If he’s “good friends” with Van Jones, I questions the author’s judgement.

I had the same reaction. Is she being sarcastic or did C Cup make a Freudian slip?

Yes, the same “top down, bottom up” “the ends justify the means” radical organizer Van Jones.

No thanks.

We’ll all be talking like this. You want to keep your job don’t you? Well, then you will refer to bob as a “same gender loving” individual.
Although, “individual” may be unacceptable as it suggest one who thinks, and acts, outside the approved group.

did you know that "old person" is somehow preferable to "older person" and "elderly"?

Well, it better than 'wizened' I suppose....................

"In the end we shall make thoughtcrime literally impossible, because there will be no words in which to express it."

Currently, the Left proscribes there being any word for "non-whites performing damaging acts against white people because they hate white people". They decree that "racism" only describes actions by whites against blacks.

My good friend Van Jones, incidentally one of the best fathers I know, was a little more, er, careful. “There are times when the term ‘parenting’ is probably a good, neutral option. But I don't agree that ‘fathering’ is a gender-neutral activity, biologically or socially. To father a child means something specific and important. Being a good father means acting specifically as a male role model—so that both sons and daughters know what a good man looks like.” …
Not only her judgment, but her veracity. A communist is always going to be anti-family and never a “good father”, whatever she calls such a thing. And of course she has liberal friends, because she’s a liberal herself.

I worked at UNH for 35 years. That guide was no joke. There is no free speech at UNH. The worst part is that students become offended at almost anything that a professor might say. One senior English professor was suspended for over three years and had to go to the Supreme Court to overturn his suspension. Two middle-aged lesbians were offended when he read a piece written by Little Egypt. The famous belly dancer compared her dance to holding a vibrator under a plate of Jell-O. The word vibrator so incensed the lesbians that they lodged a formal complaint.

Because he refused to either apologize or take sensitivity training, the University suspended him without pay. It took years to get his job back and he had to go to the Supreme Court. I’m pretty sure he made a lot of money off of it as well.

The people in charge at UNH do not tolerate conservative thought or speech.

I have been called a “mother” a few times, but I suspect it was half of a hood word.

“Codger” or “coot” for me, please. On my better days I can qualify for “curmudgeon”, too.

“Being a good father means acting specifically as a male role model — so that both sons and daughters know what a good man looks like.”

Obviously in their eyes, this is an extremely rare thing. They just cant help themselves. The justification for using the word father, is so kids can recognize one later..... if they should ever -actually- see one.

He shoulda been fired,,,,for incompetence. With all the things a senior English teacher could have read from to the class, he picks THAT garbage?

The took the guide down —

They make the guide ‘non-up’.

It is still your responsibility to obey it.

There’s some joke that has the punchline
“because they have trouble saying ‘superior’ after the word ‘mother’”
