It’s Demons

Recent interactions on Twitter made me think it's time for a reminder about why we need the Witch Test, and how to apply it. In all the years I've run this blog, nothing I've written has galled the Death Cult more than my observation that their heretical religion is informed…

Rational Motives

Reader Andrew Philips comments on a recent post: You’ve cautioned us against ascribing rational motives to the folks who are running things right now, so I won’t. Who knows if any of them believed all the things they said about angry white men, domestic terrorism, white supremacy, institutional racism, or…

Hired Gun

The US military has been having meeting enlistment quotas these past few years. The government's response to the virus scare deserves its share of the blame.

The Last Movie Star

Conquest of the Magic Kingdom

The white pills keep on coming this week. The latest wonder is the unprecedented spectacle of Republicans wielding the power voters gave them to punish their enemies. Florida’s Republican-controlled legislature passed a measure to strip Walt Disney Co. of its self-governance privileges in the state, escalating a feud between Governor…

Netflix Is Kill

It turns out that the public's tolerance for degenerate propaganda has limits after all. Shares in Netflix have slumped by 35% after it revealed a sharp drop in subscribers and warned millions more are set to quit the streaming service. It wiped more than $50bn off the firm's market value…
