Harvard Professor Calls Out University’s ‘Exclusion Of White Males’ In Scathing Public Resignation

A history professor who has taught at Harvard for 40 years is publicly calling out the Ivy League school over race-based hiring and admissions policies, a “shocking indifference” to antisemitism, and for its eroding commitment to teaching students about Western history.

“In reviewing graduate student applicants in the fall of 2020 I came across an outstanding prospect who was a perfect fit for our program. In past years this candidate would have risen immediately to the top of the applicant pool. In 2021, however, I was told informally by a member of the admissions committee that ‘that’ (meaning admitting a white male) was ‘not happening this year.'” Hankins said such treatment was not confined to Harvard. After making inquiries with colleagues, he determined that the same “unspoken protocol” was being followed all across the nation.

“When late liberal pedagogy replaced Western civilization courses with global history, serious harm was done to the socialization of young Americans. When you don’t teach the young what civilization is, it turns out, people become uncivilized,” Hankins wrote.

“It should by now be evident why Harvard and its ‘peer’ institutions in the Ivy-Plus category do not offer fertile ground for a new flowering of courses in the Western tradition,” Hankins wrote. “Many now believe that our civilization is on the point of collapse, but few seem willing to take the steps necessary to preserve it.”

I said the first thing that comes to mind with regard to any new technology is whether you believe the civilization is on the ascent or the decline. If you believe the civilization is on the ascent, and you are right about that, then AI will probably on net be a positive and force for good. However, if you believe that the civilization is on the decline...at which point she interjected, "Oh, definitely!"...and then I finished my thought.

If they really believe that, they really believe they wanted to distinguish their videos that are fake from ours that are genuine, then they would leave that up in the corner. But they don’t. They’re just doing that because they think it gives them some legal pretension and that they can fall back and say, well, we warn people legally, and then you can’t sue them.

The other thing is they try to exploit our video. So, they will put headlines with the F-U-word, the F-bomb, and they’ll put it as the headline. Or they’ll say Hanson attacks JD Vance or Hanson does this when we don’t do that. We don’t try to get clicks by being controversial. We try to get audiences by trying to inform them and bring history, politics, sociology, literature, all within a unique package for the erudition and entertainment of our audience.

The final thing is there’s no laws against us that I can tell. I’ve had legal counsel and they’re doing their best, but X won’t take them down. And YouTube argues and Google argues. So, apparently, the Silicon Valley brotherhood feels that these people who must have learned their skills out of that nexus, they’re not doing anything wrong. They’re just taking a product.

But whoever they are, they’re doing things that are bad and wrong, and they should be stopped.

People with wisdom are good at keeping a civilization on the correct path but not so good at knowing what to do with it once it has deviated from that path for a long time. An example of that might be the question of whether the world should have gone down the path of R&D and manufacturing of synthetic chemicals. The wise probably would have determined not go down that path, but in this industrial civilization they weren’t in any position of authority to determine whether that was going to be done; the intelligent (at the approximate level of the 97th Percentile, but not the highest level) were. Now that we have gone down that path, the wise probably can’t help us.

Chemical production outpacing world’s ability to understand the risk, study warns
Feb 16, 2022

With global chemical production increasing 50-fold since 1950 — and projected to triple again by 2050 compared to 2010 — its aggressive pace may outstrip society’s ability to adequately assess and monitor the risk, pushing the planet to the brink, a new study suggests.

There are an estimated 350,000 chemicals or mixtures on the global market, with nearly 70,000 registered in the past decade, and another 30,000 that have only been registered in emerging economies where chemical production has jumped beyond adequate disposal capacity, warns a team of 14 international researchers in the study published by the American Chemical Society.

The emergence of more and more new chemicals that aren’t fully understood puts humanity out of a “safe operating space,” the authors say.

“Chemical pollution has the potential to cause severe ecosystem and human health problems at different scales, (but also to alter vital Earth system processes on which human life depends),” begins the study’s introduction in the scientific journal Environmental Science and Technology.

Plastic production alone increased 79% between 2000 and 2015, the team found.

The range of manufactured chemicals, from plastics to pesticides, industrial chemicals, antibiotics and other pharmaceuticals, has pushed Earth beyond one of what scientists interpret as nine planetary boundaries that act as markers for the Earth’s health. These boundaries include greenhouse gas emissions, the ozone layer, forests, freshwater and biodiversity. However, chemical pollution may have breached the boundary referred to as “novel entities,” or things made by humans and introduced into the environment.

The new study, in part, reviews the evolution of the scientific discussion related to the planetary boundary for novel entities. The scientists acknowledged the data was sparse in many areas, but said the weight of evidence indicated a breach of the planetary boundary.

Higgenbotham wrote: Wed Feb 07, 2024 10:59 am I would put it as, "The weight of the evidence seems to suggest to me..." I read the book in 1996 when it first came out. In the 28 years since, the weight of the evidence seems to suggest to me that the premise of the book is correct. The fact that it can't be proven is a poor argument for anybody (as in a scientist) to make because that's self-evident. That's pretty much like everything else that I bring up in this Dark Age Hovel, or don't bring up if the weight of the evidence does not seem to suggest to me...

The weight of the evidence falls into 3 main categories - all of which have been mentioned at various times: increase in sexual confusion, increase in fertility problems, and increasing weight across all species - all of which can be attributed to other causes.

"Legally Clean" Water: How Modern Water Treatment Actually Works

Safety defined by threshold is safety defined by tolerance, not by health. What we measure determines what we protect. What we ignore determines what we live with.

The Realities Of Modern Drinking Water Treatment
Contemporary water treatment is designed to meet regulatory thresholds by stabilizing chemistry and suppressing visibility, not by restoring biological or mineral integrity.

Modern municipal water treatment is often assumed to be a process that “cleans” water in a comprehensive sense. In practice, it is a system designed to make water compliant with regulatory standards and safe from acute infectious disease, not to restore water to a biologically intact or mineral-complete state.

The primary goals of conventional drinking-water treatment are to remove visible particulates, reduce microbial pathogens, and ensure that finished water meets maximum contaminant levels established by regulation.

These goals emerged historically in response to cholera, typhoid, and other waterborne epidemics, and they remain the foundation of treatment design today.

Treatment trains are therefore built to “manage turbidity” (water treatment language for keeping the water clear looking), disinfect against bacteria and viruses, and stabilize water chemistry so that it can be distributed safely through pipes without excessive corrosion or scale formation.

Thus, modern drinking water systems are engineered to meet concentration-based regulatory thresholds, not to resolve the total chemical burden that modern water now carries.

Modern water treatment is literally designed to keep water’s content invisible, dissolved, dispersed, and diluted below perception. It is almost like saying, “let’s employ methods so that they can’t see what is in their water.” If you think I am being alarmist or don’t understand water treatment, unfortunately you would be wrong.

If you think that delivering water of the highest purity possible is the main goal of municipal water treatment, that would be as ridiculous as thinking the pharmaceutical industry’s main goal is to keep you healthy (sorry not sorry).

Here I will argue that their main goals are twofold: keep the water clear, and keep it from messing up the pipes (Ok, fine, they also want it free of microbes too).

Pollutants / Toxins Not Routinely Tested For
Despite water safety laws, thousands of chemicals found in the water supply are not routinely monitored or regulated. These include:

Pharmaceuticals (antibiotics, hormones, antidepressants)

Endocrine disruptors (phthalates, bisphenol A)

Industrial byproducts (PCBs, volatile organics)

Microplastics and nanoplastics

PFAS and related fluorinated compounds (many remain unregulated)

Newly identified “contaminants of emerging concern” (e.g., flame retardants, illicit drugs, new pesticides)

Natural toxins (algal toxins, mycotoxins)

Resistant pathogens and genetic material (viruses, antimicrobial gene fragments)

Uncharacterized Organic/Chemical Pollutants from Agriculture/Fracking/Mining

Disinfection byproducts (THMs, HAAs) — currently discussed elsewhere

Cyanotoxins (microcystins) — partially covered under algal toxins

Transformation products (chlorinated pesticide metabolites)

EXCLUSIVE: Canada’s Collapse Should Terrify Every Free Person on Earth | Daily Pulse

This is what the final phase of a controlled demolition looks like—and it’s not just happening in Canada.

Something terrifying is happening in Canada—and it’s coming for the rest of us.

As the government moves to criminalize the Bible, Tajana Cekic says Canadians are walking off jobs, turning to underground markets, and quietly preparing for collapse.

Why? Because the system is being engineered to break them—until digital ID and universal income feel like the only solution.

And once that switch flips, you won’t own your money, your home… or even your voice.

We reported this week that Canada is on the road to criminalizing the Bible. Yes, the very book and belief system of the West is being attacked and they’re not even pretending anymore.

This is the case in the UK, Australia, and multiple countries in the West. So what is this aggressive attack on Christianity and Western values? And how did we get here?

Tajana Cekic is a vocal Canadian advocate of freedom and liberty, dropping quality analysis of current events in light of the New World Order on social media. And she’s uniquely positioned to speak on the rise of totalitarian governments, having come from Eastern Europe originally and having lived through it.

Tajana joins us for an insight into how Canada descended into this madness, the patterns she spots all across the West, and what to do about it.

Tajana Cekic opened the interview by sharing a story that’s hard to forget—and impossible to ignore.

She was born in Yugoslavia and fled war as a child, spending five years in a Swiss refugee camp. Years later, doctors told her she had just four months to live. That moment forced a reckoning. It pushed her to search for meaning, question authority, and dig deep into how power really works. Over time, she began connecting the dots.

Then came 2020—and suddenly, everything snapped into focus.

“I figured—it’s now or never,” she said. “I’m not going to stay silent.”

Speaking out came at a cost. She’s had 17 accounts deleted, her websites hacked more than once, and faced relentless smear campaigns designed to silence her. Still, she kept going.

“So as much as I get called crazy,” she added, “I realize I’m poking the emotional bear in some of these people and that they’re waking up.”

Urgent: Please read and share this message from a digitally caged Australian author.

Prison planet is already here. Substack is working for the global digital slavers, depriving Australians of the free public discourse and choice to support independent writers.

This post is an unscheduled urgent message from a former Substack author “Excess Deaths AU (EDAU)” based in Australia. We were subscribing to each other’s publications and I enjoyed their well researched, thoughtfully written articles. Due to the Asutralian draconian censorship laws and technology that they are installing to control the population via digital/biometric real time tracking, this publication is now shut down. The archive of EDAU is available on Wayback Machine, containing biodefence work and naming Australian military-political criminals https://archive.org/details/@excessdeathsau/web-archive

Dear Readers of Due Diligence and Art,

Thank you Sasha for the opportunity to write about the current censorship situation in Australia. It is essential that those who still have a voice are able to speak for the voiceless, and I am humbled by this opportunity.

The situation in Australia is moving extremely rapidly. In terms of the west, we are the canary in the coal mine and as one US reader said to me once “as Australia goes, so the rest of the world - we need to pay attention.”

Many Australian authors are locked out of Substack due to Australian ‘age assurance’ laws. Of course, we know this is not about assuring age to ‘protect the children,’ but is a Maoist-like identification and purge of the creators and dissidents who flocked to Substack during covid Emergency powers. Our content is still up for children to see - this is about demoralising and silencing those who create dissent and critique of governments.

Australian authors were under the impression we would be automatically ‘age verified’ through Stripe or credit card but this is not the case for all. Substack is not even on the official list of government-restricted platforms. https://www.esafety.gov.au/about-us/ind ... restricted

The technology deployed (persona) cannot be circumvented with the use of VPN or Tor and the biometrics cannot be fooled as others have done around the world. This appears to be much more sophisticated than the technology that was deployed in the UK and our individual accounts appear to be flagged. Many authors in the UK, NZ, and Australia are leaving Substack in protest because of this situation - either choosing not to engage, are blocked out, demonetising, or pulling down their content.

Australians are being picked off one by one, alone, and are currently trying to find each other via email. People who had their lives destroyed resisting the vaccine mandates had to rebuild outside the mainstream society using means like social media and Substack. As vaccine non-compliers, it is in our hearts to also not comply with biometric and ID tracking. People are losing their livelihoods once again after rebuilding - not just on Substack but other social media platforms.

On December 27, in Australia, many web browsers will also be subjected to this ‘age assurance’ technology. It is not clear at this point what that means on the ground in 2026. All Australians reading this must be prepared like the beginning of covid - they are coming for the information and we will be tracked. Australians must archive information offline - personal photos, books, art, reports, videos, especially relating to the covid crimes.

People in other nations should be doing the same as a matter of course.

It is my opinion that this is a co-ordinated top-down military-banking control operation like covid except no Emergency powers have been declared (yet). The digital control is being deployed globally and they are testing and implementing in many jurisdictions around the world. Instead, this is being deployed via domestic administrative state with responsibility pushed to third-party providers for storage of data. The parallels between covid and digital control are too numerous to ignore. No one is in charge and no one is responsible - diffusion of responsibility is a key concept of democide.

Please be aware that they are also passing ‘hate speech’ laws in Australia the likes of which we have never seen.

As Katherine Watt rightly wrote in her article, governments (including the US) pass and deploy the most draconian legislation in the liminal space between Christmas and New Years. They do this when people are tired and not paying attention.

Please do not subscribe to EDAU anymore or attempt to interact with me on Substack - it is too late.

Here is my (EDAU’s) full archive on the Wayback Machine https://archive.org/details/@excessdeathsau/web-archive

This is the most important article I have ever written. It is about decentralised leaderless resistance. To sum - we peacefully withdraw our consent, and have the ability to shut it all down. The information comes directly from the Australian engineers and military https://web.archive.org/web/20251220050 ... resistance

(I believe they did not count on someone like me making the connection between this report and the 2,500-year-old Roman protest concept of secessio plebis. Or perhaps they did. It is hard to tell. In any case, this concept may be tailored and applied to all cultures in our current times).

At the bottom of this message is a screenshot of what many Australian authors are seeing. Some may not be seeing this message at all. It is unclear what is happening and access is variable. I have heard that Australians are contesting the age assurance directly with Substack for access. However, I and many Australians are done with Substack and will not comply with using this platform. We have withdrawn our consent and hope to withdraw our content when/if we are physically able. However, this situation has caused a financial mess for many of us, even if we had been anticipating this day. Substack is a digital shock collar.

I would also like to politely and respectfully send a message to those who believe ‘it will never happen to them’ or they are ‘not like those Australians.’

Authoritarianism thrives in arrogance.

Today me, tomorrow you.

This Christmas, I would ask people to please pray for those in North Korea and all incarcerated political prisoners, artists, and dissidents.

Thank you for reading, and for being given this platform. May God Bless everyone reading in the Holy Name of Jesus Christ. May the peace of Christ fill our hearts, each and every one, defeating all evil with light.

Your friend in Perth, Western Australia

Where Our Drinking Water Comes From

Modern drinking water originates from surface and groundwater sources that are presumed clean but are increasingly shaped by legacy contamination, delayed exposure, and system design.

The U.S. faces two overlapping water quality challenges:

Surface water pollution is widespread, complex, and traditionally managed through treatment systems that are literally designed to not fully remove all possible contaminants. This affects many major drinking water sources. The problem with groundwater contamination is that it is pervasive in certain regions and difficult to detect and even more difficult to remediate.

Let’s go deeper, starting in the ground (obviously) and then come up to the surface.

Groundwater — The Myth of the Pristine Aquifer
Most Americans apparently have a perception that groundwater from aquifers is somehow protected by depth, rock, and time, making it seem like aquifers are natural vaults, sealed off from the mess we make at the surface.

An aquifer is not a lake. It is a porous, chemically active, slowly moving system composed of fractured rock, sand, gravel, and clays through which water migrates at rates measured not in feet per second, but often in feet per year. Whatever enters that system does not flush out. It accumulates, stratifies, reacts, and lingers.

About three months ago, after deploying sulfated biotite mineral complexes in my practice, I feel like I changed my specialty from “pulmonary and critical care” to “mineralogy and hydrology,” because the way in which I perform history-taking has drastically changed, “What is the source of your household drinking water, do you remineralize, what kind of filter do you use etc.”

The patients with private wells really do tend to answer both proudly and confidently. I am now learning that they shouldn’t be, because the story of private well is not a good one.

I am very interested to know what other people’s thoughts are regarding where we are on the hyperinflation curve, and whether you believe that we have a couple cycles of ups and downs left to buy and sell… or if you are convinced that we are beyond the point of no return, and that this gold run will only go vertical from here. Please do share your thoughts in the comments below.

Across the continent, including our neighbors to the North, demoralization hasn’t come from a specific war or its aftermath, but from an endless cost-of-living crisis, a widespread drug abuse and mental health epidemic, the collapse of institutional trust, and a society fractured by corrupt politics, technology, and isolation. Culturally, many have given up hope that life will ever get better. The middle class is eroding quickly, and younger generations know they will struggle to afford what their parents took for granted. Worst of all, a majority no longer believes in a divine power and therefore no longer recognizes the spark of divinity within their fellow citizen.

It doesn’t take a global war for a country to lose hope. Debt, despair, disconnection and and a culture that has given up on anything beyond material comfort, hedonistic pleasure, and psychological ease all work just as well.

Most thought the housing bubble was just rent subsidies.

Wrong.
The FHA was selling homes to illegals, using taxpayer-backed mortgages.

“I thought they were just supporting prices via the rental market… but they were actually buying homes.”

Now the market’s cracking.
Prices falling.
Layoffs rising.
Wages flat.
Americans can’t afford to buy.

“We need a sharp correction. Not 50-year mortgages to paper it over.”

And the Trump administration?
“They think they can talk their way through this. They can’t. Claiming a ‘golden age’ is backfiring.”

Ed Dowd says unless they’re honest: about what they inherited, what’s coming, and what it’ll take to fix it, they might lose the midterms.

This isn’t theory.
It’s data. It’s real.
And no one in D.C. wants to admit it.
