That Gript article about Enoch Burke says that the Court didn't have any choice but to jail him for contempt, but they had the option not to renew the interlocutory injunction so he could go back to work.

Well...etc.... In other news, has anyone heard there was a man put on suspended leave from the school he works at because of remarks he made about "trans" people at a work-related dinner?...etc.... It was even in the Hindustan Times. Some conservatives can act provocatively also of course,but certainly it's symptomatic of today's universal madness. |

If such "provocation" is not allowed, what else is? Looks very like the pre-feared absurdities noted by some major free speech profiles, say Salman Rushdie and Rowan Atkinson. |

I find this a fascinating and revealing article, which shows that many prominent gay rights activists are vanguard revolutionaries who want to overthrow all social norms. Thatchell is bitterly resentful that many of those homosexually inclined just want quiet, bourgeois lives. Gay Pride sells outIt's the distinction between gay and queer isn't it. Gay means being attracted to the same sex. A person can be gay AND conservative (Douglas Murray) Queer is the blurring of categories as such. Trans activist stuff wants to do away with the categories of male and female and such, while cleaving to the grossest sterotypes. There is an argument to be made that male and female are THE basic categories, more basic than those of up and down for example. If you can convince people that male is female and female is male and that neither exist anyway, you've essentially convinced them that there is no binary logic, and that categories are unamenable to logic. Hence the increasing incommensurability and shrillness. |
