  • Great overall, but Furedi needs to seek help for his “TDS”

  • A breath of fresh air

    Can I also recommend the fantastic article ‘The Gaza flotilla: the Woke Man’s Burden’ by Brendan. It sums up the destructive, hypocritical and skewed views of Israelphobes.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

The West’s war on ‘whiteness’, with Marie Kawthar Daouda
Q: How do you think that process plays out where you have a movement that poses as anti-racist but pushes an agenda that is hyper-racializing?
It presents a form of racism masquerading as anti-racism, which reinforces stereotypes and undermines progress by promoting a narrative that non-white communities are inherently less capable.
The West’s war on ‘whiteness’, with Marie Kawthar Daouda
Q: What are the harmful impacts of the cult of victimhood in our societies?
The cult of victimhood encourages individuals to identify as victims rather than autonomous actors, which can lead to societal division and enablement of harmful ideologies.
Rosie Kay: How woke is killing the arts
Q: How has that managed to take hold?
Rosie Kay explains that the threat of self-censorship has grown due to political, ideological pressure that has transformed training and diversity initiatives into overly bureaucratic policies.
Rosie Kay: How woke is killing the arts
Q: Could you just give us a brief reminder of what happened?
Rosie Kay describes her experience of being canceled while working on a production of Romeo and Juliet, detailing the strain it placed on her health and career.
Christopher Caldwell: The battle to secure the West’s borders
Q: What do you think is the root of a problem like the migrant crisis in the UK?
