BY DOMINIC WIGHTMAN To combat ‘wokeness’, one must first define it. One should assess levels of wokeness based on criteria that highlight divisive factors, ideological rigidity, and rejection of open dialogue, with the intention of identifying these traits as problematic. Otherwise, you’re merely pinning jelly to a wall. Below, as a helpful aid to DOGE, I have created the Wightman Wokeness Valuator (WWV)*. New DOGE … Continue reading Spiking Wokeness
BY STEWART SLATER Fifty-five years ago this week, man went to the moon for the first time in the culmination of a project started seven years earlier by President Kennedy. But if Apollo Eleven was the signature achievement of that decade’s techno-optimism, it was not alone for in the same year that JFK made his speech, Britain and France signed the agreement to build Concorde, … Continue reading The Politics of Futures Past

The answer might well be found in metaphysics, which the 13th Century theologian Saint … Continue reading Speciesist Busted
BY DANIEL JUPP The Twitter Files prove that corporations, intelligence agencies and the Democrats conspired to rig an election. The Biden team instructed that a particular story be squashed, and it was. They gave lists of individuals and organisations to suppress, and these lists were acted on.

BY PATRICK FAGAN Deep in the darkness of the Amazon rainforest, there is a monster known as the zombie-ant fungus.
