Today’s news behind the news, aggregated and updated throughout the day.
Storming the beaches of the Culture War, covering the latest Woke Supremacy, Big Brother and other related items.
Featuring occasional commentary from our in-house writers.
What we got was inexplicable: no Hartley Shawcross, Britain’s lead prosecutor, whose opening speech, lasting two days, disputed the idea that the trials were ‘victor’s justice’ or revenge. We got attacks on Britain and Churchill compared unfavourably to Stalin. ‘At least he wasn’t a hypocrite.’ America rather than Germany appeared to be in the dock.
Levin highlighted the recent disaster caused in Afghanistan by Biden and asked, “What has Joe Biden done to America’s national security?”
Enrollment declines are steeper for men than for women across all sectors (declined by 400,000 and 203,000 students, respectively). This trend is especially visible in the community college sector, with male enrollment dropping by 14.4 percent compared to a 6 percent decline in female enrollment. Also, the increase of 44,000 female students (+1 percent) is contrasted with a drop of 90,000 male students (-2.7 percent) in the public four-year institution sector.
COMMENTARY ON THE BELOW ARTICLE: This is a pretty huge story. Hollywood, we know what you are – BrandX.
‘What would it would take to make you happy?’: Rose McGowan accuses Gavin Newsom’s wife of trying to BRIBE her to keep Harvey Weinstein rape allegations quiet, slams BLM and backs Larry Elder in California recall election
COMMENTARY ON THE BELOW ARTICLE: For those readers outside the UK, Bristol is what (I anyway) would describe as a hell hole of far-left neo-Marxist militant radical activism (that’s a mouthful). One of several in the UK in fact.
The excellent UK based Free Speech Union have been involved with the Professor Steven Greer story, in fact I will add the introduction to their post here for further context… and strongly recommend you consider joining the FSU – BrandX.
“We’ve written to Professor Judith Squires, the V-C and Provost of Bristol University, about the University’s mistreatment of Professor Steven Greer, a distinguished human rights lawyer. You can read Prof Greer’s story in the Mail on Sunday, but the short version is he was falsely accused of Islamophobia by some Muslim activists who didn’t like his politics and then exonerated by the University, but the module he teaches every year about Islam, among other things, has now been removed from the syllabus. And the reason he was given by the administrators responsible for this censorship was that they didn’t want the course to attract any more complaints, even though the University concluded the complaints against Prof Greer were completely groundless.”
We probably can conclude that the vote in Arizona was stolen because they had a forensic audit and all of the information we are getting is that there were major problems.
COMMENTARY ON THE BELOW VIDEO: Don’t get me wrong, I’m conscious that China (as Josh Rogin puts it) is militarily expansionist, totalitarian in its politics and economics, externally aggressive, internally repressive and increasingly interfering in democratic societies.
Having said that, they have very much pinned the tail on the donkey here, in identifying the social and cultural metastasis that has increasingly dominated the Western culture. China is cutting it out.
I take issue with the state doing what we, the responsible and vigilant citizenry, ought to be doing. But in the West, although we bear the burden of the responsibility, for the most part we have increasingly lost the power that relates to this. e.g. Parents being isolated from their children for expressing concern when (the more postmodernist side of) transgender ideology sinks it’s fangs into them. For further examples, just keep checking back as we post articles relating to this kind of thing everyday here.
How bizarre is it when when those of us that oppose woke supremacy now seemingly have more in common with with the Chinese Communist Party than we do with Hollywood? At least in this discussion – BrandX.
Dr. Hooman Noorchashm has held positions at the University of Pennsylvania School of Medicine, Harvard Medical School, Thomas Jefferson University Hospital, and the Philadelphia VA Hospital, according to Drugwatch, a consumer advocacy organization of which Noorchashm is a contributor. Noorchashm has also assisted in acquiring grants from the National Institutes of Health, as well as "authored more than 65 articles, abstracts and reviews in peer-reviewed medical journals, including the New England Journal of Medicine, Journal of Immunology, Nature Medicine, American Journal of Transplantation, Critical Care Medicine, and Diabetes."
And in this repetition, she affirms she still lives in the 1990s. It may not be altogether her fault. She is repeatedly interviewed about her book Gender Trouble that was published in the ‘90s, the occasion being the contemporary dominance of the trans movement. And so she opines on what she said in the book. The trouble, though, is that she opines as if what she says is “subversive,” a radical parole in a langue of traditionalism. “We need to rethink the category of woman,” she repeats in her latest interview with the Guardian (September 7th) as if we had not already done far more than that.
