By Selwyn Duke “Civilizations die from suicide, not by murder,” said historian Arnold Toynbee. Slow suicide is tragic, too. It may be obvious that a man hooked on drugs or alcohol is headed toward destruction. Yet he still may be unable to kick his addictions. And so it is with civilizations and their addictions to…

By Selwyn Duke Ex-president Bill Clinton, who in 1998 said in response to questions about infidelity, “I did not have sexual relations with that woman, Miss Lewinsky” (even though he did), apparently isn’t alone among Democrats in having the morals of an alley cat. That’s what a new study shows, anyway. The recently released research,…

By Selwyn Duke “There is no female Mozart because there is no female Jack the Ripper,” pointed out feminist professor and cultural critic Camille Paglia, demonstrating a grasp of sex differences. Men do get plenty of “credit” for their Jack the Rippers, too. And their Mozarts (and heroes)? Not so much.

Yet the Land of the Rising Sun never had a chance. With an industrial base dwarfed by that of the United States, its eventual defeat was…

By Selwyn Duke Certain people in our society are members of what has been called the “culture of death.” They have outed themselves again, too, in a most shocking way: Celebrating the murder of the healthcare CEO assassinated Wednesday on a Manhattan street. What’s more, in this they’re not just cheering the murder of a…

By Selwyn Duke Some companies advertise their fall from grace. Bud Light, for example, signaled descent into woke darkness with a “trans” influencer ad campaign. It didn’t end well (though, really, it hasn’t yet ended). Jaguar exhibited symptoms of mad cat disease with a commercial featuring what look like sexually confused extraterrestrials visiting Earth. Whether this…

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…
