“Shelley Garland” even sounds like the name of a feminist activist. This guy is brilliant!

The guy should be a hero to the journalistic community if his true goal was as stated.

He quit. Maybe he was told to quit, but we don’t know that.

Something else is going on here that isn’t in the story.

Maybe he has a much better job as a result of this great piece of investigative journalism that he did.

Did anyone ever ask how it was, that Huffpo people allowed such an article in the first place??

You know that an article on denying the vote to blacks or women would never have been allowed in the first place. Yet an article about denying the vote to white men, was not considered to be out of bounds right off the bat. It was allowed, presumably as part of acceptable political discourse.

“...Marius Roodt, a think-tank employee from Johannesberg,...”

Uh, methinks we have found the shortest explanation of the problem here, Mac.

Wouldn’t it be funny if all non white males all of sudden became sterile so the only way these femnazis could ever get pregnant is with a saved seed which would soon run out or a white male seed?

In 125 years most people on the planet would be white assuming Asian people are already white.

A man or a woman? The picture looks like a man who “transitioned to a woman.”
Whatever it is, it can go to hell.
