Fucking NY Times (and WaPo assholes)

Well, Isaac, I bitterly resent discovering that in addition to being a sex pest and a mysoginst you were also a homophobe. Luckily, I had already written you off for the former, but the latter is a real cherry on top of your legacy!

Rest in permanence

but of course they do. They can’t not! The New York Times has a clear from-the-top agenda of demonizing all treatment for trans people, and trans people themselves. The questions THEY KEEP ASKING JUST ASKING QUESTIONS are answerable, but they aren’t interested in hearing them.

In one of the strangest calls for bipartisan — or maybe transpartisan? — unity we’ve ever seen, the New York Times (gift link) yesterday offered an op-ed by Jon Shields, a history prof at the very very conservative Claremont McKenna College, arguing that if liberals in academe would like to help save America, then liberal professors should “rescue the GOP” — by becoming mentors to bright young conservative students and by teaching courses on conservative thought. This, Shields argues, would be good not only for the students and for conservatism, but also for universities and American politics.

Liberal profs: “We sent you two boats and a helicopter.”

At this point I recommend we send them a naval battle group, for their unconditional surrender.

I get a feeling that if they did teach actual conservative thought, they wouldn’t recognize it.

“When do we get to the part about rounding up our enemies and people who make us uncomfortable and putting them into camps?”

“Wrong class - that’s the history of fascism next term. In this class we’re talking about sticking to policies that worked a century ago like they are brand new ideas.”

you wouldn’t want the young conservatives imprinting on a liberal prof who might infect them with postmodernism

… in a kind of second Southern Strategy, the Republicans have co-opted postmodernism

The Dems are ready to go back to the New Deal

This is my rule for when people talk about political and non-political, and it works every time. I wish it didn’t.

Political is changing things and “people” don’t like change (Shut up, you don’t count!)

Non-political is the status quo. Nice, quiet and peaceful for everyone (Quiet! I told you to shut up! Stop being political!)
