The Science Is Settled?

I’ve always been skeptical of the disease model of addiction, and the treatment industry that flows from that theory. Disagreements of a fundamental nature in the scientific community on a host of issues are remarkably common, contrary to what the mainstream media would like you to think.

Smith was steadfast in her belief that her actions were volitional from the start. Her drug use and crimes were not the products of an immoral character or a faulty brain incapable of change, but rather of an environment where heroin was accessible and desirable. This outlook determined her experiences in prison and beyond, ultimately leading her to dedicate her life to challenging predominant medical models of addiction with her research. Today, she is an assistant professor of psychiatry and behavioural sciences at Johns Hopkins University in Baltimore, Maryland.

 

Jacinda Ardern: “I made mistakes – but I was human”

The infamous Kiwi totalitarian thug of the Covid era now wants sympathy:

Ardern stressed that Covid-19 was not the sole reason for her decision to step away from politics, but acknowledged the pandemic’s heavy toll.

“I never pinpointed Covid specifically, because in part I think it was just an accumulation of crises. Five years of leadership felt like 10 – that’s probably what I would say.

“As much as you were trying to make the best possible decisions, inevitably there were consequences for people, and people didn’t always believe it was the right thing to do.”

For those who have forgotten, here are some highlights of her authoritarian tyranny: 1 2 3

Some Squinting Required

On incongruous period-drama casting; “decolonised” singing; and adventures in the world of niche pornography:

To summarise: Opportunist female porn models who pretended to be men pretending to be women, to thereby rake in lots of cash, have annoyed actual men who pretend to be women, including men who pretend to be women while making pornography.

See, I bring you the wonders of the world.

The ladies’ act of presenting themselves as the opposite sex, albeit with extra steps, was not, it seems, deemed affirming by those who like to present themselves as the opposite sex.

All this and more.

It’s Not Hypocrisy It’s Hierarchy

Shawn Rickard- In 2021/2022 unvaccinated Temporary Foreign Workers (TFW’s) received exemptions from Trudeau’s tyrannical Vaccine Travel Mandates, permitting them to freely board a plane and leave the country while 5-6 million unvaccinated Canadian citizens and PR’s were illegally stripped of their charter/human rights and banned from boarding all forms of federally regulated transportation (including domestic & international flights, trains, buses and ships). Canadians were literally held hostage in their own country while TFW’s got preferential treatment over citizens. We will be exposing this in Federal Court.

Government of Canada- Question Period Note: Temporary Foreign Worker (TFW) Program (including travel issues)

The travel exemptions allowing unvaccinated temporary foreign workers to leave Canada on commercial flights will provide the short-term workforce support necessary to maintain our high-standard levels of trade, commerce, and food security.

Nothing To See Here

Move along please.

Kevin Klein- Families terrorized as politicians look the other way

We now live in a country where a 12-year-old out on bail can pick up a firearm, invade a home, and shoot a man. We live in a country where a father who confronts criminals in his own house ends up in a coffin. Meanwhile, politicians in Ottawa debate carbon taxes and new regulations, while violent offenders cycle in and out of the system without consequence.

The Sound Of Silenced Science

ADHD – the Truth Goes Down the Memory Hole

This is in my view one of the great scandals of our age. We have turned away in horror from the chastisement of naughty children, to such an extent that in some European countries it is a crime to smack a child. Yet we drug children, often at very young ages and in increasing numbers, with amphetamines whose use is in general sternly banned by law. If smacking a defenceless child is wrong, then surely drugging a defenceless child is just as wrong. And yet conventional wisdom, which decides these things, regards the smack as an outrage, and the drug as normal and right. It is in these anomalies that we find out what is really wrong with our world.
