Confessions of a Conservative Atheist
The world’s only one man media empire
Despite the naysayers, the Supreme Court continues to demonstrate a rare independence of thought in our polarized age, issuing several decisions just this month that featured shifting coalitions of conservative and liberal Justices, completely defying any simple categorization as partisan. Progressives, along with some conservatives, have taken up trashing the Supreme Court and recommending all… Continue reading Wait, I thought the Supreme Court was just a bunch of partisan hacks in black robes
Celebrating the declining birthrate as some of have done will not save the planet. It will lead to less human fulfillment, less innovation, a lower standard of living, more loneliness, and a world that most would not want to live in. For years, if not decades, conservatives have suspected that progressives simply don’t like people. … Continue reading Progressives want less people to save the planet
If the President thinks this is a genocide, say it and demand a change in course. If he thinks it’s a just war, but he has a better idea how to fight it, say it. Voting present simply isn’t an option anymore. Earlier this week, the United Nations Security Council passed a resolution calling for… Continue reading Israel: The stain of abstaining at the UN pleases no one
President Clinton isn’t quite a Republican by today’s standards, but he’s much closer to one than the current Democrat Party, and if Democrats still held his positions, or anything like them, there would be broad bipartisan support for any number of major reforms that would benefit the entire country. In yet another common refrain, the… Continue reading Bill Clinton and who the radicals really are
It’s certainly not because we’re brainwashed. It’s because we like what we see after decades of establishment failure and outright lies about immigration, economics, international relations, and American life. It’s yet another common refrain in media circles: President Trump’s supporters are brainwashed in some fashion, beholden only to what he tells them, and unable to… Continue reading Trump and the truth about his supporters
Contrary to the conventional wisdom, President Trump was by far the most active opponent of Russia since Ronald Reagan and three key policy decisions in stark contrast with his predecessors prove it. It’s become a popular refrain in the mainstream media: President Donald Trump was weak in his dealings with Russia, either because Russian President… Continue reading Trump and the truth about Russia
Much like music, a great film can exist purely on an emotional level, as a stream of loosely related and structured consciousness that teases us with symbolism, impenetrable to a complete analysis, and yet filled with meaning all the same. Federico Fellini’s 1963 surrealistic fantasy about a film director struggling with his love life and… Continue reading Fellini’s 8½ and whether or not reality matters in either art or life itself
“There are some aspects of what is going on that remain puzzling,” explained a climate scientist at the National Center for Atmospheric Research. “Climate change means all past analogs are not so reliable,” save when they advance the cause of hysteria, of course. It’s become an unfortunate annual tradition, the same as the holidays themselves… Continue reading A new year means new heights in global warming hysteria
Remember when the Tea Party movement that formed under President Barack Obama was maligned as a racist haven for white supremacy by many of the same people who are now studiously avoiding a discussion of the rampant antisemitism in their midst? In principle, it is possible to be a supporter of Palestine without being an… Continue reading Palestine, Hamas, Israel, and antisemitism: Good faith is hard to find
The simultaneous writers and actors strikes reveal the deplorable truth that Hollywood hotshots make thousands of times more than their less well known counterparts, who can barely afford to feed their families. Now, they want you to pay more rather than them making less. The entertainment world is reeling from back to back strikes that… Continue reading Hollywood hypocrites should practice the socialism they preach
