPR and Australia’s ABC, reported “The International Court of Justice finding a
It’s impossible to not be moved by the stirring hymn, “Jerusalem”. The hymn is, of course, the words of Christian mystic William Blake’s poem, And did those feet in ancient time… The poem was first set to music in 1917 by Sir Hubert Parry, and its most famous
Early in its history, the Earth was routinely bombarded with meteorites and even other planets. Thankfully for those of us who call it home, that cosmic smash-up derby has eased off over time. This is partly due to outer planets like Jupiter, and even our own Moon, acting as
This is classic Maltese peasant food: hot and filling. A great winter warmer. Ingredients: * Plain flour (around 1/4 cup, as needed) * 6–8 lamb forequarter chops (pork chops can also be used, but trim some of the fat) * Plenty of cracked black pepper * Salt to taste * 4–6 medium/
Readers take note: April Fool’s Day was over a month ago, so it’s not a hoax when I write this: I finally agree with something Waleed Aly says. Long time BFD readers will know just what sort of contempt I hold for little Wally, but even a stopped
What is it with doddering old left-wing politicians savaging their countries’ closest allies? OK, granted, Bob Carr is retired from active politics, but his influence in Labor politics remains immense. So, when Carr attacks the New Zealand government over its possible joining of AUKUS, you can bet people in
Once again student leftists are at the “find out” stage, after their latest outburst of fucking around. First, it was prestigious law firms going on record that they would decline to hire graduates of formerly prestigious Ivy League colleges: A number of large law firms have already signalled their increasing
I’ve said it multiple times. Each time I’m joking less and less: it’s time to bulldoze the universities. By which I definitely do not mean we should turn our backs on what universities are meant to stand for, higher education and free inquiry. But it’s been
Are they ready yet to admit that multiculturalism has failed? That it was always going to fail, because it’s a dangerously flawed ideology? As poet Les Murray wrote, the worst ethnic chauvinists are the purest multiculturalists. “All’s permitted… when they migrate.” Australia is reaping the failure of multiculturalism
Rarely has Labor’s doublespeak been so baldly exposed than this week. At the very same time that Anthony Albanese and his minions were blatherskiting about violence against women, yet another of the foreign criminals they turned loose on the Australian community bashed an elderly woman within an inch of
It looks as if the backlash against the ‘rainbow’ groomers is really hitting its stride. The only surprise is that it’s taken this long. Of course, the only reason the groomers got away with what they did for even this long is because most people blindly accepted the mantra
And another one down, another down, another one bites the dust… Remember when you were a crazy conspiracy theorist for calling AstraZeneca the “clot shot”? It was foolish, of course, to maintain that people were dropping dead in droves with blood clots following AstraZeneca vaccination, but that there did seem
Hoo, boy — for a party which makes such a big song and dance about its purity, the Greens sure do seem to attract the worst people. Not just frock-stealers and (alleged) modern-day slavers, but, here in Australia, alleged rapists, sexual harassers, self-confessed shoplifters and drug users, and
Yes, folks, just as I predicted, the circus is far from over: Bruce Lehrmann and Brittany Higgins are going to keep scandal-mongering journalism (present company excepted, hem-hem) well-supplied for a good while, yet. In a new twist, Aussie taxpayers might be wondering where the $2.4m of
When even the dim bulbs of The Economist come out against a bien pensant leftist icon, you really know they’ve screwed up. So, its recent scathing review of Judith Butler’s latest book is perhaps as sure a prodigy as any that even the NPCs are ready to call
