If it is yet not universally known, it is certainly increasingly understood by a large segment of society that academia peddles simplistic ideologies, luxury beliefs, and outright falsehoods. Gender ideology is an obvious house built upon sand, yet no administrator has the courage to wash this harmful ideology away.
The root of the problem is Black Studies departments in universities, alongside Negro Worship. In the 1960s, universities across the United States organized Black Studies departments.

America’s Decline: The Education of a Conservative
Sussex, England: Historical Review Press, 2006
If there is anything that shows the state of the Dispossessed Majority and the Great Replacement as it existed in the early twentieth century it is Woodrow Wilson’s boyhood home in Staunton, Virginia.

Student loan forgiveness has been in the headlines quite a bit lately. One of the articles is “Warren urges Biden to cancel student loan debt before midterms” by CBS News. Although Pocahontas is a legislator and surely must be aware of the separation of powers doctrine, she curiously takes the position that the student loans may be erased if Resident Bidet decrees it so.

This book gives a good survey of the history, culture, and ideas of key writers of various sorts in Ancient Greece. (more…)

Fighting racism requires knowing what it is — not an easy task . . . [R]acism is a Schimpfwort: a term with pejorative connotations, whose very use inevitably tends to be more instrumental than descriptive. To call someone a racist, even if the charge is intellectually dishonest, can be a useful tactic, either in successfully paralyzing or in casting enough suspicion as to curtail credibility. — Alain de Benoist, “What is Racism?” (more…)
