The United States has never been so divided
In recent history, the United States has arguably never been so divided — but not in the way you might think. Yes, the country has been split by the culture wars, with their polarising focus on race and gender. But behind the scenes, another conflict has been brewing; shaped by the economics of class, it has created two Americas increasingly in conflict.
An upcoming horror movie based on the ‘Karen’ slur used against white women received heavy criticism this week after a new trailer dropped.
‘Karen’, directed by Coke Daniels, stars Taryn Manning as the titular ‘Karen’ who terrorizes an African-American family – played by Cory Hardrict and Jasmine Burke – that moves into the neighborhood.
Our woke elites feel an overriding contempt for white working-class communities.
Have you noticed that anyone who talks about the problems facing white working-class kids is instantly accused of starting a culture war? Talk about trans kids and the media will be knocking on your door to commission a documentary. Talk about the specific problems facing children of West Indian or Bangladeshi heritage and the chattering classes will be all ears. But so much as mutter the phrase ‘white working-class’ and you’ll be viewed as iffy. Here comes another culture warrior stirring up racial tensions, the right-on will cry. They might even call you racist.
If America is systemically racist, why have millions of blacks from Africa and the Caribbean come to this country over the past 50 years? Why would they and many millions more want to move from all-black societies to a white-dominated, racist one?
It has been confirmed that biological male Laurel Hubbard will be competing in women’s weightlifting at the Tokyo Olympics. It will mark the beginning of the end of women’s sports on the world stage.
Hubbard, a 43-year-old man who began to identify as a woman at the age of 35, will represent New Zealand in Tokyo next month. Hubbard is eleven years older than the recorded age of the next oldest qualifier, American Sarah Robles. Hubbard may not medal, but the reality is that this shouldn’t have happened regardless. Hubbard surely would not have qualified if not for being a biological male.
Google funded research carried out by Wuhan-linked scientist Peter Daszak and his charity for more than a decade, it has been revealed.
The tech giant’s charity arm, Google.org, has repeatedly provided financial backing for research and studies carried out by scandal-hit Daszak and his New York-based EcoHealth Alliance.
The financial ties, which were first reported by The National Pulse, are disclosed in various scientific studies between 2010 and 2018.
DUBAI, United Arab Emirates (AP) — American authorities took down a range of Iran’s state-linked news websites they accused of spreading “disinformation” on Tuesday, a U.S. official said, a move that appeared to be a far-reaching crackdown on Iranian media amid heightened tensions between the two countries.
The official, who spoke on condition of anonymity because the case had not yet been officially announced by the American government, said the U.S. had seized roughly three dozen websites, the majority of which are linked to Iranian disinformation efforts.
A dramatic new video shows the moment a Michigan cop shoots and kills a 19-year-old woman at a Juneteenth parade — and then crumples to the ground in tears.
Authorities said the woman, Briana Sykes, drove up to the cop, who was on traffic duty during the Flint parade on Saturday, and fired at the officer, Fox affiliate WJBK-TV reported.

The country’s military ombudsman has fired broadside at the Liberal government, accusing the defence minister’s office of trying to “exert control” over investigations and ignoring recommendations for change.
Gregory Lick’s blistering criticism is contained in a position paper released Tuesday and was prompted by the ongoing investigations into sexual misconduct in the military.
He is calling for the ombudsman’s office to be made entirely independent, reporting to Parliament, not the minister’s office.
Legal experts from across the globe have drawn up a “historic” definition of ecocide, intended to be adopted by the international criminal court to prosecute the most egregious offences against the environment.
The draft law, unveiled on Tuesday, defines ecocide as “unlawful or wanton acts committed with knowledge that there is a substantial likelihood of severe and widespread or long-term damage to the environment being caused by those acts”.
The Stop Ecocide Foundation initiative comes amid concerns that not enough is being done to tackle the climate and ecological crisis.
Physicists at MIT and SUNY Stony Brook recently announced findings that the total surface area of two black holes was maintained after the two entities merged. While this research was a welcome confirmation of both Stephen Hawking’s work and the theory of general relativity, it failed to address a crucial matter: what were its racial implications?
Some of the core tenets of the “woke” ideology spreading around the country mimic ideas used to justify many of the most horrendous atrocities of the past century, according to several experts.
A recently released documentary exploring the topic, called “Better Left Unsaid,” concludes that the self-identified “radical left” endorses four fundamental “truths” that they “hold to be self-evident,” noting that these tenets have also been used to justify and incite many of the worst massacres of the 20th century.
The first of the four claims is that “the world is best viewed through a group oppression narrative lens.”
“The Washington Post’s Laura Meckler spent three weeks preparing a hit piece against me,” Ruffo said Sunday on Twitter, adding that the newspaper used five “flat-out lies” to smear him. “This is how the media lies.”
The WaPo article, which was published on Saturday, placed Rufo at the center of a Republican push to attack CRT and use it as a political weapon to portray Democrat policies as extreme, scary and anti-American. Meckler attempted to show that Rufo has misled the public about the nature of CRT and has made claims about training materials that go further than the documents that he cites.
Oxford’s oldest student newspaper could be vetted by “sensitivity readers” to stop it publishing “problematic” articles under new plans.
Officials at the Oxford Student Union (Oxford SU) are planning to set up a ‘Student Consultancy of Sensitivity Readers’ who would be elected and paid to check articles across various student newspapers for signs of insensitivity.
There is a “need for better editing” to review journalism from Oxford’s esteemed campus newspaper Cherwell because of “high incidences of insensitive material being published”, students say.
