  • Minneapolis Shooting: Has Violent Left-wing Rhetoric Claimed More Lives?

    Communist RevolutionBy Selwyn Duke

    With possibly 99 percent of the political violence originating with the “Left,” some are asking a question. To wit:

    Is violent left-wing rhetoric responsible for yet another criminal incident, this time the recent Catholic Mass shooting?

  • Macho Mamdani? Some Think NYC Socialist/communist Is Key to Winning Back Young Men

    Failure FigureBy Selwyn Duke

    In a disastrous recent Men’s Day celebration, New York City Democratic mayoral nominee Zohran Mamdani couldn’t lift 135 pounds. Nonetheless, some liberals believe the socialist communist may succeed in lifting the Democrats out of their doldrums with young men. This hope may seem fanciful to some. What’s next, they could wonder, trying to attract the guys with Saturday Night Live’s Hans and Franz?

    There is, however, method to the Democrats’ madness. After all, style over substance can go far in politics, and Mamdani oozes charisma and has a silver tongue. On the other hand, with the Democrats’ substance becoming so sissified, can they really put enough lipstick on their collective female chauvinist sow to seduce generations of men they’ve impugned as “toxically masculine”?

  • Disney’s Demonism: Even Snoop Dogg Now Says Our Culture Is Too Woke

    There was a book, published in 1989, that contained a very interesting call to arms. There must be a desensitization of Americans to homosexuality via a “continuous flood of gay-related advertising,” the authors insisted. This requires, they added, a “conversion of the average American’s emotions, mind, and will, through a planned psychological attack, in the form of propaganda fed to the nation via the media.”

  • Left-wing Site Admits: “Democrats Can’t Win the Gerrymander War”

    Donkey-ElephantBy Selwyn Duke

    Why is the GOP House majority so slim, despite the Democrats’ profound unpopularity? One reason is the same reason the Democrats can’t win the current gerrymandering war:

    They’ve already expended their ammo.

    (They also don’t control enough states.)

    If you’d ask who originated gerrymandering, the Democrats or Republicans, know that the strategy is almost as old as the Republic itself. But also know it was named after Founding Father Elbridge Gerry, who facilitated it for the Democratic-Republicans in 1812. (The victims back then were the Federalists.) Today, though, the Democrats certainly have mastered the technique. This is why, for example, they hold 14 of Illinois’ 17 congressional seats — despite their winning just 55-60 percent of the statewide vote.

    And now the Republicans are threatening to follow suit. In fact, should they choose the gerrymandering nuclear option, they could gain as many as 11 to 15 congressional seats. That’s just for starters, too.

  • Liberal Ex-college Professor: “We’ve Been Sold a Bill of Goods … Called Multiculturalism”

    Confusion-Traffic SignsBy Selwyn Duke

    “I’ve come to the conclusion that we’ve been sold a bill of goods.”

    “And the bill of goods was called multiculturalism.”

    So said liberal evolutionary biologist, researcher, ex-academic, and now podcaster and commentator Brett Weinstein. He made his comments recently during a very intellectual discussion with famed clinical psychologist Jordan Peterson, part of which was posted Friday to the latter’s YouTube channel. And the two men essentially issued a warning, albeit in the most highbrow tone. To wit:

    Multiculturalism threatens Western civilization itself by prioritizing differences (read: diversity) over unity. If it is not “canceled,” the West very well may be.

  • Is Wokeness Really Dying? Or Is It Just Undergoing a Luciferian Change in Form?

    Demonic-looking Creature

    Some things never change, not even the nature of the ever-changing. The mythological Norse god Loki, a malevolent shapeshifter, changed form to outwit those who’d begun to recognize his previous guises. As for the real world and today, are we witnessing this age-old strategy being repeated?

    At issue is the notion that, with President Donald Trump’s election and a Sydney Sweeney-esque advertising revolution, “wokeness” is waning. This sentiment is widespread, too, reflected in recent books such as British satirist Andrew Doyle’s The End of Woke and Piers Morgan’s Woke Is Dead.

    Well, yes, that’s what wokeness, if I may anthropomorphize it, wants you to think.

  • The (Once) Mainstream Media’s War on Blacks

    Failure FigureBy Selwyn Duke

    During a 2012 radio discussion, black economics professors Walter E. Williams and Thomas Sowell warned that the KKK couldn’t do as much to sabotage blacks as their “friends” could. Of course, the term “friends” was being used very loosely. At issue, in reality, were the wolves in sheep’s clothing who purport to be blacks’ saviors.

    And now another prominent black figure is sounding the same alarm, blaming the once-mainstream media for harming the black community.

  • Lib-white-Karen Files: Why Are Leftists So “Crazy”?

    Karen-AngryBy Selwyn Duke

    “At the core of liberalism is the spoiled child,” wrote late journalist P.J. O’Rourke in 1992. This creature is, he continued, “miserable, as all spoiled children are, unsatisfied, demanding, ill-disciplined, despotic and useless.” One could now think, “My, I wish O’Rourke would’ve stopped mincing words and told us how he really felt.” But, today, a generation later, many are posing the question he was attempting to answer.

    For example, a Monday article headline asks, “Why Are Academics [generally hard-left] — and Others — So Nasty?” The author, Christopher Chantrill, wonders why leftists are so dogmatic and censorial. Another article headline, appearing the day before, queried, “Are they crazy? Or are they just leftist? With some women, it’s hard to tell.”

    The latter focuses on that not-sideshow-worthy human oddity now called a “Karen.” This is, of course, a person, typically a middle-aged white woman, who’s entitled, demanding, and usually woke.

  • A Christian Resurgence in the U.S.? To Some “Elites” and Gen Z, Faith Is Now Cool

    1746135_lowBy Selwyn Duke

    “At least five times” in history, Christianity “has to all appearance gone to the dogs,” G.K. Chesterton observed in 1925.

    “In each of these five cases it was the dog that died.”

    Now, just maybe, there is a sixth case. It was in 1882 that the sickly but self-deifying Friedrich Nietzsche announced that “God is dead.” And in 2016, hard-left Salon ran the headline, “This is the end of marriage, capitalism and God. Finally!” Its thesis was that millennials were rejecting organized religion, belief in God, marriage, and capitalism, and that this reflects enlightenment. It’s true, too, that “capitalism” (read: economic freedom) may be on the ropes. As for Christianity, though, the academic who wrote the Salon essay certainly was perceiving something real. But was it just another (devil) dog having its day?

    And is that canine now in its death throes?

  • “F*** ICE”: Vulgar, Anti-American “First Generation” UCLA Speaker Reflects Larger Problem

    Banana RepublicBy Selwyn Duke

    You probably wouldn’t, while a guest at someone’s home, want your child acting rudely and badmouthing the person. You also likely wouldn’t move to another country, someone else’s national home, and want your kid agitating against it.

    But in America, in 2025, we’re “strengthened” by people such as Jamie Han, who describes herself as a “first-generation immigrant” and “a now citizen.” Strengthened how?

    “I say, f*** ICE and f*** the Trump administration,” she exclaimed during a recent speech.

    The scene was the commencement ceremony at UCLA’s College of Letters and Science. Han is supposedly the institution’s best and brightest, too, with sources identifying her as the school’s valedictorian. (Note: I’ve not been able to confirm this.)

    Han’s speech, delivered in June, just recently went viral and has inspired calls for her deportation. (Again, though, she’s a citizen; she’d have to be denaturalized first.) Yet while this reaction isn’t surprising, what Han’s behavior is reflective of is more troubling than the behavior itself.
