In the hopes of encouraging a more civil, and illuminating, discourse, here is another episode of William F. Buckley, Jr.’s “Firing Line”.
The left-leaning bias of the media has been known for over half-a-decade. Fifty-four years ago, Mr. Bukley took on David Susskind over just such a point that is more evident now than it was even then.
Another “quick takes” on items where there is too little to say to make a complete article, but is still important enough to comment on.
The focus this time: Wokeness has never been so seriously mysterious.
First, a little mood music:
Carrying on…
Your humble author is not one to go hog wild for conspiracy theories, but its shenanigans like this that makes one wonder just what is happening sub-rosa?
“Multiple schools that offer extensive training and educational opportunities on LGBT issues are refusing to say where they get their instructional material, who writes it, and who on campus is qualified to teach it.
“Drexel University, Duke University, Georgia Tech and the University of California, Davis all have active and dedicated LGBT resource organizations that offer students numerous opportunities for learning about lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender culture. The websites for these organizations offer very little information about where the material for those classes and workshops come from.
“The College Fix reached out to each organization multiple times via email and phone asking for that information. None offered it. Reached via phone Wednesday evening, a representative from UC-Davis’s LGBTQIA Resource Center said The Fix‘s queries would be passed on to a supervisor.”
If we don’t have words to describe certain ideas and concepts—or words conducive thereto—it becomes difficult to come up with said ideas, or if one nonetheless has such ideas, it becomes difficult, if not impossible to communicate those ideas to others, let alone get others to understand.
This is why those who come by and insist on definitions and terminology that seems odd and wacky, is actually the cutting edge of totalitarian mind warping, with the goal of creating a “rainbow-painted dystopia”.
This is one of the reasons the “academic” definition of man, woman, straight, gay, and lesbian are so totalitarian in nature: They deny the biological reality of biological sex. By ascribing the words man and woman to “gender identities” rather than biological sex, as well as defining sexuality in terms of attraction to a “gender identity” rather than to one sex (or both), they wish to deny people the very idea of biological sex by making it hard to describe what most people are and are attracted to, and thus at the very least make that seem weird. By insisting that biological sex is a spectrum, and having both males and females being described as either men or as women, the very concept of biological sex becomes alien to people’s thoughts.
Considering the advancements in science that could lead to the creation of catgirls and other human-chimeras, including the advancement of technologies that could result in “bioroids” (biological androids) with synthetically created—and customized—brains, it was only inevitable that actual biological robots (i.e. literal bioroids) were created in the lab.
“One of the most successful creations has two stumpy legs that propel it along on its ‘chest’. Another has a hole in the middle that researchers turned into a pouch so it could shimmy around with miniature payloads.
““These are entirely new lifeforms. They have never before existed on Earth,’ said Michael Levin, the director of the Allen Discovery Center at Tufts University in Medford, Massachusetts. ‘They are living, programmable organisms.’”
And just who do we have to thank for this?
This is a nice sentiment.

However when one looks at the full image…
Ah, the miracle of birth, a beautiful thing where a man gives birth to a baby through his cloaca…
Wait LOL Wut?
News of the Week for Jan. 26th, 2020
In the hopes of encouraging a more civil, and illuminating, discourse, here is another episode of William F. Buckley, Jr.’s “Firing Line”.
With the impeachment trial of a sitting President of the United State happening for only the third time in American history, let us look at the last, and only, time a Republican President had Articles of Impeachment drafted against him.
Another “quick takes” on items where there is too little to say to make a complete article, but is still important enough to comment on.
The focus this time: California, the land of genderless preteen polyamerous Communists!

When you gotta go super-genderless…
“College departments across the country are avoiding the term ‘alumni,’ opting instead to use ‘alumnx,’ even though the original term is gender neutral.
“A Google search of the term ‘alumnx’ returns a long list of results from American colleges using the term, though most are specific to departments and specialized resource centers. They include the University of California-San Diego, Syracuse University, University of Michigan and Loyola University of Maryland, primarily on LGBTQ+ resource pages.
“The term ‘alumni’ is a latin word that derives from the root word ‘alumnus,’ meaning ‘pupil,’ according to the online etymology dictionary. ‘Alumni’ is the gender-neutral plural form of the word. Some websites use ‘alumnx’ and ‘alumni’ interchangeably.”
In the novel “1984”, a character declared that sometimes two plus two equaled five, sometimes two plus two equaled three, and sometimes it is both at the same time.
But there’s no way in real life that anyone would argue that you could get two different results that are equally valid from the same equation, right?
About that…
"Both answers are equally correct"

The brave new rules of gender pronouns are difficult for native English speakers, so imagine just how maddening it would it be for someone who is just trying to learn English.
