When a man can declare himself a woman, how do we know what is true or false anymore? The institutions we might once have looked to – from academia to journalism to science – have all rallied around the absurdity that we can change sex at will. Here, Wesley Yang – essayist and author of The Souls of Yellow Folk – explains how a ‘successor ideology’ has captured the liberal mind. It has swapped tolerance and pluralism for brutal authoritarianism. And it has redefined reality itself, embedding lies in the fabric of our institutions. Democracy, Wesley says, is our only hope of resisting it.

Can humans change sex? Is there a third sex, beyond male and female? Can a child be born in the ‘wrong’ body? The answer to all of these questions is a definitive no. The sex binary in human beings is an established biological fact. So why do so many once-reputable scientific institutions now say otherwise? Here, Colin Wright – evolutionary biologist and founding editor of Reality’s Last Stand – explains how trans ideology has distorted even the hard sciences. Plus, he discusses the Imane Khelif boxing scandal and the right-wing threat to scientific progress.

Woke privilege | Musa al-Gharbi 

The woke love to pose as the voice of the marginalised. All their activism, they say, is for the benefit of those who face oppression and discrimination. Here, Musa al-Gharbi – author of We Have Never Been Woke – explains why the real base for woke is the elite. The professional middle class and above use ‘progressive’ ideology to both compete among themselves and to justify their position above the masses. They pass off their own personal interests, he argues, as the interests of those at the bottom. This is a class war disguised as a culture war.

The re-election of Donald Trump has heralded more than just a ‘vibe shift’. Here, Eric Kaufmann – director of the Centre for Heterodox Social Science at the University of Buckingham – argues that 60 years of woke orthodoxy are in the administration’s crosshairs. Policies institutionalised for decades, from affirmative action to PC speech codes, are finally being unpicked. The post-progressive era has arrived.
