Wasn't Bill Clinton supposed to be a feminist?

When the Trump "locker-room talk" tape surfaced, I was gob-smacked at how many Clintonistas got outraged.

Whedon’s non-denial denial at the end is interesting.

”…Observe the ugly mess which most men make of their sex lives–and observe the mess of contradictions which they hold as their moral philosophy. One proceeds from the other. Love is our response to our highest values–and can be nothing else. Let a man corrupt his values and his view of existence, let him profess that love is not self-enjoyment but self-denial, that virtue consists, not of pride, but of pity or pain or weakness or sacrifice, that the noblest love is born, not of admiration, but of charity, not in response to values, but in response to flaws–and he will have cut himself in two. His body will not obey him, it will not respond, it will make him impotent toward the woman he professes to love and draw him to the lowest type of whore he can find. His body will always follow the ultimate logic of his deepest convictions; if he believes that flaws are values, he has damned existence as evil and only the evil will attract him. He has damned himself and he will feel that depravity is all he is worthy of enjoying. He has equated virtue with pain and he will feel that vice is the only realm of pleasure. Then he will scream that his body has vicious desires of its own which his mind cannot conquer, that sex is sin, that true love is a pure emotion of the spirit. And then he will wonder why love brings him nothing but boredom, and sex–nothing but shame.”

Responses are funny. One said promoting feminism is the MO of loser-dorks who can’t get laid otherwise.

I was driving across the country from Massachusetts on a whim, and met him when I was passing through Los Angeles.

On the way to where? The middle of the Pacific Ocean?

As anyone with an ex-wife knows, what is said about one (even one as loathsome as this arschloch), you must take these comments with several grains of salt.

He may be a Liberal, but his best series, Firefly, was very, very conservative... the movie, Serenity, even more so.

After the over-reaching government ruins an entire planet with their good intentions (the government researcher cries "People need to know, we meant it for the best", just before one of their creation, the Reavers, kills her), the heroes discover the secret, and try to broadcast it to the galaxy. Capt Mal Reynolds says, "Sure as I know anything, I know this - they will try again. Maybe on another world, maybe on this very ground swept clean. A year from now, ten? They'll swing back to the belief that they can make people... better. And I do not hold to that. So no more runnin'. I aim to misbehave."

And a conversation between the government Operative (an assassin), and our hero...

The Operative: It's not my place to ask. I believe in something greater than myself. A better world. A world without sin.
Capt. Malcolm Reynolds: So me and mine gotta lay down and die... so you can live in your better world?
The Operative: I'm not going to live there. There's no place for me there... any more than there is for you. Malcolm... I'm a monster. What I do is evil. I have no illusions about it, but it must be done.

"Half of writing history is hiding the truth."

Teacher (at a school, obviously beholden to the evil overbearing government, the Alliance: "The Central Planets formed the Alliance. Ruled by an interplanetary parliament, the Alliance was a beacon of civilization. The savage outer planets were not so enlightened and refused Alliance control. The war was devastating, but the Alliance's victory over the Independents ensured a safer universe. And now everyone can enjoy the comfort and enlightenment of our civilization."
