The Redefinition of ‘Woman’ Is Beyond Even Orwell’s Imagination
Commentary George Orwell could not make this up. In his book “1984,” he famously coined the term “doublethink,” whereby political leaders change the meaning of language to achieve political objectives. In his work of fiction, this included “War is Peace,” “Freedom is Slavery,” and “Ignorance is Strength.” Today, in real life, we have doublethink at a…
Notes From the Digital Gulag
Commentary As the author of “Google Archipelago: The Digital Gulag and the Simulation of Freedom,” I guess I should not be surprised to find myself squarely in the digital gulag—banished, perhaps permanently, from Twitter and Facebook. Twitter permanently suspended my account several weeks ago, mere days before Elon Musk took over the helm. Although I cannot…

This placebo effect—rather than the treatments…
Appeals Court Dismisses Connecticut Transgender Athlete Case
A federal appeals court on Friday dismissed a case challenging a Connecticut policy that allows transgender students born male to compete against girls in high school athletic competitions. A three-judge panel of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the 2nd Circuit in New York upheld a lower court’s decision to reject a lawsuit filed on…
Why the Redefinition of the Word ‘Woman’ Matters
Commentary Samuel Johnson’s “Dictionary of the English Language,” first published in 1755, defines the word “woman” as “the female of the human race.” And until October 2022, the word “woman” was still defined as “an adult female human being” in the Cambridge Dictionary.

Texas Wins Legal Victory Against Biden Administration’s Push to Legalize Gender Transitioning for Kids
