Image credit: Adolf Knause/Wikimedia Commons By Selwyn Duke Sometime after WWII, rumors began circulating that Nazi dictator Adolf Hitler didn’t commit suicide, but, clever man, escaped. It’s true, too, that Hitler lives. Sure, he’d be 136 today, just having had a birthday last Sunday. But he lives. Hitler lives in the hearts and minds and…

By Selwyn Duke Say what you will about the “woke” Left’s recent fall from favor, there’s no denying their profound cultural victories. Just consider the results of a 2023 Gallup poll and a 2020 Democracy Fund voter study group: While “four in 10 American adults overall say they are extremely proud to be an American,…

Image: YouTube By Selwyn Duke The warning that “crime doesn’t pay” is surely true — in the spiritual sense, that is. Yet the material one may be a different matter, especially in this time in which villainy is confused with virtue. A recent example is healthcare CEO murderer Luigi Mangione, whose crowdfunding donations have reached…

By Selwyn Duke It certainly is odd that the ideological set now claiming not to know what a woman is once claimed to know precisely what a woman’s role should be. But it did. And, boy, was it ever a coup, in league with convincing eagles they shouldn’t fly or sunfish they shouldn’t swim. In…

One could wonder what he’d say today, with “psychology” — which means “study of the soul” — being both soulless and ubiquitous. And it being so widespread is a reason, it’s said, that autism diagnoses are…

By Selwyn Duke When the history of our time is finally written, assuming there’s someone around to write it (AI?), one can imagine how the historians may interpret the Democrats’ obsession with pseudo-sex-switching. “They believed boys could become girls merely by wishing it, and they persecuted those deviating from this orthodoxy.” “It’s why the Democratic…

By Selwyn Duke Legendary president Ronald Reagan authored a “revolution,” seeking to shrink government, lower taxes, reduce regulations, and defeat the Soviet menace. He accomplished much governmentally, too, earning the ire of leftists who dubbed him “Ronald Ray-gun.” Yet in truth, he could do little about our cultural trajectory, and American society was notably more…

By Selwyn Duke Here’s an interesting test if you have any young people in your life. Ask them to finish the following rhyme: “Sticks and stones may….” A second question you can pose to the whippersnapper is: Is “hate speech” protected by the First Amendment? (And just hope they know what the First Amendment is.)…

Image created using AI. By Selwyn Duke There’s a simple rule of life: If people cannot talk things out, they’re left to fight them out. One man who apparently understands this is Democratic comedian-cum-commentator Bill Maher. After all, bucking criticism from fellow liberals (leftists), Maher recently agreed to accept an invitation to visit the White…

By Selwyn Duke A few decades ago a woman I knew well, of Japanese descent, told me a story about a time she walked into a Korean restaurant. “We don’t want your kind in here,” someone staffing the eatery bluntly told her. Old prejudices die hard, and the woman promptly left. She could’ve filed a…
