Adam Winkler in The New Republic, warns us against the evils of potty discrimination:
Modern liberalism is, much of it, an exercise in make believe. Because someone says he is a girl, but is a boy, then his wishes take paramount importance and he must be treated as a girl. If this means that a boy must be allowed to use a girl’s bathroom, so be it, and anyone who protests is obviously a knuckle dragging Neanderthal. The problem with ignoring reality is that reality has a way of winning out in the end. Playing make believe is a wonderful pastime for young kids, but a disastrous way to govern a society.
I think this is another example of the thesis that the philanthropic sector absorbs people too silly for commercial or public employment.
This is a gross example of liberal idiots’ (repetitive, sorry!) misallocated sentimentality and willful ignorance. Accomodation to stupidity leads to more stupidity; tolerance of evil leads to more evil; etc.
I thought this was a joke. Then I realized it was just stupid.
Ugh . . . and he teaches future lawyers. How sad to spend all that money and be subject to his classes or at least poor legal reasoning. Glad, I did not go to such a law school but then again my law school, even though Catholic, hired former Sen. Feingold . . . so who am I to criticize such stupidity.
Not just an exercise in make believe, but a credo of “if it ain’t broke, let’s fix it.”
Sorry, this isn’t just ‘pretend’ or ‘make believe’ or ‘stupid’.
This is a LIE and it is only a matter of time before we are compelled to speak and live this LIE under penalty of the law.
Well we better all just cut our throats right Mike? The defeatism in conservative quarters truly nauseates me. Here is an idea. Instead of doom and gloom lets all get off our dead hind ends and defeat the idiots arrayed against us at the polls.
This yo-yo is a full professor at the UCLA Law School and conned the John M. Olin Foundation into granting him a fellowship (unless the borg has gotten to the Olin Foundation as well). Before that he was an attorney at Katten, Muchen, one of those “entrepreneurial” megafirms that have done so much for the common life.
Well, Donald, those of us following this debate over immigration law are discovering that the idiots arrayed against us appear to include somewhere between six and twenty-five Republican senators and perhaps the Republican floor leaders in both caucuses.
Oh, and Kelly Ayotte and Marco Rubio lied through their teeth on this issue during the penultimate election cycle. Sweet.
I would suggest Art contacting every Republican member of Congress and insisting they vote no on the immigration bill. Make enough noise and this bill is going nowhere in the House.
And to think, once The New Republic was a serious journal of progressive opinion.
But then Progressives used to be serious.
This fella is a sitzpinkler.
In France, public toilets are often unisex, with a single row of cubicles and a urinal separated by a pair of bat-wing doors. Most have an attendant, usually female and resembling, in manner, dress and disposition, a tricoteuse during the Terror.

Who hasn’t showered in a week or two.
