It’s a sign of how far post-Marxist ideology has subsumed every aspect of the academy that even science has succumbed. Science was once, theoretically at least, about the fearless pursuit of truth. If that were ever true, it certainly isn’t any more. The assault on science is multi-pronged:

The below video seems to have been missed when it came out back in April this year. Probably because it was of John Campbell slavishly fawning over our three ‘award winning scientists’ and nobody with half a brain or any shred of dignity watches Campbell anymore, or indeed, could even
Once again, the mainstream media are catching up to independents like The BFD. No, I’m not talking about the first rumblings of dissent with Jacinda Ardern (I’ll deal with that in another post): What I’m talking about is the mainstream media finally admitting the unthinkable. Unthinkable for

NZDSOS New Zealand Doctors Speaking out with Science NZDSOS is a group of doctors, dentists and scientists who are concerned about the safety of the roll-out of the Pfizer vaccine in New Zealand and the lack of balance in the information being presented.

When one of the USA’s worst serial killers and rapists, who terrorised a state for decades, was finally caught, surely no one could object? But they have. Because the killer was caught using publicly available genealogy database technology. Now, not only are private companies refusing to cooperate with police,
For a while there, some scientists thought we were about to lose Betelgeuse. Betelgeuse is an easy star to find in the Southern hemisphere summer: it’s the bright red star directly below the base of the “saucepan” (Orion). It’s one of the closest red supergiant stars to Earth.
Coelacanths really are a remarkable fish. For decades, the species was only known by its fossils. Fossils that showed the fish had been around for a very, very long time. Coelacanths belong to a lineage of lobe-finned fishes – which are more closely related to tetrapods (amphibians, reptiles, birds and mammals)
Dear Editor I would like to thank you as one, or maybe the only, voice calling this wayward government to account. I am of the opinion that we are being lied to, or at the very least, our government are slaves to groupthink regarding the pandemic and the way forward.
Australian author Sean McMullen’s Greatwinter novels are set in the post-apocalyptic wastelands of Victoria (no, not Melbourne in lockdown). There are no electrical machines because orbiting robotic battle satellites immediately vaporise any sign of electromagnetic activity. Dare to flick on the simplest circuit and instant, merciless death strikes from

Marc Grey In three previous articles various aspects of the novel covid vaccines were examined, While it was possible to discuss the design/formulation of them, we could essentially only speculate about what might happen with respect to adverse reactions and other risks. Now we are rolling out the vaccine
As I’ve repeatedly warned: Never believe a headline. Especially a headline which makes an unbelievably exciting science claim. If it sounds unbelievable, that’s because it almost certainly is. Case in point: Nasa says newly discovered ‘weird’ planet with ‘unknown’ atmosphere is remarkably similar to Earth. A ‘weird’ planet
