“I am a danger to myself and others.” — Hugo Schwyzer, Sept. 30, 2013 “Let’s be clear: Hugo Schwyzer is mentally ill, he has been mentally ill for a long time, and it is highly unlikely that someone suffering from such a chronic psychiatric disorder will ever be completely sane again. . . . “Schwyzer’s […]

The #WomensMarch on Washington: Like ‘Seinfeld,’ It’s a Show About Nothing

  The organizers of Saturday’s Women’s March on Washington are Democrats who are protesting that a Republican won the election. Period.

‘The Straight Mind’ author Monique Wittig. When did feminism become completely insane? Some of us would argue that modern feminism was always crazy from its inception in the late 1960s as the so-called Women’s Liberation movement.
