For you, brothers and sisters, became imitators of the churches of God in Christ Jesus that are in Judea, for you suffered the same things from your own compatriots as they did from the Jews, who killed both the Lord Jesus and the prophets, and drove us out; they displease God and oppose everyone by hindering us from speaking to the Gentiles so that they may be saved.

Hunt for anti-Australian extremists who allegedly defaced Captain Cook statue

Police in Sydney have released CCTV footage as part of their investigation into the vandalism of a statue of Captain Cook ahead of Australia Day.

The statue in Randwick was defaced with red paint and had pieces broken off at about 4am on January 24, and was one of a number of memorials around the country damaged or destroyed by anti-Australian far-left extremists in the lead-up to the national day.

NSW Police have now released CCTV of two people – a man and a woman – they believe may be able to assist with enquiries.

“The man seen in the CCTV is described as wearing a black jacket, a black t-shirt with a logo on it, dark pants, black sneakers, and black hair,” police said.

“The woman in the images is described as wearing a green/grey jacket, black pants and thongs, with brown hair.”

Australia’s leading Anglo-Celtic advocacy group the British Australian Community, which has documented more than 40 vandalism attacks on Australian monuments as part of its Name Back campaign, slammed the attack on the Randwick statue.

“It’s not just disgusting Anglophobic vandalism, it’s also the oldest statue of Captain Cook in Australia. There’s also an amazing story behind how it came to be,” the BAC wrote on X.

After the statue was vandalised BAC President Harry Richardson wrote an open letter to the country’s police ministers asking for a dedicated police guard to protect prominent monuments in the lead-up to Australia Day.

“The British Australian Community is concerned that continuing ambivalence to the desecration of our monuments sends a signal to politically-motivated extremists that not only are the physical monuments to Australia’s British heritage open targets for ongoing attack, but also that Australia’s British-descended population are similarly ripe targets for attack,” he wrote.

“The British Australian Community thanks police forces nationwide for their indefatigable work protecting our communities and hopes our political representatives will do the right thing and mount a defence of our nation’s British heritage.”

No arrests have been made over the incident, and police in Victoria are yet to make arrests over the vandalism of 20 bronze busts of Australian prime ministers in Ballarat, the defacing of Melbourne’s Queen Victoria Memorial, an Anzac memorial and a statue of John Batman.

Chinese migration agent serial rapist wants sentence slashed due to ‘sex disorder’ diagnosis

A Chinese serial rapist who drugged, sexually assaulted and filmed at least 15 sleeping women in Melbourne is trying to get his sentence slashed due to a supposed sex disorder.

Migration agent Xiaodong “Frank” Hu, 39, who holds both Chinese and Australian passports, was jailed for a maximum 29 years – the longest sentence for sexual offending in Victoria’s history – in May, 2023, for his attacks on seven women at his Collins Street office.

Most of his victims were young women on student visas on their first day at work, and analysis of the married father-of-two’s phone found 1949 photos and 232 videos of him drugging and raping 15 different victims, eight more than he was convicted for, and police believe that could be just the “tip of the iceberg”.

But Hu will appeal the sentence next month, and is planning to argue that it was manifestly excessive, as his so-called somnophilic disorder – a sexual interest in a person who is unconscious – was not fairly taken into account, The Herald Sun reported.

According to sentencing documents, consultant psychiatrist Dr Adam Deacon said in a report tendered to the court that Hu told him he developed a “fetish” for sleeping and unconscious women.

“Hu reported that the stimulus to his decision to continue engaging in the conduct of administering soporific medications was in two interrelated, but mutually exclusive parts,” the report read.

“He reported that he developed an attraction to women sleeping, but this then extended to him being deviantly sexually aroused by the same visual stimulus. The
repetitive nature of his sexual misconduct likely precipitated and perpetuated the development of a specific sexual fetish consistent with somnophilia.”

Hu’s barrister Chris Terry then argued that the “rare and unusual disorder” made his client an “unsuitable vehicle for general deterrence” and that it impaired Hu’s ability to “make calm and rational choices”.

But County Court judge Trevor Wraight QC rejected the defence’s arguments, saying Hu’s offending was not limited to a single occasion, his conduct was “cold, calculated and repetitive”, and that it involved “considerable planning, multiple victims and extended over a number of years”.

“Thus, your offending on one view, demonstrates very calm and rational conduct,” he said in sentencing.

Hu will also argue in his appeal that not enough weight was given to his early guilty plea.

The Melbourne-based immigration agent uploaded photos and videos of the rapes to a Chinese website, and was eventually caught when one of his victims became suspicious, found the site in his browser history and discovered photos of herself and another one of Hu’s employees on his profile.

In a police interview he admitted having sex with the woman, but claimed she fell asleep midway through and said: “When she fall asleep it doesn’t mean stop.” He also accused her of lying before eventually pleading guilty.

Sudanese criminals charged with visa breaches after immigration detention release

Five Sudanese criminals were charged with with alleged visa breaches in January alone, along with an Iranian and a man from Myanmar, after being released from immigration detention by Australia’s left-wing Labor government.

On January 16 a Sudan-born man, 38, was charged with 14 counts of failing to comply with his visa-mandated curfew conditions, five days later a Sudanese man, 46, was charged with two counts of the same offence, and two days after that another Sudan-born man, 33, was charged with three counts, all in Melbourne.

Then on January 29 a Sudanese man, 37, was charged with failing to comply with his visa-mandated reporting conditions in Brisbane, and on January 31 a Sudan-born man, 29, was charged with 12 counts of failing to comply with his curfew conditions in Sydney.

On January 3 an Iran-born man, 43, was charged with allegedly refusing to wear an electronic monitoring device, and on January 31 a Myanmar-born man was charged with failing to comply with one of his visa-mandated conditions – contacting the victim of an offence – in Logan, Queensland.

Another Iranian man was charged in Perth last week after allegedly failing to maintain his monitoring device, and in December another Sudanese man and an Afghanistan-born man were charged with allegedly failing to comply with their curfew conditions.

The foreign-born criminals who were refusing to be deported were all released from immigration detention after the High Court ruled in 2023 that a “stateless” Rohingya child rapist could not be detained indefinitely.

Despite serving sentences of 12 months or more, mainly for violent offences, 224 non-citizens have been allowed onto the streets since the decision, with about 150 subject to electronic monitoring and 130 to curfews as of October 2024.

Last month it was revealed that a Sudanese refugee member of Melbourne’s notorious Apex African gang had been charged with new offences, while in May last year a Sudanese refugee who had his visa cancellation overturned was charged with murdering another African man in Brisbane.

Another Sudanese man avoided deportation despite a long history of knife crime, car theft, serious driving offences, restraining order breaches, stalking and domestic violence, because he now considers himself Aboriginal like his partner (who he was convicted of attacking).

But in October last year left-wing lawyers launched a new class action seeking to expand the High Court ruling to cover all South Sudanese refugees, arguing that they are in legal limbo, which could see 400 violent criminal immigrants set free.

The lead plaintiff in the case has 80 convictions over 18 court appearances between 2009 and 2016, including more than 20 for violence and five more for family violence.

Napoleon: Then and Now

Napoleon: Then and Now
by Thomas Harrington at Brownstone Institute

As someone who sees Napoleon as one of history’s more prodigious and transformative figures (notice I didn’t say angelic or deeply moral), I was pleased to hear that Ridley Scott had recently directed a biopic on the man. 

As you would expect from a Ridley Scott movie, the war scenes are sumptuously reconstructed, as are the costumes and furniture in the indoor scenes. Joaquin Phoenix is his usual excellent self in his role as what we are led to believe was a deeply insecure Napoleon. 

But if you are hoping you might learn something about broader historical dynamics of the era when Napoleon stood astride the European world that just might help us better understand our current historical circumstance, this film is not terribly helpful. 

And that’s a shame, because there is much that our elites, and indeed all of us, could learn from the study of both the Corsican general’s hyper-charged march across Europe in the years between 1796 and 1815 as well as its considerable aftermath in the cultures of southern, central, and eastern Europe. 

Though today it generally gets lost amidst discussions of his stature and the effects it had on his psyche and/or his tempestuous relationship with his wife Josephine (see Ridley Scott’s Napoleon above) Napoleon arguably changed Europe more, and in more fundamental ways, than anyone else in modern history. 

To see him as a mere dictatorial marauder who sacked and stole from the many places he conquered and sent the booty back to the Louvre (something he definitely was and definitely did), is, in my view, to commit an enormous error of interpretation. 

Why? 

Because he was the first truly ideological (as opposed to religiously-inspired) marauder in history; that is, a person who sincerely sought to share the core democratic ideals of the French Revolution with the other peoples of Europe. 

And just as the Spaniards and the Portuguese imposed their program of Catholicism on the cultures of today’s Central and South America, Napoleon sought to impose the secular ideals of the French Revolution on the societies he conquered in his rampage across Europe. And they took at least a partial root in many places. 

It is, for example, impossible to speak about the sprouting of democratic ideals in Spain or Italy and many other places without taking into account the enormous, some would argue foundational, role of the Napoleonic invasions in these processes. The same could be said about the sprouting or rekindling of the idea of national sovereignty in places like Slovenia or Poland. 

And then there’s the emancipation of the Jews. In each country he entered, he freed Jews from their ghettos and abolished any remnants of the Inquisition while investing them with the same rights to liberty, fraternity, and equality that he theoretically granted to all others in the societies he came to dominate. 

Moreover, in those places where Catholicism had exercised a de facto monopoly on religious practice, he gave his sanction to long-suppressed attempts to promote Protestantism and Masonry. 

Wherever he went, he also left behind small but highly influential cells of in-country followers, usually from the educated classes, who viewed the pursuit of French-style “universal” rights as their new guiding star, and the task of sharing these purportedly advanced ideas with their less educated countryman as both a right and a duty. 

But, of course, not everyone in these invaded cultures felt they needed improving with new, supposedly universal, ideas made in Paris. These probable populational majorities liked their own customs, their own languages, and their own culturally influenced ways of interpreting reality. And perhaps most of all, they did not appreciate that this “help” from their French “betters” and their native elite accomplices was being offered to them at the point of a bayonet. Indeed, who, other than people lacking self-esteem, would? 

And so they fought back. While Napoleon was largely able to subdue insurgents across the Germanic European center and the Italian peninsula, regions characterized by the existence of numerous small semi-independent polities, his attempts at domination eventually ran aground Spain and Russia, two large countries where, not coincidentally in my view, the cause of national unity had long been deeply entwined with institutionalized religious belief. 

If Rome was the beating heart of Catholicism, Spain had from the late 1400s onward been its well-armored bodyguard. Similarly Russia, with its concept of Moscow and the “Third Rome,” viewed itself as the protector and would-be avenger of an orthodox Constantinople it saw as being unjustly sentenced to a life under Ottoman Muslim rule.

Though Napoleon was finally stopped in Waterloo in 1815 and was sent off to the South Atlantic to die in exile, his influence on European affairs would, however, be felt for many years to come. 

This was the case most obviously in France where his son (Napoleon II), very briefly and basically in name only, and his nephew (Napoleon III) in a much more fundamental and substantial way, would follow him as leaders of the country. He had also ensured his figure and ideological outlook would not soon be forgotten by arranging a number of marriages between members of his extended family and important noble houses across the continent. 

But probably his most important legacy was the reaction it provoked among the educated classes, and eventually, the masses in the ostensibly (see below) German-speaking principalities that had most suffered under the onslaught of his Grande Armée

Thanks to the unfortunate late-19th and early 20th-century invention of Political Science—a discipline largely designed by Anglo-Saxon scholars near the centers of imperial power to wrest political events from their historical and cultural contexts in order to provide those same centers of power with hygienic-sounding rationales for their campaigns of pillage and terror—most mainstream analyses of movements of national identity today tend to center on the acts and maneuvers of recognizably “political” actors. 

To approach the appearance and consolidation of nationalist movements through the often presentist frames developed by these esteemed “scientists” is akin to analyzing the process of wine-making only from the point of bottling onward. 

To truly understand the appearance of the nationalist movements that emerged in central Europe, and subsequently to the continent’s eastern and southwestern sectors in the middle years of the 19th century, we must go back and study their cultural roots. And that means engaging with something that I suspect many Americans see as a mere subsection of the syllabus for a survey course in Western literature or Western art: Romanticism.

Yes, Romanticism is a very identifiable form of making literature and art. But it did not emerge in a historical vacuum. 

Rather, it was derived from the sense among many central Europeans that, for all of its putative benefits, the French Revolution—rooted in schemes of Enlightenment reasoning that were said to be necessary and useful to all of the men and women of the world—had made their lives were less humanly rich than before. 

This sense of alienation was enhanced by the fact, mentioned above, that these supposedly universal values arrived at the doorstep of most people bearing universally frightening French muskets and cannons. 

The philosophers were among the first to react. They were followed by the artists, some of whom, like Goethe, had been wary of the hyper-rationality of the French-dominated Enlightenment well in advance of its martial instrumentalization by Napoleon. 

What bound the many creators from philosophy (e.g. Herder and Fichte) literature, history (e.g. the Brothers Grimm, Arndt and Von Kleist), pictorial art (Caspar David Friedrich), and music (Beethoven, Schumann, and Wagner) was their generalized exaltation of subjective feelings and the uniqueness of particular landscapes, indigenous linguistic codes, and local customs. 

In time, however, these intellectual and esthetic defenses of local, generally Germanic ways of living and seeing the world seeped down to the popular level. And on the Austrian side of the Germanic space, this meant that it was seeping down to people who were often not Germanic at all in language or culture. 

In other words, as the 19th century progressed, the Germanic reaction against French-inflected Enlightenment ideals, gave birth, in turn, to a set of revolts by various Slavic, Italian, and Magyar-speaking peoples against what they saw as the heavy-handedness of the German-speakers who dominated the Austrian Empire’s key centers of power. These uprisings culminated in the wave of revolutions in 1848 where, in another seeming paradox, those seeking greater indigenous power often melded their “backward-looking” desire to recover and/or exalt their local languages and cultures to the “forward-looking” democratic and statist ideals of the French Revolution that had so often offended Romantic activists in the generation previous to their own. 

Indeed, many have argued that it was precisely this seemingly antagonistic fusion of romantic and French republican influences that finally ensconced the nation-state as the normative model of social organization on the European continent. But that, my friends, is a story for another day.

So why should we care about any of this today? 

Well, if there is anything that has become clear to alert minds over the last five years—and even more so since Elon Musk’s review of expenditures at USAID—it is that much of the world outside of our shores has been living under a modern, American-created equivalent of the Napoleonic invasions. 

While killing and mutilating still have a place within the toolbox of our merchants of supposedly universal values like trans-rights, childhood genital mutilation, pharmaceutical bondage, and unlimited abortion, it has been overtaken in precedence therein by color revolutions, vote-buying, and most of all, flood-the-zone style media bombardment. 

Like Napoleon’s troops, the legions of cognitive warriors from the myriad government-financed, non-governmental organizations (no contradiction there!) directed either overtly or covertly by strategic planners in Washington are sure they have arrived at the end of history when it comes to understanding what it means to live a free and dignified life. 

They have all the answers and it is therefore their duty to impose these wonderful ways of thinking—which as a visit to any major American city shows—have brought untold amounts of health and happiness to the US population—to the benighted masses of the world. 

And just to make sure that the natives understand the inevitability of adopting this Benevolence-Made-in-Washington(BMW), US planners have trained and placed into the highest levels of their governments, wholly owned US ciphers (e.g. Baerbock, Kallas, Sánchez, Habeck, Stoltenberg, Rutte, Macron, and a long etc.) able to explain the enormous benefits of the Pax Wokeana to the masses in their own vernaculars. 

And if those benighted souls fail to recognize the opportunities for cultural advancement being showered on them by their Besties by the Potomac (BBP)? Well, there’s an easy solution for that. You immediately and continuously blast a closed-loop psalmody containing the words “Hitler,” “Fascist,” and “Right Wing Extremist” at them and their fellow countrymen. 

Twenty-four hours, never mind five full years, of such a bombardment truly works wonders on wobbly minds. Think of it as the psy-op correlate of Napoleon’s decision to institute the use of the enemy-disorienting quick-step among his troops. 

In Napoleon’s campaign to reorient the cultural goals and assumptions of his fellow Europeans, it all went very, very well. Until, of course, one day in Waterloo when it didn’t.

Key to his waning inability to keep the momentum of conquest going was the stout resistance of the Russian people who, though serially portrayed by Westerners as backward and thus in need of constant tutelage, have shown a consistent resilience that few other peoples have ever shown in the face of foreign attacks. 

Am I saying that 2025 will be a repeat of 1815? No. But as Mark Twain reportedly said, while “History does not repeat itself….it often rhymes.”

In a few short years, the US oligarchy’s reality-creation machine has achieved impressive results. It has convinced important pluralities of people all across Europe and other parts of the world to believe all sorts of contrafactual things, ideas such as: men can breastfeed, humans are not a sexually dimorphic species, that great powers blow up pipelines that are essential to their economic well-being, that censoring speech, canceling elections, and outlawing parties are hallmarks of democracy, that injections that don’t stop transmission or infection are key to preserving the health of all, that wanting to simply regulate the flow of strangers into your country is inherently hateful.

Yes, it has all worked pretty well for them up until now. But there are signs that the magic spell is wearing off among important parts of the affected populations.  The drive among such disaffected people to finally stand up and object to the empire’s hocus-pocus has no doubt been strengthened by Russia’s decision to finally confront the high-minded and disorienting abstractions of the so-called West with forthright physical and spiritual strength.

Though I could be wrong, it seems that we are entering a time when local and nationalist sentiments and symbols will, as occurred after 1815, be recovered and once again brought to the forefront of our social discourses. This rising embrace of provincial particularities will no doubt disturb many, especially those who, through their government-supported imposition of cosmopolitan cultural models,  were well on their way to ridding the world of that “troubling”  thing called cultural memory.  

But for many, many more, I suspect, it will be lived—for a while at least—as a comforting return to the possibility of living in a state of psychic balance; that is, of once again practicing the erstwhile human art of melding identity-fortifying memories of the past with hopeful aspirations for the future.

Warning DEI is turning Australian airways into a ‘deadly experiment’

A push for Diversity, Equality and Inclusion (DEI) within Australia’s airline industry risks turning our skies “into a deadly experiment”, a political commentator has warned.

John Mac Ghlionn wrote in a piece for Sky News on Tuesday that the “noble pursuit” of diversity brings with it a grave risk of danger by prioritising identity over competence, declaring that a “workforce selected for optics rather than expertise is destined for failure”.

“Australia has long prided itself on a world-class aviation sector, but recent trends in hiring practices could jeopardise the very safety that has earned it international respect,” Mac Ghlionn said.

He noted that DEI demands have been “enforced across all levels of aviation, from airport ground staff to pilots and air traffic controllers”, and that this has been driven by groups like the Australian Airports Alliance (AAA) and the Civil Aviation Safety Authority (CASA).

The AAA “has embraced DEI policies with zeal, aiming to create workplaces that mirror Australia’s diverse population”,  while CASA – the organisation responsible for regulating pilots, air-traffic controllers and engineers – has “aligned itself with the Diversity Council of Australia”, Mac Ghlionn said in his article.

Mac Ghlionn noted that ground operations at Australian airports were already plagued with delays and baggage issues, and said that DEI could have catastrophic flow-on effects as airports are “high-stakes hubs of precision” where missteps can cascade.

“Treating [airports] as social experiments risks more than efficiency; it risks lives,” he wrote.

Mac Ghlionn’s warning comes in the wake of the United States’ worst aviation disaster in over a decade when a passenger jet and a helicopter collided and crashed into the Potomac River near Washington DC on January 29, killing 67.  

President Donald Trump blamed the rise of DEI and diversity directives brought in during the Biden administration for this and other related events.

This collision and Trump’s comments come just days after the President issued an executive order ending Biden-era DEI demands across America’s aviation industry.

As a press statement from the Trump White House announced, under ex-President Biden, America’s Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) sought to hire “individuals with serious infirmities that could impact the execution of their essential life-saving duties.”

“The Biden FAA specifically recruited and hired individuals with ‘severe intellectual’ disabilities, psychiatric issues and complete paralysis over other individuals who sought to work for the FAA,” the White House said.

Trump’s Presidential Memorandum aims to “End DEI Madness” as it instructs the Secretary of Transportation and the FAA to cease the DEI directives of the former administration and to “return to non-discriminatory, merit-based hiring”.

An Equal Opportunity Commission report that shows that the number of people working with disabilities in US agencies grew from 8.7% in the fiscal year 2016 to 10.5% at present.

A 2023 investigation by the New York Times revealed that near-collisions between commercial airlines occurred “multiple times a week, and at nearly all major airports”, and the FAA announced that 2024 saw the highest number of “serious runway incursions” since 2016.

Just this week there was another fatality in Arizona when two planes collided on a runaway, bringing the total number of fatal aviation incidents in America to four in the last two weeks alone.

These and related incidents across a range of sectors form what American essayist Harold Robertson has dubbed a Competence Crisis within which “changing political mores have established the systematic promotion of the unqualified and sidelining of the competent”.

The Tangled Web of Foreign Aid

The Tangled Web of Foreign Aid
by Armando Simón at Brownstone Institute

The budget should be balanced, the Treasury should be refilled, public debt should be reduced, the arrogance of officialdom should be tempered and controlled, and the assistance to foreign lands should be curtailed lest Rome become bankrupt. People must again learn to work, instead of living on public assistance.”

-Cicero, 55 BC

It was Peter Bauer who pointed out that foreign aid is the means by which poor people in rich countries are forced to give money to rich people in poor countries. After all, how else are the families of African dictators and their ministers going to maintain their mansions along the French Riviera? How would they be able to navigate Europe’s roads? If not for American and British foreign aid, luxurious chateaus would go empty, unsold. And bank accounts in Switzerland, Grand Cayman, Panamá, and elsewhere just don’t get filled by themselves.

No doubt the people of North Carolina who are homeless because of the hurricane can sleep better knowing that African dictators’ families have a roof over their heads in Gstaad and Lake Como. Americans who have not received help from FEMA because the money allocated to that agency went toward illegal immigrants’ welfare and because some had Vote Trump signs in their yard should realize that there are priorities and they should not be heartless.

And to be fair, it is not just dictators who receive the benefits from the money. It seems that $35,000 went toward providing Cameroons with comic books, $1.5 million to promote homosexuality in Serbia, and $2 million to make the Ethiopians wear shoes. 

Yet, one only has to look at Haiti and Africa to notice that after billions of dollars spent on “economic development” over many decades, all of those countries remain pigsties, whose cities don’t even have a sewer system, something that Rome developed 2,000 years ago (and it is not rocket science). And Afghanistan? Though the cretin from Crawford, Texas swore against nation-building, that country at one point received the most foreign aid of all the parasites. 

How did that work out?

Nor is it individual nations. The United States is the largest contributor to the United Nations, paying 22 percent of the $5.4 billion core UN budget and 28 percent of the $7.9 billion UN peacekeeping budget.

Yet, two-thirds of the world is on America’s welfare rolls. 

And remember the Covid farce? During the height of the fiasco, for over two years businesses were ordered closed by Democrats in an orgiastic display of power and subjugation. People lost their jobs while the politicians kept getting a paycheck. Inside the “stimulus package” the overlords passed: in a gesture of generosity, the politicians bestowed $600 of their own money back to each citizen as compensation for Democrats imposing lockdowns that resulted in their loss of livelihood for over a year. And in that “stimulus package,” they sent $25 million to Pakistan, ten of which went to “gender programs,” $700 million to Sudan, $250 million to Palestinians, $85 million to Cambodia, $134 million to Burma/Myanmar, and $11 billion to various African dictatorships.

“Pleased that we were able to get so much done #ForThePeople in the closing days of the 116th Congress,” Nancy Pelosi actually had the nerve to say. To add insult to injury, that malignant elitist displayed herself indulging in a refrigerator full of $12/pint ice cream while many citizens had trouble putting regular food on the table (how is it that so many in Congress become multimillionaires while in office?).

And then the politicians wonder why there was January 6.

Attempting to completely eliminate USAID will result in an avalanche of lachrymose appeals about how absolutely necessary this, that, or the other program is and how it should remain untouched if we are ever going to rid the world of AIDS, ebola, irritable bowel syndrome, dirty water, famine, drought, ingrown toenails, illiteracy, circumcision, lack of circumcision, defective pencils, stale crackers, fostering homosexuality, shoelaces, etc. You will see dozens of photographs of children -always children – with suffering faces. You will hear dozens of corrupt politicians with offshore accounts and the army of lobbyists saying how tragic it is that “the world” is turning our backs on this or that “humanitarian crisis” and that “something needs to be done.” Or that good, old standby, “racism.” In the meantime, USAID deep state workers will ignore orders to stop giving out money that does not belong to them.

African dictators will demand that Western countries send them money, using either slogans of “the rich must help the poor,” or, “reparations for slavery” that will elicit knee-jerk reactions from liberals.

The above agitators will not give up without a fight. Too much money is at stake.

And, of course, you will hear appeals to “compromise,” and “gradual.”

Right-wing senator leads push to enshrine free speech in Australia’s constitution

United Australia Party Senator Ralph Babet has introduced a bill to enshrine freedom of speech in the Australian Constitution following the passage of restrictive new federal laws.

Mr Babet on Wednesday presented the Constitution Alteration (Right to Free Speech) Bill 2025 to the Senate, comparing his proposal to the United States First Amendment and calling for a referendum on the issue.

The Senator for Victoria has been a vocal critic of new hate crimes laws that were passed last week, calling the bill “vague, poorly designed, and wide open for abuse by the radical left to criminally target those they disagree with”.

“This bill is urgently needed and will provide protection of a right that many Australians assume they already have. This assumption, though, is increasingly dangerous. While freedom of speech in this country is generally assumed, it is not guaranteed. Indeed, it is always under threat,” Mr Babet told the Senate.

“Over the past decade, the right of Australians to say what they think has been increasingly infringed upon, and, while Australian parliaments have made no efforts at all to protect speech, they have, however, passed laws at state and federal level to restrict freedom of speech.

“We are now at a point where it is dangerous to openly say things that most people privately believe. It’s a brave person, for example, who opines that men cannot become women. Is that really the kind of country that we want to live in—a country in which stating a simple truth puts a person in danger of being dragged before a tribunal to be interrogated for their words?”

Mr Babet said that he believed the Australian people, if given the opportunity, would vote in favour of his bill, as everyday Aussies believed in a fair go.

“My proposed alteration to the Constitution will protect freedom of expression, along similar lines to the first amendment in the United States constitution, which provides that congress shall make no law abridging the freedom of speech or of the press,” he said.

“My bill will put the brakes on efforts to suppress speech, which is shockingly becoming more and more common all around the Western world, especially here in Australia.”

Mr Babet’s proposal was applauded by his followers, who left hundreds of approving comments.

Independent Queensland Senator Gerard Rennick, who voted no to the government’s hate crimes bill along with Mr Babet and just four others, also spoke out in favour of a free speech amendment on Monday, saying the Australian cultural trait of “taking the piss” was under threat.

“We can’t allow the media and politicians to whip up an atmosphere of hate amongst Australians only to have them turn around and use that hate to justify bringing in laws to censor and control you,” he told his social media followers.

“It’s time free speech was enshrined in the constitution.”

The hate crimes bill, which was rushed through parliament by Labor last week due to pressure from the Coalition to act on Australia’s so-called anti-Semitism crisis, created new offences for threatening force or violence against an expanded list of “targeted groups” and imposed mandatory minimum sentences.

Victoria is also expected to pass new anti-vilification laws as a result of lobbying from Jewish groups, and NSW Premier Chris Minns was expected to introduce similar legislation in the coming weeks after vowing to restrict free speech to counter anti-Semitism, but is now facing pushback from within his party.

How to Forge the Spectator Class

How to Forge the Spectator Class
by Josh Stylman at Brownstone Institute

My father could disassemble and rebuild a car engine in our garage. I, like many of my generation, was steered toward the ‘civilized’ path – white collar work, climate-controlled offices, and an increasing detachment from the physical world. While I grew up loving sports, memorizing baseball stats with religious devotion, and finding genuine joy in the games, something fundamental has shifted in how men engage with athletics today.

In dimly lit rooms across the nation, millions of men gather every weekend, adorned in jerseys bearing other men’s names – not as a complement to their own achievements, but as a substitute for them. We’ve transformed from a nation of players to a nation of watchers. Like Rome’s bread and circuses, this passive consumption serves to pacify rather than inspire. The games themselves aren’t the problem – they can build character, teach discipline, and provide genuine entertainment. I still love sports, finding genuine joy in the games just as I did memorizing those baseball stats as a kid. But somewhere along the way, I grew up and realized they should complement life’s achievements, not substitute for them. The danger lies in what happens when grown men never make this transition.

A growing segment of young men face an even more insidious form of spectator culture. While their fathers at least watched real athletes achieve real things, many young people now idolize social media personalities and content creators – becoming passive observers of manufactured personas who achieved fame primarily by being watched. They can recite influencer dramas and gaming achievements but don’t know the stories of Solzhenitsyn or have ever built something with their own hands. The virtual has replaced the visceral; the parasocial has replaced the personal.

History shows us a recurring cycle: hard times create strong men, strong men create good times, good times create weak men, and weak men create hard times. We find ourselves now in the latter stages of this cycle, where comfort and convenience have bred a generation of observers rather than builders. Our sophisticated entertainment serves as a digital opiate, keeping the masses content while their capacity for meaningful action atrophies.

This transformation isn’t accidental. As I explored in my ‘Engineering Reality‘ series, the systematic reframing of physical fitness as problematic represents a calculated effort to weaken societal resilience. Major media outlets like the Atlantic and MSNBC have published pieces linking physical fitness to right-wing extremism, while academic institutions increasingly frame workout culture as problematic. Even gym ownership has been characterized as a potential indicator of radicalization. The message couldn’t be clearer: individual strength – both literal and metaphorical – threatens the prescribed order.

This erosion of self-reliance extends far beyond fitness. A friend who’s spent decades as an auto mechanic recently confided that he’s grateful to be nearing retirement. “These Teslas,” he told me, “they’re not even cars anymore – they’re computers on wheels. When something goes wrong, you don’t fix it; you just replace entire modules.” What was once a craft that any dedicated person could learn has become an exercise in supervised dependency. Even Klaus Schwab openly predicts that by 2030, Los Angeles will be “private car driven free” – just a fleet of self-driving Ubers. With this week’s devastating tunnel fire in LA leaving thousands stranded, one wonders if such ‘Build Back Better’ moments are exactly the opportunities needed to accelerate these transformations. The message becomes clearer: you won’t fix things anymore because you won’t own them.

The Covid response revealed this agenda with striking clarity. While liquor stores remained ‘essential businesses,’ authorities closed beaches, parks, and gyms – the very places where people might maintain their physical and mental health. They promoted isolation over community, compliance over resilience, and pharmaceutical dependency over natural immunity. This wasn’t just public health policy; it was a dress rehearsal for state dependency. The same institutions that discouraged basic health practices now champion policies that replace family authority with bureaucratic oversight. From school boards usurping parental rights to social services intervening in family decisions, we’re witnessing the systematic replacement of the capable father figure with an ever-expanding nanny state.

But true masculinity has never been solely about physical strength. History’s greatest exemplars of masculine virtue weren’t just men of action – they were men of principle, wisdom, and moral courage. From Marcus Aurelius to Omar Little, as I explored in my earlier writing, the common thread was having an unwavering code – the willingness to stand firm on conviction even when it carries personal cost.

Consider how many men today silently acquiesce to policies they know are wrong, embrace narratives they privately doubt, or submit to institutional pressures that violate their conscience. During Covid, we watched as men who understood the importance of natural immunity, outdoor exercise, and community bonds nevertheless enforced policies that harmed their neighborhoods and families. They chose institutional compliance over moral courage, career safety over civic duty, majority approval over personal conviction.

Real strength isn’t found in anonymous aggression or digital posturing. I learned this firsthand during Covid when I spoke out against vaccine mandates and became a pariah for defending personal choice and bodily autonomy. While numerous ‘brave’ keyboard warriors attacked me online, one incident stands out. A friend forwarded me a Reddit thread where someone had posted personal information about my family and me, hoping to incite harassment against me – all because I stood up for bodily autonomy and opposed arbitrary biomedical segregation. The initials gave it away – it was my own neighbor, someone I’d known for years.

When I confronted him in person, this digital lion transformed instantly into a cowering mouse. The same man who had boldly called for my destruction from behind his screen, believing he was anonymous, now stood physically trembling before me, his hands shaking, voice quivering, unable to even meet my gaze.

This spiritual and intellectual weakness poses a far greater threat than any decline in physical capability. A society of physically strong but morally compliant men is just as vulnerable as one of physically weak ones. True masculine strength requires the courage to think independently, to question authority when necessary, and to protect those who depend on you even when it carries risk. It demands the wisdom to distinguish between legitimate authority and manufactured consensus, between genuine expertise and institutional capture.

History offers a stark lesson: civilizations thrive when diverse virtues work in concert – builders and nurturers, protectors and healers, strength balanced with empathy. Today’s systematic erosion of both isn’t random but calculated. As men are steered toward passive consumption and women away from their intuitive wisdom, both are replaced by institutional authority – a nanny state that attempts to fill both roles while achieving neither.

Consider the machinery at work: government programs increasingly separate children from family influence at younger ages, while school curricula promote ideologies that deliberately blur biological realities. From preschool to college, institutions systematically distance children from their parents’ values. Like the fiat currency that replaced real money, we now have fiat relationships through social media, fiat achievements through gaming, and fiat experiences through the metaverse. Each substitution moves us further from authentic human experience toward engineered dependency. When children no longer understand what it means to be male or female, when they’re taught to look to institutions rather than parents for guidance, the state’s victory is nearly complete.

The result is a society of spectators rather than builders, of consumers rather than creators, of followers rather than leaders. A society where men trade real achievement for virtual entertainment and keyboard courage, while genuine feminine wisdom is replaced by corporate-approved stereotypes.

The state can only expand into the vacuum left by weakened men and disconnected women. It feeds on our engineered helplessness, growing stronger as we grow more dependent. Those who recognize this pattern face a simple choice: remain comfortable spectators in our own decline, or reclaim the authentic virtues that make us human.

Yes, they really do hate freedom (Part 2)

Read Part 1 of Mitch Sutton’s three-part series here.

It has been established beyond reasonable doubt that the wave of so-called anti-Semitic terrorism which has swept Australia in recent months is fake. Senior police officials have admitted that the incidents are not ideologically or religiously motivated, but are being committed by criminals paid by unnamed overseas actors.

In my previous article I detailed six such cases, collating the facts from mainstream media reports and police statements. In every case where the alleged perpetrators were caught, they had a background in petty crime and links to the illicit drug trade. None are alleged to have links to an ideological agenda, and all appeared to be ignorant of even basic facts about the Jewish controversy (one couldn’t even spell the word Israel correctly). In three of the four cases with known alleged perpetrators, they allegedly acted as a group and involved an unidentified third party who has never been named or charged. In one of the cases, it is confirmed that this unknown third party commissioned and paid for the crime.

Most people would expect at this point that the government would find the foreign perpetrator as soon as possible, arrest their Australian collaborators and expose the operation publicly to ensure that this enemy can no longer wage covert influence campaigns to subvert Australian democracy. The attacks would stop, a foreign adversary would be exposed and everyone could thank the security services for a job well done in defending Australia’s sovereignty.

This hasn’t happened. Instead, Australia’s political leaders and the security establishment have acted as though there really was an organic wave of ideologically motivated anti-Semitic terrorism. Their response has been to advocate placing further restrictions on free speech at the state level, pressure social media companies behind the scenes to ban nationalist dissidents, and pass a Commonwealth hate crimes bill the broadens the definition of violent threats to the point where “threatening a car” can result in 7 years’ imprisonment.

Because none of these measures address the real issue of foreign interference, the attacks have continued, providing further excuses for the government to pass yet more laws to address this fictious crisis. This dynamic will be further analysed in Part 3, where I will analyse the possible motives of the foreign actor and how they align with the Australian government’s own goals.

When asked questions about who has organised the attacks, the government has generally attempted to avoid providing any information at all under the excuse that it is an operational matter and any comments will hinder the police investigation. On other occasions senior government figures have dishonestly tried to create the impression that Australian nationalists are responsible for the attacks.

For example, in an interview on February 2 journalist Michelle Grattan directly asked the Prime Minister about the issue. The Prime Minister’s reply is worth reproducing verbatim, because it is a microcosm of the government’s public response.

GRATTAN: This whole wave [of attacks], though, seems quite extraordinary, to me, at least. Have you any explanation or theory about how this could be happening? So much violence, so many incidents.

ALBANESE: Well, the police have outlined, themselves, some of their views about what the motivation is, and one of those is that some of the perpetrators of these violent acts have been paid to do so. Now, they are engaged in an operation to not just find the perpetrators, but find who’s paying them. Who are the actors behind this? Which is why some of the calls for more of that information to be out there, whilst understandable from one perspective, what you can’t do is undermine an investigation. And I’m about outcomes here, I want to make sure that that the people responsible, not just up front, but behind this, are held to account.

GRATTAN: But are you surprised that we’ve seen this enormous outbreak?

ALBANESE: Well, of course, I was surprised as well by last week the vision of up to 30 men in black gear from head to toe, marching through Adelaide and Adelaide Park – trying to march through – and Adelaide city, to disrupt Australia Day festivities. That’s not who Australia – it’s not what we are. We’re a tolerant, multicultural, harmonious nation, and some of clearly the motivation of some of this is about causing social division. Is about disruption. And it is – it is shocking. It has caused enormous distress in particularly, of course, in the Jewish community, who’ve been targeted. But more broadly, it’s caused distress as well.

First, the pivot away from providing any actual answers, then the insinuation that White Australians peacefully exercising their political rights are somehow connected to the attacks without explicitly saying so. Zero discussion about the actual perpetrators and their motives.

The opposition, led by the ultra-Zionist Peter Dutton, have so far failed to hold the government to account for its inability to name the foreign power behind the fake terrorism wave. Instead, it has also acted as though the attacks are organic and ideological in nature, and not paid for by unknown parties. Like the government, it has blamed online radicalisation. Its preferred scapegoat, however, has been leftist pro-Palestine activists, whom has it has consistently insinuated are behind the attacks. Dutton has further alleged that the Albanese Government’s reluctance to openly back Israeli’s genocide in Gaza has been the primary cause of the incidents.

A representative sample of the opposition’s position can be seen in Dutton’s responses during an interview with ABC journalist David Speers on February 2.

SPEERS: …The anti-Semitism, the attacks that we’ve seen escalating in Australia. You’ve described this as a clear campaign of terror and a national crisis. Do you think the terror threat level should be increased?

DUTTON: Well, that’s a matter for ASIO. I wrote to the Prime Minister in November of 2023 saying that we needed to have a National Cabinet because the Police Commissioners and the Police Ministers needed to hear, along with the Premiers and Chief Ministers, a very clear message from their Prime Minister that we had zero tolerance for these anti-Semitic attacks, and it was entirely predictable. We saw the protests two days after October 7 on the steps of the Opera House, and the Prime Minister has been weaving all over the road on this issue, and I think because of that lack of national leadership, we have seen a predictable escalation. I worry that people are going to lose their lives, and I think the Prime Minister needs to start taking this seriously.

SPEERS: Look, more broadly, how would you stop these anti-Semitic attacks?

DUTTON: Well, there should have been from day one, David, a very clear message that we don’t tolerate racism and anti-Semitic conduct – whether it’s by neo-Nazi nutjobs or whether it’s by the left wing of crazy organisations on campuses. For months and months and months, people were protesting against Jewish students, against Jewish academics. To this very day, the universities haven’t given a proper account of how that was allowed to continue on. The Prime Minister did nothing about it. The marches on the streets that went on for months and months, waving flags of terrorist organisations. All of that allowed people to believe that there was no red line that could be crossed and there’s no consequence.

Unfortunately, the government’s odd response to what might be the largest case of foreign interference in the country’s history does not stop at its elected officials. It also extends to the security services. In some of these cases, the authorities seem bizarrely reluctant to find and charge the perpetrators.

The Adass Israel synagogue in Melbourne suffered an alleged arson attack on December 6 that the government declared was a terrorist incident. At a press conference the following Monday, the AFP Deputy Commissioner stated that the Joint Counter-Terrorism Team investigating the incident “are already well-prepared, well-briefed and well-progressed.” The Victorian Police Commissioner went further, stating that “We’ve had significant progress, we’ve gained intelligence and evidence, as a result of that … we are treating this as a terrorist attack.” Yet despite the AFP stating that they would aim “to reach an outcome in the investigation as soon as possible”, no new information appears to have been released since December 9 last year. It is now over two months since that alleged arson attack occurred, and police haven’t even released the security camera footage of the perpetrators, despite having confirmed its existence at an earlier press conference.

Indeed, the only substantive publicly available evidence about the case comes from an interview (starting at 1:30 in the video) that Jewish journalist Avi Yemeni conducted with eyewitness Yumi Friedman. This interview raises more questions than answers. In the interview Friedman reports that an unnamed Jew who was also present at the site at 4am confronted the attackers, who not only left this man unharmed but also ran away! This other Jew also apparently saw the attackers (plural) carrying “jerry cans…big cans of petrol” that they used to start the fire after smashing the front door down with a sledge hammer. Friedman himself claims not to have been present at this exchange because he had run off earlier.

This raises several obvious questions. The attackers were unlikely to have dragged several large jerry cans of petrol with them by foot or bike. They must have used a car, which would be a very substantial piece of evidence even if it were stolen. Secondly, the attackers seemed to go out of their way to avoid harming Jews. Friedman was allowed to escape, and the attackers ran off rather than attempting to do violence to the lone Jewish man who had directly witnessed the crime. The fact that the attack took place at 4am when there was no possibility of the fire causing mass casualties is another interesting fact that has not been adequately explained. If the attackers really were murderous ideological anti-Semites, then their actions make little sense.

Yet despite this panoply of evidence, eyewitness testimony and security camera footage in a nationally significant counter-terrorism case, there have been no arrests and no suspects named. Why? It is almost as if police have come upon evidence that would cause substantial embarrassment for the government if it were publicly released. Perhaps I will be proven wrong and the suspects will one day be arrested and tried. More likely, I suspect this will simply disappear down the memory hole. Certainly, the media seems to show little interest in holding the authorities to account over their apparent inability to catch the perpetrators or release new information.

To conclude, the government and security services seem to want to talk about anything other than the reality of the attacks – that they are being directed from overseas by a party that is trying to achieve political change in Australia. Instead, they have mysteriously decided to play into the hands of the attackers by pretending that the phenomenon is an organic one caused by Australians, which requires further restrictions on their political rights to combat.

In the final article of this series, I will take the facts discussed in Parts 1 and 2 and speculate as to which foreign actor has been planning the attacks, why they’re doing it and how it links in to the government’s response.

FDA Misled the Judiciary about Pfizer’s Vaccine Documents

FDA Misled the Judiciary about Pfizer’s Vaccine Documents
by Maryanne Demasi at Brownstone Institute

On December 6, 2024, a federal judge ordered the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to release documents related to the emergency use authorisation of Pfizer’s Covid-19 vaccine. These documents had been hidden from public view.

The legal battle traces back to September 2021, when attorney Aaron Siri filed a lawsuit under the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) on behalf of the Public Health and Medical Professionals for Transparency. The plaintiffs sought access to the vast trove of documents the FDA relied on to approve Pfizer’s vaccine.

Initially, the FDA proposed a slow release schedule. In November 2021, the agency stated it would release just 500 pages per month—a pace that would have stretched the full disclosure process to 75 years. 

However, in January 2022, District Judge Mark Pittman of Texas rejected the FDA’s proposal, ordering the agency to expedite its release to 55,000 pages per month, aiming to complete the disclosure of all 450,000 pages by August 2022.

As the documents trickled out, researchers began uncovering glaring gaps that prevented a systematic review of the data. These gaps fueled suspicions about what else the FDA might be withholding. 

It became evident that the FDA had withheld records directly tied to its emergency use authorisation of Pfizer’s vaccine, estimated to be over one million pages. 

These documents, which the FDA had full knowledge of, were excluded from earlier disclosures, effectively misleading the judiciary and undermining public trust.

Siri didn’t mince words. 

“The FDA has been hiding a million pages from the Court, the plaintiff, and the public. Only those concerned about the truth seek to conceal evidence,” said Siri in an interview.

“The FDA here is clearly concerned about the truth and lacks confidence in the review that it conducted to license Pfizer’s COVID-19 vaccine because it is doing everything possible to prevent independent scientists from conducting an independent review,” he added.

Aaron Siri, Managing Partner of Siri & Glimstad LLP

Judge Pittman’s latest court order to expedite the full disclosure of documents acknowledges the public’s right to scrutinise the data that underpin one of the most significant public health interventions in history. 

In his ruling, Judge Pittman invoked a powerful reminder from American revolutionary Patrick Henry: “The liberties of a people never were, nor ever will be, secure, when the transactions of their rulers may be concealed from them.” 

Pittman concluded, “The COVID-19 pandemic is long passed, and so has any legitimate reason for concealing from the American people the information relied upon by the government in approving the Pfizer vaccine.”

According to the latest court order, the additional documents are slated for release by June 2025. However, Siri is unsure about whether the FDA will release these records in installments or in a single tranche. Either way, he is not taking any chances. 

Siri issued a legal notice to the FDA and other agencies within the Department of Health and Human Services, warning against the destruction, deletion, or modification of any relevant documents and vowing to report any such violations to the Department of Justice.

“The FDA has spent far too long thinking it can do whatever it wants without accountability,” Siri said. 

He speculated that the FDA may try to extend its deadline and prolong the legal battle, given its army of attorneys and vast resources. 

“I think they’re hoping that we will just go away. What the FDA doesn’t know is that we’re never going away. We won’t stop fighting for freedom and rights, ever,” added Siri defiantly.

A spokesperson at the FDA said it “does not comment on ongoing litigation.”
