Megan Murphy has been "cancelled" because she speaks out against the sex trade and for women's rights (as opposed to gender rights).

"...I have yet to solve the mystery of how a small minority of largely irrelevant activists have such a chokehold. Most of us assumed a pervert with a personality disorder wouldn’t command the kind of power one would need to convince the media to start referring to penises as ‘female’. We were wrong.

Never mind that the vast majority of the population agrees biological sex exists. In a matter of years, a small group has seized control of not only our institutions but our minds. People I know who definitely know how babies are made refuse to say in public that only women can give birth. Disagreeing will see you canceled, unless you grovel, as we saw recently when Star Wars actor Mark Hamill dared to ‘like’ a tweet from J.K. Rowling, which said women should not be fired for knowing that biological sex is real. Twitter user @artinventcr, with fewer than 2,000 followers, questioned Hamill’s transgression, and the actor apologized, claiming ‘ignorance’....


I would have been just as witless as them, had Twitter existed when I was a young know-it-all, full of misdirected rage and vodka, so I know better than to pay heed to a bunch of tantrum-y babies who think ‘**** you, pay me!’ is a call to political action, though it appears I am in the minority. No amount of bullying will convince me to lie so that some creep who wants to normalize his fetishes by legislating his right to access women’s and girls’ locker rooms can gaslight the whole world...."

I can't disagree with anything she said. Wow, now I'm agreeing with a Progressive. LOL

There is no room with the left for differences of opinions it seems.

I think that when rad leftists pass a certain point on the crazy meter even normal leftists will get off the train.

Agreed.

For the last couple of decades, both parties have been moving left.

You've got that right.

no pun intended


I remember watching the RINOs in the GOP move the party further and further left. The more they dragged it left, the more "far right" I became simply because they were moving farther away from me.

So watching the radleft take over the Dems makes me feel sorry for the Average Joe dem. I know what it's like to have your party co-opted from you.

I thought we had the solution when the TEA Party popped up. Those guys got elected and then once in Congress they end up joining the establishment.

What there is no room for GrayBeard is for the establishment of any baseline of morality whether that is based in science, based in faith, or based solely on common sense and observation. The left wants nothing to impede their stampede of our society to nihilism. They not only hate America, they hate any god, let alone the God, the hate knowledge, and ultimately they hate life.

Think of them like Dorfman in Animal House, "They want to go through life fat, drunk, and stupid, and absorbed with self, if they must live at all."
Why? Because they hate anything that proves them wrong and science, God, and life do that every day! And they hate America because it is successful because of science, God, and common sense and they hate that Success most of all!
