There are times when two seemingly distant worlds speak to one another with surprising clarity. One such pairing is the economic–philosophical vision of Major C. H. Douglas and the mythopoetic universe of J. R. R. Tolkien. One offers a diagnosis of the moral–economic decay of modern civilisation and a blueprint for its regeneration; the other...
John Leake's latest dispatch (see link below) from the front lines of disillusionment hits like a gut punch from an old ally who's just realized the revolution was a rerun. After years of riding-or-dying for Trump, through impeachments, raids, and election-night nail-biters, he's staring at the Epstein files saga and seeing not a smoking gun, but a...
In the annals of public health, few dogmas have been more fiercely guarded than the CDC's ironclad mantra: "Vaccines do not cause autism." It was the sacred cow of paediatric medicine, trotted out to silence sceptics, fund boosters, and reassure frantic parents. For three decades, it was presented not as a hypothesis, but as gospel, backed by the f...
Billie Eilish, pop priestess of the perpetually aggrieved, recently received a standing ovation from the Left for her economic wisdom: "If you're a billionaire, give your money away." Translation: "I have never created a job, balanced a budget, or read a P&L in my life, but I know exactly how to fix poverty, by confiscating the wealth of people...
Elon Musk has a way of distilling cosmic truths into casual barbs that hit like a Falcon 9 re-entry. His latest zinger, fired off on X in response to Alex Soros's defiant tweet about the Open Society Foundations (OSF) "standing firm" amid Trump administration scrutiny, lands with the precision of a missile: "Can you stop trying to destroy civilizat...
London, 22 November 2025 – Home Secretary Yvette "Hugs Not Hate" Cooper today unveiled the government's bold new policing strategy that finally solves the online-speech epidemic once and for all. Why waste time and money chasing down 10,000 individual offenders every year (see link below), sending actual officers to actual doors because someone in ...
Mark Keenan (link below) just wrote the quietest declaration of war you'll read all year, and it is aimed squarely at the soft totalitarian spirit of our age. His thesis is simple, brutal, and correct: the campaign to "re-educate," "detoxify," and "redefine" masculinity is not about making men kinder or the world gentler. It is about making truth i...
Victor Davis Hanson (link below) just fired a precision-guided missile into the heart of progressive sanctimony, and the explosion is glorious. In one short column he has done what the Left's own internal contradictions have been doing for years: he has made its loudest priests look clownish, exhausted, and increasingly detached from reality. The p...
For at least thirty years the public was sold a comforting fairy tale: a daily glass of red wine was practically medicine. Resveratrol! French paradox! A neat J-shaped curve in every epidemiology textbook showing that light-to-moderate drinkers lived longer and kept their marbles better than teetotallers or lushes. That story is now dead. The autop...
Swirling in the chaotic vortex of climate discourse, where headlines scream apocalypse and policy demands trillions in "green" spending, a new report from the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) lands like a contrarian thunderclap. Titled A Critical Review of Impacts of Greenhouse Gas Emissions on the U.S. Climate, released on July 23, 2025, this 151-p...
There used to be a quiet miracle across rural Germany, Austria, and Scandinavia: little unmanned farm stalls and open fridges by the side of the road. Fresh eggs, homemade jam, bottles of milk. A price list and a cash box. No clerk, no camera, no lock. Just the assumption that the person taking the butter would leave the correct money. It worked fo...
How empires fall is not a mystery of war or conquest; it is a tragedy of the mind. The greatest civilisations in history did not perish beneath the blades of invaders but crumbled from within, eroded by leaders and institutions that lost their grip on reality. "How do empires fall? Not by war, but by unbalanced minds disconnected from reality." The...
A borderless battlefield for expression: in an era where digital platforms transcend national boundaries, the tension between online safety and free speech has escalated into a geopolitical flashpoint. Australia's Online Safety Act (OSA) of 2021, enforced by the eSafety Commissioner Julie Inman Grant, exemplifies this clash. What began as a domesti...
November 14, 2025, in a Berlin briefing that could double as a corporate motivational seminar, German Defence Minister Boris Pistorius assures the nation: "There is no cause for concern, no cause for fear." The occasion? A shiny new coalition bill greenlighting "needs-based" conscription to bulk up the Bundeswehr into Europe's beefiest conventional...
A fresh Ipsos poll drops a quiet bombshell: Sixty-three percent of Britons believe their country was happier fifty years ago, in the gritty groove of 1975, compared to a measly twelve percent who think the sun shines brighter today. On safety, the verdict is even starker, sixty percent say the streets felt secure back when ABBA topped the charts, v...
If you really want to counter the chaos grifters of the political left in the US, then you have to be willing to offer a coherent and consistent plan which dissolves the chaos they thrive on. Planning eases instability. Consistency defeats confusion. Clarity squashes disorder. The public needs to see a comprehensive list of standards, actions and g...
Imagine a world where your next meal could actually protect your brain, stave off dementia, and keep your mind as sharp at 75 as it was at 55. This isn't science fiction, it's the promise of the MIND diet, a scientifically validated approach to preserving cognitive health that is fast becoming the gold standard in brain nutrition. Recent research, ...
Elon Musk isn't just building rockets and EVs – he's sounding the alarm on the one threat that could actually end us: population collapse. "Population collapse due to low birth rates is a much bigger risk to civilization than global warming," he tweeted in 2022, and he's doubled down ever since. In August 2025, he called it a "slow-motion collapse,...
We've long joked about the "zombie scroll" — endless TikToks, Reels, and Shorts hypnotising youth into digital stupor. But a new Griffith University meta-analysis suggests the joke might be closer to reality than we feared. Across 71 studies and nearly 100,000 participants, researchers have found a consistent pattern of cognitive harm from heavy co...
Here I must differ a bit from previous takes on the coming of Civil War 2.0. November 21, 2025, the air in America crackles with a tension thicker than the smoke from Portland's burning ICE vans. Polls scream apocalypse: a June 2025 Rasmussen survey found 41% of Americans – a plurality – now believe a second civil war is "likely within the next dec...
