The Fakery That is the War on Fake News

January 27, 2025

By Selwyn Duke Is it true that one man’s misinformation is another man’s salvation? Or is it actually true that what man censors is sometimes God’s sublimity? Author and university lecturer Nolan Higdon may not be pondering anything so ethereal. What he is sure of is that, as he wrote Sunday at Salon, the “war…
Biden Warns of Tech “Oligarchs” — Now That Tech ISN’T Censoring for Dems Anymore

January 18, 2025

By Selwyn Duke As I had on many other occasions, in 2020 I warned of a “dystopia-delivering tech oligarchy.” I cited Dr. Robert Epstein, a liberal who’s the senior research psychologist at the American Institute for Behavioral Research and Technology, and his studies on Big Tech influence. His findings were alarming, too. Big Tech, he warned, could…
Town Fined 10K for Not Celebrating “Pride” Month — and Other Foreign Craziness

December 3, 2024

By Selwyn Duke With the election of Donald Trump, many Americans are hopeful that so-called wokeness will go the way of the dodo. Yet as recent warnings inform, such cultural change requires, well, a change in the culture (not just the politics). And perhaps helpful in this regard is considering what happens when a civilization…
Britain, Land of Magna Carta, Is Slowly Becoming a Soviet State

November 19, 2024

By Selwyn Duke “But there’s no England now” is a famous lyric composed by songwriter and Kinks band member Dave Davies. One could wonder if he was aware of a certain irony, or if the given connection is actually by design. That is, the song containing the lyric was released in “1984,” which also is…
Thoughtcrime: UK Veteran Convicted for Praying SILENTLY Near Abortion Mill

October 26, 2024

By Selwyn Duke Not long ago, France made abortion a “constitutional right.” Britain hasn’t followed suit, but it can’t because it doesn’t have a constitution. In a way, however, it’s going France one better (read: worse). Its government has just convicted a veteran and father of two for praying silently near an abortion “clinic.” The…
X Marks the Plot: “Defenders of Democracy” Trying to Destroy the One True Social-media Democracy

October 24, 2024

(Image credit: Beatchoose/Wikimedia Commons) By Selwyn Duke We hear continual warnings from the Establishment and the Left (and the overlap there is profound) about “attacks on democracy.” Donald Trump, of course, is supposed to be a “threat to democracy.” Yet it all appears like projection. Why? Because the self-proclaimed “defenders of democracy” are now aiming…
Many U.S. Mainstream Media Join Brazilian Socialists to Try to Destroy Elon Musk’s X

September 7, 2024

By Selwyn Duke The “world is not obliged to put up with [Elon] Musk’s extreme right-wing anything goes just because he is rich.” So said Brazilian president and ex-convict Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva recently, referencing his nation’s attack on Musk’s X social media platform. Only, he didn’t mention that “anything goes” doesn’t mean killing…
Teacher Who Wouldn’t be Part of “Trans” Child Abuse of Boy Jailed for THIRD Time

September 4, 2024

By Selwyn Duke It’s said that Saint Patrick drove all the snakes from Ireland. It appears, however, that he might’ve missed a bunch. That is, if a recent story out of the Emerald Isle is any guide. To wit: In a testimonial to our upside-down world, an Irish Christian teacher has been imprisoned for the…
Pandering to Muslims, U.K. Leftists Are Suppressing Another Part of British Culture

August 31, 2024

By Selwyn Duke Are you a Briton who’s upset that your government is quashing free speech and arresting people for social-media posts? If so, well, don’t take for granted that you’ll be able to drink your woes away. Because now the speech-squelching Labour Party, the equivalent of U.S. Democrats, has another bright idea. They want…
Dystopia Across the Sea: “Extreme Misogyny” to be Called “Terrorism”

August 20, 2024

By Selwyn Duke “Britain is now an elite dictatorship where majority opinions are crushed,” wrote the Telegraph last year. That was before, too, the recent imprisonment of Brits for unapproved social-media posts, for, quote, “stirring ‘racial hatred.” (Here’s the evidence, your honor: Here’s the cup the defendant used. Here, in a hazmat container, is what’s left of the…
