Immigration Policy
Australians are now living an average of a decade longer than we were just ten years ago, with women benefiting the most from this increase in life expectancy, according to the Australian Bureau of Statistics' report, Life Expectancy. While this is a remarkable achievement and something we often celebrate, it comes with a sobering reality: our standard of living has significantly declined. Although we may be living longer, many are living lives far poorer than they had envisioned - something the media rarely addresses openly.

Europe’s Amnesia: How the West Remembers What It Wants, and Forgets What It Must
Europe has mastered the art of remembrance — just not for everyone. Across cities like Berlin, Paris, and Amsterdam, you’ll find meticulously maintained Holocaust memorials, plaques marking Nazi crimes, and museums dedicated to "Never Again." And rightly so. The horrors of fascism deserve eternal remembrance.

Do you call Sex Love?
I've heard many poets and musicians refer to sex as love. I've heard many doctors and scientists call sex other words such as coitus, mating, sperm donations, copulation, intercourse, and some others. Do you call love sex? Or are you like me? I call sex sex, and love love. If you are like me and prefer to keep a term simple and comprehendable, then you may be interested in my list of vices that fall under the sexual conversation. The reason people like me do not call sex "love" is because of our experience in the six sexual vices which include: Danger, Jealousy, Disgust, Guilt, and Remorse. I will attempt to describe these vices with examples of horrible living circumstances that are quite painful to an individual so that the poets and musicians who wish to comprehend why some of us do not like calling love sex feel this way.

The Invention of Whiteness: How Race Was Manufactured to Divide and Rule
When we talk about race, it often feels like we’re speaking about something ancient and immutable. But the truth is more unsettling: race, especially the category of “whiteness,” is a modern invention — designed not by biology, but by power.

Buried Brilliance: How Global Knowledge Was Erased to Elevate the West
When we’re taught the origins of science, mathematics, and philosophy, the names sound familiar — Aristotle, Newton, Galileo, Descartes. European. Male. Genius. But what if I told you that this “lineage of brilliance” is not just incomplete — it’s a deliberate fiction?

Truth, Theft, and the Courage to Remember: Reclaiming Our Stolen Histories
History, we are told, is about facts. Dates. Kings. Wars. Inventions. But the question I keep returning to is: Whose facts? Whose kings? Whose inventions? I didn’t grow up asking that question. I accepted the timeline I was taught — the one that began in Ancient Greece, skipped to Rome, fast-forwarded to the Enlightenment, then marched triumphantly into the Industrial Revolution. I was told this was progress. That this was civilization. But something always felt off.
