A few comments about the current dustup at the gigantic message board site Reddit over the firing of somebody with a rather dodgy background named Aimee Knight, previous surname of Challenor.

Yes, it owns "Teen Vogue," which is a big cesspool just like Reddit but unfortunately its target audience are teen girls.

Republican Senator Tom Cotton of Arkansas has introduced a bill that would preserve sex-segregated prisons, which, thanks to the Biden administration, are under attack under the guise of "gender identity." The safety and human rights of thousands of women are at stake.

Note: I didn't realize until after I made the crack about Levine throwing his family "overboard" that the photograph was taken of them on a boat. No, Levine didn't literally do it, and his ex-wife and family are presumably alive and well. LOL! I decided to leave the comment in.
The NYT decided to go full woke and completely disregard the truth on its Twitter page about cross dressing federal official Dr. Rachel Levine's being the first "female" four-star admiral of the U.S. Public Service Commissioned Corps, which is an outright lie. Another new low for the NYT

It has been 57 years since President John F. Kennedy was murdered in Dallas, Texas, and Texas Governor John Connally was seriously injured. Almost as soon as murderer Lee Harvey Oswald himself was killed by Jack Ruby, the JFK conspiracy industry began. It continued unabated for decades, but now with the increasing use of forensics, the conspiracy theories have all but died out. They are there, but they have gradually faded from view. "We" knew the truth about the assassination from the time of that weekend, and nothing has ever been proven to show anything or anybody other than LHO alone killed JFK, Officer J.D. Tippit, and wounded Governor Connally.
The witness in the mock trial ("On Trial: Lee Harvey Oswald") was Buell Wesley Frazier, the man who had often driven Oswald to work. He was the first witness for the "prosecution" in that "trial." The mock trial had real witnesses, a real jury, and a real judge, and it was filmed in London in 1986. It has been released to DVD, which I have a copy.
Notes: John Hinckley was released from prison in 2016.
Arthur Bremer was released more than a couple of years ago, in 2007.
James Garfield's killer was Charles Guiteau.
William McKinley's killer was Leon Czolgosz.

Yet another fool is trying to make history by playing the "gender identity" card, only this time he is in the position of judging an event his daughter is in. No conflict of interest, nosireee.
Of course, he is from Tranada.

Just follow the money, as usual. This time the culprits are Michigan billionaire Jon Stryker and his partner Slobodan Randjelović.
Misspoke when I said the claim porn was "constitutionally protected FROM free speech." Of course, I didn't mean to use the word "from." Maybe it was a Freudian slip.

#sexualrevolution
The NYT columnist Michelle Goldberg recently wrote a column trying to answer why "sex positive feminism" is on the wane, especially for young women. The phrase has nothing to do with sex, being positive, or feminism. It was strictly libertarian nonsense that tried to co-opt what feminism is really about. It was a continuation of the "sexual revolution" of the 1960s, which didn't liberate women at all but was another avenue of exploitation of women by men. The sexual revolution has nothing whatsoever to do with feminism; they are totally opposing concepts, with one objectifying and exploiting women, while the other is about the liberation of women from said exploitation.

#cuties #childexploitation #Frenchculture
The woke left and even the French need to understand the concept of boundaries between adults and children, men and women, before they act knee jerk and thinking anybody who opposes the sexual exploitation of children in film is a "prude" or a "right-winger" while the woke left thinks they are supporting "art" and "freedom." Sexuality is the hill the woke left is going to die on because they are so stupid and shortsighted.
THIS is what I mean when I say the French are seriously screwed-up regarding boundaries between adults and children, men and women. All too many of them have totally degenerate ideas, and they justify the degeneracy by calling it "freedom" and "art": https://www.indiewire.com/2020/09/france-directors-guild-cuties-conservative-americans-1234586596/
France’s Directors Guild: ‘Cuties’ Boycott Is an Attack on Creative Freedom Fueled by Conservatives
www.indiewire.com
Regarding the age of consent and the attitude of the French intelligensia in the late 1970s: It was even worse than I thought. From RationalWiki:
Many prominent French postmodernist "thinkers" signed a petition in 1977 to completely abolish the age of consent, such as: Gilles Deleuze, Félix Guattari, Jean-François Lyotard, Michel Foucault, Jacques Derrida, among others. Many of them also defended, in an open letter in 1979, three men accused of statutory rape against children, alleging that:[
"French law recognises in 12- and 13-year-olds a capacity for discernment that it can judge and punish, but it rejects such a capacity when the child's emotional and sexual life is concerned. It should acknowledge the right of children and adolescents to have relations with whomever they choose."
Link to this: https://rationalwiki.org/wiki/Postmodernism
This is why many French directors have come out in support of "Cuties." The French didn't even attempt to prevent this film from being made and shown. The French have a problem regarding sexuality and boundaries. They are anything but "progressive" on this front. Ditto for many other European countries which still have attitudes that are holdovers from centuries ago.
Correction: I meant the revised Netflix poster (which is actually the original theatrical poster) is supposed to be "MORE innocuous," not LESS, although one can argue it IS more offensive. Also note they have thong panties on the outside of their clothes.
This is what happens when I don't work with a script, LOL.
