John Black returns with the second "wanker word of the week" and this one is the ultimate get-out-of-jail-free card for leftists. "Why is the revolution not happening?" asks the aspiring communist. The answer lies in the word hegemony, if you're a wanker that is.

As food banks are seeing a large increase in demand, the latest budget reveals nearly a billion more in foreign aid to pacific nations. Is this what putting New Zealand first looks like? There is no priority on fixing the housing crisis, but plenty of money to fill the right pork barrels.

When Hillary Rodham Clinton is involved, it's a question of "What do you want first, the bad news or the really bad news?" Our government has given the Clinton Foundation $8 million and is giving them $5 million more. But, wait, there's more.

You’re having a perfectly normal conversation, talking about your weekend. Then out of nowhere the wanker throws around words like 'patriarchal' and 'heteronormative'. After reading my break down of the most common ‘Wanker Words’, you’ll know what he's on about.

Earlier this week, a shocked parent revealed, via Facebook, a pamphlet that her daughter had been given at Massey High, which included information about to hide and use meth. That's only the half of it though.

Family First NZ says that 50 marriage celebrant applicants have had their application rejected in just the past 2½ years. Why are they applying to celebrate something they do not believe in, under a law they cannot comply with?

A Quiet Place, a horror film currently second in the U.S box office, has managed to piss off the kinds of people I feel sure Right Mind’s readers would be quite happy were pissed off. For starters, it's pro-family, pro-life, and pro-gun. The film is also brilliantly acted, paced, and scored.
