  • By Selwyn Duke “What embitters the world is not excess of criticism,” noted philosopher G.K. Chesterton, “but an absence of self-criticism.” This could come to mind with a recent Wall Street Journal piece titled “Gen Z, the Useful Idiot Generation.” Oh, it’s not that the authors are wrong about how “leftism” greatly infects this relatively young…

  • By Selwyn Duke “The Democratic Party won’t be in power for a long, long time now,” we hear. The idea is that there has been a “realignment” and/or that the wrong ideology (wokeness) has hobbled the party. Well, we’ve seen this movie and its remakes before. The ending is always the same, too. After Republican President Richard…

  • By Selwyn Duke Imagine, as a thought exercise, that a prominent man said the following, explaining why he was purposely raising kids without a mother. Do you know how f****** great it is to live exactly how I want to live, to experience fatherhood exactly how I wanted to experience it? And I know the next thing they say…

  • By Selwyn Duke With the Democrats controlling neither the presidency nor Congress and having largely failed to stop deportations via the courts, they’ve exhausted the political options for advancing their pro-illegal-migration agenda (at least for now). So they’re perhaps left grasping at straws. Enter the religious option. To wit: Many leftists are now citing the…

  • By Selwyn Duke “Liberals Are Such Children,” read a 2009 PennLive headline. “These people act like children,” the article states, “even though they may nominally have been adults for many years.” Perhaps this helps explain why many liberals feel a kid is mature enough to “choose his sex.” And perhaps it sheds light on an…

  • Image created using Grok AI. By Selwyn Duke Released in 1973, the dystopian film Soylent Green portrayed an overpopulated world of 40 billion, with teeming masses enduring food scarcity, poverty, social stratification, resource depletion, urban decay, and environmental collapse. Oh, all this was supposed to be happening in 2022. In reality, our global population in 2025 is…

  • Image created using Grok AI. By Selwyn Duke It’s a bit like Scarface saying you’re too much of a thug or Cheech & Chong warning that you smoke too much weed. When the left-wing Atlantic says liberals have jumped the shark on youth “gender medicine,” serious soul searching is warranted. Oh, this doesn’t mean it’s going to…

  • Image created using Grok AI. By Selwyn Duke “Sandy is the seashore — and Sandy is the sea.” “She can turn to anything that she would like to be,” sang the late Harry Chapin in 1975. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.), or AOC, known as Sandy Cortez growing up in her posh suburb, wasn’t around when Chapin…

  • By Selwyn Duke It’s arguably true that agitation by organization Black Lives Matter (tag-teaming with Antifa) hobbled President Donald Trump’s 2020 election chances. This is why it’s ironic that while he’s maligned as a “racist,” Trump may enjoy a unique status. He may be the real “Black Lives Matter” president. That is, in the sense…

  • Image credit: DVSROSS/Wikimedia Commons By Selwyn Duke You take for granted that, despite the abundance of wild creatures, your children will be safe at the zoo. The secure cages and pens lend that sense of security. But it’s a false sense at the Toronto Zoo, where a certain “species,” some say predatory, roams about unfettered.…
