Weekday Reading #11
Remembering Trans Deaths Rightly (The American Conservative) So I decided to research each of that year’s deaths, including by searching publicly available information on local news sites, scouring court records, and calling homicide departments (as necessary). What I found belied the narrative of the LGBT groups—a narrative used to pursue political ends even sympathetic Americans…

Novavax the vaccine for the vaxxine-hesitant
This is my kind of article: Novavax: the good vaccine. It’s not that most of us are in any sense “anti-vaxxers” but lots of us are very reluctant to take any of the currently existing experimental forms now on offer. But there is Novavax which many of us have been looking out for. Who can be…

Daniel Andrews’ Victoria: “a sadistic experiment with unintended consequences”
I hate to dwell on Daniel Andrews but he represents a measure of incompetence and stupidity that will be hard for any future premier to exceed. However, I am drawn to all this again by Nick Cater’s article in The Oz today whose title sets the scene: The tyranny of ineptitude drives more to the…

Here’s a tip, Michael, some of the Aboriginal communities don’t want…

Weekday Reading #10
Martin Lichtmesz on the Dystopic Vaccinator Dictatorship of Austria (eugyppius) Unfortunately, there can be no talk of any “Corona twilight” in Austria right now. Our government, under the leadership of the unelected shadow chancellor Alexander Schallenberg, has now ordered, in rapid succession, an escalating series of “tightened measures,” and their repressive character dwarfs all that…

Melbourne Freedom March, 20 Nov 2021
Here is my perspective of the March on Saturday. I joined the march at roughly 12.15pm on the corner of Russell and Bourke St having parked at QV. Parking was busy. Traders must be loving the numbers coming into the city at the moment in order to protest.

Calling Paul Kelly and Greg Sheridan
Why are supposedly quality journalists so misguided on climate change? Paul Kelly and Greg Sheridan have clearly taken on board the alarmist global warming narrative. Never mind the performance of the hacks, what has gone wrong at the top of the profession and the once-were reputable newspapers? Global warming and the reduction of CO2 emissions…

Where’s the evidence that these vaxxines are actually safe?
From Melbourne’s ‘freedom’ protest fever spreads across the country but I want you to notice this passage in particular. “No matter how much misinformation and propaganda you put out there, Victoria is going to win.” Dr Cumming has appeared regularly at the anti-government protests and has been promoting them online. She railed against the vaccination of…
