I have been saying for some time, that most university degrees are not worth the paper that they are printed on. My main critique relates to areas of the woke Arts, Humanities and Social Sciences, recognising that STEM subjects could be better done in special schools and institutes. Anyway, while there does not seem to be updated stats for Australi...
The US House of Representatives, Interim Staff Report of the Committee on the Judiciary, has published a report entitled, GARM's Harm: How the World's Biggest Brands Seek to Control Online Speech. The Global Alliance for Responsible Media (GARM) initiative, was set up in 2019 by the World Federation of Advertisers (WFA) together with the World Econ...
Communist China is set to be able to field killer robots on the battle field within two years. The robots will not be Terminator-style humanoids, but will be more like large dogs with machine guns attached to their backs. While this seems intimidating, there will be clear limitations to this. The robot might be of use in attacking foxholes with sol...
This is an interesting, and significant development, especially with the movement to Central Bank Digital Currencies (CBDC) and digital ID. The "Skeleton Key" AI jailbreak technique, involves a manipulation of AI models by attacking the protective guardrails of the system, that being the rules that control outputs, so that such outputs do not gener...
Trump's running mate is Senator J. D. Vance (Republican, Ohio). Vance is a strong Christian, and has an Indian wife, which will probably do nothing to fight off charges of racism once he gets into action on border control. He is relatively young, and educated at Yale University, and in fact was editor for a time of the Yale Law Journal. For debates...
At present the West is gripped by the ideology of zero net produced by climate change catastrophe/alarmist ideologies. This view is in fact the dominant view in the West, held by globalist organisations right down to lowly academic punters who brainwash the next generation. For example, the present Pope has written and spoken much about an alleged ...
Affirmative action, now all under the banner of Diversity, Equity/Equality and Inclusion/Identity (DEI or better yet, DIE), was on display at the attempted assassination of President Trump. As pointed out by journalist and freedom movement figure, Ann Coulter, we saw a number of small framed women showing their incompetency. There is footage availa...
Canadian intellectual, Ricardo Duchesne, has done fine work in defence of White European civilisation, particularly by debunking historical material from the Left. In the post below he tackles the leftist dependency/imperialism/colonialism thesis that Western civilisation only achieve greatness (something the Left contests as well), by exploiting t...
Some songs stick with you as they have some splendid lines. The song may be bunk, but the line lives with you. Thus, Wayne Fontana in 1966 song Pamela, Pamela: "When Laurel and Hardy were shown at the flicks With sticky red lollies on splintery sticks Pigtails and ribbons and crushes on miss Secret discussions about a first kiss But you were young ...
One of the looming issues that will confront the move to the use of renewable energy is the enormous energy demands made by information technology data centres. Surprisingly enough each ChatGPT request takes on average 2.9 watt-hours, which is around 10 times the electricity used for an average Google request. Some US states, such as Virginia, cons...
The reaction of the mainstream media to the Trump shooting immediately after the event proves that we have a false news media. For example, CNN ran the headline "Secret Service Rushes Trump Off Stage After He Falls at Rally." The headline was kept as long as possible and was eventually changed to reveal the shooting event. That was only after then ...
The fascinating thing about the media coverage of the Trump assassination attempt is that unlike 9/11, even some mainstream media outlets are raising pointed questions about the security failures, which were so bad that it is hard not to see this as deliberate. The key points that have previously been covered are first that a police officer confron...

As documented by David Haig, "The Inexorable Rise of Gender and the Decline of Sex: Social Change in Academic Titles, 1945–2001," Archives of Sexual Behavior, Vol. 33, No. 2, April 2004, the term "gender" was once rarely used, even in academia, but that changed with the work of psychologist J. Money on the sexual identity of hermaphrodites, rare oc...

Leith van Onselen had done great work at Macrobusiness.com.au, debunking the "lie" – his term – that international students generate $46 billion of export earnings for Australia. This figure, which was produced by the Australian Bureau of Statistics, who should know better, is derived by "an average spend estimate from Tourism Research Australia … ...
Elon Musk has stated that the EU, as part of its censorship agenda, offered him a secret deal that all other social media platforms accepted, but Musk rejected. That led recently to the EU launching a new attack using the Digital Services Act (DSA). The EU alleged that Musk was in violation of the Act. In response that was when Musk revealed the se...
Elon Musk is set to donate $ 45 million a month towards the Trump campaign, via the America PAC. The change of heart, to go full out on Trump support came after the attempted assassination. The money will go towards the fight in swing states. What is of general interest here is that this raises the question of funding, which is a vulnerability for ...
The article title by Leith van Onselen at Macrobusiness.com.au is "Australia Turns Nation of Millionaire Mortgage Slaves." The article discusses the significance of the claim by the UBS Global Wealth Report, that Australia now has 1.9 million US-dollar millionaires. Doing the maths, this equates to $ US 5.4 trillion, a tidy sum indeed, if it was "r...
Dr. Mercola has argued the case that the Covid dam has broken, meaning the suppression of questioning of the Covid vaxxes is beginning to break down. He cites numerous cases from the literature, now openly challenging the "safe and effective" narrative. Thus, a study published in the peer-reviewed journal Frontiers in Immunology, investigated the e...
