Gender Madness: I De-Transitioned & Now Battle Woke Ideology to Protect Children
On today's #NCFWhittle we are joined by Oli London, the social media influencer with over two million followers who spent hundreds of thousands of dollars on surgeries to look like a Korean woman. After living as a trans Korean woman for six months, London transitioned back, saying the changes he decided to make to his physical appearance weren't the answers to his problems.
He joins us to discuss his new book: "Gender Madness: One Man's Devastating Struggle with Woke Ideology and His Battle to Protect Children". In it he documents his own personal identity struggles with gender and self-identity, but he also explores the root cause of the issue of trans ideology and gender identity, tackling the pressures of social media, the education system, media, and other factors that are pushing a growing number of young people into transitioning. He takes a close look at real world examples and examines laws, research, and data to help lift the lid on the multi-billion dollar gender affirming care industry.

Atheism Can't Beat Wokeism. Is Christianity Our Only Hope?
On this week's NCF Deprogrammed, hosts Harrison Pitt & Evan Riggs are joined by journalist and activist Melissa Chen, contributing editor for Spectator USA & co-founder of Ideas Beyond Borders. On today's show, the panel discuss whether Christianity is the West's most potent force in the battle against wokeism.
The discussion expands upon Evan Riggs' essay in the European Conservative in which he argues that "those of us committed to fighting back against the ‘woke’ must come to terms with the fact that only Christianity is potent enough to defeat the cult of diversity, equity, and inclusion. Non-believers need not convert, but it is time for us to get out of the way." See: https://europeanconservative.com/arti...

"They Want to Change HOW We Think. It's Pure Orwellianism" Brendan O'Neill
Can a woman have a penis? Is the West forever stained by racism? Are we all going to die from climate change? To the liberal establishment of London, New York or Sydney, the answer to all of these questions is ‘Yes’. And anyone who disagrees is a racist, climate-denying transphobe.
Our elites have become convinced of some very strange and extreme ideas. And yet there is precious little pushback against them. Critics are cowed by the threat of shaming, cancellation, even arrest. The new orthodoxies of our age are risible, and yet the space for dissent is shrinking.
We need more heretics. Throughout history, it has been those brave enough to puncture the prevailing groupthink who have propelled society forward. But they are in shockingly short supply today. On this week's episode of Whittle, we are joined by author and journalist Brendan O'Neill, who discusses his new book: A Heretic's Manifesto: Essays on the Unsayable.

Black Privilege & Victimhood: When Race Trumps Merit
On this week's #NCFWhittle, best-selling author & award-winning journalist Heather Macdonald of the Manhattan Institute discusses her new book: When Race Trumps Merit: How the Pursuit of Equity Sacrifices Excellence, Destroys Beauty, and Threatens Lives.
Does your workplace have too few black people in top jobs? It’s racist. Does the advanced math and science high school in your city have too many Asians? It’s racist. Does your local museum employ too many white women? It’s racist, too.
After the Black Lives Matter protests of 2020, prestigious American institutions, from the medical profession to the fine arts, pleaded guilty to “systemic racism.” How else can one explain why blacks are overrepresented in prisons and underrepresented in C-suites and faculty lounges, their leaders asked? The official answer for those disparities is “disparate impact,” a once obscure legal theory that is now transforming our world.
Any traditional standard of behaviour or achievement that impedes exact racial proportionality in any enterprise is now presumed racist. Medical school admissions tests, expectations of scientific accomplishment in the award of research grants, the enforcement of the criminal law—all are under assault, because they have a “disparate impact” on underrepresented minorities.
When Race Trumps Merit provides an alternative explanation for those racial disparities. It is large academic skills gaps that cause the lack of proportional representation in our most meritocratic organizations and large differences in criminal offending that account for the racially disproportionate prison population.
The need for such a corrective argument could not be more urgent. Federal science agencies now treat researchers’ skin color as a scientific qualification. Museums and orchestras choose which art and music to promote based on race. Police officers avoid making arrests and prosecutors decline to bring charges to avoid disparate impact on minority criminals.
When Race Trumps Merit breaks powerful taboos. But it is driven by a sense of alarm, supported by detailed case studies of how disparate-impact thinking is jeopardizing scientific progress, destroying public order, and poisoning the appreciation of art and culture.
As long as alleged racism remains the only allowable explanation for racial differences, we will continue tearing down excellence and putting lives, as well as civilizational achievement, at risk.
