Editor of Right Minds NZ, host of The Dialogue on RCR. Follow me on X and Telegram. In addition to writing about conservative politics and reactionary thought, I like books, gardening, biking, tech, reformed theology, beauty, and tradition.
Britain's knife control is a bad parody of gun control, writes Robert Tracinski for The Federalist, and I can heartily agree. I wrote about the subject last year, and it's gotten much worse since then in the UK, as they've started to come for the rest of your cutlery, and now also your toolbox. There are real tweets from the Metropolitan Police.
Israel Folau, an Australian rugby union player, posted a graphic on Instagram with the title "your plan vs God's plan", and after being asked what "God's plan for gays is", he responded, "HELL, if they don't repent." This caused a bit of a furore, but it really shouldn't have.
You're probably all familiar with the Bob Jones column that was published in February by NBR. One of our contributors wrote an article defending satire and free speech, humourously suggesting that Bob Jones be made the "Comedy Commisioner".
Right Minds editor Dieuwe de Boer takes a short break from politics to celebrate the rainbow and then expose the truth about unicorns that the anti-unicorn lobby doesn't want you to know.

The news-cycle in NZ and the US are closely linked, so when a woman opened fire at YouTube HQ in California, it was news over here just as fast. Social media was hoping that the elusive "Trump supporter, NRA member, and Alex Jones fan" mass shooter had finally been discovered.
Early morning on Saturday 31st March, just north of Auckland, a man was shot after he threatened the police with a machete. From what we know, it's a pretty clear-cut case.
This was said a year ago by Julius Malema, a political party leader who has long been calling for the "land expropriation" that is now coming into effect. Apartheid is returning to South Africa.
When I wrote about the Iranian hand-shake affair, I was not expecting to be revisiting this topic so quickly, but this story about a senior staff member being fired from the University of Auckland caught my attention.
On his first day as National Party leader, when confronted by a media inquisition, Bridges recanted his stance on gay "marriage". Hang on a minute: he wasn't actually asked about it. He just volunteered that information out of the blue.
