Erasing Women - American Thinker

Erasing Women - American Thinker - By Clarice Feldman

"I’m not sure why it’s happening -- perhaps it’s a backlash from the most obnoxious of the feminists and their conduct or the widespread denigration of and discrimination against white heterosexual men, but there’s no doubt in my mind that there’s a concerted attack by the culture warriors to erase women, denigrate them, and allow them only symbolic powers -- like choosing the moronic Kamala Harris as vice president instead of someone with a demonstrated and earned record of competence. 

How long has it been since we’ve seen women we looked up to, like Golda Meier and Maggie Thatcher, wielding political power?

  • Here's a sample of what I mean.

In 2018 when we were told “believe all women” in the context of the Kavanaugh hearings, when his accuser told a fabulous story for which there was no credible evidentiary support and nothing except political bias to believe her...

Elon Drops Best Joke of the Day on Whiny Liberals in the 'Blue Check' War

Elon Drops Best Joke of the Day on Whiny Liberals in the 'Blue Check' War
"...Liberals were seething that the blue checks had been taken away. 
They thought they were entitled to it and were aggrieved that – now – they would have to pay for it, just like everyone else. 
They refused to pony up with the eight dollars...
The mental angst was just something to behold. 
It became the new liberal virtue-signaling thing, to say something bad about Elon Musk and then profess that they would never pay the eight dollars for Twitter Blue.
However, as I observed earlier because they are also petty, spiteful little people, they also wanted to hurt Musk, so they promoted a “Block the Blue” effort to have people block people with blue checks. 
That’s just so juvenile. 
They were using the verified column in the Twitter mentions to help identify the blue checks.
  • But as I noted, Musk figured out what they were doing and temporarily disabled the column, so that they couldn’t do that anymore. 
  • After it was suspended, Musk tweeted, “Checkmate.”...

Biden Set to Grade Military On Its 'Efforts to Advance Environmental Justice' - Collin Anderson
"President Joe Biden will grade the U.S. military and all other government agencies on their "efforts to advance environmental justice" through a new scorecard that tracks their work to fight climate change and deliver "environmental and health benefits to disadvantaged (democrat controlled) communities...
  • Included in the project is the Department of Defense, which Biden will grade on its work to address (spend money) "environmental, climate-related, and cumulative impacts on communities with environmental justice concerns."
...Biden in January 2021 issued an executive order calling on all government agencies to "combat the climate crisis with bold, progressive action."

Celebrate Earth Day With Bright Lights And The Joy Of Internal Combustion

Celebrate Earth Day With Bright Lights And The Joy Of Internal Combustion - I & I Editorial Board
"...Yet that great cause, if we may paraphrase Eric Hoffer, 
  • became a business
  • then degenerated into a racket that not only became a haven for grifters but 
  • also a platform for scolds and eco-religion zealots. 
...At the same time we should also remember this: While the fawning-over-anything-green media will credit the environmental movement for the improvements we’ve seen since that first Earth Day, the truth is, as we wrote in an editorial at Investor’s Business Daily in 2009 that is no longer available online:
“The world, especially in developed nations, is a cleaner — and greener — place than it was when the environmental movement began,” because “through wealth generated by the free market, we have enough resources to move beyond the subsistence economies that damage the environment, enough disposable income to fund clean-up programs, enough wealth to scrub and polish industry.”
Without capitalism, there would be no Earth Day to celebrate...

In today's crazy world, this is a courageous statement.

SO, SHOPPING AT THE FRESH MARKET TONIGHT

"SO, SHOPPING AT THE FRESH MARKET TONIGHT, we were among the very few to buy groceries, because their computer network was down and they couldn’t process credit or debit cards. 
They couldn’t even accept checks because those are run through an ACH payment system rather than deposited in the old way. 
We, however, were able to pay and get out, something only a couple of other customers could do. 
(One older guy, and a couple of teenaged girls who said “we rock it old schoool with cash,” which I thought was hilarious.) ... -- Glenn Reynolds
