    Last year was a bit of a wild one for me, and not one I plan to repeat. Yet the path it's started me down has to continue. Now a year on from the police raid in January, things progress slowly.

    Dieuwe de Boer

    I was struck by two stories this week. The first that abortions are up by 9% and the second that the nation's fertility rate dropped to its lowest ever of 1.63 children per woman.

  • Child Sacrifice Increased By 9% During Pandemic

    Opinion
    Dieuwe de Boer

    Based in Canada, Choice42 is one of the few pro-life groups who openly call abortion out for what it is: murder and child sacrifice. The uncompromising visuals are what makes this short video a powerful work of art.

    While New Zealand has experienced another mystery COVID case, Australia is planning a normal Christmas with the virus almost eliminated. But according to our leaders, we must "rinse and repeat" all measures and controls until there's a vaccine.

    Opinion
    Dieuwe de Boer

  • Mexico Isn't Sending Their Best

    Opinion
    Dieuwe de Boer

    The Green party always seems to pick the weirdest and worst examples of immigrants as MPs. They've really outdone themselves this time with Ricardo Menendez, a Spaniard hailing from Mexico.

  • A Short Break & Update

    Opinion
    Dieuwe de Boer

    There will be no livestream tonight, or next Friday, as Trad Tasman Talk is taking a break. I believe that Tim will be doing Friday episodes of Wilms Front instead if you'd like to follow some Australian politics.

  • Book Review: The Tragedy Of Islam

    Review
    Dieuwe de Boer

    Imam Mohammed Tawhidi seeks reformation. It's a word that I am always cautious about, as a genuine religious reformation should lead to conservative and fundamentalist theology.

    Letter
    Dieuwe de Boer

    I received an email from a reader who has just discovered Right Minds and has been reading some of my older content. Two years ago, almost to the day, I wrote "remember M. Arnoud Beltrame, because the French won't."

    The following was sent to me by Justin Cook: I was looking in my spam folder for an email and came across this. It's been sent to my email but I'm not the intended recipient.

  • Life Goes On

    Opinion
    Dieuwe de Boer

    We must acknowledge that Jacinda Ardern is John Key 2.0. She loves to be the messiah of the nation, and so she's far more likely to follow Labour's neoliberal manifesto than usher in some kind of communist dystopia.

  • Are We Seeing The Beginnings Of A Political Police Force In NZ?

    News
    Dieuwe de Boer

    It's been nine months since police raided my home on 9 January 2020, and I realise that I have not made any detailed public updates on events since then. Offers for help poured in and court action got underway quickly.
