- The idea of women organising in defence of their rights is triggering
to some people

- The police often seem more interested in hurty tweets than real
threats of violence

- This brand of extreme activist is not just a nuisance, but a threat to
free speech


‘Fascism’ has had an inclusive make-over. Sadly, this doesn’t mean
skinheads have come to embrace racial harmony, but that the term itself
is now applied more liberally by the day.

Last weekend, trans activists shouted the ‘f’ word at diverse groups of

Thanks, julian, for the full piece and the summary.

Some of us will remember that this battle between rebellious youth and
contempting oldsters has been going on for a very long time.

The thing about rebellious youth is that, before long, they will all
get jobs and shut up while a new crop will want a new rebellion. The
old one is worn out at that point.

Ask any old beatnik, hippy, etc.

"When the revolution comes
Some of us will probably catch it on TV, with chicken hanging from our
mouths
You'll know it's revolution because there won't be no commercials
When the revolution comes...!"

-The Last Poets (also old hippies, but not so old in 1970)
