Recycling 40K plastic bottles offsets 1 flight. If you live in the United States, you probably do some form of recycling. It’s likely that you separate paper from plastic and glass and metal. You rinse the bottles and cans, and you might put food scraps in a container destined for a composting facility. As you sort everything into the right bins, ... MORE

Political Correctness At Colleges Is A Real Problem
by Ana Kasparian. Obama gets it right. During a recent town hall in Iowa,
President Obama addressed the issue of political correctness on college
campuses. He specifically called out liberal students who have
protested or banned conservative speakers at commencement ceremonies. “I’ve heard some college campuses where they ... MORE

Jacob Sullum: 5 Popular Drugs Scares Vs. Reality -- The Disconnect Between Drug Use And Public Alarm About It
Dangerous drug use is on the decline. Last year I noted the disconnect between rising public alarm about methamphetamine and falling rates of use. By 2005, when Newsweek identified "The Meth Epidemic" as "America's New Drug Crisis" in a sensational cover story, illicit methamphetamine use had been declining for years. A new ... MORE

A Dictatorship Disguised As A Democracy
by John W. Whitehead. Peeling back the surface layer: What most Americans perceive as life in America—privileged, progressive and free—is a far cry from reality, where economic inequality is growing, real agendas and real power are buried beneath layers of Orwellian doublespeak and corporate obfuscation, and “freedom,” such that it is, is meted ...

Cecil Was One Of Us. No, Wait, He Was Just A Lion
by Harry Goslin. The irrational, overly-emotional and childlike reaction to the killing of a lion in Africa is another example of why Americans will be forever in the dark about what’s important in the world and what’s not. It’s these kinds of silly, irrelevant stories that especially gets the lip-quivering left up in arms and unfortunately dominates the ... MORE

John W. Whitehead: Emergence Of Orwellian Newspeak
And the death of free speech. In totalitarian regimes—a.k.a. police states—where conformity and compliance are enforced at the end of a loaded gun, the government dictates what words can and cannot be used. In countries where the police state hides behind a benevolent mask and disguises itself as tolerance, the citizens censor themselves, ... MORE
Walter E. Williams: College Campus Update
Bryn Mawr will be better in sports. President Barack Obama wants Americans to dig deeper into our pockets to expand college education. Let's update college indoctrination done in the name of education. Cornell assistant professor Russell Rickford, in a lecture titled "Ferguson: The Next Steps," told a packed auditorium: "Let's be very clear about what's ... MORE

Why Did Chris Rock Stop Performing For Students?
by Robby Soave. Everything offends them. There's plenty to dissect in Frank Rich's comprehensive interview with Chris Rock. The comedian covers everything from Bill Cosby (he hopes the allegations are false) to the federal bailout of the auto industry (he was against it). I found Rock's remarks about why he no longer performs at college campuses ... MORE
Another White House Mouthpiece Joins Up With MSNBC
Propaganda repository gets new blood. MSNBC: The place where ex-White House aides go to be unbiased. Or, well, something like that. There was a time, years ago, when MSNBC was still pretending to have straight news reporting by not letting hosts like Rachel Maddow and Chris Matthews anchor election coverage. But that’s clearly a ... MORE
Government Propaganda Starts In Second Grade
Lies our government tell us in school. Apparently according to a homework sheet being given to our 2nd graders in this country about how to be good citizens, the government gives us our rights. Did you know that? This is what eight-year-old kids are being taught in this country. Wait, did I say taught? I meant being indoctrinated to blindly ... MORE
We Don’t Need More Promises, We Just Need Freedom
by Kira Davis. This week Rebel Pundit released
a video featuring four black, Chicago-area activists boldly questioning
the true intentions of Black leadership and the Democrat party in
general. The message resonated so thoroughly that the video went viral
almost immediately, even being played by the likes of Rush Limbaugh. For
me, ... MORE
Walter E Williams: Teacher Indoctrination
Repeat the lie enough and they will believe. Students at several Jefferson County, Colorado, high schools walked out to protest the school board's recently proposed curriculum review committee that seeks to promote patriotism, respect for authority, free enterprise, plus the positive aspects of U.S. history. The teachers union, ... MORE

Walter E Williams: The Education Establishment's Success
Pigeons make for easy prey. Many view America's education as a failure, but in at least one important way, it's been a success — a success in dumbing down the nation so that we fall easy prey to charlatans, hustlers and quacks. You say, "Williams, that's insulting! Explain yourself." OK, let's start with a question or two. Are you for or against ... MORE
American Soldiers Did Not Die Defending Our Freedom
by Jacob Hornberger. An indoctrination proclamation. I was at the Washington Nationals baseball game last week. Whenever I attend a Nats game, there is an air of militarism surrounding the game, but attending on Memorial Day helps to remind us what a truly militarized society America has become. After all, what in the world does baseball, a quite ... MORE
Walter E Williams: White Privilege
The propaganda and lunacy is deepening in schools. What would you think if your 8-year-old came home and told you that "white privilege is something that white people have, meaning they have an advantage in a lot of things and they can get a job more easily"? You would have heard that at the recent 15th annual White ... MORE
Walter E Williams: America's Budding Tyrants
A production of the government education system. From the Nazis to the Stalinists, tyrants have always started out supporting free speech, and why is easy to understand. Speech is vital for the realization of their goals of command, control and confiscation. Basic to their agenda are the tools of indoctrination, propagandizing, proselytization. ... MORE
Left Wants To Start Preaching Feminism To Kids
by Ashe Schow. You gotta get ‘em while they’re young. A rumbling is beginning among feminists to try to get their ideology put to use in the classroom. In an article on Pandagon, the liberal blog that gave rise to Ezra Klein, a feminist mom calling herself “Glosswitch” brought up the issue: “When I think of the blind faith in gender that surrounds ...
