  • From Manufactured Scandals to AI Misinformation

    FAKE NEWS This section chronicles some of the most pressing examples of disinformation and fake news from the previous two weeks. I define fake news as information that appears to be real news but is baseless, inaccurate, misleading, or false. Fake news isn’t just a headline problem — it’s a cultural crisis.

  • Refugee Dunghills: Australia Makes Another Nauru Deal

    Over the last two decades, Australia has made a name for itself by pursuing barbaric policies towards refugees and asylum seekers arriving by sea. Priding these moves as noble and humanitarian, cruelty born of kindness, these have entailed attacking the right to seek asylum guaranteed under the United Nations Refugee Convention of 1951 and the […]

  • Albion Stupidities: Palestine Action and Anti-Terrorism Laws

    Protest in Britain has become dangerous of late. Shaky lawmakers minding their elected positions, displaying decorative ignorance, have been criminalising protests against the war in Gaza, branding certain groups “terrorist” in inclination. While the laws dealing with criminal damage to property and such are already more than adequate, the government of Sir Keir Starmer thought […]

    Eugenics and the Discriminatory Misuse of Gene Science Explored

Prof. of the History of Science, University of Alabama, Author, The Shortest History of Eugenics In The Name of the Gene Directed by Stephanie Welch Produced by Stephanie Welch, Andrew Kimbrell, Jed Riffe The concept of a “gene” — which came about during the Gilded […]

  • Stop the Violence

    It is paradoxical that many advocate for ending wars without acknowledging the root issue of violence. If now is not the time to finally address violence, when will it be? We must name and challenge all its forms—physical, religious, economic, political, psychological, cultural, sexual, and others—because violence in any form is the primary barrier to […]

  • No Excuse for Refusing Palestinians their State a Moment Longer

    When it comes to recognising Palestinian statehood, the UK and US seem unable to grasp what their solemn obligations are. Fortunately, UN Resolution 37/43 of December 1982 is there to help. It comprehensively reaffirms previous resolutions and treaties on the universal right to self-determination and the speedy granting of independence to colonial countries and peoples […]

    From USSR & Russia and Islam, to Toronto to Antisemitic in the Eyes of the Overload

    Aug 03, 2025  Link to the Interview, ahead of the KYAQ.org 91.7 FM airing. Oh, we did it, via Zoom, from Newport, Oregon, to Toronto, Ontario, Canada.

  • Insufficient Press Coverage of Big Data Surveillance

    As the second Trump administration is dispatching its minions to stalk US streets, smashing citizens’ First Amendment rights, in partnership with unregulated Big Tech, it also surveils online, helping itself to citizens’ personal identifiable information (PII). In the age of surveillance capitalism, information is a hot commodity for corporations and governments, precipitating a multi-billion-dollar industry […]

  • Violence in Costa Rica and the Rush to Blame Nicaragua

    Traditionally regarded as safe for visitors, Costa Rica has recently become Central America’s second most dangerous country, with 400 homicides recorded so far this year. The violence is attributed to an epidemic of drug-related crime, as the country has become a major staging post for narcotics smuggled to Europe. Costa Rica just detained a former […]

  • The Spectacle of a Police State: This Is Martial Law Without a Formal Declaration of War

    In Trump’s America, the bar for martial law is no longer constitutional—it’s personal. What is unfolding right now in California—with hundreds of Marines deployed domestically; thousands of National Guard troops federalized; and military weapons, tactics and equipment on full display—is intended to intimidate, distract and discourage us from pulling back the curtain on the reality of […]
