Last October, we brought you the story of three academics named Helen Pluckrose, James A. Lindsay, and Peter Boghossian, who wrote absurd papers in the areas of gender studies, women’s studies, and more.
They then submitted the papers to journals which, to their amazement, published many of them.
The war between Bernie Sanders supporters and fans of Beto O’Rourke is real. Despite their similarities, people on the left are engaging in a battle over purity, and only the most “real” progressive will do.
I’m old enough to remember when Brett Kavanaugh was not qualified to serve on the Supreme Court because he was visibly angry about being accused of sexual assault.
Now I read feminist author Kate Rope advising parents to encourage their daughters to get angry and show it:
Manhattan Institute scholar and author Heather Mac Donald appeared on the Mark Levin show this weekend to discuss how campus culture has begun to surface in American politics. Social justice warriors used to be confined to college campuses, now their world view has been adopted by many elected officials.
Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez is enjoying the sort of hero worship by Democrats and the media not seen since Obama. She can do no wrong in their eyes, and every aspect of her must be celebrated. Even the shoes she campaigned in are now going to get special treatment.
Matt Yglesias is one of the co-founders of the progressive site Vox, which aims to explain the news to its readers.
After the Antifa mob harassment of Tucker Carlson this week, Yglesias took a less than sympathetic position on the issue and has now been doxxed himself.
Adam Carolla and Dennis Prager have been making rounds in media, promoting their film project “No Safe Spaces” which focuses on free speech and social justice warrior culture on college campuses.
They have also issued a list of related demands, naturally.

GWU progressive student group demands ‘fair jobs’
George Washington University President Thomas LeBlanc agreed to meet with the Progressive Student Union in response to the group’s Oct. 1 list of demands for increased university employee benefits “at all levels.”

Arizona Democrat Rep. Kyrsten Sinema has been running a competitive race for a Senate seat in the state. But a video of her speaking in Texas in 2011 has surfaced which has the potential to do some serious damage.
As someone who attended and wrote about Tea Party protests in 2009 and 2010, it has been surreal to watch folks at CNN and MSNBC twist themselves into knots to defend the recent actions of the left.
I clearly remember Democrats and their media allies using words like “dangerous” and “mob” to...
Senator Rand Paul was harassed by anti-Kavanaugh protesters in a D.C. airport last week. His wife Kelley wrote an op-ed for CNN claiming she now sleeps with a loaded weapon at her bedside.
Where is all of this headed? Paul was frank in a recent interview.
Over the weekend, there was a vigil in Portland, Oregon for Patrick Kimmons, a black man who was shot by police. Afterwards, members of Antifa blocked streets, directed traffic, and harassed drivers and other people.
The left keeps expanding its new public harassment campaign. Brian Kilmeade, one of the hosts of FOX and Friends, was stalked by two men in New York City on Friday who seemed intent on just acting like jerks.
In the spring of 2017, Rand Paul was on the baseball field where Rep. Steve Scalise was shot by a leftist. Less than a year later, Paul was physically attacked by a neighbor.
Now he is being harassed by leftists over Kavanaugh.
This story is in one sense hilarious, yet horrifying at the same time. Three highly credentialed academics named Helen Pluckrose, James A. Lindsay, and Peter Boghossian set out to write absurd papers focused in areas like gender studies, women’s studies, and the like.
They submitted the papers to respected peer review journals...
Twitter hashtag games are a fun and effective way of sharing our ideas, no less so now that Twitter is silencing conservatives. Case in point, Ben, of Ben and Jerry’s ice cream fame and fortune, coordinated a “name the ice cream for seven up and coming progressives” effort with MoveOn.org and...
Many political analysts are singling out Joe Biden as the best hope Democrats have for beating Trump in 2020. They point to his supposed connection to working class voters and his gravitas as a former Vice President. Grass roots members of the party, on the other hand, aren’t sold.
