Often referred to as the “pension pope,” Prof. Raffelhüschen’s study blows a hole in the narrative promoted by pro-migration parties and business leaders, who claim that mass immigration will save Germany’s public finances and the job market.

Israel’s brutality in Gaza may be a sign their colonization is about to end, academic claims

17 days ago -

Writing for the Middle East Eye, Columbia University professor of modern Arab politics Joseph Massad explains why “Israel’s savagery is a sign of its impending defeat.”

He cited numerous examples of how this type of scenario played out in the past, from the 100,000 Kenyans who were killed by the British during their war of national liberation that put an end to the white supremacist colonial rule there in the 1960s to the killing of 1.5 million people in Angola and Mozambique ...

All four implicated researchers have faculty appointments at the prestigious ...

Conspiracy revealed: Over 100 medical professionals expose the ACADEMIC FRAUD that blocked clinical trials for Hydroxychloroquine

June 06, 2023 -

In order to lawfully receive the FDA’s emergency use authorization (EUA) for new mRNA “vaccines” there had to be NO efficacious treatments available to the public. There were many forces that made sure that this hopeless reality came to fruition, even though there was copious evidence that there are many treatments for covid-19 that work. The government blackout on efficacious, antiviral treatments and Big Media’s war against natural immunity was a nefarious plot that leveraged ...

New revelations about Claudine Gay’s selection as Harvard president indicate being black helped her avoid academic scrutiny

March 05, 2024 -

It was clear from the beginning why someone who was so unqualified – with just a fraction of the accomplishments of presidents of other universities and her own predecessors at Harvard – was chosen for the role: she embodies the Diversity, Equity and Inclusion (DEI) ideology that Harvard and other Ivy League institutions are so desperate to promote.

According to the Harvard Crimson, the presidential search committee appointed Gay without carrying out a scholarly review ...

Woke scientists declare “online fascism” after survey into trans involvement in academic STEM programs elicits responses of mockery, scorn

July 25, 2023 -

Upset by the findings of their survey – findings showing that most Americans consider it a joke to even consider trans-whatever as having any relevance in education – five of the more "woke" OSU researchers compiled a study about the sarcastic responses, which they claim serves as proof that "fascist ideologues" are "living 'inside the house' of engineering and computer science."

The team had a really hard time getting their follow-up paper published because, just like ...

Supreme Court strikes down racist “affirmative action” admissions policies at U.S. colleges and universities as progressive left DEMANDS never-ending racial discrimination

July 02, 2023 -

The Supreme Court decided this week that "affirmative action" policies designed to admit more non-whites at institutions of higher learning are unconstitutional. In a 6-3 decision, admissions criteria across American higher education can no longer discriminate against whites.

For many decades, affirmative action was touted as a way to promote "diversity" and boost the representative share of "minorities" that appear on college and university campuses. The program specifically ...

The catastrophic death of fairness

November 26, 2023 -

(Article by J.B. Shurk republished from AmericanThinker.com)

Systemic cheating, however, now dominates Western life.  Elevating “diversity for diversity’s sake” over all other metrics for gauging achievement has reduced merit and hard work to second-class virtues.  Rewarding illegal aliens with amnesty has cheapened the sacrifices of those lawful immigrants who have struggled to integrate into their new home countries.  Allowing delusional men to dominate women’s sports ...

At the University of Glasgow in Scotland, the "big brains" issued a statement as part of an "anti-racism" campaign ...

24 days ago -

(Article republished from ChristopherRufo.com)

Despite her pedigree, questions have long persisted about her academic record. Her publication history is remarkably thin for a tenured professor, and her published work largely focuses on race activism rather than on rigorous, quantitative economics. Her nomination to the Fed required Vice President Kamala Harris to cast a tie-breaking vote; by contrast, her predecessor in the seat, Janet Yellen, now Treasury secretary, was ...

Leftism is the politics of weakness

March 03, 2024 -

Gender, on the other hand, is defined by the CIHR as a spectrum that can change over time – saying that its definition is dependent on people and groups, and the differences in how they experience and express gender. (Related: Alabama lawmakers advance bill strictly defining gender based on biological sex.)

November 17, 2023 -

(Article by Dave Huber republished from TheCollegeFix.com)

On November 9, Gay wrote in an email that the phrase “bear[s] specific historical meanings that to a great many people imply the eradication of Jews from Israel.”

The Crimson reports the faculty letter says “from the river to the sea” has a “long and complicated history,” and that Gay’s singling out of one meaning is “imprudent as a matter of university policy and badly misjudged as an act of moral leadership....
