By Selwyn Duke A civilizational sea change is occurring, an ideological inflection point may be getting closer. Immigration, long considered as American as apple pie, as almost sacrosanct, is being questioned. The belief underlying it, immigrationism, suddenly no longer has the almost universal dogma status it once enjoyed.

By Selwyn Duke Most of us have heard about the scores (or more) of “genders” social engineers have conjured up. Thanks to the Trump administration, however, school officials will no longer have to identify as a particular one: “pandergender.” This is because the administration’s Department of Education is terminating coercive, Obama/Biden-era agreements compelling schools to…

By Selwyn Duke “The ultimate result of shielding men from the effects of folly is to fill the world with fools,” warned 19th-century English philosopher Herbert Spencer. Would he say today, though, that the ultimate result of shielding men from the effects of folly is … the United States’ criminal-justice system? Some may thus wonder…

By Selwyn Duke It is interesting to note that both ancient Greece, the “cradle of Western civilization,” and the Roman Empire, which spread Western civilization, declined and “fell” due partially to internal divisions.

So claims lame-duck Representative Jasmine Crockett (D-Texas), anyway. This is even though the man who nominated Jackson to the High Court, then-President Joe Biden, made clear he chose…

By Selwyn Duke After he was shot in 1981, “President Reagan said to me, ‘I hope you’re all Republicans,’ and I replied, ‘Today, we’re all Republicans,’” one Dr. Giordano related in 2010. “I’m not a Republican,” added the physician, who treated Reagan, “but I thought for this one day I could be one.” Reagan was…

By Selwyn Duke Not long ago I met a very impressive and unusual 20-year-old man. Having already imbibed great literary works and philosophical material as most of his age-mates do social-media dross, he is what the average 50-year-old philosophy professor would be if he actually, well, understood philosophy (i.e., that it is “a search for…

By Selwyn Duke Here’s a good question: What’s the point in sending the military to the Mideast to defend the West while also bringing the Mideast to the West? One man who may nod approvingly at this question is commentator Glenn Beck. After all, in 1999 he predicted blood in Manhattan’s streets within 10 years…
