Analysis / Bias
The magazine’s content presents a critique of modernity, emphasizing the importance of cultural identity and the challenges posed by globalism. It caters to a conservative audience, focusing on traditional values and perspectives.
For example, under the Politics tag, political articles often critique progressive ideologies and contemporary liberal policies, reflecting a perspective that can be seen as favoring traditional or conservative viewpoints like this Are We in a Liberal Regime? This article does not contain hyperlinked sourcing.
Another article titled Trump’s War on the Deep State presents Trump’s statement as a bold stance against the deep state, hinting at historical conspiracies related to political figures’ downfalls. The narrative aligns with views favoring Trump, emphasizing his commitment to opposing hidden powers and suggesting potential risks for challenging such forces.
When it comes to science they sometimes promote pseudoscience, especially as it relates to climate change like in this article Climate Change And Truth. The article criticizes mainstream climate change science, suggesting a disagreement with the consensus view of climate change as primarily human-caused. It emphasizes a religious perspective that God controls the climate, not humans, and questions the reliability of climate change predictions and the motives behind them. It argues for environmental stewardship from a biblical standpoint, while also implying skepticism towards the urgency and scientific consensus on climate change.
In general, The Postil holds right-leaning views and is not always factual, as evidenced by its light promotion of conspiracy theories and pseudoscience.
