... sexually assaulting 'undocumented migrant'." All of us who are here—we are all the product of rape," said the show creator. Bix Caleen, played by actress Adria Arjona, is in a farming settlement when Imperial troops descend to round up the undocumented persons in the area. At first, an Imperial officer can be seen flirting with Bix before further attempts are rebuffed. Eventually, his persistence grows violent and the two fight, during which Bix kills the officer. "He tried to rape me!" She yells out. The Hollywood Reporter asked Andor creator Tony Gilroy about it, who said in his response "All of us who are here—we are all the product of rape. I mean armies and power throughout history [have committed rape]."

“We Can’t Hire a White Guy”—a Professor on Life at Princeton
Topic: Political Correctness
Source: The City-Journal
Back in 2020, Princeton president Christopher Eisgruber declared that the university was guilty of “systemic racism” against racial minorities. Most faculty have been supportive of Princeton’s “antiracism” policy, but a handful see it for what it truly is: discriminatory. “In these professors’ telling, Princeton’s president is a vengeful administrator who punishes anyone who questions DEI orthodoxy,” Christopher Rufo writes. He talked with one of them to get a better look at what’s happening behind the scenes.

Selling Muslim marriage app Salams to the Zionist pornography complex
Topic: Porn, Prostitution, and Sexual Freedom

David Miller exposes how Zionist-linked figures like Spencer Rascoff and investors like Paul Singer now control the Muslim marriage app Salams, raising serious concerns over Muslim user data, cultural exploitation, and broader moral threats. Muslim marriage app Salams has come under fire recently after users highlighted that it was acquired by the Match Group. Spencer Rascoff, appointed CEO in February 2025, is a Zionist, and Match Group is strongly associated with the promotion of so-called “hookup culture.” Salams was taken over in the last quarter of 2023, but the only mention of Salams by Match Group appeared in a Feb. 4 2025 earnings report detailing the company’s fourth-quarter and full-year financial results.

The court found that the penile-sparing vaginoplasty qualifies as an insured service and must be covered under the Ontario Health Insurance Plan (OHIP). The case involved a biologically male individual identified in court records as K.S., who does not exclusively identify as either male or female and sought to maintain both genitalia. This marks the third unanimous ruling in favor of K.S., according to a report by the National Post.

...dies by suicide. Giuffre, 41, died in Neergabby, Australia, where she had been living for several years. Giuffre was one of the earliest and loudest voices calling for criminal charges against Epstein and his enablers. Other Epstein abuse survivors later credited her with giving them the courage to speak out. She also provided critical information to law enforcement that contributed to the investigation into and later the conviction of Epstein’s associate Ghislaine Maxwell, as well as other investigations by the U.S. attorney for the Southern District of New York.

Major Corps Pull Funding From World's Largest Pride Event As DEI Fallout Continues
Topic: Political Correctness

So yes, the DEI (diversity, equity, inclusion) fallout continues, and while the left would have us believe the fallout is exclusively due to the second election of President Donald Trump, it turns out that the reality of corporate bottom lines and millions of dollars of lost revenue continue to play an increasingly major part in the demise of DEI insanity. One only has to remember the consequences to Bud Light and Target Corp. to understand the reality.

Trio of rulings freezes Trump’s anti-DEI directives for schools
Topic: Political Correctness
Source: Politico
Federal judges on Thursday dealt three separate blows to the Education Department’s plans to enforce sweeping bans on diversity, equity, and inclusion efforts in the nation’s K-12 schools, in decisions that declare Trump administration policies — or the way they were enacted — likely violate the law. The rulings stem from lawsuits brought by the country’s largest teacher unions and civil rights groups in separate jurisdictions. However, each court decision carries national implications that temporarily block the administration from carrying out this month’s directive that school systems comply with its interpretation of federal anti-discrimination law or risk sanctions...

'Snow White' Box Office Run Is Almost Over, Cementing All-Time Flop For Disney
Topic: Political Correctness
Source: Outkick
The Walt Disney Company's live action remake of "Snow White" hit theaters just over a month ago on March 19. And now, by late April, its box office run has all but officially come to an end, cementing its status as one of the biggest box office flops in Hollywood history. Soon after the film released, tracking sites and entertainment industry media published estimates of how much money "Snow White" could lose, assuming that box office tracking was accurate. It was already an astronomical write-off for Disney, even with the initial estimates. But with the film's theatrical run rapidly drawing to a close, it's now possible to get a more complete picture of just how bad things are for "Snow White" and for its studio. And it's much, much worse than even those initial predictions. Think Disney will learn its lesson?

Dems embrace 'Dark Woke' in attempt to push back against Trump
Topic: Political Correctness
Source: The Post Millennial
"Dark woke" is a take on the meme "Dark Brandon," which also wasn't particularly effective. A new article out from The New York Times paints a picture, with a photo of Texas Rep. Jasmine Crockett standing in shadowy sunlight as the graphic, of a Democrat Party leaning into their dark side. "As liberals try to get their groove back," the Times writes, "some party insiders say Democratic politicians have been encouraged to embrace a new form of combative rhetoric aimed at winning back voters who have responded to President Trump’s no-holds-barred version of politics." What does that look like in practice? It's Tim Walz blasting Elon Musk on stage, then saying he made the billionaire "cry." Walz notoriously said he enjoyed watching Tesla stock drop, despite it being a holding of pension funds for workers in his state. Everyone in Walz's party loved it while many others saw it as desperate, cringe, and out of touch.

‘Free speech is in a dark place’

Jacob Mchangama on Trump’s censoriousness, Britain’s thoughtpolice and the return of blasphemy laws to Europe. Free speech is under assault from all political sides in the West. In the US, the Trump administration is arresting and revoking the visas of foreign students and campus activists, seemingly for their views on Gaza. In Europe, hate-speech laws are enforced with ever increasing vigour by woke technocrats. Even blasphemy laws are making a comeback. The scope of what can be thought and said is narrowing, all across the supposedly free world.

People claim to support “equal opportunity” over the idea of equal outcomes, but when one examines both concepts, it becomes obvious that neither is possible or even desirable. Murray Rothbard understood more than most that equality of opportunity is a chimera.

Does Legalizing Sex Work Increase Human Trafficking?
Topic: Porn, Prostitution, and Sexual Freedom
Source: Reason
One of the most influential social science papers of the 21st century argued that when countries legalize prostitution between consenting adults, it causes more people to be coerced into sex work. The study, published in 2013 in the journal World Development, has been used to stop legalization initiatives around the world and to justify harsh new laws that turn customers of voluntary sex work into criminals, often in the name of stopping human trafficking. Unfortunately, the authors of the study used a flawed economic model and abysmal data to reach their conclusion.

In Honor of Virginia Giuffre, Release Epstein Files Now
Topic: Unspecified
Source: Townhall
The shocking news of Giuffre’s death comes just weeks after she posted bruised pictures of herself online, claiming that she was hit by a school bus speeding “110 km” and had only “four days to live” after “kidney renal failure.” Evidently, Giuffre, who lived on a farm in Western Australia, survived the automobile accident, only to die by “suicide” days later. Considering Giuffre’s sudden death and the need for many sexual abuse victims to receive justice, it is imperative that the Department of Justice finally release the Epstein files and client lists that they have been withheld from the public for years.

Sweden’s elder rape scandal
Topic: Violence Against Women
Source: Spiked Online
The sexual abuse of elderly women by migrant carers was shamefully ignored. In autumn last year, Sweden was shaken by a scandal that shares some disturbing similarities with the grooming-gangs scandal in Britain. It is on a far smaller scale. But in Sweden, as in Britain, it seems that many vulnerable individuals have been raped and sexually abused, while the people whose job it should have been to protect them failed to do so. What’s more, those in positions of authority sometimes downplayed or hushed up allegations because of their low view of the victims and, potentially, the identity of some of the perpetrators.

The IRS Has Only Pulled a University’s Tax Exemption Once.
Topic: Political Correctness

Here’s What Happened. Using the IRS to advance a policy agenda — even a laudable one — can have unforeseen consequences. After Harvard University stood up to reportedly unauthorized demands from the Trump administration that it cede control to the government over everything from hiring to admissions to curriculum design — including engineering “viewpoint diversity” among students and faculty — the president targeted its pocketbook. Much like it had done with other universities, the White House froze over $2 billion in federal funding, most of which supports medical and scientific research. That’s on top of a potential funding freeze of $8 billion unless Harvard agrees to eliminate “DEI” from its curriculum and ban the use of masks. In response to the funding cuts, Harvard has filed a lawsuit.

Millions of women are currently living lives of quiet desperation and degradation, suffering from systemic and serious violations of basic human rights. The Taliban just banned women from receiving an education in or working in the medical field, for instance. (In many provinces, women are not permitted to receive medical care from a man.) The future of healthcare looks bright for them!. This is only one small example of the official oppression they are experiencing. It is to our profound, collective shame that we have turned our backs on them.
