Before joining the Nazi Party (NSDAP), Joseph Goebbels (1897–1945) held a doctorate in German literature but struggled to establish himself as a writer and was unemployed. His exceptional rhetorical skills enabled him to rise rapidly within the party, where he became a key figure in disseminating National Socialist, anti-republican, and antisemitic propaganda. Adolf Hitler rewarded […]

According to the survey, 53 percent of Germans are in favor of pushing back the target for climate neutrality from 2045 to 2050. This shift would align Germany with the general European Union timeline and end the current “special path” (Sonderweg) of an accelerated exit.

Australian writers’ festivals are frequently accused of being “pro-Palestinian” or anti-Israeli. The charge is usually made in frustration: panels on Gaza and Palestinian literature are common; strongly pro-Israel voices are rare; and anyone who questions the imbalance is quickly told they are confusing “balance” with “morality”.

Western leftists do criticise Islamic states at times—but they rarely prioritise opposing them, and often treat them with conspicuous restraint. That asymmetry is not accidental. It follows from the same ideological lenses that drive anti-Zionism. Here are the main reasons. 1.

Paxton last year, I wrote that the “broader war over age verification and parental consent online isn’t over.” As we head into 2026, that prediction looks right. The fight has shifted.
