Imagine if you were a child of the 1970s or 80s in Britain, and you went into a coma, and then awoke in 2025. I’m sure lots would startle you about how things have changed, especially technologically. But I doubt there’d be much that would shock you more than the following four things:
1) The absurd phenomenon of men competing in women’s sports, using women’s toilets, and being incarcerated in women’s prisons, where a significant proportion of the nation’s population is actively encouraging it, and witch hunting those who actually stand up for real women’s rights and oppose it. š
2) That so many people have become so insane and hysterical about climate change and alarmist environmentalism, and can’t see through the scam artists at the top who are pushing this for their own ideological and financial agenda. š
3) The severe undermining of robust debate and free speech in mainstream institutions, but especially in universities. Universities, once bastions of learning, free enquiry and spirited debate, are now havens of woke, supine, censorious cancel culture, almost unrecognisable from the institutions of academic excellence that once defined them. š
4) Or on a lighter note, that the writer of the blog you're currently
reading has been churning out posts of such scintillating quality, unflagging wit and unbroken
consistency for so many years - and yet still walks among the unfamous, with no viral YouTube channel to his name. š
