White women are always right? (NPR)

Journalist Helen Lewis, author of Difficult Women: A History of Feminism and The Genius Myth
.
Understanding 'masculinism,' a movement to restore the primacy of men
FA
(Fresh Air) June 24, 2026: Terry Gross interviews Helen Lewis. Masculinism is a belief that feminism emasculates men [making them less masculine], and men should be in control while women stay at home [barefoot and pregnant or] raising children. The Atlantic writer Helen Lewis says the movement is becoming mainstream. More

Online movement to silence women

The men who want women to be quiet
The Genius Myth
(The Atlantic) [Jordan Peterson mansplains. Patriarch, theologian, and right-wing Christian Pastor] Douglas Wilson has a modest proposal to improve American life:

He wants to repeal the 19th Amendment, which gave women the vote.

Difficult Women
In his ideal system, “we would do it in our politics the same way we do it in our church structure,” he told me recently. “And that is, we vote by household.”

Wilson is a co-founder of the Communion of Reformed Evangelical Churches, based in Moscow, Idaho. Over the past five decades, he has built a small empire there, dedicated to disseminating his theocratic vision for the United States: a publishing house, a school, a liberal-arts college, and a video-streaming service.

Blame it all on women???



What TRT can do for you. Inject it now.
His denomination, which has about 170 affiliated churches, counts [macho drunkard] Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth as a member, and Wilson was invited to lead a prayer service at the Pentagon in February. So when the pastor casually suggests disenfranchising half of America, people listen.

  
Get in the cage, okay? šŸ˜€
When I asked him about this position, Wilson said it wasn’t his top priority—“We have bigger fish to [kill and] fry”—but something he sees happening in perhaps 200 years’ time.

I found this intellectual footsie maddening. “If I said to you, ‘I think all white men should be put in cages—but not now; it’s not my aspiration for now,’” I suggested, “then you wouldn’t be interested in a single other thing that I had to say at that point.”

Wilson chuckled. “Oh, I know you’d probably have all my attention.”

Bibi meets Petey to talk about more genocide.
This is twinkly, avuncular Douglas Wilson, the guy who joined a hippie congregation fresh out of the U.S. Navy because he liked to play guitar and ended up leading church services once the regular pastor moved on. This is the same guy who once went on a multicity debating tour with the New Atheist Christopher Hitchens, and bonded with him over their shared love of... More

Eight added rules for nuns are untrue


Ayya Tathālokā: Venerable Bhikkhunī Tathālokā Mahātherī is an American-born Theravada Buddhist nun (bhikkhunī), scholar, and teacher.

She is the co-founder of the Dhammadharini monastic community in California, which includes Dhammadharini Monastery [Nunnery, Abbey, Hermitage] (formerly Dhammadharini Vihara), and Aranya Bodhi Hermitage [1].

She was the recipient of the 2006 Outstanding Women in Buddhism Award, a presenting scholar at the 2007 International Congress on Buddhist Women's Role in the Sangha, and was appointed preceptor for the historically-significant 2009 Bhikkhuni Ordination held in Perth, Australia [2, 3].

Early life
Born Heather Buske in Washington, D.C., in 1968, Ven. Tathālokā’s parents encouraged her to develop the skills necessary to look for what is true. She had early exposure to the texts of the Pali canon and was inspired by reading about the bhikkhunÄ«s at the time of the historical Buddha. At the age of 19, she left college to pursue monastic life in Europe then in India... More:

Our dating life explained by science


8,000 years ago females made a choice that erased 90% of males forever
(Psychryptoria) Dec. 6, 2025: Eight thousand years ago, 17 females reproduced for every 1 male. And 90% of male bloodlines vanished—not through war, plague, or disaster, but through female choice and economics.

This is the story of the "Neolithic Bottleneck (population bottleneck)." Discover how
  • the agricultural revolution (spread of farming) created the most extreme genetic selection event in human history,
  • why Y-chromosome diversity collapsed while female lineages stayed intact, and
  • how this ancient pattern still shapes modern dating,
  • wealth inequality, and
  • reproductive dynamics today.
What viewers will learn:
  • The genetic evidence behind the 17:1 ratio
  • How agriculture transformed mating selection
  • Why hypergamy became an evolutionary strategy
  • The connection between ancient bottlenecks and modern dating apps
  • What this means for our DNA and relationships today

Crop Top Duo say Spirit Airlines is sexist

When Trump 'n Vance win and Project 2025 is implemented, will women have more or fewer rights?
Tara and Teri, the Crop Top Duo, threatened that they better get off for dressing like hot sl*ts.
.
See? We said being hot is hard! It never ends. Stop staring at our crops if you don't like it and leave us be on this hot no A/C preflight seating circus!

This how we handle in Russia: topless (Femen)
Two female American passengers claim they were kicked off a Spirit Airlines flight for wearing crop tops, accusing a[n effeminate] male flight attendant of sexism.

The passengers [neither of whom are named Karen] argue that there was no dress code violation and other passengers supported them, but the situation escalated leading to their removal from the plane without a refund. [Another woman who stood up for them and her child were also booted.]

You will get off my plane and respect my...
Two female passengers have accused a Spirit Airlines [male] flight attendant of sexism after he allegedly kicked them off a plane for their choice of dress, as seen in a viral video.

“It’s just humiliating having to be escorted and treated like a criminal just because we were wearing crop tops,” one of the flyers, whose name is Tara, said.

A video of the spat shows the flight attendants telling the pair to turn the camera off as they protest their purported ejection. “There’s nothing that says you can’t [wear] a crop top,” sputters one of the duo in the clip.


“Dude, just chill.” Teri [who goes by Teresa] wrote in the caption that “everyone else agreed though that there was nothing wrong with what we were wearing and that crop tops are not against their dress code.
“He then continued to treat us poorly and give us no reasoning as to why he wanted to kick us off,” Teri wrote. Tara agreed.

“Other passengers joined in and tried defending us, but ultimately a supervisor lied to us and told us either we would leave the flight or she would bring the police,” Teri explained.

There's a third sex and many genders

Pfc. Sandoval, Seth Auberon, Ashley Wells, CC Liu (eds.), Wisdom Quarterly

(Sky News Australia) July 4th, 2023. Whose side is Piers Morgan on? "Go be equal": Anti-feminist female clashes with pro-female journalist over the preposterous notion of scaling back women’s rights.

That's right. Anti-feminism YouTuber Hannah Pearl Davis clashes with political journalist Ava Santina over women’s rights and equal pay. Female morbid obesity is getting worse, as the average woman in the USA is 170 lbs., which is many stones and kilos over any kind of ideal weight or healthy BMI (body mass index).

Eating cornfed livestock and starchy Monsanto corn itself, we're turning our human-bodies into obese and unhealthy cow-bodies. What we do to others, in this case cows, we soon do to ourselves, it seems.

The CIA put women to work by creating the Feminist Movement, a shocking fact that seems to strange to be true but was an act of war, bringing women into the workplace to replace the men sent out on imperial adventures for the state.

Now the CIA is promoting transgenderism (and transhumanism). For what reason? It is unclear, as there seem to be multiple agendas.

Famous and beloved feminists like Gloria Steinem were funded by the CIA, as was Ms. Magazine. There was an agenda, much like the mind-warping move to make everyone on the Left pro-war when it comes to Ukraine and Russia and indifferent to war as long as it's presented as an anti-Islamic "crusade."

What's worse, no one's allowed to talk about it or is accused of being as nutty as Ms. Davis here.

Yes, the CIA put me on its payroll. It was secret
Was the current Dalai Lama paid by the CIA? Were his relatives and collaborators brought to Colorado, trained by the military, armed and funded and sent back to Tibet to fight a US-proxy war against China? Yes. That makes this hallowed figure of a pope-king (a secular and religious figurehead) a CIA asset, an operative, and he admits it, and the Los Angeles Times openly documents it, but no one believes it, much less Buddhist monks.

Is the CIA doing anyone a favor behaving like this? They do it all the time.

SPRING BEGINS with snow, rain in USA

Joe Rao, space.com, 3/20/23 at 2:24 PM PDT; Eds., Wisdom Quarterly

Weather news girls celebrate springtime!
The glory of spring sort of begins. "Equinox" literally means when night and day are equal (equi - equal, nox = night).

But the earth must have flattened out or something, or perhaps the Gregorian reworking of the calendar -- taking the planet's timekeeping away from the moon -- has gone askew.

This year, "the length of daylight is actually longer than darkness by several minutes," reports space.com. Just look at this phony CGI being presented as actual video of the planet as spring arrives: jwplayer.com.

    Vernal equinox 2023 brings spring to the Northern Hemisphere with a not-so-equal timing twist
    Joe Rao (space.com, 3/20/23)
    Joe Rao, spring season "expert"
    On the equinox date in March, the length of daylight is actually longer than darkness by several minutes.
     
    It's time to say goodbye to winter -- at least in the Northern Hemisphere. On Monday (March 20) at 5:24 pm EDT (2:24 pm PDT) the spring (vernal) equinox occurs.
     
    At that moment, the sun comes to one of two places where its rays shine directly down on the equator. It will then be shining equally on both halves of the Earth (Bhumi, Terra, Tierra, Ertha).
     
    More precisely at that moment, the sun will be shining directly down on the equator at a point over the Pacific Ocean, roughly 1,900 miles (3,100 km) southeast of the Hawaiian Islands.
     
    Not "equal" on the equinox!
    Another complexity involving the vernal equinox concerns the axiom, "equal days and equal nights on the equinox." Yet each year I [Joe Rao] always get at least one or two inquiries asking why that isn't so.
     
    Perhaps someone, skimming through the weather page of their newspaper on the day of the equinox, looked at the almanac box, which provides the local time of sunrise and sunset, and noticed that the length of day and night is not equal at all.
     
    Banned! (ericdubay.com)
    In fact, on the equinox dates in both March and September, the length of daylight is actually longer than darkness by several minutes. Check out the situation for New York City.
     
    As the table below shows, days and nights are equal not on the equinox, but on Saint Patrick's Day: More

    We need a "Malcolm X Day," too (video)


    Malcolm X in Los Angeles May 5, 1962 "Who taught you to hate yourself?"
    (spowertube) Full speech: Malcolm X on Jesus Christ, asking: Who taught you to hate yourself? Malcolm X was one of the greatest leaders in history.

    Malcolm X founded the Organization of Afro-American Unity to fight for the civil rights of Black Americans. He had the gift of articulating his messages in such a way that he could grab a crowd's attention from the first minute of the speech to the last.

    In this speech from 1962, Malcolm X talks about Jesus. He tells how Jesus would be on the side of Black Americans if he were alive. Jesus always came to the defense of the most oppressed.


    Who was Malcolm X?
    (TRT World) Feb. 21, 2020. American revolutionary and preacher Malcolm X lived and died for Black liberation. This is the extraordinary transformation of a man who became a hero for generations. (TRT is a Turkish public broadcast service).


    COMMENTS
    Elijah Arredondo(Elijah Arredondo) It’s honestly disgusting that the [American] school system has never told me about this man. Being a white dude, the only way I really found out about Malcolm was through hip hop and this video. What a joke.

    Sir Charles Glover(Sir Charles Glover) What a brilliant man

    šŸ‘šŸ¾šŸ‘šŸ¾šŸ‘šŸ¾

    Ritah Andy(Ritah Andy) The Most misunderstood man in History... Portrayed as the "devil," and yet he was far from that. He's very iconic.

    If you're not careful, they'll have you hating.
    Malcolm X also talks about police brutality in the Black community in1962. This teaching covers an interesting subject that is the lesson about who taught us to hate ourselves? When we hate what is in ourselves, we will hate also what is in our brothers and sisters.

    When we start loving ourselves, we will start loving our fellows. In this way Malcolm X teaches how it's possible to strengthen each member of the Black community and not let it be divided by anything.

    White/Latino rock-rappers mention Malcolm

    Korn is a nu metal band from Bakersfield/OC that dabbled in drugs and rap, or one could say more than dabbled. They came up with a nice song that never really caught on called "Wicked" with the Deftones' vocalist Chino Moreno from the Life is Peachy album. It gives a nice shoutout to the importance of the legend of Malcolm X in the popular imagination.

    LYRICS: "Wicked" (Korn)
    Yo, Chuck, we got running mixes in the headphones
    Haha!
    Wicked!
    Haha

    [Verse 1: Chino Moreno, Jonathan Davis, and both]

    One, two, three, and I come with the wicked style (style)
    You know that I'm from the wicked crew
    You act like you knew
    But I got everybody jumping to the voodoo
    Yeah, you, you can kick it wicked rhymes, picket signs
    While me and the mob gotta trunk full of nines
    Drop, and I'll slay ya
    Play, play thug-made, ah from the heya
    Ready to buck, buck, buck
    But it's a must to duck, duck, duck
    Before I bust ya
    Looking for the one that did it
    You want my vote, no you're never gonna get it
    ‘Cause I'm the one with the fat, mad skills
    And I won't choke like the Buffalo Bills
    Sittin' at the pad just chillin'
    Larry Parker just got two million
    Oh what a f*ckin' feelin'
    That n*gga done past me the peel
    And I'll slam dunk ya like Shaquille O'Neal
    Like it, work it, baby I'll rock that test tube baby
    Kick it, ‘cause I get…

    [Chorus: Jonathan Davis and Chino Moreno]

    Wicked! I told them not to keep on their fire
    I'm wicked! I told them not to keep on their fire
    I'm wicked! I told them not to keep on their fire
    But now I'm in your face, so you'll keep on your fire (wicked!)

    [Bridge: Chino Moreno]

    Ooh, aah
    Sh*t
    Skoo-ba-coo-ze-zah-heh

    [Verse 2: Chino Moreno, Jonathan Davis, and both]

    Don't say nothin', just listen
    Got me a plan to break Tyson outta prison
    You come my way, ya get served
    Still got a deuce that'll bunny hop the curb
    Nappy head, nappy chest
    Nappy chin, never seen with a happy grin
    Gotta fat frown ‘cause I'm down
    So take a look around
    All you see is big black boots
    Step in, use my steel toe as a weapon
    And it's awfully quiet, they want to label this n*gga
    Do with the sticker, but that's nasty
    ‘Cause I gotta body count like Ice-T
    From here to New York
    I get them skins, and I ain't talking about pork
    You're sly, ya pig, dig, listen from the flow from a so-fro'd Caucasian
    Ah, who didn't know I was as funky as Wilson Picket, but you talkin'

    [Chorus: Jonathan Davis and Chino Moreno]

    Wicked! I told them not to keep on their fire
    I'm wicked! I told them not to keep on their fire
    I'm wicked! I told them not to keep on their fire
    But now I'm in your face, so you'll keep on your fire

    [Bridge: Chino Moreno and Jonathan Davis]

    Ooh!
    Something' here with this sh*t off
    Yeah
    The f*ck out my case, come on

    [Verse 3: Chino Moreno with Jonathan Davis]

    People wanna know how come
    I got a gat, and I'm sitting at the window like Malcolm
    Ready to bring that noise
    Kinda trigger-happy like the Geto Boys
    April 29th was power to the people
    Ya'll might just see a sequel
    ‘Cause police got equal pay
    A horse is a pig that don't fly straight!
    I'm doin' Darryl Gates, but is Willie Williams
    Down with the Pilgrims?
    I'm through with the picket signs
    So I think the job is dead, get out ‘cause I get…

    [Chorus: Jonathan Davis, Chino Moreno, and both]

    Wicked! I told them not to keep on their fire
    I'm wicked! I told them not to keep on their fire
    I'm wicked! I told them not to keep on their fire
    But know I'm in your face, so you'll keep on your fire

    I'm wicked! I told them not to keep on their fire
    I'm wicked! I told them not to keep on their fire
    I'm wicked! I told them not to keep on their fire
    But now I'm in your face, so you'll keep on your fire (wicked!)

    [Bridge: Chino Moreno]

    Fuzz
    Boo-boo
    Hahaha
    Say!

    [Chorus: Jonathan Davis]

    'Cause I'm wicked! I told them not to keep on their fire
    I'm wicked! I told them not to keep on their fire
    I'm wicked! I told them not to keep on their fire
    But know I'm in your face, so you'll keep on your fire
    'Cause I'm wicked! I told them not to keep on their fire
    I'm wicked! I told them not to keep on their fire
    'Cause I'm wicked! I told them not to keep on their fire
    But know I'm in your face, so you'll keep on your fire (wicked!)
