By Selwyn Duke He was a lifeguard, but that didn’t save him from a society drowning in wokeness. In fact, 18-year-old Alex Katsnelson’s poolside job with his Vermont town’s parks and recreation department was just deep-sixed because he dared question pseudo-elite orthodoxy: He voiced opposition to Critical Race Theory (CRT). It’s a prime example of…

By Selwyn Duke “Many of the great disasters of our time have been committed by experts,” Professor Thomas Sowell has observed. And the way was paved for this when we began preferring experts to wise men and forgot that being an “expert” should first mean being expert — not just being credentialed. Read the rest…

By Selwyn Duke “Wokeness” is for the birds, critics might say. Except that this apparently isn’t true. For while we’ve heard of birds carrying messages and birds carrying diseases, our avian friends also allegedly carry something else: a “racist legacy.” That’s according to the Washington Post, anyway. No, the problem isn’t that Tweety  gave half-black…

By Selwyn Duke A well-informed citizenry is the best defense against tyranny,” noted Thomas Jefferson. It follows from this that if you want to visit tyranny upon a people, you can start by dumbing them down. Ergo, 21st-century America. Read the rest here.

By Selwyn Duke What do you call a person who won’t help a supposedly beloved relative, her grandmother, who’s in material need?

By Selwyn Duke Maybe they should rename it Social Justice High School. After all, Justice High School (JHS) in Falls Church, Virginia — known until 2018 as J.E.B. Stuart High School, in honor of a Confederate general — is now a wokester’s dream. While the institution is 50.3 percent Hispanic, 23.4 percent white, 13.6 percent…

By Selwyn Duke Call it “regression to type.” Since tribalism-born prejudice has ever plagued man, it’s no surprise that, with the emphasis on Christian brotherhood waning in the West, race hatred is back in style. It has returned with a vengeance, too, and with pseudo-intellectual approval in the form of “Critical Race Theory” (CRT). It’s…

By Selwyn Duke It’s ironic, but “progressives” so often progress toward Truth only long after ridiculing their opponents for espousing it. The COVID-19 lab-leak theory is no exception. It now is graduating — in the University of Leftist Thought, anyway — from tin-foil-hat conspiracy theory to striking possibility. Read the rest here.
