Robert Baden-Powell has likely been turning in his grave for at least the past decade as the SJW-adjacent leadership of the Boy Scouts of America have complied with most every PC initiative. Now they appear to be facing bankruptcy.
Mike Roe wrote in May of the “death of the Boy Scouts of America” :
In my opinion, this kind of attrition can only explained by an increasing lack of relevance, or, the perception of irrelevance. Right now, there’s a perception that The Boy Scouts have gone soft. That’s the real tragedy, Sharon, because I can’t think of anything more needed in our country today, than a youth organization that offers kids the same experience I underwent in the basement of Kenwood Church. Why? Because our country’s current obsession with ‘safe spaces’ is destroying character faster than the Boy Scouts of today can build it.
Vegetarians are miserable scolds.
Suzanne Venker sheds much light on the not so hidden hatred that fuels modern day feminists:
To the average person who’s busy living their life, … it doesn’t make sense that feminism, which bills itself as merely promoting sexual equality (a phrase that sounds so utterly innocuous but isn’t), could be so destructive that it rips relationships, families, and society apart.
But that’s exactly what it does. In response to Carlson’s question about why any group would do this, Mac Donald said, “Because [feminists] would rather hate.”

Is there any evidence that this is happening at both ends of the political spectrum? https://t.co/6LcaFbBWwx

Black Lives Matter, the MSM, and other left-wing group peddle emotion. Heather MacDonald deals in facts. This is why those groups feel the need to demonize and destroy her.
In the latest Quillette podcast, Jonathan Kay interviews MacDonald. A fascinating listen, to put it mildly!
December 2016 – Jordan Peterson is endlessly mocked by Leftist “experts” about his concerns about enforced use of transgender pronouns
December 2018 – A high school teacher in West Point, Virginia is fired because he refused to use transgender pronouns.
SDA readers rejoice! You can now determine just how much of a victim you are with the Intersectionality Calculator. Though not perfect, you can answer various questions to determine a value between 1 to 97. The higher the points you get, the more of a victim you are. As per the dystopian rules of social justice warriors, only people with higher victim points can chastise, condemn, and freely destroy the lives of those with lower victim points. Let the games begin!
From the home country of the globalists’ star leader, Emmanuel Macron:

You know, the country where we’re constantly told that its citizens love big government and don’t mind paying high taxes.
Quillette has been featuring a new series of podcasts that have proved to be quite interesting. The latest is an interview with Meghan Murphy, the Vancouver based feminist writer who has been banned for life from Twitter for the egregious crime of stating that “men are not women”. As discussed on SDA previously, Murphy is quite a piece of work in her own right, publicly quite angry with men for a variety of grievances.
She’s now in trouble with the fascists LGBT activists for daring to want to speak at the Vancouver Public Library. While Murphy doesn’t deserve any support, because of the horrible way she has treated conservatives in the past, the thing is, she’s not wrong on this issue.
Debra Soh has written a powerful editorial condemning the new breed of Faux Academics who have infested universities & colleges:
A new academic journal, titled The Journal of Controversial Ideas, launching in the new year, will be peer-reviewed and offer a diverse range of viewpoints, calling upon liberals, conservatives, as well as those who are religious and secular, to submit their work. Most notably, it will allow academics to publish under pseudonyms.
Much of the response to this journal has been criticism alleging that only academics with hateful ideas would require the option to publish under a pseudonym. In truth, facts today are deemed controversial if they deviate from accepted narratives, and professors must self-censor out of fear of being condemned and losing their jobs.
Based on conversations I’ve had with colleagues still working in academia and from what I can tell about recent cases of censorship, the antagonism is primarily from left-leaning colleagues attacking other liberals. The problem has been increasing and was the reason I chose to leave the field of sex research.
The Blue Wave has come to a screeching halt.
Hi Alexandria, would you like to debate @benshapiro? I’ll be happy to moderate and donate all proceeds to the charity of your choice. https://t.co/nPMvSIYO3n

Dave Rubin published this at the beginning of the year but it’s worth watching again:
Everything he said is so bloody obvious yet millions of Canadians & Americans vehemently disagree with him. One wonders what motivates these socialist wannabes, ignorance or malevolence?
Call me cynical, but I can already envision legions of Leftist NPCs (redundant, I know) nodding in agreement about this “brilliant” idea:
Scientists are proposing an ingenious but as-yet-unproven way to tackle climate change: spraying sun-dimming chemicals into the Earth’s atmosphere.
The research by scientists at Harvard and Yale universities, published in the journal Environmental Research Letters, proposes using a technique known as stratospheric aerosol injection, which they say could cut the rate of global warming in half.
The technique would involve spraying large amounts of sulfate particles into the Earth’s lower stratosphere at altitudes as high as 12 miles. The scientists propose delivering the sulfates with specially designed high-altitude aircraft, balloons or large naval-style guns.
