Communism Is Liberty’s Mortal Enemy

April 23, 2023 By Eileen F. Toplansky In a December 26, 1955 article in Time magazine, George Meany of the AFL-CIO warned Americans that [t]oo many in the free world fail to see the real nature of Communism as the mortal foe of everything that we hold dear, of every moral and spiritual value. Too many are still prisoners of the illusion that Communism is, historically speaking, a progressive system  [or] … extreme liberalism temporarily making bad mistakes. Actually, Communism … is an anti-social system in which there are embedded some of the worst features of savagery, slavery, feudalism and life-sapping exploitation manifested in

American Paralysis And Decline

VICTOR DAVIS HANSON: American Paralysis And Decline OPINION VICTOR DAVIS HANSONCONTRIBUTOR February 29, 20247:01 PM ET “We can bear neither our diseases nor their remedies.” So shrugged the ancient historian Livy (59 B.C –A.D. 17) of the long decline of Roman national character that, in his age, finally ended the Roman Republic. Like a patient whose medicine proves worse than the disease, Livy lamented that the Romans knew that they had become corrupt and lawless. But the very contemplation of the hard medicine needed for restoration — and the furious reaction that would meet the remedy — made it impossible

Eight Startling and Uncomfortable Ways the Democrats emulate the Nazi Party

The Democrat party has been a stain on the nation since its founding in 1828 by a virulently racist president, Andrew Jackson.  It was the party of slavery and the Confederacy, it initiated racial segregation by legislating and brutally enforcing Jim Crow laws.  It unabashedly aligned with and supported the Ku Klux Klan for over nine decades, thus promoting antisemitism, religious persecution and xenophobia.  Over the past 60 years, the Party has embraced and promulgated cultural Marxism which espouses the transformation of traditional American culture and society.  The Party has succeeded in undermining the family structure and religious freedom as well as mainstreaming abortions up to the point

Racism in America Today: A Real or Manufactured Problem?

THOMAS KLINGENSTEIN (SPONSORED) 17 Aug 2023511 The following content is sponsored by author, playwright, and Chair of the Claremont Institute Thomas Klingenstein. While nobody denies that racist people exist all over the world, including in the U.S., racism in America today is, to a very significant degree, a manufactured problem, crafted by woke Leftists in order to overthrow the American way of life. The Left claims there exists an intolerable, all-pervasive system of white oppression and if you disagree, they will destroy you and may even inflict violence. The woke tell us that racism has gotten worse, but this is drivel. As I explain

How to Destroy a People

May 26, 2023 By Jeffrey Folks Twenty years ago, I interviewed a young woman for an entry-level position at the prestigious university where I taught.  I had read the candidate’s Ph.D. thesis, with considerable reservations, and was eager to ask about her scholarly interests.  She stated that she followed the approach called “critical theory” and that her interest was limited to whatever was abnormal, perverse, and antagonistic.  She despised everything that was conventional, decent, or good. As a person who had devoted his entire life to promoting what was conventional, decent, and good, I was taken aback.  Not that I was entirely surprised.  Critical theory, with

Fiddling America Away

We fixate only on the irrelevant that we think we can address while ignoring the existential we know we no longer can solve. By Victor Davis Hanson April 10, 2023 The last few weeks, the world had been writing off the United States as either crazy or irrelevant as it watches America cannibalize itself. Friends tremble at our sudden decline. Enemies rejoice. Neutrals make the necessary adjustments to join the ascendant non-American side. The symptoms of our decline abroad appear everywhere.

Merriam-Webster Word of the Year: ‘Gaslighting’

 ‘Gaslighting’ 17 Drew Angerer / Getty JOEL B. POLLAK 28 Nov 202253 2:27 The Merriam-Webster dictionary has declared “gaslighting” to be the word of the year for 2022, as searches for the term skyrocketed — though there was no specific incident or usage of the word to spark the sudden interest. The term refers to the practice of intentionally deceiving someone by telling them that the state of the world is not what they perceive it to be. The term is used often in online political debates to accuse opponents of lying. But “gaslighting” goes beyond lying. To carry out

They may witness things over the next five months that once would have seemed unimaginable. Until the Ukrainian conflict, we had never witnessed a major land war inside Europe directly involving a nuclear power. In desperation, Russia’s impaired and unhinged leader, Russian President Vladimir Putin, now talks trash about the likelihood of nuclear war. A 79-year-old President Joe Biden bellows back that his war-losing nuclear adversary is a murderer, a war criminal, and a butcher who should be removed from power. After

The Only Culture War That Truly Matters

COMMENTARY.By Gonzalo SchwarzJanuary 12, 2022AP Photo/Carolyn Kaster The term “culture war” has been a staple of American politics and public debates for decades, the latest iterations framed by the likes of abortion, marriage equality, and climate change. However, such issues don’t motivate voters as much as people on the extremes tend to believe. You saw it in Virginia’s recent election, with exit polls showing that 34% of voters say the economy/jobs is the most important issue facing the state. Education is the second-most important issue, and with it the handling of the COVID-19 pandemic that closed schools — contrary to the wishes of

10 traits to tell good from evil

December 6, 2020 By Steve Bigler Lately I’ve been thinking about defining characteristics of good and evil.  I am a person of faith, so initially I might have been tempted to say simply that good adheres to the commandments of God, or at least to the tenets of a religion.  But that’s too easy.  First of all, not everyone believes in God.  In addition, concepts of God vary widely.  And finally, I’m not sure all religions are uniformly good! So I pondered, “What if I were not a person of faith?  What if I didn’t belong to any religion at all?  Surely, I’d still recognize that some principles

Why Identity Politics’ Speech Controls Will Cancel Self-Government If We Don’t Resist

Only freedom of speech can preserve republican self-government, and only it can cool the fanatical hatreds and false theories underlying identity politics. By Arthur MilikhDECEMBER 3, 2020 Much evidence suggests that freedom of speech may be banned in the coming years under the guise of regulating “hate speech.” Many on the left who demand and welcome this development do not foresee the broad consequences of their actions. Nor do many defenders of free speech sufficiently examine the left’s reasons for banning it. Just in the past few years, U.S. senators proposed to outlaw words they deem offensive; New York City attempted to fine residents $250,000 if

What We Must Believe to Believe Biden Won

This is a war against evil and for national survival, nothing less.

The Difficult Way Forward By Tom Mayer It used to be said that America was fortunate in that its politics were played between the 40-yard lines: that we agreed on the most important things and argued over the details within a small range of policies. That hasn’t been true for many years, the playing field being stretched as far as it can go. But the problem now is not that the playing field has expanded, the game itself has changed. The object of the game as well as the rules, are practiced very differently by the two sides. Republicans are still

Want More Racism? Black Lives Matter Is How You Get More Racism

By I&I Editorial Board Sep. 6 2020 Rather than improve race relations, the Black Lives Matter movement has set them back a half-century. Nothing good will come of the bullying, violence and baseless accusations that are filling the news cycle. Just before President Donald Trump was to start his fourth year in the White House, the state of race relations, according to Gallup, had increased 14 percentage points since he took office. It was an achievement “any president after three years would want to claim, particularly President Obama,” said a CBS reporter. One would have thought that race relations would have

The Abusive Relationship Between White Guilt and Black Power

The harmless, lovable little fuzzball operating with talent on loan from God. His ideological opponents use slightly different language. The Daily Beast has called Limbaugh a “racist radio pioneer.” A 2012 CNN essay compared him to Josef Goebbels and asked the FCC to punish radio stations airing his program.

The illusion of intelligence of the imperious ‘woke’ Left

Ron Hart The three-month trial membership in “wokeness” is up, and America does not want to subscribe. With the monomaniacal desire to get rid of Trump, the leftist millennial “woke” crowd has overplayed its manufactured grievances. Some have become so “woke,” they can’t sleep. It turns out, most Americans do not like these whiny incoherent layabouts who are bent on making us bow to their whimsy.

Are Leftists Literally Addicted To Hatred?

July 28, 2020 By Don Rosenberg Enthusiasm and passion have been a hallmark of political action over all of history.  Stating something strongly and with conviction gets attention and almost forces people to listen.  But the last three years have seen political passion turn into an explosion of hatred and anger like never before.  Why is this? Psychologists say that anger arises when we have an unmet demand.  Some angry reactions are reasonable, such as objecting to bad service at an expensive restaurant, or protesting against an injustice, but others are irrational, such as shooting a gun at someone who

What Causes White Guilt

July 6, 2020 By John Eidson “I’m sorry I was born white and privileged. It disgusts me. And I feel so much shame.” So tweeted virtue-signaling Hollywood actress Rosanna Arquette, whose three-sentence message had one purpose: to help the political party she supports mainstream the absurd idea that white people should be ashamed of their skin color and, by extension, ashamed of their predominately white country. Hollywood stars are not the only ones pushing white privilege ideology.  Marxist teachers and professors in our universities and public schools have systematically burdened millions of young white minds with guilt over the accident of

How to destroy America from within

by Gary Bauer | July 04, 2020 06:00 AM  What would you do if you wanted to destroy America? The first thing you would do is take control of the education system and teach children that they are living in an evil country. Then you would undermine the police, the military, and law enforcement. You’d use every opportunity you can to divide people by race, religion, and class. You would stoke feelings of grievance regardless of how much progress was being made to promote racial reconciliation and equal opportunity. You would attack churches, too. You’d teach children that there is no God,

Fixing College Corruption

Let’s first let’s examine what might be the root of academic corruption, suggested by the title of a recent study, “Academic Grievance Studies and the Corruption of Scholarship.” The study was done by Areo, an opinion and analysis digital magazine. By the way, Areo is short for Areopagitica, a speech delivered by John Milton in defense of free speech. Authors Helen Pluckrose, James A. Lindsay and Peter Boghossian say that something has gone

Rights Versus Wishes

That claim comes from Democrats and Republicans and liberals and conservatives. It is not just a health care right that people claim. There are “rights” to decent housing, decent food, a decent job and prescription drugs. In a free and moral society, do people have these rights? Let’s begin by asking ourselves: What is a right? In the standard usage of the term, a “right” is something that exists simultaneously among people.

Colleges Dupe Parents and Taxpayers

Colleges have been around for centuries. College students have also been around for centuries. Yet, college administrators assume that today’s students have needs that were unknown to their predecessors. Those needs include diversity and equity personnel, with massive budgets to accommodate.

The University of Michigan currently employs a diversity staff of 93 full-time diversity administrators, officers, directors, vice provosts, deans, consultants, specialists, investigators, managers, executive assistants, administrative assistants, analysts and coordinators.

Universities Breed Anger, Ignorance, and Ingratitude

by Vivtor Davis Hanson – October 22, 2019 6:30 AM In turning out woke and broke graduates, they have a lot to answer for. What do widely diverse crises such as declining demography, increasing indebtedness, Generation Z’s indifference to religion and patriotism, static rates of home ownership, and a national epidemic of ignorance about American history and traditions all have in common?

Undermining America

Walter E. Williams | Posted: Oct 25, 2017 12:01 AM   Our nation’s leftist progressives have long sought to undermine the American values expressed in our Declaration of Independence and Constitution. Though typical Democrats and Republicans do not have this leftist hate for our nation, they have been willing accomplices in undermining the most basic value the Founding Fathers sought to promote — limited government. Leftists have had their greatest successes in undermining American values on the nation’s college campuses. Derelict and dishonest college administrators, professors and boards of trustees have given them carte blanche. Let’s look at some of
