- From LRC: Credential inflation and higher education.
- From Rod Dreher: Silicon Valley and the end of the American Dream. Or it’s not greed when the cool kids do it. Reminds me of one of Steve Sailer’s points, that conservatives naturally put kin first while liberals buy abstractions about loving humanity, other cultures, etc., while actually treating people, their kin, like dirt.
- Modestinus on Evangelii Gaudium. Might this relate to what Dreher wrote and quoted above?
- From the Anti-Gnostic: So many things high-profile women do strike me as just elaborate personal ads. ... Feminism is really only oriented to women in the upper tiers of intelligence and attractiveness. I hear you but what about the fact which Roissy and others have noted that many/most feminists are envious ugly girls? Feminists don't mention, for example, that the realistic job option for most women is customer service for Team Sterling, or stuffing mail-order boxes for Team Sterling. (Women hate working for women, by the way.) Bob Wallace: Feminism is about well-to-do feminist women throwing lesser-paid women under the bus.
Catholic integralism is the true seamless garment.
Don't apologize for things you didn't do, to people who don't believe in forgiveness or redemption.

Andrea Dworkin would be an example of an intelligent, aggressive woman who uses feminism to browbeat sinecures out of institutions from which her repulsive appearance and toxic personality would otherwise disqualify her. And yes, to put it indelicately, a lot of feminism is just c***-blocking by older, unattractive women.
ReplyDeleteSpeaking of, hugely and strikingly disproportionate number of Jewish females are feminist. Judaism really started going off the rails in the 19th century. No idea what happened with that.

ReplyDeleteHVAC technician is looking better and better and . . . ? Oh, but the wag would say, "What about the importance of a good education?" My reply, turn off the TV and read a book!
