    Every time a synagogue is set on fire, I have to update this list. And it never gets easier.

    We can’t get used to this. Synagogues burning can’t become the norm. It can’t be our reality.

  • The left and Iran

    —casting Heidegger a famous Western philosopher who legitimized their already existing anti-modernism.

    Before the revolution, Fardid employed his convoluted rhetoric, heavy with mysticism and dubious etymologies, to defend the shah’s regime; afterward, he applied the same tactics to justify Supreme Leader Ruhollah Khomeini’s rule. This species of Heideggerian-infused thought, in style as well as substance, remains popular among both secular and religious intellectuals, those inside the regime as well as among its opponents.

  • The Civil Service’s LGBT+ policy team

    unit has long dismissed concerns from LGB Alliance and any others who object to their views on gender identity. They are unashamed about the promotion of "Stonewall Law" and are keen to demonstrate their allegiance to the cult by wearing "progress" and "pride" lanyards. Not one seems to have ever understood a single Nolan principle. A disgrace to the Civil Service."

    "Of course the big question is why on earth is there an LGBT+ policy team at all in the Civil Service?

    "First of all there is no link between LGB and whatever T means.

    "And second – would the Office for Equality and Opportunity care to tell us what the + stands for? After the recent scandal at Surrey Pride it's clear that any group adding a + to its name must be very carefully vetted. It can mean anything.

    "Let's start by closing the LGBT+ unit and opening up a new team dedicated to implementing the Supreme Court ruling without ideological interference from Stonewall or any other discredited LGBTQIA+ organisation."

  • A supporter of progressive causes

    na arrested Ribeiro following a month-long investigation into reports of sexual abuse at a local daycare. The probe began in June, after several parents reported that their children had disclosed abuse. According to the parents, the children had exhibited troubling behavioral changes in the lead-up to their disclosures. Authorities notified the Municipal Secretariat of Education, which suspended Ribeiro from his position on June 5.

    Police subsequently raided Ribeiro’s home and searched his electronic devices, uncovering more than 6,000 files containing child sexual abuse material. Investigators say many of the files appear to have been produced by Ribeiro himself. Some of the victims were identified as Ribeiro’s students, and there was material that had been recorded on the daycare premises. Officers also discovered three additional hard drives concealed in his home; the total number of illicit files is now estimated to exceed 10,000….

    Jornal Razão reports that Ribeiro was known as a supporter of progressive causes, and displayed both the LGBT and trans pride flags on his social media accounts, where he also frequently posted popular cartoon characters and references to youth media. Journalist Lorran Barentin described this as a “possible strategy to mask criminal conduct.”

    Ribiero’s progressive public persona helped him cultivate trust with parents, one of whom noted: “The hardest part is that he was close to everyone. He used the right words, said the right things, and no one suspected him. But now the mask has fallen off.”

    So it would seem.

  • Men with a misogyny fetish

    ize: 11pt”>Something I have learned in the process of writing about trans-identified male rapists and pedophiles for several years is that most women truly have no idea how much these men hate them.

    "Trans women" are men with a misogyny fetish. They hold women in such contempt that publicly humiliating the female sex arouses and thrills them. To be a woman is a humiliating experience, they believe, and so play-acting as though they are women is their sadomasochistic and exhibitionistic game.

    Womanhood is a vehicle for their masturbation, nothing more. When they demand the public "validate" their version of womanhood, they are implicitly forcing agreement with their view that women exist to be used, to be sexually abused, to be objectified and humiliated.

    Yet despite this, women and girls are gaslit about it at every turn – chastised, condescended to, and told to be kind to men who have made a fetish their entire personality.

    All the while, women and girls are also blamed for these men's actions. For not standing up for themselves, for being too permissive, or, as a monolith when other women support them.

    So it's better to establish a firm boundary, to say "no" as loud as we like, and to not let ourselves be made to feel guilty for recognizing woman-hating when we see it.

    That X post has a video which I don't really want to put up here. Nasty. But it certainly shows a particularly vile trans misogyny – and Gluck's been involved in exposing this stuff for years, so she knows what she's talking about….
