Reads like it could be written today, but in Slate and for real.

Change Reagan to Bush and update the Miami Vice reference to Breaking Bad or something, and no one would have the slightest idea this wasn't written recently.

I didn't expect the 1992 date at the end. The tone and the issues haven't changed much though, so why am I surprised? I think that political satire from 1972 would have been less likely to pass for current political satire in 1992. 1952 passing for 1972 - very unlikely. 1932 for 1952 - same thing. 1912 for 1932 - absolutely impossible. Eugenics, race realism and the rest of it were still mainstream in 1912. 1892 for 1912 - no one would have noticed the difference. 1872 for 1892 - same thing.

Speaking of brain-dead feminism: Here's Facebook's Sheryl Sandberg'd latest self-promoting PR stunt (to go along with her Lean In book). Ban Bossy.

Talk about PC making us stupid by removing words from our vocabulary that accurately describe a real personality type and management style.

She got the Girl Scouts to go along with it too. The job of the modern CEO is, apparently, to leverage her immutable characteristics in giant marketing campaigns to make the parent company immune to certain accusations of disparity. Like, I dunno, gender ratios.

"By middle school, girls are less interested in leading than boys — a trend that continues into adulthood. Together we can encourage girls to lead."

The graphics on the site are identical to those at Obama's "The Life of Julia".

The videos are an interesting form of predictable baiting. A woman with a megaphone aggressively and shrilly screaming at you to "Ban! Bossy!" of course comes across as bossy.

Some bubba is going to notice this without his crimestop circuits working quickly enough and say, "Ha, ha! She's being bossy when she says 'ban bossy' - that's so hilarious and ironic!"

And then the Sandberg clique is going to have their pre-planned canned response ready, "You see, that's the problem right there. That's exactly what we're talking about. We can't even try to lift up these poor, helpless girls without someone demeaning and degrading us by calling us bossy. That's exactly why it needs t go."

Sheesh. The actual ironic thing is that they use all these prominent female celebrities who apparently were immune to the pre-ban name-calling and made it to the top anyway. Funny how that works.

Your satire failed to mention the icon and role model Griselda Blanco the star of Cocaine Cowboys I & II. Tony Montana was a piker compared to her. Griselda truly was a pioneer of Cocaine trafficing in the US. She was a key figure in the Disco era coke boom in Manhattan in the Seventies. Later she was a Queenpin in Miami, LA and Oakland.

Man if this country could only produce more "dreamers" like that babe.

Whenever you see drug queenpins they're always legacy admits, like in that "Savages" movie... So affirmative action is needed until reality changes

Females are dominating the far more lucrative trade in selling sex. I mean the a la carte / by the hour type.

They are especially dominant, essentially owning the market for street level Crack Ho.

Also on the high end.

Not that I have any personal experience.

Just saying.

Apparently Clinton hated doing the self-deprecating joke shtick. Other than riffs on inhaling I can't remember any from his presidency. There was a lot of finger-wagging though.

Since a court ruling in 2009 that Chicago's top high schools could not discriminate based on race, the white share at these top schools has soared to over 1/3. This, of course, is a scandalous injustice.

Obama didn't thaw it out, the Internet did. Off the Internet, cooler heads can discuss strategy off the record and then freeze out other ideas.

Activists then write for communist newspapers, live and work in anarchist bookstores, and do valuable volunteer work for the Movement or whatever. They don't push #cancelcolbert in front of everyone.

Additionally, the Internet means the media can't forget things as much. Obama should have learned from the Skip Gates arrest that mindlessly joining in the chorus of denunciations makes him vulnerable; in that case he had to invite the parties to a beer summit. He should have learned from when he opened his mouth concerning the Trayvon Martin shooting. Last week he said what would have been expected of him and would have been good for progressivism in 1998 or 1988 about the sordid Donald Tokowitz affair.

Re. Griselda Blanco

I would take the idea she led a major gang with a very big pinch of salt as she got caught through being in the US, which suggests she was a line manager or semi independent operator, not a real cartel boss. The police have a way of exaggerating the stature of people they arrest. And they like to apparently clear up a huge backlog of unsolved murder by claiming that one person was responsible.

Very advanced understanding of feminism by 1992, that's for sure. But by no means did feminism go into any remission during the Bush dynasty. It was promoted globally, by Laura and others, tho doubtless not with the zealotry of Roslyn Carter and Hillary.





Indeed, the Bush presidencies provided the final opportunity for feminism, ID politics, racialism, AA etc to be undercut or crushed entirely. That didn't happen of course bc the Repubs, like most righties, were and are too invested in the current fempire to do what they were supposed to do. And too cowardly. So feminism and PC continued to rule media, education, law, NGOs, and generally government without significant challenge during the "non-leftist" years... indeed, with the tacit and often overt approval of those administrations.





I don't recall any speeches or even statements from either Bush that feminism was bad for the U.S. or world, pointing out its obvious correlation with divorce, broken families, fatherlessness, male suicide and homelessness, crime, destroyed little boys, drug use, birth defects, and so on.





Feminism (really, womanism) is not a fringe phenomenon appealing only to campus feminist groups. It's an extremely broad-based, and thus successful, political and psychological strategy. The beneficiaries are wide-net: girls, women, wives, daughters, mothers, most parents-with-daughters, leftist/compliant men, and the elite, both new and old money, the transgenerational interests. Corporations love female empowerment, it = easy cash. Same for governments. Think you're gonna overcome that with politics and law? Dream on.





Feminism appeals to the worst in human beings, but it appeals to a lot of them, and it appeals constantly and attractively.






Cheers.


Cheers.

"Smart White and Asian Criminals are probably the last group in the USA who aren't intoxicated with feminism."

I remember seeing on Slate a survey showing at least 25% of female Yale Law School grads want to get married and become a stay at home mom within ten years of graduation.

As Charles Murray noted, many people in the elite socioeconomic classes pay lip-service and political support to feminism and other forms of political correctness, but actually structure their lives with the sensibilities of the 1950s.

A sort of gentrification, I guess: this morning I saw a weird ad on the back of a SF Muni bus. It showed three pretty, gentle, decidedly unfeminist women in flowing dresses, like something from The New Yorker in 1977, under the banner "Tatyana".
The address? Haight at Ashbury.

Yeah, Griselda did such a great job for the Colombian bosses that they brought her back to Colombia and shot her.

As a commenter says, she was a convenient place to put a lot of bullet-riddled bodies.
