By Selwyn Duke "I was used…. I was very naive; I was in a really bad way, and I got taken advantage of.” So said Chris Beck, who for about a decade went by “Kristen Beck” after claiming to have transitioned to being a woman. Beck was a convenient poster boy for the MUSS (Made-up…

By Selwyn Duke In 2017, Time magazine followed up on its 1966 “Is God Dead?” cover with one asking, “Is Truth Dead?” Since these two things are related, perhaps it’s surprising it took them so long. Truth, properly understood, can’t die, of course. But people’s belief in it can. This has long been happening and is why,…

By Selwyn Duke “Haters of humanity,” the Romans called the early Christians, whom they infamously would sometimes throw to the lions. Much later in history, the French revolutionaries would try eliminating Christianity by, in part, creating a new calendar with 10-day weeks excluding the Lord’s Day. Mexico’s revolutionary government, beginning in 1926, instituted anti-clerical laws…

By Selwyn Duke While conservatives sometimes like to say that Bill Maher is getting red-pilled, it’s more like he’s getting pink-pilled: He increasingly recognizes the insanity of today’s Left, but still accepts liberalism’s basic suppositions. In this vein, being unlikely to value-signal, Maher doesn’t act as if shows of style are substitutes for the substance…

By Selwyn Duke Since I’m going to be criticizing a now widely accepted phenomenon, this piece may evoke eyerolls from some supporters. So be it, because certain things need to be said. I must confess that with the way many of my fellow adults behave today, it can make me ashamed to be one. I…

By Selwyn Duke It’s a shocking story. Imagine you complain on Facebook about your child’s school curriculum. You then get some feedback: An army officer calls you an “extremist” and writes that military “leadership have had the Security Forces working with multiple state and local law enforcement agencies to monitor” your situation. Sure enough, the…

By Selwyn Duke Referencing how our powers that be are all implicated in mandating the Covid “vaccines” and thus will never expose their sometimes deadly side effects, I wrote last month that my “only hope is that a nation with a less compromised medical establishment (perhaps Sweden or Japan?) will investigate and expose the truth…

By Selwyn Duke Canceling a scheduled event at the very last minute simply because you don’t like the group that booked it doesn’t sound like a display of dignity. Nonetheless, protecting “dignity” was one of the reasons a Richmond, Virginia, restaurant cited when doing just that after learning that it would be serving a pro-life Christian organization…

By Selwyn Duke Not too many Americans want to see their land become more like China, but it is doing so in at least one particular way: The United States is secularizing — and rapidly. In fact, more than a third of Americans under 30 and 23 percent of adults overall now claim no religious…

By Selwyn Duke It was already the case that certain conservative websites have had to eliminate their comment sections under threat from Big Tech, which has the ability to take those sites offline (as it did with Parler). Now the New York state government has gotten in on the act, instituting a “hate speech” law…
