RUSH: We just told you about Jody Allard, the feminist writer who compares her own sons to rapists. They’re teenagers. She says they’re not safe because they have penises, and because they have penises they are prone to rape women, and she writes about them this way. And they’ve gotten old enough now that they’re able to find out that she’s writing this way about them, and they don’t like their mother. And she thinks that’s their problem.
Washington Post yesterday, Sunday edition, Kristine Phillips, headline: “Why These Professors Are Warning Against Promoting the Work of Straight, White Men.” So you have Jody Allard whose own sons are rapists because they’re men. And she writes that she’s worried about them because they’re men. All men are barbarians, all men are rapists, all men are predators. This is part of feminist teaching. And now we have this story: “Why These Professors Are Warning Against Promoting the Work of Straight, White Men.”
Ready for a new word? Stand by. “Academics and scholars must be mindful –” Now, see, another thing. The Post treats this as legitimately inspired, legitimately serious. The Post does not mock this at all. The Post thinks, wow, this is cutting edge. This is something that we need to be on the right side of so that our readers realize that we are hip and with it.
“Academics and scholars must be mindful about using research done by only straight, white men, according to two scientists –” Scientists, you see. Yes, scientists, you can’t argue with scientists, lab coats and they look official and they think global warming is — can’t argue with scientists. Like Stephen Hawking, who says if we don’t fix climate change, the world is gonna be 480 degrees in 80 years. Scientists. “– according to two scientists who argued that it oppresses diverse voices and bolsters the status of already privileged and established white male scholars.”
So we cannot promote the work of straight white men anymore because it’s discriminatory and oppresses diversity. Geographers, these scientists are — have you heard — this story contains a term “feminist geography.” Have you ever heard of feminist geography? You’ve heard of it now. Can you imagine what it is? Do you have any idea what feminist geography is? Did you know that geography was feminist or could be? Geographers, people that do maps. People that study geography. These are scientists.
Their names are Carrie Mott and Daniel Cockayne, and they argue in a recent paper that promoting the work of straight white men perpetuates what they call “white heteromasculinism.” Promoting the work of straight white men “perpetuates what they call ‘white heteromasculinism,’ which they defined as a ‘system of oppression’ that benefits only those who are ‘white, male, able-bodied, economically privileged, heterosexual, and cisgendered.'”
Do you know what a cis is, folks? Do you even know that? Snerdley, do you know what a cisgender is? A cisgender is a person whose gender identity matches their birth sex. This is how convoluted this is. You’re born a man and you think you’re a man, you’re a cis. C-I-S, cisgendered. You have to be labeled. You can’t just be a man because some men identify as women. That means they’re not cisgendered. They’re transgendered. Transgender versus cisgendered. Heterosexual versus homosexual. Breeder versus gay. I mean, it’s not s-i-s-s-y gender, it’s c-i-s, cisgender.
Folks, this is insane. This is literal cockamamie. We have to stop promoting the work of straight white men because it promotes white heteromasculinity, essentially. We’ve got to stop white masculinity because it is a system of oppression and it benefits only those who are white, male, able-bodied, economically privileged, heterosexual, and cisgendered.
Now, what is it about all of those characteristics that the left despises? Who are these people that were white, male, able-bodied, that’s bad. See, able-bodied is bad, because not everybody is, it’s unfair. We should stop benefiting those who can take care of themselves, it’s not fair. It is actually discriminatory if you are self-reliant. If you’re able-bodied, if you’re able to do things, take care of yourself, you are discriminatory. And you are part of white heteromasculinity. Economically privileged, heterosexual, cisgendered. All of this, this defines normal!
If you are normal, you are bad for our culture. If you are white male, able-bodied, economically privileged, heterosexual, and know that you’re a man, if you’re a man, you are the problem.
“Mott, a professor at Rutgers University in New Jersey, and Cockayne, who teaches at the University of Waterloo in Ontario, argued that scholars or researchers disproportionately cite the work of white men, thereby unfairly adding credence to the body of knowledge they offer while ignoring the voices of other groups, like women and black male academics. Although citation seems like a mundane practice, the feminist professors argue that citing someone’s work has implications on his or her ability to be hired, get promoted and obtain tenured status, among others.”
So if you’re normal, you unfairly get most of the goodies. If you’re normal, you get most of the jobs, you get most of the money, you get most of the happiness, and it isn’t fair. The unnormal, the abnormal are being discriminated against by the normal. What did we say last week that much of this culture war is about? Changing the definition of “normal.”
“‘This important research has drawn direct attention to the continued underrepresentation and marginalization of women, people of color. … To cite narrowly, to only cite white men … or to only cite established scholars, does a disservice not only to researchers and writers who are othered by white heteromasculinism.'”
What does othered mean? You know you’re an other? Who are othered, researchers and writers who are othered by white heteromasculinism. In other words, these white heteromasculine types, they “other” everybody else. They turn ’em into others because they’re normal, and the others aren’t. They’re discriminating. They’re creating this group of people that are isolated, not normal. These are the words of these two scholars, these geographers who are scholars.
“Mott and Cockayne did not immediately respond to questions from The Washington Post, but Mott told Campus Reform last week that they decided to write about citation practices after observing that research done by white men are relied upon more heavily than those done by experts from other backgrounds.”
So there’s racism everywhere, sexism everywhere, misogyny everywhere. This is this kind of crap that’s ripping up every shred.
Freepers should check her out online. Allard claims she has one son who is suicidal and she admits imagining his death... it looks like she has had other challenges in her life but these revelations and confessions are quite troubling.
I saw that picture when I clicked on the link at Rush’s transcript.
We’re still struggling to find our way around in the darkness that was left when we bid God goodbye.
There’s a kind of noblesse oblige inherent in being human. If you’re rich, so the bible reminds us, then God loves it if you are also generous and willing to share. If you are poor, on the other hand, accept help graciously and thankfully. Not as angrily grabbing your fair share in a class war.
Somehow our modern secular liberalism is falling woefully short of that. But the conservative counter reaction to it is also managing to put any ideas of sacred liberality in the shadows, at best as a statistical afterthought. The bathwater and the baby are being thrown out, leaving behind only the bathtub.
And that’s how I sees it and I calls it.
It is a woeful situation. Demons can be involved in situations like this. Let us pray the power of God against it.
Ultra liberalism is the pursuit of trigger fingers that masks the projection of hate and the heights of a perverse malignancy. The moderate liberal, much like the moderate muslim, both assist in consent fueled by silence keeping the tanks full and the engine humming.
"Beware of selling or giving any animals to a Seattle/Woodinville woman named Jody Allard,a.k.a. Jody Knight. She goes by the online nickname Euphrasie. Allard often attains animals on Craiglist and other online groups, gets bored within a couple of months, and dumps them a couple of months later. Victims have included dogs, cats, chickens and at least one rabbit. Allard and her sometime-babydaddy, James Johnson, have dumped an estimated 20 animals over the past few years, including a dog and two kittens recently. Allard's seven kids are told that the animals went to the doctor." If you recently sold Allard an English Bulldog (pictured below), know that this dog's fate probably won't be good. Allard has been reported to local animal control at least twice in the past year for animal neglect, and to CPS for child neglect."
This “Kind of Crap That’s Ripping Our Culture to Shreds” will continue only so long as the idiots promoting it can make a living.
When the idiots start getting fired FRom their jobs, are unable to get “grant money,” are unable to get hired, are unable to gain tenure, etc., etc., IOW, WHEN THEY GO BROKE, then we may begin to see some sanity return to the popular culture and academia.
Until then, insanity will reign supreme.
It is important for us “normals” to marginalize these idiots to the point that they LOSE THEIR SOURCES OF FUNDING!
FReeper LongWayHome has the best succinct summary of this I’ve seen:
“She’s part of the large & ever expanding self-hating left that plagues the West. The ideology is so sick it has turned her against her own flesh & blood.”

That just really nails it for me.
I’m glad to see Rush shining a spotlight on this. Anything to help people realize what horrible things come to you for buying into Leftist ideology, and this woman is squarely in the mainstream of current Leftist feminism.
Dr. Jordan Peterson has some interesting ideas for identifying and outing Post-Modernist/cultural Marxist professors in our universities so that students can avoid their classes. His talk on this is worthwhile.
Dr. Jordan B. Peterson on how he will stop post-modernists
https://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-chat/3567154/posts
Let him that stole steal no more: but rather let him labour, working with his hands the thing which is good, that he may have to give to him that needeth. Ephesians 4:28
Read this verse a thousand times in my life, the other day I finally "got it" the reason for working is to glorify God by having enough to give to others, profound and so right!
This also surpasses secular liberalism which lacks the God and the joy. Everybody has something God can cause them to share gladly.
Without a Source in the environment that offers better this is like sweeping the tide out with brooms. Don’t bother until a seawall can be built. And till then stay out of the flood area.
I’ll take pushback against the cultural Marxists anywhere I can find it.
If you want to tire a bunch of people trying to sweep the tide out with brooms, then knock yourselves out.
Some people reason as to what battles and wars they should fight and when and how.
Peterson is in the environment. And I’m a Churchill fan.
“We shall defend our island, whatever the cost may be, we shall fight on the beaches, we shall fight on the landing grounds, we shall fight in the fields and in the streets, we shall fight in the hills; we shall never surrender.”
Thank you for pointing me to Dr. Jordan B. Peterson!
I had not previously been exposed to his writings/speeches, and now am hooked; I watched several of his presentations.
Thanks again!
You might give some thought to ginning up a thread exclusively dedicated to exposing Dr. Jordan’s approach to winning the culture war.
I, for one, do not believe we have lost the war, just yet. We are engaged in a fight to the death to preserve Western Civilization, and the enemy is inside the wire!
But, HST, the way to regain the upper hand is to go on offense and end the LIEberal/Socialist/Marxist/Communist/Fascist control of our popular culture and education system.
Dr. Jordan has a great plan to do that, and his plan needs to be heavily publicized!
