Same Potties, Different Worlds
American Conservative, the ^ | 28 May 2016 | Rod Dreher

A Quartz dispatch from the front lines of the bathroom wars:

For the tens of thousands of refugee women trapped in Greece, daily life is made that much more treacherous by a very basic problem: unsafe bathrooms.

Refugee camps tend to have too few bathrooms, which are often mixed and unprotected, making them hotspots for sexual attacks on women and girls. While there are no hard statistics, reported cases include German guards at a reception center peeping at women in the bathrooms and attempted rapes at bathrooms along the refugee trail.

At Idomeni, Greece’s largest informal refugee camp, which the authorities started clearing this week, there were just 193 bathrooms and 84 showers for over 12,000 people, according to Emmanuel Massart of Doctors Without Borders (MSF). Women there told me they wouldn’t go to the bathroom alone, and not at all at night.

The lack of of safe, private washrooms feeds into a host of daily indignities, women told me.

Sounds truly horrible. How would one fix this, Quartz?

But not far from Moria there is an example of how to do it right. In Kara Tepe, an open facility for nearly 1,000 vulnerable people who have been moved from Moria, the International Rescue Committee (IRC) has built a washing area with signs that clearly designate well-lit, gender-separated washing areas.

Ain’t it kind of funny.

The worst of both worlds is had when you appear to promise gender segregated facilities and yet obviate the promise with your policy (the Target situation, which policy is worded so as to be open to almost infinite abuse).

In places where indoor plumbing is scarce, such as rural India or parts of Africa, women are at risk every time they have to go.

Liberals mandate three restrooms...

“Women”, “Men”, and “WTF”.

So male “refugees” are rapists, but that’s too inconvenient, so they are left trying to claim that these sexual attacks are an inexplicable phenomena that mysteriously appear out of thin air and happen to the 10% women and children refugees only because of their presence in very very evil, also racist, western countries that aren’t respectful enough of invaders’ rights. And, meanwhile, the 90% have to be let in immediately because their rape of the 10% somehow proves the that the whole lot have been fleeing from some violent hellhole (rather than that they are in fact the wandering originators of violent crime).

Wouldn’t it be easier for everyone if they would just tell the truth about things?

This is a third world problem, that I fully admit, I was unaware of.

Women have a basic human right to make a grumbler after midnight - just as much as a man. Has Obama informed these women yet that there should be no fear because they are completely identical to men and can handle this issue? I hope so. It would be good for them to know.

I, for one, am more concerned for the transvestites who have no survival skills and need protective bathroom facilities. No mention of their plight, I see.

In a Time of Universal Deceit — Telling the Truth Is a Revolutionary Act ___ George Orwell

I would modify that ... in today’s world telling the truth is a subversive, counter-cultural act. On par with treason almost.

Truth was banned from the public square and publik skools in th 60s (when JFK was killed by the CIA). It is when the CIA projected the term “conspiracy theory nut” for anyone who had the truth—the same they did with Sen. McCarthy so that Communists (sodomite super-elites who funded Lenin and the Bolsheviks to take over the banks of Russia and kill Christians and destroy most of the Christian churches (the “Kill God” group)) could march through all institutions, even the courts, and takeover America.

Actually it happened earlier-—banning of Truth—when the elite psychopath Ba’al worshippers (secret societies) forced the evil Wilson in as President by their running a 3rd party, T. Roosevelt. JP Morgan encouraged him and had his man run the effort, so that Taft would lose. Wilson was a puppet of the satanic, super-elite, the ones who bought up all the important APs agencies (newspapers to control information) and took over all major textbook/publishing companies, so they could control the “ideas”/thoughts (TRENDS) and what made the top 10 “books” to force conformity and “proper perceptions” in human society.

(Read Eddy Bernays’ book “Propaganda” to understand how the masses have been manipulated and controlled like sheeple, since 1910).

Ray Bradbury stated 50 years ago (and Solzhenitsyn in 78) that the ONLY REASON for MSM in America was for “proper perceptions” of the ignorant masses-—to control “thinking” which was ALL BASED ON LIES and MISINFORMATION (Diane West). ALL your history is like Winston’s in 1984—but America, as Solzhenitsyn stated, believed all the Lies, unlike the Russian people who understood that their government was always lying to them. We had a more effective Pravda in the USA, than even Pravda. (Jokes on us).

Wittgenstein: When you control the Words and Language, you can actually control the desires and beliefs of the masses. (With the internet, many are WAKING UP to the sick Mind Control of our children to produced these evil,non-thinking, emotional Bernie Bots who “feel” because their minds were ROTTED by 12 years of trapped brainwashing and TV watching, etc. (artificial realities, to destroy Virtue formation which WILL collapse culture.)

The purpose of all the Gender Theory nonsense is to destroy all the dignity, chivalry, romance of the Christian Worldview-—for interchangeable drones from the State who won’t even reproduce-—all mystery, dignity is removed from the sexes (Christian Worldview which took 1200 years to dominate Europe). They need to reduce us to just animals (but with ABSOLUTELY NO HUMAN NATURAL INSTINCTS—all instincts in children will be WARPED and ALTERED to destroy REALITY/TRUTH (God). They will make children “believe” (non-thinking “bots”) that “Slavery is Freedom”, Boys are Girls and Sodomy is a Virtue, for the Ba’al Rites of the old men (satanists) who LOVE and need innocent boy sacrifices, whom they will rape, even when dead (Jimmy Savile). Satanic psychopath elites are exactly like Jimmy Savile (and the ones in White House who were supplied little boys for their orgies/rituals by the CIA (Franklin Cover-Ip in the 80s) who literally run Boy-Sex rings, like in the White House and the Child-Sex rings which, along with gun-running to supply our enemies, they were running Child-Sex rings in Benghazi (why the secrecy and cover-up for the lesbian witch, Clinton).

The minds of most adults today can’t even have any coherence or understanding of Reality (man/woman) so they believe whatever DUMB thing the State REPEATS three times (effects of 12 years of brainwashing). No attention span, no understanding of Locke/Adam Smith or profound thinking of the Age of Reason (Christian Worldview). Just tribal, sick, simplistic “feel” minds, incapable of holding complex thoughts. (Bernie Bots-—drugged minds, addicted, lazy, narcissists with lost IQ points.)

Sheeple-—just doing whatever the evil government dictates (Washington, Adams, Jefferson, Madison stated that government is ALWAYS EVIL—and is why it HAS to be limited—but ‘crickets”). We do submit to the unconstitutional slavery and confiscation of our private property (boiling frogs, now) and the few super-elite psychopaths own most land and all the wealth and can create wars to kill off millions, like the Malthusians/Darwinians have been doing since they started WWI—to kill off the moral, mature (masculine) males of Christian cultures to make the female-run cultures easy to manipulate (esp. grooming of their boys).

Muslim refugees will rape more little boys and older boys than girls because they learn to hate and mutilate women (they are misogynous/homosexuals), and they are raised in boy harems (madrassas) where they are abused and groomed to be the little jackboots of the Soros-sick-Baal Worshippers who prefer the young, innocent boys for rituals.

They have to destroy Man/Woman paradigm to get the Jackboots like the homosexual SS troops-—people of no conscience who will do the most evil, diabolical things to even little babies and women.

True Christians could never be the Jackboots and is why Christianity is being banned since the 60s so that the State could force their satanism, atheism, paganism, Mother Earth Worship in our skools. Flip 2000 years of worldview in TWO generations—which they have done. Sodomy is now a Virtue and their NEXT gameplay is sex with the little boys-—like the Spartan/Samurai/Afghani cultures—all pure Man/Boy “love” cultures. (all slave, misogynous, irrational cultures removed from Natural Law (truth/;ogic/reason).

Sorry so long-—but Truth must be understood so we can take back the Minds of our children and grandchildren and go back to true Christianity (Truth)—where there are only two sexes: male/female. All other constructs are to destroy moral formation in children (warp and corrupt them, so they are slaves (irrational/ignorant). Truth will set us Free.

The demand for separate restrooms in public places was a Women’s Suffragette issue back in the late 1800s, early 1900s. Progressive politics of its day.

Because it was a common sense issue that appealed to American ideas of modesty and decency it was embraced by everyone and we all took it for granted.

Now, with the morally depraved being given control of the government under Obama, the very basic right of privacy for women and little girls is being violated and thrown in the trash.

Obama is an evil little freak with no compassion or concern for little people, like some modern day Caligula, and I suspect that more and more of his one-time voters are having trouble ignoring it.
