Speeches by supporters of assisted suicide always include a big shout-out for people with disabilities. Hey, guys, you’re top on our list of favs; we’re just working out the delicate balance against individual rights. Just hang in there; we love youse all. Which, translated, means that the fears of people with disabilities are going to be […]
Claire Cohen describes her experience as ‘the first journalist to be granted access’ to a ‘state-of-the-art’ ‘brand new abortion clinic’ – ‘shiny, new Fairview Heights’, a ‘“mega”-facility’ soon to open in Illinois, Missouri; taking part in a ‘“mock clinic”’ as fictitious ‘patient’ Gayle Test, who is ‘31, pregnant but just not ready to start a […]
If it weren’t so weird, the Extinction Rebellion would be hilarious. Watching a bunch of entitled middle class morons who are convinced that they have insider knowledge of our imminent demise is comical. But once you get a group of brainless, time rich hysterics from a foliage wearing death cult together in one place, things […]
How the Church’s newest saint foresaw our irreligious age.
It has been alleged by an Italian journalist who is both an atheist and a friend of Pope Francis that the Pope told him that he does not believe that Jesus Christ is divine. Dr. Eugenio Scalfari, a 95-year-old who has regularly interviewed the Pope in the past, wrote in his column in Italy’s La […]
The left’s embrace of climate change as a central part of its platform is in some ways a curious marriage. There has always been a pastoral rural element on the left which was suspicious of growth, but that tended to be either anarchist or agrarian populist in nature. The Marxist oriented or originated left has […]
There isn’t a lot to say about this budget in terms of income taxes, which at the end of the day is all that most normal people really care about. You should feel sorry for the poor guys over at the Irish Times and the Irish Independent who have to write six-page budget supplements for […]
A resolution of the European Parliament recognizes that the two totalitarian regimes of the 20th century were twin in crimes against humanity. Someone needs to tell Beijing.
Isn’t it ironic that those who would speak so passionately against fascists appear to think it’s acceptable to engage in violence to suppress views they disagree with? When I first saw the footage of National Party Leader, Justin Barrett, dripping with vanilla milkshake as he held a banner that read “Ireland belongs to the Irish”, […]
Monday sees the beginning of a week in which Extinction Rebellion is threatening to close down parts of Dublin city centre. If successful, it will lead to great inconvenience for people travelling to work, school, hospital, the pub, or whatever else they may wish to do on whatever particular day these narcissists choose to impose […]
The veritable nail has been hammered into the coffin of Irish TV comedy with RTE’s newest attempt to pander to the cultural Zeitgeist. If you haven’t seen ‘Comedy Showcase’, don’t bother. It’s dreadful. After watching one clip of ‘Bump’ I couldn’t help but wonder- what the hell happened in the seven years since The Savage […]
In today’s sex-soaked media, it was gratifying to see a leading champion of unrestricted sexual freedom, the New York Times, going bonkers about the wickedness of pornography. The headline summarises its graphic, scrupulously researched and highly disturbing article: “The Internet Is Overrun With Images of Child Sexual Abuse. What Went Wrong?” The figures it cites are […]
