Are we dead yet?

by

I think we’ve had a pretty good run given that no one is paid and no one is selling anything. I have enjoyed our conversations over the last few years but I wonder if maybe it’s time to call it quits. Let’s review things first. Winning@failing was crazy and deserved all the attacks. No one … Read more

A new hope?

by

Australia is largely a land of followers. We look to other countries for cues on what to think and how to behave, and we elect and follow those who seem to be better followers than the others. There are, of course, capability people with different ideas, initiative, after all our population is normally distributed like … Read more

Demoralisation and replacement

by

Lenin believed that communism had to be everywhere for it to be truly effective anywhere. This was called international communism. He set up COMINTERN, a Russian government agency which funded and directed communist parties across the world in order to achieve revolution, including in Australia. Even after Stalin (and others’) nationalist communism took over the … Read more

Subprime governments?

Last week, Japan’s 20 year bond auction failed. https://www.ig.com/en/news-and-trade-ideas/japan-s-bond-market-turmoil–understanding-the-causes-and-global-250521 The pressure on JGBs has been going on for a while. Big JGB buyers like local insurance firms have reported big paper losses: https://www.insurancebusinessmag.com/asia/news/life-insurance/japanese-life-insurers-report-major-bond-valuation-losses-536925.aspx The government got yields to fall a bit by promising to issue fewer bonds, but if they do that, then won’t that … Read more

Oh dear.

by

3 years of Albo means more mega immigration, more gas cartel, higher electricity prices, more expensive vehicles, more subversive propaganda via schools and state owned media, more of nobody doing anything much except mining and building investment property portfolios. Dutton has gone, but so what. He was an opposition in name only. Most if not … Read more

Space, community and religion

by

This started out as a reply to Lord K’s post here https://www.ezfka.com/2025/02/22/quis-custodiet-ipsos-custodes/#comment-71078. But since it ended up being an essay and since we need a new post, here it is. We are all pretty upset about the theft of our country by hostile elites, but outrage is just a beginning. You can’t stay outraged. It’s … Read more

Quis custodiet ipsos custodes?

by

Western government, including the USA and Australia have government departments whose role is to audit the performance of the government. This begs a couple of questions: 1. Why did Trump create DOGE rather than give Musk authority over the US Government Accountability Office (USGAO)? I’m not saying that he necessarily was wrong to do so, … Read more

Hate speech and civil society

by

Drew Pavlou posted this and it’s been picked up by onenation: It purports to show an Israeli being told by a muslim nurse in Australia that she is killing jews in Australian hospitals. Given the passing of the hate speech laws, this may have been staged to justify them. It is normal not to trust … Read more

How Australia ceased to be a nation

by

The claim that mass immigration began as part of the ‘populate or perish’ doctrine post WW2 only part of the story and neglects important context. Marc Moncrieff read Arthur Calwell’s memoirs and wrote this review: https://xyz.net.au/2025/01/arthur-calwell-and-his-memoirs-be-just-and-fear-not He quotes: “If Australians have learned one lesson from the Pacific war….it is surely that we cannot continue to … Read more
