New York Times still pushing Chinese propaganda, staffers still don’t care
Staffers at the New York Times are apparently still too exhausted from being angry about Sen. Tom Cotton to have any thoughts on their employer’s continued promotion of pro-communist agitprop.
On Tuesday, as President-elect Joe Biden continues his transition into the White House, the paper of record published an opinion article authored by a high-ranking Chinese government official titled, “Cooperative Competition Is Possible Between China and the U.S.”
The story’s subhead reads, “A former vice foreign minister of China proposes a way forward for the world’s two leading powers.”

Child Abuse? HBO Max Documentary Celebrates 4-Year-Old Boy’s Transgender Identity
This month, HBO Max released the documentary Transhood, a film celebrating transgender identity for children as young as age four. According to director/producer Sharon Liese, the film’s central characters — children ages 4, 7, 12, and 15 — “redefine ‘coming of age.’” Many conservatives rightly condemned the film as “child abuse,” launching a Twitter hashtag “#BoycottHBO.”

Pitiful: Staff at Jordan Peterson’s publisher protest new book plans
The announcement of a new book from Canadian psychologist Jordan Peterson, the self-styled “professor against political correctness”, has prompted dozens of complaints from staff at his publisher in Canada, according to a report.
Vice’s story on Tuesday said that the announcement of Peterson’s forthcoming Beyond Order: 12 More Rules for Life, a follow-up to his global bestseller 12 Rules for Life, prompted “several” staff at Penguin Random House Canada (PRH Canada) to confront management…
Peterson’s daughter Mikhaila tweeted a link to the Vice article. “How to improve business in 2 steps: Step 1: identify crying adults. Step 2: fire,” she wrote. “If you don’t think adults willing to cry to get their way in a workplace is a problem … you’re clearly not in charge of many people.”
Terence Corcoran: Can Ottawa resist the Great Reset?
… Some also diss the Great Reset as a high-profile political sidebar movement created by celebrity “power elites” who meet at the World Economic Forum’s annual Davos event but whose radical ideas are unlikely to survive in the real world.
But the reset movement is more than a product of some sleepy cabal of corporate and political elites, like the Bilderberg Group, the old, much-feared and secret corporate/political organization with which Klaus Schwab was involved. In contrast, the Great Reset is highly public and its advocates entrenched at the top of the world’s governments, corporations and institutions, from China to Canada and now at the top of the new government in the United States.
