Comments Off on 817 – Still singing in the reign (of tyranny) – just music that’s Just Right
Jun292023
As this year’s Canada Day (July 1) and Independence Day (July 4) approach, it is a tragedy that the freedoms once associated with these celebrations of nationhood no longer exist.
Canadians and Americans alike have found themselves living in a reign of tyranny – justified by fighting Covid and climate change, transgender ideology, racism, identity politics and a whole host of make-believe crisis’ created to hide the real crisis of tyranny itself.
One traditional way to protest tyranny has been to celebrate freedom through music and entertainment. We first featured our own sampling of voices “singing in the reign (of tyranny)” at the end of 2021; it is now mid 2023 and that tyranny still continues to reign.
Therefore in continuing the spirit of both protest and celebration, we are pleased to shower you with our second broadcast entirely dedicated to musical selections where the artists not only have something to “play” but something to “say” about the zeitgeist in which we live.
What better way to celebrate each country’s national heritage – of freedom – than with more music that’s Just Right.

Ideas matter. Those that are false can lead to tragic consequences while those that are valid can lead to great opportunities and well-being. But how can we reliably prove which are true and which are false?
In our search for truth, demanding “proof” for everything we know and experience in life is perhaps less an asset than a handicap caused by living in a scientific age. “Blinded by science” is a great expression describing an irrational demand for proof. It is also a good way to describe those who are fooled by demands that we “follow the science,” little realizing that the “science” they are actually following is “political science.”
Fortunately, the road to truth is less about requiring “proof” than it is about articulately and consistently expressing ourselves using ideas based on valid concepts and definitions. Armed with such concepts, it not only becomes much easier to identify the truth, but also easier to reveal those who would change and alter definitions to hide the truth. Such people know that truth is knowledge and knowledge is power.
Naturally, the power of truth represents a threat to those who maintain power through falsehoods and lies. For them, the best way to prevent people from discovering the truth is by controlling or prohibiting freedom of speech. And this is exactly what is being done.
When it comes to validating truth, the “proof” as they say, “is in the pudding.” History has demonstrated that freedom emerges when people express their ideas defined in a way that is Just Right, but the truth is that there’s no way to “prove” it – despite the evidence.

Comments Off on 815 – Just Left—the ideology of irrationality
Jun152023
Being labeled “right wing extremist” still seems to paralyze many on the Right into submission – to the Left.
In reaction, some attempt to dismiss both political labels of Left and Right on the grounds that there are no distinguishing differences between Democrats and Republicans, long identified as being the Left and the Right. Unfortunately, in so doing they have blinded themselves to the enemy while also preventing themselves from using a valuable label in the war of ideas.
Yes, it is true that Democrats and Republicans are essentially the same – because both are on the Left (collectivism), not because the labels of Left and Right have become obsolete. In fact, these labels are needed more than ever before. It is ideas and ideologies that determine what is Left and Right, not political parties or organizations.
Left and Right represent opposite polarities on a political compass that is essential to pointing us in the Right direction towards individual freedom. The necessity of having such a political compass is beginning to dawn upon those involved in various political discussions. As they attempt to explain how we have “suddenly” found ourselves living under tyranny, they discover that all roads lead to the Left. However, they have not yet communicated that individualism and freedom are to be found exclusively on the Right.
The Left has long been operating on a well-organized ideology which, though irrational, has been successful for the lack of any effective rational ideology responding from the political Right. That’s because many on the Right have mistakenly dismissed ideology itself as simply being a manifestation of Leftist intellectual and moral dysfunction. For those on the Right, this is tragic because it is important for the Right to be seen as the polarity that represents an ideology based on reason. Continue reading »
Comments Off on 814 – Awakening to tyranny requires awakening to freedom
Jun082023
With the debut of The Great Awakening, the Great conversation has expanded from an awakening about the tyranny into which we have been flung to an awakening about freedom denied.
Produced and narrated by filmmaker Mikki Willis, the documentary begins by using Canada as its “exhibit A” of tyranny. Highlighting Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s love of dictatorship and his contempt for Canadians and their freedom, the documentary offers Canada as a perfect example of what’s wrong with socialism.
Most significantly, the film challenges the legitimacy of the so-called political “spectrum,” arriving at the correct conclusion that the ultimate political polarity is the struggle between collectivism and individualism.
But “waking up” is just the first step on the road back to freedom. The real challenge ahead requires “staying awake” in the spirit of eternal vigilance.
One cannot awaken to the nature of tyranny in a vacuum. Tyranny is the condition that exists in opposition to the condition of freedom. And unless freedom is understood in a way that is Just Right, tyranny will continue to triumph for the lack of freedom’s being seen.

Putin’s recent warning against the destructive path taken by the Western nations was not the kind one would expect from an enemy, but rather, from a friend.
Citing his country’s experience with its own WOKE ideology in 1917 – then called Marxism – Putin cautioned the Western nations not to repeat a similar history of crimes against humanity.
“We look in amazement…” he began, as he recited a litany of dangerous cultural trends emerging in the Western nations. Quoting the words of Martin Luther King, and lamenting the West’s abandonment of its great literature like Shakespeare to its adoption of racism and “cancel culture” in popular movies, Putin painted a picture of the West that reflected a truth that Western leaders dare not acknowledge.
It was a remarkable speech, given that it was presented in the middle of an all-out American proxy war being fought against Russia in Ukraine. Unlike America and NATO, who continually advocate the destruction of Russia and the overthrow of Putin, Putin himself responded to America’s hatred with an expression of love and deep concern.
And this approach appears consistent with reports that Putin is looking forward to seeing Donald Trump back in power in 2024.
Whatever the future, when it came to his analysis and critique of Western culture’s slide into tyranny, Putin was remarkably Just Right on every count.

Comments Off on 812 – Alien to our experience—the UFO phenomenon
May252023
On the heels of Tucker Carlson’s recent revelations about the UFO phenomenon – in particular the number of military deaths attributed to encounters with UFOs – it’s easy to understand his frustration when he asks: “How is this not a major story?”
Carlson says that the US government has known about UFOs (unidentified flying objects) since 1945 and earlier and has observed that the “federal government has been tracking this and lying about it.” Which pretty much explains why it hasn’t become a major story, and why he asserted that “the media are part of the control apparatus.”
The phenomenon of governments who lie to their citizens via the mainstream media has certainly become a recurrent theme spanning a myriad of issues and events. Fake news stories encompass Covid, climate change, “woke,” vaccines, the Ukraine conflict, the stolen American election, the state of public health care and the economy, the threat of nuclear war, and more.
In the face of these very serious issues, UFOs certainly seem to be an esoteric concern at best. But if even a fraction of what is now being revealed holds true, the implications could be enormous. And according to UFO documentarian James Fox, more revelations about the phenomenon are about to surface.
Significantly, both Fox and Carlson (and many others) are convinced that UFOs are crafts driven by non-human intelligence, and note that encounters with humans are on the increase particularly around military nuclear facilities. This has led to the theory that UFOs are really military advances in technology, a theory which emerging evidence seems to refute entirely.
It’s the stuff of which science fiction is made, perhaps suggesting that this form of art imitates life in more than subtle ways. Even so, for most of us, UFOs remain alien to our daily experiences.
Thankfully, this suggests that so far they do not appear to be an immediate threat or concern to humanity, despite the reported tragic deaths associated with specific encounters. But as humanity becomes a threat to itself, it appears that some UFO encounters have unexpectedly demonstrated what appears to be a concern for our well being.
When it comes to the UFO phenomenon, we may never arrive at a complete understanding of what is Just Right, but in light of recent revelations, it’s certainly becoming easier to eliminate the narratives that have been just wrong.

Donald Trump’s dynamic performance on CNN’s May 10 town hall event occurred in the shadow of a court jury’s finding of liability against him, relating to E Jean Carroll‘s claim that he “raped” her some decades ago. “I was not thrown on the ground and ravaged. This was not sexual,” she explained.
What makes Carroll’s delusional narrative significant is that any court of law would ever entertain such an obvious fabrication in the first place. Clearly a political tactic, it must not be forgotten that Trump is far from being the only high-profile personality subject to this kind of criminal use of the courts.
Perhaps the greater story confronting us is how the courts have become a weapon in the war of sexual politics. Tragically, the most egregious example of this was the recent experience of Bill Cosby which mirrored that of Trump’s. In both cases, the proceedings were corrupt to the core. Continue reading »
