There have been countless examples of liberalism being a mental disorder.Here is another one:Two researchers from Western Michigan University have written a paper titled “Beneficial Bloodsucking,” which was published by the journal Bioethics this past July. (No, it isn’t about vampires.)The paper argues that intentionally spreading alpha-gal syndrome (AGS), a potentially life-threatening allergy to red meat, could be not only morally defensible, but perhaps even necessary, in order to reduce animal suffering and combat climate change.Here are the authors, Parker Crutchfield and Blake Hereth, in their own words:Because promoting tickborne AGS prevents something bad from happening, doesn’t violate anyone’s rights,...

The nation’s largest teachers' union sent a mass email to its members containing a map that erased the state of Israel and labeled the area "Palestine," along with materials supporting Hamas’ barbaric Oct. 7 attacks. The National Education Association emailed their 3 million teachers of their union materials concerning "teaching about indigenous peoples," which included the map. The materials originally included reading materials from the Palestinian Youth Movement, which has hosted speakers from the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine – which the State Department designates as a foreign terrorist organization. The materials were first exposed by StopAntisemitism, an...

The world is waking up. This is great news for young people, great news for parents -- and terrible news for the doctors who had begun to profit from this madness. From UnHerd: Data from my new Centre for Heterodox Social Science report, 'The Decline of Trans and Queer Identity among Young Americans', shows that since 2023 both trans and queer identification have dropped sharply within Generation Z. The Foundation for Individual Rights and Expression (FIRE), which conducts a large annual survey of US undergraduates, polled over 60,000 students in 2025. My analysis of the raw data shows that in...

A Scottsdale Unified School District (SUSD) teacher is under fire after shocking allegations surfaced that she labeled a third-grade student an “extremist” and coordinated with a neighbor to spy on him outside of school. Even more disturbing, this is the same teacher who reportedly celebrated the assassination of Turning Point USA founder Charlie Kirk on social media. In a heartbreaking video testimony shared by Libs of TikTok, a third grader shared his disturbing experience with Donna Javinett, a 3rd-grade teacher at Anasazi Elementary School: “I was a third grader at Anasazi, but in a different class than Mrs. Donna Javinett....

OpenAI will soon allow “erotica” for ChatGPT users who verify their age on the platform. In an X post on Tuesday, OpenAI CEO Sam Altman said the company will add support for mature conversations when it launches age-gating in December. “As we roll out age-gating more fully and as part of our ‘treat adult users like adults’ principle, we will allow even more, like erotica for verified adults,” Altman writes. Earlier this month, OpenAI hinted at allowing developers to create “mature” ChatGPT apps after it implements the “appropriate age verification and controls.” OpenAI isn’t the only company dipping into erotica,...

Miami Beach’s iconic rainbow crosswalk on Ocean Drive was removed brick by brick Sunday morning — without any notice to the city — leaving residents and LGBTQ+ community members shocked and heartbroken.

OREM, Utah (KSL) – Students from a school in Utah are traumatized after a classmate brought a gun on a field trip and shot themselves in front of others. Police said the ninth grader from Canyon View Junior High shot themselves while on a field trip at South Fork Park. That student was flown to a local hospital, where they died. KSL does not normally report on suicides, but because the student brought a gun to school and fired it in front of other students, it brings it to another level. A group of ninth grade students put up a...

On Tuesday, Violet Affleck stood before the United Nations in New York City with a very important message: Violet Affleck, the 19-year-old daughter of Jennifer Garner and Ben Affleck, rants about "long COVID" and bringing back masks at the United Nations General Assembly "I am furious... It is neglect of the highest order to look children in the eyes and say, 'We knew how to protect you, and we didn't do it.' We have access to a technology [points to mask on her face] to prevent airborne disease. Something that millions of our ancestors and millions of people around the...

Violet Affleck, the daughter of Hollywood A-listers Jennifer Garner and Ben Affleck, appeared before the United Nations in New York City on Tuesday. The 19-year-old activist spoke about the importance of masks and other preventative devices more than five years after the COVID-19 pandemic changed life on the planet for all. Violet was appearing as part of an event titled Healthy Indoor Air: A Global Call to Action.

A notorious Arizona protester turned up outside Charlie Kirk’s memorial service on Sunday in Glendale, ignoring the solemn occasion to stage yet another bizarre spectacle. Sumayyah Dawud, a self-described transgender, Muslim Antifa activist infamous for his solo demonstrations, arrived early at State Farm Stadium with a handful of other protesters, brandishing signs that veered from pro-Palestinian slogans to insults aimed at President Trump, and even one labeling the group the “Satanic Society.” Dawud was previously arrested while protesting at a pro-Hamas encampment at Arizona State University. And made posts in the immediate aftermath of when Charlie Kirk was shot and...

As the transgender debacle spirals into greater chaos in the wake of Charlie Kirk’s murder, the time is ripe to openly discuss its absurdity before more children are inculcated into this dangerous delusion. Simple logic debunks the preposterous idea that a person can transmute his biological sex, that doctors and parents “assign” a sex in mysterious ignorance of what the infant truly is, or that men should be allowed to play dress-up in women’s sports. The Mayo Clinic discredits itself by legitimizing gender dysphoria as “a feeling of distress that can happen when a person’s gender identity differs from the...

"You currently have one side willing to talk and extend a microphone to anyone, and one side that shoots to kill when they do." —Aimee Terese on X. When Brian De Palma’s movie, Dressed to Kill, came out in 1980, this was a different country. Like Hitchcock’s Psycho before it (1960), both films depicted men seeking to become women who are murderously deranged by their wishful fantasies. Now, our country has become murderously deranged by the same fantasy writ large. These derangements are acted out now by a segment of the population that calls itself “the trans community.” This is...

In a shocking coincidence, transgender double-murderer Mia Bailey lived in Washington City and was arrested in nearby St. George, just minutes away from the residence shared by Tyler Robinson, the 22-year-old accused of assassinating conservative icon Charlie Kirk, and his transgender partner, Lance Twiggs. Robinson’s parents and Bailey’s parents both lived in Washington, Utah, approximately 5 minutes apart, in a small town of 27,993 people as of 2020. After murdering his parents, Bailey was arrested in St. George, just minutes from the Fossil Hills Townhomes community where Robinson and Twiggs lived together. While no direct connection between the cases has...

CHARLIE Kirk's suspected killer was spotted kissing his transgender partner just two weeks before the assassination, The Sun can reveal. Tyler Robinson, 22, had reportedly been living with his unidentified lover at a home in Utah.

A transgender comic book writer had their newly released project completely canceled by DC Comics after posts on BlueSky surfaced of them mocking the death of conservative icon Charlie Kirk. Gretchen Felker-Martin, who is transgender and uses "she/her" pronouns, had a major Batman spinoff called "Red Hood" canned despite having a significant launch just this Wednesday. Additionally, it was expected to see future releases all the way into late 2026. Now, Felker-Martin's pronouns can be changed to FA/FO. “At DC Comics, we place the highest value on our creators and community and affirm the right to peaceful, individual expression of...

More personal details are being shared about the woman who was stabbed to death in an apparently random attack on a light-rail train in Charlotte, North Carolina. -snip- While living in the Charlotte area, Ferguson said the college graduate worked at a pizza restaurant, took care of animals, helped at a senior citizen center and rode that same train often. “The first day she was allowed to work, she got a work permit here, she got a job the very first day,” Ferguson described. According to Barnacle, the Ukrainian embassy offered to help bring Zarutska’s body back to the European...

Those who get their news primarily from the social media platform X were flooded over the weekend with posts about the killing of 23-year-old Iryna Zarutska, a Ukrainian refugee stabbed to death on a Charlotte, N.C., light rail train........ Musk also said stories like Zarutska's are "sorely needed" to expose failures in the justice system, and warned his followers about "the magnitude of legacy media lies." Other conservative figures amplified the story as well. British journalist Piers Morgan asked his 8.5 million followers: "Why is the disgusting, senseless, unprovoked murder of 23-year-old Ukrainian refugee Iryna Zarutska by a man named...
