Australia is now among the most lucrative drug markets in the world. Methamphetamine, also known as "ice," is flooding in at unprecedented levels, despite massive seizures and years of government "crackdowns." A new report by the UN Office on Drugs and Crime confirms what many of us already suspected: the war on drugs, at least when it comes to met...
A June 30, 2025, Guardian article reports that UN Special Rapporteur Elisa Morgera is urging governments to criminalise fossil fuel "disinformation," ban industry lobbying and advertising, and phase out oil, gas, and coal by 2030 to meet human rights obligations. Her report, The Imperative of Defossilizing Our Economies, argues that fossil fuel com...
The notion of human equality lies at the heart of liberal ideology, promising a world where all individuals enjoy equal opportunities, rights, and outcomes. Yet, as Bo Winegard argues in his July 2025 Aporia Magazine article, "Against Equality," this ideal is not only unattainable but fundamentally at odds with the reality of human diversity. From ...
In a move that sounds ripped from a satirical sketch, Berlin's Green Party has proposed a "voluntary" price cap on ice cream, aiming to make a single scoop affordable at 50 cents for children and low-income families. As reported by BILD and critiqued by the blog eugyppius on July 5, 2025, Green politicians Benedikt Lux, Tuba Bozkurt, and Marianne B...

A provocative headline from The Daily Sceptic on July 5, 2025, asks, "Pet Hates: Are Muslims in Britain Really Trying to Ban Dogs?" The article, penned by Steven Tucker, suggests that rumours of British Muslims pushing for a dog ban have been swirling for years, drawing parallels to occasional hardline proposals in Iran. However, much of the conten...
The renewable energy industry has long been heralded as the future of power, clean, cheap, and sustainable. Advocates claim that wind and solar energy, powered by the free forces of nature, are not only environmentally friendly but also economically competitive with fossil fuels. Yet, as Diana Furchtgott-Roth argues in her July 2, 2025, Telegraph a...
In a provocative piece published by The Telegraph and echoed by The Daily Sceptic on July 5, 2025, journalist Guy Dampier warns that Britain is becoming a "hotel for the world's criminals." The claim, backed by a new analysis from the Conservative Party, suggests that illegal immigrants arriving via small boats across the Channel are disproportiona...
In George Orwell's dystopian novel 1984, Big Brother's omnipresent surveillance stripped individuals of privacy, fostering a society where control was absolute and dissent was impossible. Today, the European Union's ambitious ProtectEU strategy, unveiled in April 2025, brings us closer to that chilling vision. Under the guise of public safety, the ...
The debate over seed oils and their impact on health has sparked heated discussions in wellness circles, with linoleic acid (LA), an omega-6 fatty acid abundant in seed oils, at the centre of the controversy. Critics, including prominent alternative health advocates like Dr. Joseph Mercola, have long warned that high LA consumption, common in Weste...
The sprawling cement citadels of modern cities, with their homogenised architecture and frenetic pace, often overshadow the quiet, rooted charm of Europe's villages. Yet, a recent study published in Nature Sustainability (DOI: 10.1038/s41893-025-01592-y) underscores the ecological and cultural significance of these rural communities, revealing thei...
The reverence for "experts" and the degree-holding technocratic/chattering class has become a cornerstone of modern discourse, yet their track record in recent years reveals a troubling pattern of hubris, intellectual arrogance, and a resistance to self-reflection. From economic forecasts to immigration policy, national security, and climate predic...
The recent heatwave in the UK has sparked another round of dire climate predictions, with the Met Office forecasting apocalyptic conditions by 2070, summers up to six degrees warmer and 60% drier. These claims, however, rely on the discredited RCP8.5 scenario, a model so unrealistic that even its creators and the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate ...

The World Economic Forum (WEF), formerly underKlaus Schwab's leadership who has now exited centre stage under internal controversy,but whose legacy continues, promises a glittering "Great Reset" powered by artificial intelligence (AI), a vision of a utopian future where technology ensures supposed sustainability and equality. But beneath the polish...
The stark contrast between American and European whites in their attitudes toward racial identity and nationalism is a puzzle that reveals as much about history as it does about human nature. As American Renaissance noted in a past article, still worth a read, while pro-white organisations in the United States and other Anglo-Saxon nations like Bri...
In the recent transgender wars, the Left insisted on its usual gambit: reality is not how it seems, but how we need it to be in order to do what we want. This is a way of promoting opinions about reality above reality itself because humans want to rationalize their desires as, if not real, at least, "good." Transsexualism promotes equality. Nature ...
The term "Artificial Intelligence" is a misnomer, a seductive label that promises more than it delivers. It conjures visions of machines with minds, solving society's woes with superhuman precision. Yet, as Joanna Gray argues in her December 2024 piece for The Daily Sceptic, what we call AI is not intelligent at all, it's just sophisticated technol...
A strong society is the foundation of security, when resources strain and trust erodes, the path to chaos opens. A study highlighted by The Daily Sceptic (July 3, 2025) argues that mass immigration, particularly the influx of asylum seekers under the Biden-Harris administration in the US, has driven a 60% share of the nearly 200,000 spike in U.S. h...
In a world increasingly fractured by ideology, Bettina Arndt, a veteran sex therapist and men's rights advocate, argues that feminist ideology has hijacked psychology, turning a once-scientific discipline into a weapon of anti-male propaganda. Her recent article, published on Modernity News and The Daily Sceptic (July 2, 2025), claims this shift is...
