In this episode I discuss the troubling case of a British woman who has just been imprisoned for 15 months for a solitary Facebook comment. Is this really justice?

In this episode I explain how and why the Paris Olympics opening ceremony was both a pagan depiction AND a mimicking of one of Christianity’s most sacred events. We explore the facts as they stand, the contradictory claims, the deficient attempts to cast doubt about what happened, and how the depiction of Dionysus only makes the mimicking of the Last Supper all the more subversive. Most importantly, we discuss why sadness and condemnation is an appropriate and loving reaction, and what we can do now to bring light and not heat in response to this display of debasement and hedonism. ✅ Become a $5 Patron at: www.Patreon.com/LeftFootMedia ❤️Leave a one-off tip at: www.ko-fi.com/leftfootmedia

Last weekend a very diverse coalition of individuals and groups gathered together in Wellington for the Unsilenced event - a one day summit on gender ideology. Just days later, the NZ media outlet The Spinoff responded with a piece of inhumane and unfair reporting that can rightly be described as ideological agitprop. In this episode we dissect that article and show how it has mislead the public and unfairly treated a group of ordinary people for not embracing progressive ideology. ✅ Become a $5 Patron at: www.Patreon.com/LeftFootMedia ❤️Leave a one-off tip at: www.ko-fi.com/leftfootmedia

Last month Black American author, scholar and podcast host Coleman Hughes appeared on the mainstream TV show The View to discuss his brand new book The End of Race Politics: Arguments for a Colorblind America. It’s fair to say that things got extremely awkward when one of the hosts tried to malign his character instead of actually engaging with the substance of his work. In this episode we dissect this interview, and what it might have to teach us about rational dialogue. ✅ Become a $5 Patron at: www.Patreon.com/LeftFootMedia ❤️Leave a one-off tip at: www.ko-fi.com/leftfootmedia
