UPDATE:
This post was updated at around 7:30 pm on 2/14 to reflect that the Sun-King, a/k/a Governor Chris Sununu, at some point today (unclear exactly when), had the woke-mind-virus “guidance” removed. While the Sun-King presumably thinks that he has put the issue to bed, he has NOT. Questions remain. Who hired the woke-mind-virus infected person who posted the guidance, and why has this person not been TERMINATED? The original post follows
After reading Skip’s post about xenopronouns, it occurs to me that a lot of people seem to be missing the point of pronouns. The essential function of a pronoun is to make it possible to talk about someone that you don’t know anything about, e.g., Whoever wrote this didn’t know what he was talking about, … Read more
First, it was “regular pronouns but with orders to use them in ways that broke standard English. All because of somebody’s idea that their professed sexuality was meaningful to me (note: no, it isn’t, and I still don’t care).
It never ends, does it? The Left never stops, never gives up. We who simply just want to be left alone and want Government to do what we pay it to do and nothing more and nothing less have to learn that lesson. “You WILL be made to care” (Erick Erickson) you can add “If … Read more
October 19th was international pronouns day, and I missed it. What a bummer, not that I have a clue what an international pronoun might be,
And of COURSE, it is the Population of the Perpetual Dismalness. It isn’t that their priorities are wrong, it’s also their outrage at the rest of us that do not share that outrage. They KNOW it is outrageous that we don’t share their outraged value set. Which makes it absolutely hilarious when we laugh at … Read more
One of the many failings of Sun-King Sununu … from the perspective of those who expect politicians who call themselves Republicans to act like Republicans … is his cowardice and complicity towards CRT and grooming. In contrast, Virginia Governor Glenn Youngkin is on the side of AND ACTUALLY FIGHTING FOR parents and students:
With the growing list of genders, kids are getting creative when asked what pronouns they want their teachers to use at school. In this article they say there is 68 genders. In this list, compiled by so-called experts, there are 16 genders. Here they list 72 genders. Is it any wonder, kids are confused?
Compelled speech is unconstitutional but so what? When you’re dark god says punish the unbelievers, you charge three middle-school boys with sexual harassment for using the wrong pronoun.
And it’s a never-ending series on Government hating on Parents in controlling their kids by using secrecy, ignoring the Law, Curriculum, and, well, more secrecy. Any wonder
Democrats as a party are opposed to choice in education. The rank and file are schooled on it and told this is a hill to die on by people who got rich in politics and send their kids to private school.
We have seen stories from all over the country where teachers as caretakers and educators of children assume “possession” of them as if they were their parents. And nothing says “possession” like telling the kiddos to lie to their real parents.
This is an exciting ruling, and by that, I mean exciting the way a child who has known their colors for years names them correctly. A court in California, of all places, has ruled that requiring proper pronoun use violates an individual’s first amendment rights.
Just so we’re clear (as Vodka!), my headline is hijacked from the Weekly Metro care of Jonathon Van Maren at LifeSite News, who calls it one of the most unappetizing headlines of 2021. So, many inappropriate jokes come to mind.
Massachusetts Question #3 was a 2018 ballot referendum to repeal the Massachusetts law which allows men who claim to be women to use women’s public restrooms and locker rooms. Voting “Yes” was in support of keeping the law.
So, we now have another Transracial person in the news: “I’m not white Hispanic, I’m black!” Well, given that “white Hispanic” really only became a thing when the MSM decided.
It isn’t tolerance or acceptance of what the LGBT Gender Dysphoric are demanding – it is total AFFIRMATION. It is an application of force to change the language and to change your thinking based on willful changes in language.
Emphasis mine: I’ve said it before, and I’ll say it again: I have no idea why the Republicans are so damned silent on wokeness, including the transgender madness. No doubt about it, the American people have accepted gay marriage and gay rights, broadly. But the Left will not accept this victory in the culture war. … Read more
You want to be prepared to pronounce the proper pronouns. Because addressing a total stranger whose “gender preference” you probably can’t predict presents a preponderance of problems. At least for them.
