I am still amazed that women are considered minorities even though there are more of them than men.

That's why the Marxists invented words like "marginalized groups" and "White-adjacent."

My mother told me this same thing when I was 12. I didn’t understand it at the time, but I always remembered it.

The last two Popes have been complete disasters. The Catholic Church is dead now for many people.

White people are less than 15% of the world’s population, and they are trying to remove us completely in the few countries where we are the majority.

I don’t see them trying to whiten up Asia or Africa.

Gloria Steinem was by far the most destructive feminist. Until she same along, most public feminists were man-hating bull dykes who most people either laughed at or paid no attention to. However, Steinem was able to sell the same radical feminist ideology in a slick package - telling women they could be feminine and attractive while being feminist harpies at the same time. The formula worked, whereas nobody other than bull dyke head cases saw Andrea Dworkin as a role model. If Steinem hadn’t come along, feminism would have remained a freakish fringe phenomenon.

But that does remind me: how old is Jane Fonda again? I can imagine a long line of vets waiting to use her grave as a latrine.

I’m pretty sure she won’t have a physical grave because of this very probability. She’ll probably have herself cremated and her cremains thrown into the ocean. A lot of “celebrities” do that.

"...I am still amazed that women are considered minorities even though there are more of them than men..."

One of the things the Left loves about Marxism, is that once you enter a protected class status, you stay there no matter what...

...until the next political purge decides that things need to be recategorized to maintain their grip on power.

Everything about “feminism” angers and saddens me. It is the most putrid thing I can think of that has happened to mankind which was done in order to change the foundation of what it is to be human.

I completely understand postpartum depression, with the disclaimer that I understand it as much as I understand typical depression to which both sexes are vulnerable, the helplessness and hopelessness of it. The Dark Cloud that follows you no matter what, and is impervious to any factual data and other information that should alleviate the depression by placing it in context.

I get that doesn't work, and that is the terrible thing about it.

But as I have said on other threads, I ask it in this way overall, especially relevant with the death of Gloria Steinem:


I was this on Pookie's Toons recently, and it made me think:

Men would never do this, defend a man who strangled his three children. A man would never get away with this. Not even close.

So, are woman who defend Lindsay Clancy saying that:

Just asking.

Fortunately, she did not reproduce. And pushed the murder of many tens of thousands of her follower’s children. (Four adult foster children I understand.)

Concur. 100%. It's satanic, IMO ... it's an attack on human nature at its foundation.

That's why the Marxists invented words like "marginalized groups" and "White-adjacent."

Because the term "minority" doesn't really apply to the Left's designated victim classes, the current version of Newspeak favors the term "Underserved", with the implication that white males are responsible for "serving" these allegedly "underserved" groups.

This isn't quite true. You'll recall that for the original Marxists, the "proletariat" (factory workers, and manual laborers in general) were the victims oppressed by "the bourgeois" masters.

The working class is no longer the darling of the left - because the white working class has been d. So rather than fighting a class war, today' left mostly wants to fight wars on behalf of groups that define themselves primarily or solely according to racial, ethnic, and sexual identity.
