Some Consistency Would Be Nice

For some time now I have followed with great interest David Farrar’s ‘Kiwiblog’. I have found his posts to be both entertaining and providing a unique perspective about New Zealand politics. Mr Farrar is indeed an intelligent pundit with remarkable wit. That is why it pains me to disagree

Elite Lies Show How Scared They Are

Few things are as obvious as rank hypocrisy — especially from elites. Whether it’s the “eight or ten fat gentlemen” of the workhouse board who berate Oliver Twist for asking for more gruel, or the legion of sleek celebrities and billionaires who lecture us about the evils of CO2 from

New Laws Aren’t the Answer to Leftist Misogyny

I have great admiration for retiring South Australian Liberal MP Nicolle Flint. But I absolutely disagree with her proposal to outlaw offending women. Let’s be clear: Flint has put up with years of appalling abuse. Stalking, rape threats, death threats — on line and in person. That this tidal wive

Israel Adesanya Comes Out Swinging for Joe Rogan

While a geriatric coalition of has-been Boomer rockers flap their gums and shake their flabby fists at Joe Rogan, the podcasting giant is not without defenders. New York Times reporter Matthew Rosenberg, in a rare display of mainstream media self-awareness, tweeted that “We in the media might want to spend

Free Speech Is Terrorism!

Free Speech Is Terrorism!

A friend of mine recently posted on Facebook that, “Biden has labeled freedom of speech as a terroristic threat to the U.S. Homeland”. Surely this is just another social media hyperbole? In fact, no.

Why Are the Elite So Keen to End Online Anonymity?

Somebody pass the smelling salts, I agree with Owen Jones. Jones is the avatar of what Orwell derided as the “pansy-left”: the effete, pampered, double-Arts degree types, ostentatiously flashing their copies of Marx and The Guardian in the cafes of the “better” suburbs.

The Hilarious Sound of Frantic Backpedalling

As I’ve been reporting, Jewish Hollywood is noticing, too late, that they’ve created a golem that’s running amok and coming for them. 50 years ago Norman Podhoretz had the bad manners to notice that a great many blacks in his neighbourhood were bullying thugs who brutally oppressed
