By Selwyn Duke So often today we use weasel words, terms that just aren’t, you might say, “up to the challenge.” We may state that something is “inappropriate,” “suboptimal,” “problematic,” “misguided,” or “inadvisable” — even if it’s downright wicked. But not so with Bishop Michael Burbidge of the Diocese of Arlington, Virginia. He’s urging Catholics…

By Selwyn Duke Are we seeing a return to the days when “gay” meant happy? While I wouldn’t hold my breath waiting for that, a societal transition is afoot. Sexual devolutionary (“LGB”) identification, once all the rage among young people, is now diminishing. The group leading the decline is, too, the same group inordinately responsible…

By Selwyn Duke It was 20 years ago now that three Duke University lacrosse players were indicted on rape and other charges after a stripper, Crystal Mangum, claimed she was attacked at a team party. It became a real media cause célèbre, with pseudo-elites everywhere condemning the male undergraduates. But the case blew up in…

By Selwyn Duke Would you pay for your child to be “educated” with “Is the Rectum a Grave?” or “Sex in Public”? How about “Trans, Feminism: Or, Reading Like a Depressed Transsexual,” “Homonationalism in Queer Times,” or “AfroQueer Art Worlds”? No, this isn’t satire. The above are actual readings/courses in the University of Texas’ Department…

By Selwyn Duke Try this on for size: Massachusetts law restricts cooperation with Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE). Part of the justification for this, they say, is avoiding “family separation.” Yet the same state has just separated a family — stealing a daughter from her parents. And why? After the girl’s school “socially transitioned” her…

By Selwyn Duke “The end goal of feminist revolution must be … not just the elimination of male privilege,” wrote feminist Shulamith Firestone in 1970, “but of the sex distinction itself.” “Genital differences between human beings,” she added, “would no longer matter culturally.” Firestone doesn’t get much credit for it, but her standard became feminist…

By Selwyn Duke “Great social revolutions are impossible without the feminine ferment,” wrote infamous communism co-founder Karl Marx in 1868. Interestingly, too, it was a convention in 1848, the same exact year Marx’s Communist Manifesto was published, that’s often cited as marking “first-wave” American feminism’s birth. So the ideology has been around a long time…

By Selwyn Duke Have the Democrats really transitioned from the radical party of just a few years ago to sanity? That’s certainly what the current marketing holds. Why, we’re supposed to believe Senate candidate James Talarico (D-Texas) has made that transition just during the last few months. But, warns billionaire tech mogul Elon Musk, don’t…

By Selwyn Duke “I was selfish. I was looking out for myself. I was trying to do, first of all, what was good for me and making me happy, and only secondly, what was fair for the world.” Before there was a “trans” agenda — before there even was a debate over men in women’s…

By Selwyn Duke For years now I’ve been warning, to imprecisely echo Twain, that reports of wokeness’s death are greatly exaggerated. The force is in fact alive and well and still metastasizing. A story out of Portland, Oregon, illustrates this perfectly, too. It involves a mother who, after complaining about “trans” propaganda targeting her son,…
