Conservatives have long seen in The Matrix as an allegory for the totalitarian takeover of our society. You’ve grown up in a world of intrinsic deception so thorough that you cannot tell that it isn’t simply reality. Still, there are sometimes glitches and a pervasive feeling that something isn’t quite right. So, you must make a…
This Twitter stream from “epidemiologist & health economist” Eric Feigl-Ding, who lists “health & social justice” as priorities, is going around gaining agreement that we must (as he puts it) “Mandate teacher vaccinations now!” Replies to his tweets go farther, emphasizing punishment for people who don’t comply. For reference, my opinion is that the benefits…
It’s very easy to demand that government “ban evictions” when, like the people Katie Mulvaney interviewed for the Providence Journal, you’re not the one trying to derive income from a rental property: “The governor and the General Assembly have the authority to protect the public’s health with a moratorium” as well as Congress, said Jennifer…
Michael Morse offers a gentle suggestion to his fellow emergency and healthcare professionals: It doesn’t matter how whoever it is ended up in our care. What matters is that we care for them. Nowhere in any literature pertaining to anybody in the health care hierarchy does judgement get mentioned. Not in EMS manuals, nursing curriculum…
A new study (which appears to be out of Israel) confirms that natural immunity to the Delta variant of COVID-19 is even better than vaccine-driven immunity. Breakthrough infections are 13 times more likely with a vaccine, versus a recent infection. The number goes down only to 6 times for infections from longer ago. This study…
That’s the subject of my latest article for Accuracy in Media. The Highlander Institute’s radicalism can be seen in a review of its Twitter stream. For example, the organization provided the only retweet for a tweet by Dinah Becton-Consuegra of the Kapor Center in Oakland, California, which says: “We are a country founded on racist ideas,…
…then what do you call, for instance, the 200 or so Narragansett’s who helped wipe-out the Pequots at Mistick Fort? On May 23, a force of approximately 80 English (10 remained with the ships), 60 Mohegan and River Indians under Uncas, and 200 Narragansett marched 30 miles to present-day Mystic, Connecticut….Mistick Fort was engulfed in…
Whether there should there be a statue depicting Reverend Blackstone in Pawtucket is a question for the people making the investment of time and money and, to a lesser extent, the people in the area. What should concern us all, however, is the way in which these public debates are being conducted. Let’s take a…
Somehow my youngest child discovered the Netflix original cartoon series, Ridley Jones, and wanted to watch it. Being very wary of any children’s television programs produced within the past two years, I did some research. The premise is that Ridley watches over a museum with her mother and grandmother, and at night the exhibits come to…
Here’s a problem I grapple with every day: I hate providing content for social media companies. They profit from it, draw attention away from other platforms, censor it, and use it to divide and conquer our civilization. But… a lot of you are there. Many people who don’t yet know they’re Anchor Rising readers are…
