Is no theory as misleading as the wrong theory?
In an address I heard by the head of a theological college recently, he spoke of how people have come to believe in conspiracy theories, citing three: the existence of lizard people, the existence of a deep state, and the belief that SARS-CoV2 does not exist.
Bias to the people
There are many examples of the way that the modern cult of “victimhood” produces evils in today’s society. One very current instance is the trend, newly arrived in the UK from America, for black mobs to to rampage through shopping centres inspired by some idea that looting is OK if you’re in an oppressed minority group. A second is the inability of the State to deal with male gangsters with guns, newly arrived in the UK from Albania in small boats, on the basis that there is no such thing as an illegal immigrant. A third is the abject apology of the Pope for the murder and mass-graves of First … Continue reading

Evil, King Arthur and Oliver’s army
The Scottish archaeology and history presenter Neil Oliver got “red-pilled,” largely it appears through dialogues with Mike Graham on Talk Radio during COVID. There is, as we know, no going back once one sees behind the curtain, so in his own cliche (always amusing to my wife and me) the process has “changed Neil Oliverr forr everr.”

Psychology of terminal diagnosis of a civilization
The unusual (and more or less simultaneous) outbreaks of violence at both the recent Notting Hill Carnival and the Reading Festival made me wonder if there is some particular sociological significance to it. This is especially so since other episodes of street violence and looting, including one in Oxford Street, have occurred in recent weeks, although they were little reported.

Ask not what your country can do for you…
Since the 2008 crash ordinary people in this country have seen a steady, and now a sudden drop, in real economic prosperity. It began as extra taxation was laid on them so that they might save the banks, which (if Black Rock is anything to go by) have now gone on to take over the world by the same scams that led to the crash in the first place.

Restoring the nations
An important post by Alexander Mercouris describes important speeches by both President Putin and Defence Minister Shoigu in Moscow. As the title, Putin, Shoigu Pitch Russia as Main Opponent of Globalisation indicates, the Russian Government is now pitching itself squarely against the globalisation pushed by the WEF and the ever-mysterious “them,” which so many of us have come to see as a major threat, if not an end-times climax to history.

Hard a’starboard – Full Astern. Crunch.
I have a feeling there will be many comparisons to the sinking of the Titanic once Britain hits the ice this winter (together with most western nations, only maybe they are not so connected to the Titanic mythology). Today the official inflation figure enters double digits, wiping out, according to the Telegraph, 16 years of pay growth – which is saying something given the below-inflation rises for most workers since 2008.

Black is always white for a reason
The characteristic thing about the Ukraine war – and indeed what many of us have noticed in the last two years or so over every new officially engendered panic – is that our State propaganda has moved from putting a particular spin on the facts to flooding the media with the diametric opposite of the facts.

When the law becomes a tool of the State
An English friend in the US has reminded me of the current case of the journalist Graham Phillips, an English citizen journalist who has been reporting from Donbas since 2014, but who has now been put under anti-Russian sanctions by our government. He interviews the wrong people, and they say the wrong things, as far as our official narrative is concerned. This means his bank assets can all be seized, together with any residence he owns in England.

When is a skeptic not a skeptic?
An article in the Daily Skeptic recently was by an Australian who had, before COVID, classed himself as a “skeptic,” contributing to websites pouring scorn on pseudoscience, and so on, as compared to Proper Science. The article expressed his disillusion with the way that science, and in particular medical science, got subverted during the pandemic. A common tale, you’ll agree.
