February 1, 2025

By Selwyn Duke What do you think of the following information about the hiring of air traffic controllers? Candidates “whose worst subject in high school was science [and who played a lot of sports] and candidates who are unemployed receive the most points possible on the test” (for the position), wrote The Blaze in 2018. “In contrast,…

Study: Gen Zers Want Safety Above All Else. Will They Trade Liberty for It?

January 31, 2025

By Selwyn Duke Ah, those carefree days of youth, when kids feel so bulletproof that they may seem oblivious to their own mortality. Well, that’s the way it was, anyway. If a new study is to be believed, however, this has changed, with Gen Z young people being more mother hen than rowdy rooster. In…

Trump May Kill “DEI” in Name, but It Will Live on Unless….

January 21, 2025

January 20, 2025

By Selwyn Duke Methinks the man doth protest too much. This twist on a Shakespeare line could come to mind while pondering the story of one Darrin Bell, Pulitzer Prize-winning cartoonist.

Liberal Magazine: “Colleges Are Lying to Their Students”

January 15, 2025

By Selwyn Duke If ever there were a sign that academia’s shtick is getting a bit stale, it’s when even a liberal magazine starts scoffing at its norms. This is what has happened, too, with the left-wing Atlantic warning that “colleges are lying to their students.” No, the outlet isn’t complaining about the various leftist isms pervading…

By Selwyn Duke “I was anxious. I felt guilty constantly. I couldn’t stop thinking about the whole white privilege thing.” This is what Lucy Kross got for her money as a Stanford University student (yearly tuition, room, and board: $76,312). She would eventually realize she’d been deceived and, it could be said, intellectually abused —…
Most “Mentally Ill” People Are Leftists, Says Writer; “Transgenderism” Is One Example

January 5, 2025

By Selwyn Duke Most “mentally ill” people are on the political left, Harvard professor Arthur Brooks explained last year. In 2016, the American Journal of Political Science reported that liberal political beliefs are linked to psychoticism. A decade earlier, radio legend Dr. Michael Savage released his eyebrow-raising book Liberalism Is a Mental Disorder. But could it really be that there’s an association between…
