More Feminist Tumblr Stupidity

Here is a classic in the annals of bad logic: I’ve never met a self-identified men’s rights activist in real life and I’m guessing that’s due to any combination of the following reasons: 1. They realize that their passionate crusade against a fictitious version of feminism doesn’t hold up outside of their Reddit/4chan/meme troll internet […]

God and Man at #Skepticon: Atheist @RichardCCarrier Gets Banned

Richard Carrier mocks Christianity at Skepticon 2011. “I am a feminist because feminism is simply the belief that women should be treated as fairly as men, and there is no factual or rational reason to want the world to work any other way.” — Richard Carrier, 2012 “The accusations specifically against Richard Carrier are, sadly, […]

La Belle Dame sans Merci

  The title of a once-famous Keats poem came to mind when I saw this headline at Memeorandum: Stanford sexual assault: judge facing recall campaign over light sentence The victim of a sexual assault by a former Stanford University swimmer said on Monday she was “overwhelmed and speechless” at the deluge of support for her […]

Feminism is a movement by women, for women, against men. Feminists regard the “male feminist” as […]

‘Gender’ Madness: How Far It’s Gone

Michael Walsh at PJ Media calls attention to this video in which Joseph Backholm of the conservative Family Policy Institute interviewed students at the University of Washington about gender-neutral restrooms: Generally speaking, I don’t watch YouTube videos and seldom recommend them, but you definitely need to watch that one. At about 0:45, he interviews a […]

The New Thought Crime: ‘Adultism’

Adultism “is running amok in America”: Parents know what’s best for their children?

They give us labels […]

Nintendo Fires @AlisonRapp, Who Hates #GamerGate and Supports Pedophiles

  Last month, I wrote this: Irony much? @AlisonRapp is an advocate of perversion who hates #GamerGate. She is an enthusiastic promoter of Japanese anime videogames that have been criticized as fantasy fodder for pedophiles and, in fact, Ms. Rapp has denounced as “censorship” the criminalization of child pornography. Twisted freaks like Ms. Rapp are welcome […]
