While I do not know the man personally, and the little I have gleaned about him - mostly self-revealed - would not place him within a close circle of friends (even if I had such a thing), I have adjudged him to be a man who says what he says, always concisely and to the... Continue Reading →
Deceit and Distortion – The American Way
I wish I could ignore this situation and write about something more interesting, but I can't. Chiefly, I suppose, because my own country, Australia, is also caught up in this distasteful mess - on the fringes, but also on the wrong side again (as per usual). Can I be more specific? Of course. Take a... Continue Reading →
Why Do We Do The Things We Do? And is That a Climate Issue?
For me, there are few main drivers in my life, which after brief moments of thought might boil down to being defined, at a fairly high level, as: countering the global climate fraud; exposing global injustice in the form of deceit, corruption and misuse of wealth and power (in a small number of cases of...

This Is Why I Support Russia’s Determined and Ultimately Victorious Operation in Ukraine. A Legitimate and Justified Response to Protect People and Prevent and Destroy Rising Nazism in the West.
The altruistic and humanitarian traditional values of Russia have been offended by the brutal and offensive actions of the West in their attempt to destroy Russia and its people. That was always the goal of the Western nations - especially and dramatically energised since 2014. And that idea should not be divorced in any way... Continue Reading →
Russia: “…we have a relationship with the People’s Republic of China that is unique in terms of its depth and trust”
Russia will not in any way act to cause a dilution of that relationship under any kind of pressure from the US just because the US is feeling isolated and in a weakened position on the issue of nuclear weapons and the evident loosening of their grip on the kind of hegemony they long enjoyed...

Russia, Somehow Always Manages to Choose the Right Path Which Upholds its Traditional Values and Maintains its National Identity. The Same Cannot be Said of Any Western Nation.
I personally rate Russia's values very highly as a moderate traditionalist, though I choose not to hold to any overtly religious tradition, while also not condemning anyone else's right to do so. Adherence to any religious tradition demands a righteous acceptance of at least one among many particular traditional doctrines, but cannot claim exclusivity to... Continue Reading →
“Follow The Science”. Which science? The Science which follows “The Scientific Method”. The Method which ‘Weeds Out All Theories Which Do Not Work’.
"Follow The Science" has, by popular acceptance, become a 21st Century mantra. The problem with mantras is, they do not require any real level of understanding - just frequent repetition. And what has become known (enabled by general ignorance) as 'The Science', is not always 'The Real Science', but some deliberately incorrect and purposefully explained... Continue Reading →
Truth Relegated by political Parties to Whatever is Most Likely to Help Gain or Retain Electoral Power
Australia's conservative Liberal Party, all but wiped out at the last election, has learned nothing, it seems, about the value of truth in politics. The fact that the public - and politicians - are sadly uninformed about what is true or not in real scientific terms, is lost in the general hiatus of prior values... Continue Reading →
For Far Too Long We Have Allowed Government Funded Junk Science to Shape Our World and Our Thinking. Look Where That Has Gotten* Us…
* Use of that word proving I am not a common or garden British, Irish, Australian or New Zealand English speaker, but an independent thinker. It's use is correctly derived. And where exactly has that 'gotten' us? Quite obviously, today, and that also quite obviously does not just mean 'today', we have become (which is... Continue Reading →
Not Something Else
