Being university educated used to mean something, no so much anymore.
Canadian cogitations about politics, social issues, and science. Vituperation optional.
Being university educated used to mean something, no so much anymore.
Seems to a be a bit heavy on the killing bit. I’m the sure love is in there somewhere though…

The concept seems straightforward enough.
Bruce Gilley is a professor of political science at Portland State University. Bruce wrote an article in 2017 for Third World Quarterly titled, “The case for colonialism.” This enraged people who called for him to lose his academic position and be stripped of his PhD. The article was retracted due to credible death threats. In 2023, he published a book by the same name. Before his academic career, Bruce worked as a journalist in Hong Kong. This experience strongly influenced his views about colonialism. In 2021, we produced a series on my channel called, “Decolonize Explained” where Bruce debunks the myths around colonization. In this conversation, Bruce and I spoke about the Harvard plagiarism scandal, DEI, and the broader academic landscape.
The BC NDP hate women and their rights, boundaries, and safety. They won’t actually say that, but any legislation that is proposed that safeguards females in their province is immediately struck down. This was the case regarding the Fairness for Women & Girls Sports Act. The NDP and the media’s framing was unchallenged – no transgender athletes were being banned, just people and children had to compete in the category based on the concrete reality of the sex they were born as. No one that is concerned about female rights in our society should even consider voting NDP or Green in BC – their staunch opposition to fairness and reality illustrates they are fundamentally unfit to govern.
The misuse of language is the primary vehicle of the activist woke Left – they manipulate words and meanings and rely on dishonest caricatures of their opponents arguments.
Funny how when captured politicians mention “participation and inclusion” it is almost always at the expense of females. The framing in the media is awesome as well. This is what the bill was for –
“Rustad told the legislature the proposed bill would ensure publicly funded sports events “must be classified by sex, and it limits participation to participants of the biological sex that corresponds to the sex classification.”
He said the aim of the proposed bill was to ensure women are treated fairly.
“There are inherent differences between males and females, ranging from chromosomal and hormonal differences to physiological differences,” said Rustad.
“But more than the obvious differences, over time, women and girls have struggled to be identified as a person. They have struggled to have the right to vote. They have struggled to be allowed to be in certain places, and they have struggled to be paid fairly.”
“Green Party Leader Sonia Furstenau said the participation and inclusion of all children and youth in sports in B.C. should not be used as “political wedges.”
“What we should be striving for in this province is political discourse that brings people together and doesn’t sow hatred and anger and fear,” she said. “We have sports bodies in this province who are dealing with very nuanced conversations about inclusion and participation.”
Here is a letter posted to the BC legislature from a woman who thought that Canada was a progressive country, she’s sorely disappointed.
