1. Speedfreak..lol

2. Her points are valid but the delivery is terrible!

   1. Actually, I appreciated the intensity and breadth of knowledge.
      Delivery vs. points….. I mean this kindly, as I know we are on the same side….
      What a contrast to Obama, who had a great delivery style……on points other people wrote, that he did not understand, based on beliefs that would only bring destruction.

      1. And I think he’s blind as he spoke in 3 word groups, as if the prompter was super sized.

3. Identity politics = fascism. That is the inevitable result, collectivists sharing the same fatal conceit in the interventionist state.

   Why should feminism be any different? It isn’t, having long ago shaken off “women’s lib” for a coercive socialist agenda.

   Not all women are socialists, so not all women are feminists in female fascists radicalized, men hating world.

   Instead of burning bras, they want to burn (male) capitalists and conservatives who reside outside their political favour.

   And God help any woman who deviates from their narrow path of false relativity and narratives.

   They’ll Kanye them in a heartbeat, opining that bitch needs to read and is crazy, unless she adheres to Sharia.

   Then she’s OK. That is the false dialectic and contemporary state of feminist fascism. Islamic misogynists are OK.

   To quote Murphy Brown: I have a lot to say for someone without a uterus. So be it.

   1. I hate to be a bore, but the term “capitalist” was first used by Lenin and Co. I prefer the term “free marketeer”. Part of defeating the Marxist maniacs must be the restoration of language.

4. the ideal future became the miserable now

5. If they get in power the left will make anti-Hilary agitation a crime.

6. Humanism is the antidote to feminism, identity politics, political correctness, terrible education and all of the other problems that Paglia identifies.

   Humanism defined – a philosophical and ethical stance that emphasizes the value and agency of human beings, individually and collectively, and generally prefers critical thinking and evidence (rationalism and empiricism) over acceptance of dogma or superstition.

7. Simple. More intelligent women have figured out that they have two choices.

   They can be the loyal, faithful helpmeets of the western men who created modern technological civilization, splitting the atom, putting one of their own on the moon and returning him safely to the earth among other marvels.

   Or they can make themselves a problem which those men will (not may) one day solve with that technology.

   Womankind will not be able to avoid deciding which of these they want to be forever. Men are quickly automating most of the last tasks (procreation and gestation) for which women remain for now truly indispensable—and there’s no Feministan to which women can be deported once they become more trouble than they’re worth.

   If the feminists get the gender war they think they want, all men can guarantee their treacherous sisters is that the sisterhood will be utterly defeated.

   1. Men and women who treat each other with affection and respect and are able to work together to raise their children will be the winners. Feminists and MRAs/MGTOW will either not find mates or will psychologically destroy their children through bitterness and anger. But, by all means, keep waiting for that magical, mechanical womb.

      1. “Men and women who treat each other with affection and respect and are able to work together to raise their children will be the winners.” Hopefully you are right in the long run, and most families still work on that basis, but these families control nothing except their personal households. The overall trend for society does not look good at the moment as these fascists are calling the shots everywhere.

         Paglia may well be right that western civilization will collapse if this rabid feminism is not checked. But then what? Will our civilization resurrect itself or will a 7th century civilization “fix” things?

      2. They need to find Christ and follow the Commandments and His teaching. That would help far more than any such nonsense as secular humanism. Secular humanism has taken us to the point we find ourselves and it is not a good place.

   2. ” the western men who created modern technological civilization, splitting the atom, putting one of their own on the moon and returning him safely to the earth among other marvels.”

      All those men are dead, and women might be interested in doing those things instead of being ‘help meats’.

      1. Always amusing to see a virgin declaring what women want.

         1. Not only that, but you would have a better chance of a fabrication shop laborer coming up with a workable space exploration probe design than a dangerhair feminist who runs around obsessing over genitalia and being a shrieking harridan over Trump/imaginary rape culture/gamergate.

      2. Unme: The social justice wanker masquerading as a libertarian.

8. It doesn’t matter if they don’t support it; they don’t say anything either.

   Like the Germans who did nothing about Hitler; they are irrelevant.

9. Paglia’s original feminism was all about … equality … not about CRUSHING the opposite sex. Not about Un-sexing the opposite sex. Paglia takes a live and let live liberal viewpoint. She’s a lesbian, but not a clipped hair mean faced militant HATER version of lesbian. She’s the brand of gay that I find quite compatible with all us “heteronormatives”. Not IN MY FACE forcing me to bake a dildo-shaped cake for their in-your-face “wedding”. She actually seems to understand men better than the average hetero woman, and she gives men their due as traditional supporters and protectors of women. I believe she would say that … “a woman without a man, is like a robbery victim without a handgun” … not that thing about fish and bicycles.

   1. Paglia strikes me as the “queen bee” type. While she makes some good points, I remember an article she wrote about young women going back to the apartments of young men and getting raped. She stupidly wrote that (sic) “part of the excitement the women felt going there was due to the risk”, which is an astonishingly sick thing to say. Being a young woman once myself, I certainly never found it “exciting” to be at risk of sexual assault for being alone with a man.

10. so basically this story provides proof #548 that when an organization starts to mature, the raison d’etre will be neglected and forgotten and instead will morph into another path to power by sumbuddy on the political spectrum.

    the more thangs change the more they change . . . . . . back?
