In this timely interview, Dr. Karen Siegemund of the American Freedom Alliance, interviews Douglas Murray about what has been going on in our crazy world.
For those who haven’t yet read or listened to Murray’s Madness of Crowds, I highly recommend it. It was published in 2019 but he accurately predicts all of the Woke insanity that has been occurring in the past few months.

Just when we thought things couldn’t get more insane in the Left Coast American city of Seattle, the woke politicians are about to take it down to an even lower level: Police to be defunded by 50%

#ElectionsHaveConsequences
Many people whose mother tongue is Spanish frequently refer to themselves as “brown skinned”. This small restaurant owner in Houston, Texas discovered that not caving into the BLM mob has consequences:

A few days ago Bret Weinstein sat down with Joe Rogan and they had the most engaging three hour discussion. There are so many profound things that were said. In talking about how to help young Black Americans improve their lives, Weinstein proposed that more should be done to encourage them get into the sciences. Who is at the front lines stopping this? Woke White people. About this latter group, he offered this gem:
“If you end up in Critical Theory – any one of these fields: Women’s Studies, Queer Studies, whatever it is – you have already foregone this [STEM] option. You don’t end up in Critical Theory if you have the chops to do Science. So, in effect, you have people who don’t stand to personally benefit from opening those [STEM] doors wider because they wouldn’t go through them, arguing that nobody should go through those doors.”
If you ever suspected that many Wokeratis were D-level #MathIsHard individuals with severe Daddy issues, you would be correct.
LIKE SON, LIKE FATHER. Someone painted blackface on a statue of Justin Trudeau’s father, Pierre. Honestly, the cop seems to have trouble keeping a straight face as he talks about it — especially when a reporter asks if it’s a “hate crime”. pic.twitter.com/R9jr3kOXMa

Some have called this recent podcast episode by Sam Harris the most important podcast segment in the history of the Internet. It’s long. He has nothing nice to say about Trump. But his message for reasonable people on the Left is critically important. This would be a brilliant link to send to all of your Left-leaning family & friends and encourage them to listen to it to the end.
(Seconded by Kate. It’s an important podcast and people like Sam Harris, no matter their partisan leaning, need our support.)
Dear SDA Readers, we have two intriguing questions for you:
This past week, cancel culture reached a fever pitch with BBC owned TV network UKTV removing a Fawlty Towers episode called “The Germans”. The co-creator of this brilliant TV sitcom, John Cleese, has pushed back and it has been restored:
Speaking to Australian newspaper The Age, Cleese had said: “The Major was an old fossil left over from decades before. We were not supporting his views, we were making fun of them. If they can’t see that, if people are too stupid to see that, what can one say?”
He slammed BBC executives for yielding to pressure from protesters. “A lot of the people in charge now at the BBC just want to hang onto their jobs,” he said. “If a few people get excited they pacify them rather than standing their ground as they would have done 30 or 40 years ago.”
On Twitter, Cleese doubled down on his criticism of the BBC. “The BBC is now run by a mixture of marketing people and petty bureaucrats,” he wrote. “It used to have a large sprinkling of people who’d actually made programs. Not any more. So BBC decisions are made by persons whose main concern is not losing their jobs. That’s why they’re so cowardly and gutless and contemptible.”
Feel free to watch the episode here yourself and decide.
If you’ve been wondering why protesters violent thugs have had free reign to destroy countless cities, injure and kill a growing number of innocent people, and pretty much do whatever they damn well please, look no further than the Mayor of London:
“What is the logical conclusion? What is the end of the cancel culture? I will tell you what it is. It is right here in this city, Washington, the District of Columbia. That’s where it will end if we don’t put an end to the madness now,” Cotton warned.
“Just up the Mall is the Washington Monument. Are we gonna tear the Washington Monument down? Are we going to rename it the Obelisk of Wokeness?” the senator asked.
“Up the Hill is the Washington National Cathedral where so many times we have gathered as a nation over the years to mourn our great leaders, to pray for God’s protection and deliverance in moments of national strife and struggle,” Cotton continued. “Are we going to rename the Washington National Cathedral the ‘Temple of Reason’ as the Jacobins did to Notre Dame during the French Revolution?”
I believe their answer is “yes”.
Both Mark Steyn and Dennis Prager share their thoughts about recent events.
