MACDONALD: Progressive Red Flags

May 7, 2026 Steve MacDonald

Amsterdam has one of the highest crime rates in the Netherlands despite legalizing prostitution and some drugs. Those are not crimes anymore.

For contrast, America’s most crime-riddled cities, like Memphis, Detroit, and Baltimore, … Read more

Klar: New Study Finds Meat Eaters Share a Surprising Trait

June 25, 2025 John Klar

A new study suggests vegetarians may be “less benevolent” than meat eaters. This may seem counterintuitive, given that among the chief motivations for giving up meat are concern for animal welfare and the environment.

Chinese Toxic Food

July 9, 2025March 31, 2025 Russ Payne

George Orwell’s novel 1984 provides us with the political wisdom: “those who control the present control the past and our future.” Thinking back to the nineties, I ask, “Should treason have been the reason for the Clinton Impeachment?” Monica Lewinsky was the scapegoat in the Senate-conducted kangaroo trial, while the Senate ignored President Clinton’s alleged … Read more

True Cost Food Accounting: Adding Up the Ecological Cost of Groceries

August 4, 2023August 3, 2023 Steve MacDonald

The USDA is almost entirely responsible for obesity in America. That’s the thing where men are overweight. When it’s women, we call it body positivity, if we call it anything, but that’s a rose by any other name. Carrying extra weight is bad for longevity and lowers quality of life. The USDA blames meat.

September 6, 2022September 5, 2022 Steve MacDonald

You are likely familiar with the war on meat, but in recent years, the antagonists have upped their game. Meat puppets among the ideologically complicit media happily repeat their claims without a spec of balanced reporting. And everyone is told to believe something misleading or just false.

Saying “Bring Home the Bacon” is Oppressive to “Disadvantaged Groups.”

December 4, 2018 Steve MacDonald

If milk is the symbol of white supremacy, then bacon is the oppressor of disadvantaged peoples. Meat, the “ancient” cudgel of oppressors. An elitist symbol of ruling class power. A superiority expressed in phrases like “bring home the bacon,” and your “goose is cooked.” Sinister slights wielded by thoughtless elites doing the bidding of the one percent.
