“But… is it woke?”
OH MY GOD. All of these people’s brain are rotten by culture war crap!
This is a good reminder that the freedom of expression has morphed into freedom of stupidity.
These awful people actually expect to be taken seriously for their moronic bullshit world views.
One of my takeaways is that some of the people aren’t intrinsically awful, they are just un-aware or un-knowing. That some think feminism means female supremacy, or that woke is some undefinable thing they don’t like. And that with some stomach churning effort some people can be reached. I applaud those willing to try and reach them.

That’s a fair point.
I wish COVID had gotten them all.

That some think feminism means female supremacy
Doesn’t help when some feminists think that as well. We have a famous and influential feminist here in Germany (Alice Schwarzer), who did a lot for feminism in 70s and 80s, but now is a reactionary who stands for TERF, censorship, mass surveillance, female supremacy, and “anyone who doesn’t like me is anti-feminist”.
There is a cult of ignorance in the United States, and there has always been. The strain of anti-intellectualism has been a constant thread winding its way through our political and cultural life, nurtured by the false notion that democracy means that “my ignorance is just as good as your knowledge.”
–Isaac Asimov, 1980
Yeah because stupid is loud.
“…do you teach feminism?” … “No, I teach all genders are equal and should be treated as such.” … ‘She buys three kits.‘
The whole article is so enlightening.
this was a great read
It really was. Apart from the general message of it, it was just compelling to read.
There is also the “unschooling” movement. Both of these groups are hard to work with. I was home schooled for two years, about 30 years ago, and we left because my parents had the presence of mind to realize that almost everyone involved was nuts. My mom is a teacher, I had it good, and if she chose to leave it, how bad is it for those kids whose parents don’t really know?
