Canadian cogitations about politics, social issues, and science. Vituperation optional.
The amazing level of delusion that is present in the the Human Rights Campaign. This is what institutional capture looks like an unhinged denial of reality willing to go to almost any length in an attempt to smear and defame a woman for speaking about the material reality we all share.
If you worry about a rapists ‘correct’ pronouns you really have lost your moral centre and need to seriously reevaluate the so called ‘progressive’ norms you’ve adopted.

The ideologues in charge of the HRC are losing control of the messaging. (That’s why they attempt to tell us what “exactly’ others say and then substitute ideologically approved lies.) This is a good sign because it shows the panic caused when faced by courage of those willing to tell the truth in spite of being widely vilified for doing so.

The truth telling cannot come too soon. The amount of BS per square centimeter is getting fairly high here and the adults in society need to walk it back so we can get back to a reasonable level of discourse and governance.

The problem is that ‘discourse’ requires a common language and this is the primary plank upon which war is being waged between the ideologues who come bearing different meanings for those words and those who respect what’s true and need the standard meaning of the words used to describe it. The meaning of these standard words have been hijacked. That’s the battle ground.
So my advice is don’t give in – never yield ground – to the New And Improved vocabulary meaning but insist we keep to the common language. Only by following this iron clad rule can we hope to redirect the deluded back into the land of reality.

Mak, a problem just as far away in distant lands as Marxism must have once seemed.
Speaking of distant lands and just a wee bit past Robbie Burns Day, reminds me of an afterlife spur-of-the-moment poetry slam between Shakespeare and Bobby Burns. The common theme?
Timbuktu.
Shakespeare immediately came up with,
As I walked across the sand
and gazed upon a distant land
A sailing ship hove into view
Destination: Timbuktu
Fortified by a drop of whisky, Burns said,
As Tim and I a-walking went
Spied three lassies in a tent
As they were three and we were two,
I bucked one while Timbuktu.

All these rapists suddenly get a case of the gender dysphoria the moment they are arrested. That it is very convenient that they will still be able to rape women while avoiding being raped in male prison is completely coincidental I’m sure.

Unfortunately,the say here when Uncle Sam coughs, we all get a cold. With globalization, there can be no immunity. It’s only a matter of time.
