Overnight Open Thread (6-8-2015)"Nobody is equal to anybody. Even the same man is not equal to himself on different days." This David Brooks column on "campus crusaders" misses a key point. These aren't good, well-meaning people who have just gone a bit too far. They're awful, nasty people using the excuse of "social justice" to justify indulging base desires of power and control. Awful, nasty, horrible people who should be recognized for what they are, denounced for what they are, and shamed for what they are. Because what they are is evil. The Orwellian Nature of Transgender Politics Strikingly, the Guardian writer says people like Bruce/Caitlyn have 'always been women. even when they were "fathering" children'. Notice it's the 'fathering' bit that is in scare quotes, suggesting it wasn't real, while the description of Bruce as a woman is treated as an incontestable truth. War is peace, freedom is slavery, man is woman. Madness. And I'm old enough to remember when this was considered over the top satire and not orthodox au courant thought that you publicly cross at your peril. How Hard Up is Obama For Accomplishments? This much.
Why Are These Men Shaking Hands? The very fact that they're doing it in public tells you how much more chaotic, and dangerous the world has become under Obama's non-leadership. Just because the Obama administration disapproves does not mean that other countries won't act to protect their own interests, even if it goes against the interests of the Obama Administration. Jon Gabriel on the Non-Political Relevance of L'Affaire Jenner What Democrats and the media (but I repeat myself) don't get is that every cultural story is not a political one. No conservative politicos are outlawing reassignment surgery or banning trans Americans from public office. There is no effort to toss Jenner in jail or force E! to drop their latest reality show (unlike similar leftist demands about "Duck Dynasty" and the Duggars' program). Can You Keep Men Out of the Ladies Bathroom? Not if they feel themselves to be women according to a recent OSHA guide. Oh and you can't have a third tranny bathroom either. And can women sue you because there's a man in the ladies room? Probably. Welcome to 2015. Barnard College Will Admit Men Who Think They Are Women But Not Women Who Think They Are Men How would they know, why should they care? A 'Kind Reminder' From Our Chinese Friends and Partners in Peace Crises have a logic all their own so it's best to avoid them lest you end up in an 'unavoidable' state of conflict that no one actually desired. The whole thing reads like it was written by somebody who really thinks he has the U.S.'s number. That's dangerous. The American political system makes the mechanism for going to war a politically complicated thing, and no one person ultimately knows just how resolute the U.S. as a whole is in opposing China's regional aggression. Given the right set of circumstances, America could easily escalate things to a level that the current Chinese regime simply couldn't survive, even while taking a painful but ultimately recoverable hit itself. Denmark Spends £41m Sending Criminal Youths on Caribbean Cruises in a Bid to Rehabilitate Them And recidivists are sent again. The Batterizer is a new device getting a lot of buzz that claims it can extend the functional life of a battery by up to 8x normal by harvesting unused energy inside the cell. What it really is a boost converter in a very small form factor that slips over the battery. And here Dave Jones shows that for real world devices it will at most gain you something like 5-20% longer battery life. Which is something but hardly the miracle it's claimed to be. How could they not include this classic? The Yahoo AoSHQ group - it's got electrolytes and shit. And my twitter thang.
