Historians Need Not Apply
At the intersection of academia and wokery lies academentia. I have one quibble with Hinderaker. He writes, But the phenomenon at work here–a huge cadre of well-educated people who think they are entitled to make good money, be treated with deference, and play a significant role in public life, but who in fact are not…

Will a Perfect Storm Soon be upon us?
Anthony Flood thinks so. Here is how his piece begins: The dictionary defines a perfect storm as an “unusual combination of events or things that produce an unusually bad or powerful result.” The latter, as I see it, is life as we’ve become accustomed to enjoying it. Four years ago, I stated my grounds . . .…

Leftists Love Criminals
You will never understand the Left until you understand that they reliably take the side of criminals, who comprise their clientele and path to power, over the law-abiding. And with lefties it is always about power and control, first, foremost, and forever. Here we read about a 78-year-old Englishman who, in defending himself against a screwdriver-wielding…

Who Are These Hamas Supporters?
This just in from Tony Flood: "From the river to the sea, Palestine will be free!” chant the useful idiots at elite institutions and parades in the West. Who are these people? Atheists who support theocratic lunatics, democrats who endorse medieval tyrants, feminists who defend misogynists who parade with the desecrated corpses of women, gays who…

Health Equity?
Well, why not? Students in their first year of medical school typically learn what a healthy body looks like and how to keep it that way. At the University of California, Los Angeles, they learn that "fatphobia is medicine’s status quo" and that weight loss is a "hopeless endeavor." Those are two of the more…

The Intifada Comes to America
Well, what did you expect? Intifada refers specifically to two separate uprisings of Palestinians in Gaza and the West Bank over the past four decades, but more broadly, it pertains to the continued resistance of the Palestinians to the existence of Israel. When they shout “Death to Israel,” they mean it. It should be a…

Quotations from Chairman Maher
Christopher Rufo has her number. The new CEO of NPR, then, is a left-wing ideologue who supports wide-scale censorship and considers the First Amendment an impediment to her campaign to sanitize the world of wrong opinions. Maher is no aberration. She is part of a rising cohort of affluent, left-wing, female managers who dominate the…

Signposts on the Way to the Insane Asylum
Looting is shopping without money. The 2022 riots were peaceful. The border is secure. Trespassing is insurrection. Dissent is hate. Free speech is hate speech. Barring candidates from the ballot is democratic. Abortion is health care. 'Migrants' are newcomers. The only purpose of guns is to kill people. Math is racist. There is no 'migrant'…

Journalism is Dead!
When Bill O'Reilly said as much years ago I thought he was exaggerating. It is certainly no exaggeration now, if it is lamestream, 'woke'-captured, Democrat shill outlets such as National Public Radio (NPR) and the Washington Post (WaPo) we are talking about. Here: But we can thank Uri Berliner, a senior business editor at NPR,…

Sabotage Anyone?
Should a state university add "How to Blow Up a Pipeline" to its curriculum? This is an undoubtedly interesting time to be alive. How could anyone be bored? Should I rename my Academia category, Academentia? Demented POTUS, demented polity. Madness spreads and the fish stinks from the head. Update (3:39 pm): More academentia at UCLA…
