Australia’s Draconian New Hate Speech Bill: A Repressive Assault on What was Left of Free Expression, By Paul Walker

In the wake of tragic events like the Bondi Beach attack in late 2025, the Australian government has responded with its usual opportunism.

Prime Min...

Australia’s New Hate Speech Bill is Reckless, Contradictory, and Repressive, By Christina Maaas

Australia's hate law rewrites justice into a guessing game where imagined offense can cost you five years of your life.

George Christensen on the Most Dangerous Bill Australians Have Yet Seen, By James Reed

George has set out the case in plain terms about why the Combating Antisemitism, Hate and Extremism Bill is the most dangerous threat to any resemblance of free speech left in socialist cesspool Australia. Governments in their terminal stages of decay, of managed decline like Australia, usually degenerate into such things. It can do nothing to stop...

Goethe: The Last Universal Genius in a World of Specialists, By Professor X

Here in an age of hyper-specialisation — where a PhD in quantum optics might not know Shakespeare, and a literary critic can't balance a chemical equation — Johann Wolfgang von Goethe stands as a defiant colossus. He was not merely a poet, novelist, or playwright. He was a polymathic titan who mastered literature, science, politics, theatre directi...

Seoul's Iron Curtain: How a "Progressive" Election Just Installed a Speech Police State, By Richard Miller (London)

November 11, 2025: A date that will live in infamy for anyone who believes democracy thrives on open debate, not on gag orders from the ruling class. In a cabinet meeting that reeked of authoritarian cosplay, South Korean President Lee Jae-myung — fresh off a razor-thin electoral "victory" for his far-left Democratic Party — declared war on words. ...

When the Smartest People Believe the Dumbest Things: How the System Hacks Intelligence, By Brian Simpson

The smartest people in the room are often the easiest to fool. Give them a complex model, a Latin phrase, a peer-reviewed citation, and a moral halo—and they'll swallow the most absurd deceptions whole. The system doesn't need to control the masses with brute force. It controls the elite with vanity, abstraction, and the illusion of mastery. This i...

Australia’s Great International Student Market Illusion, By Paul Walker

The great international student market illusion in Australia boils down to this: what policymakers and universities tout as a booming $50+ billion "export" industry is largely a statistical mirage, masking a system that functions more as a population replacement pipeline than a genuine export earner. Leith van Onselen's Macrobusiness.com.au piece f...

Australia's Immigration "Whack-a-Mole": Skills Shortages, Demographic Shifts, and the Myth of Merit-Based Migration, By James Reed

Australia's migration policy is often sold as a pragmatic engine for economic growth — a carefully calibrated intake of the "best and brightest" to fill yawning skills gaps and sustain a booming population. But as Leith van Onselen's analysis lays bare, it's devolved into a futile game of whack-a-mole: hammer down one shortage (say, in housing cons...

The E. Jean Carroll Case: A "Politically Motivated Hoax" or a Legitimate Verdict? A Critical Review, By Charles Taylor (Florida)

The saga of E. Jean Carroll's allegations against Donald Trump reads like a script from a Hollywood courtroom drama — fitting, perhaps, given the persistent claims that her story was cribbed from one. The case remains a flashpoint in the ongoing narrative of "lawfare" against Trump, with his legal team escalating the fight to the U.S. Supreme Court...

The Dangers of Centralised AI: A Threat to Free Thought — and How Decentralisation Can Save It, By Professor X

The artificial intelligence revolution is no longer a distant promise; it's a runaway train. Costs to train powerful large language models are plummeting — from millions of dollars today to a projected $20,000 within two years — democratizing access like never before. Yet this boom rests on shaky foundations: datasets scraped from the internet's ch...

Trump’s Trojan Horse: 600,000 Chinese Students to Bail Out the Ivory Tower Bubble, By Chris Knight (Florida)

Late last year President Donald Trump dropped a policy bombshell that could make even his MAGA base do a double-take: Let's crank up the visa pipeline for Chinese students to a whopping 600,000 a year. Why? To keep America's bloated university system from imploding like a house of cards in a windstorm. In ainterview, Trump laid it bare: "We also ha...

Trump Derangement Syndrome: The Eternal Tantrum of the Spoiled Left! By Charles Taylor (Florida)

In 2016, something broke in the progressive psyche that has never been repaired. It wasn't the election result itself; it was the revelation that the world did not, in fact, belong to them. For eight years they had marinated in Obama-era certainty: same-sex marriage was the final boss of history, "hope and change" meant permanent Left-wing hegemony...

Equality, Conscription, and the Price of Women’s Lib, By Mrs Brittany Miller (Londonistan)

Every few years, usually when geopolitics turns ugly, a rumour does the rounds: there will be a draft. And almost immediately, a second rumour follows: some groups will be exempt. Recently, social media has been alive with claims that if Britain ever reintroduced conscription, Muslim migrants would be exempt. This is nonsense — legally, constitutio...

Living Quietly While the Giants Rumble: The Ant's Quiet Rebellion Against Modernity's Tyranny, By Mrs. Vera West

This is an era of relentless acceleration, where algorithms dictate attention, careers demand perpetual performance, and the "good life" is measured in likes, promotions, and possessions, a subtle sea change is underway.

The Quiet Despair of a Generation: Why Young People See No Point in Jobs or a Future, By James Reed

In early 2026, as economic pressures mount and headlines cycle through inflation, interest rates, and endless cost-of-living debates, a deeper crisis simmers beneath the surface. Young people, particularly those in their late teens to mid-30s, are increasingly concluding that hard work, education, and ambition lead nowhere meaningful. The tradition...

France: The Usual Joys of Diversity, By Richard Miller (Londonistan)

 France rang in 2026 with more than 1,100 vehicles torched, a "zero tolerance" interior minister, and the usual assurance that drawing any awkward conclusions about any of this would be terribly racist. Festive arson, French style: As millions gathered to "celebrate," 1,173 cars quietly transitioned from "private property" to "urban campfire,"...

The Reparations Racket: Why is China Getting a Free Pass on Slavery? By Chris Knight (Florida)

 In the modern political landscape, the word "reparations" has become a central pillar of Western diplomatic discourse. From the Caribbean to sub-Saharan Africa, leaders are increasingly vocal in demanding that Britain and other Western powers pay for the historical sins of slavery and colonialism. The rhetoric is often draped in the language ...

Gun Banning Caused the American Revolution: A History Lesson for Today’s Gun Banners, By Charles Taylor (Florida)

In the annals of American history, the Boston Tea Party often takes centre stage as the spark that ignited the Revolution. We are taught about "no taxation without representation" and the high price of Darjeeling. But if you dig deeper into the actual events of 1774 and 1775, a far more visceral truth emerges: The American Revolution didn't just st...

Curse of 35: China’s Oppressive Policy, By James Reed

 In the competitive landscape of the global economy, few phenomena are as striking, and as cautionary, as China's "Curse of 35." For many white-collar workers in the People's Republic, the 35th birthday is no longer a milestone of mid-career maturity; it is a professional "expiration date." What is the "Curse of 35"? The "Curse of 35" refers t...
