From the left: Vax Mandates\u2019 Huge Costs<\/strong><\/p>\n

Thomas Fazi & Toby Green argue at UnHerd<\/a> that there\u2019s nothing \u201cprogressive about the current move towards compelled \u2014 and in places mandatory \u2014 Covid vaccinations,\u201d which \u201care discriminatory against minority communities, many of whom for historical reasons are suspicious of medicine and the state.\u201d Plus, \u201cmandates are also clearly leading to vaccine hoarding in rich countries, where doses are being forced on younger people, who are little at risk from Covid, while elderly and vulnerable people in poorer countries have been deprived access to them.\u201d And \u201cthe compulsion element has led to a huge rise in distrust of the medical establishment, which will have serious future consequences for medical care.\u201d Obscenely, \u201cthe shared risk from Covid is now being outsourced to Africa through the push for universal vaccination: Poor African countries are required to get into debt to procure vaccines, and vaccinate large numbers of people, in order to protect older and wealthier people in rich countries.\u201d<\/p>\n

Court watch: Radical Pick Will Spur GOP Turnout<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"Stephen
Supreme Court Justice Stephen Breyer announced his retirement last week.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

With Stephen Breyer retiring from the Supreme Court, The Wall Street Journal\u2019s Kimberley A. Strassel notes<\/a>, President Biden \u201cfaces a choice. He can pick a qualified liberal in the mold of Justice Breyer or Justice Elena Kagan and take credit for putting a substantive, thoughtful jurist on the bench. Or he can bow to progressive demands\u201d and nominate \u201can amped-up version of Justice Sonia Sotomayor, all anger, bluster and fiery opinions.\u201d If he does the latter, Republicans will \u201chang that nominee around vulnerable Senate Democrats\u2019 necks in\u201d November. And with \u201cSenate Democrats\u2019 new promise to kill the legislative filibuster, a firebrand Supreme Court pick could further alienate independents even as it electrifies Republicans.\u201d<\/p>\n

Conservative: The Cancer of Identity Politics<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"Harvard\"
The Supreme Court is taking up a case challenging Harvard University and the University of North Carolina\u2019s consideration of race in their admissions processes.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Newsweek\u2019s Josh Hammer<\/a> urges the Supreme Court to rule against Harvard and UNC in the two affirmative-action cases it just took up: \u201cThe propagandist assertion that America in the year 2022 is bedeviled by a sprawling, pan-institutional \u2018systemic racism\u2019 is a destructive lie, but the ubiquity of affirmative action means that university admissions offices do, in fact, propagate systemic racism.\u201d As did President Biden in saying \u201cthat he intends to fulfill his 2020 campaign promise to nominate a black woman \u2014 not a black man, not a Hispanic woman, but specifically a black woman \u2014 to replace the retiring Jewish male justice.\u201d Among the pitfalls: \u201cHow can a justice who knows she was selected purely on the basis of race and gender reasonably be expected to adjudicate cases during her Court tenure that implicate issues of race and gender?\u201d<\/p>\n

Iconoclast: Hippies for Censorship<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"Neil
Neil Young pulled his music from Spotify in protest of vaccine \u201cdisinformation\u201d on Joe Rogan\u2019s show.<\/figcaption>

\u201cHippies,\u201d snarks Spiked\u2019s Brendan O\u2019Neill<\/a>, \u201calways let you down.\u201d Consider \u201cNeil Young. The one-time cocaine-stained hero of LA\u2019s alternative scene, singer of angry songs about Vietnam and the Kent State massacre, participant with Crosby, Stills and Nash in the Freedom of Speech Tour of 2006, is now basically pleading with a huge corporation to silence people he doesn\u2019t like\u201d by demanding Spotify drop Joe Rogan. \u201cFrom protest singer to agitator for capitalist censorship? What a fall.\u201d Sadly: \u201cTo be countercultural today is to be on the side of fear, on the side of censure, on the side of madly believing that vast, unaccountable corporate machines have the right and the responsibility to determine what the rest of us may hear and see.\u201d<\/p>\n

Culture critic: Whither New Music?<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"Woman
Popular new songs now account for less than 5% of total streams, according to The Atlantic.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

\u201cOld songs now represent 70 percent of the US music market,\u201d laments Ted Gioia at The Atlantic<\/a>. \u201cThe 200 most popular new tracks now regularly account for less than 5% of total streams.\u201d Never before \u201chave new tracks attained hit status while generating so little cultural impact.\u201d It\u2019s a \u201crepudiation of the pop-culture industry,\u201d as was the \u201ccultural response\u201d of \u201clittle more than a yawn\u201d when the Grammy Awards were postponed. Even the \u201cmoguls have lost their faith in the redemptive and life-changing power of new music. How sad is that?\u201d<\/p>\n
