I don’t care if it’s his sister, she needs to be vetted and elected. This trend of inserting people as gap fillers works no where else in society. It sounds absurd to say if an airline pilot dies then his relative gets to land the plane! Or your doctor or electrician or plumber…enough.
Helen Andrews drops a provocative thesis: Feminization = wokeness.
Everything we call "woke"—empathy over rationality, safety over risk, cohesion over competition, inclusion over free speech—is just the natural outcome of institutions becoming majority-female since the 1970s.
She points to surveys: ~2/3 men prioritize free speech, ~2/3 women prioritize inclusive society. Men lean "ethics of justice" (rules/facts), women "ethics of caring" (context/relationships/emotions).
Examples: James Damore fired not for facts but because it made women "feel bad." Kavanaugh hearings: masculine side demanded evidence, feminine side focused on "she's crying."
Her take: When women predominate, politics/institutions tilt toward subjective feelings over objective rules—even if many women reject it (e.g., best Kavanaugh books by women critics).
This 2:46 clip is bold, polarizing, and ties demographic shifts to cultural ones.
Agree it's a key driver of wokeness? Or overreach? What's your read on the gender gaps in free speech/inclusion polls?
🚨 REP. CHIP ROY ERUPTS AND HE NAILED IT!
"PAUSE IMMIGRATION! Just STOP IT! Stop ALL immigration!"
"The United States Supreme Court, manufacturing out of thin air, a complete ABOMINATION of a ruling by the Chief Justice, suggesting that you can simply become a citizen from being born on dirt, thereby validating the abhorrent practice of baby factories and moving people here to be born to be able to become a citizen, leaving us under no choice but to do what we must do to say, pause immigration!"
"Because if it's going to be exploited for people to come here when they're pregnant, to allow somebody who's working for the Chinese Communist Party and to come here and have children to become American citizens and then have our laws exploited like they were into the previous administration."
"It is why this Congress should act to pause all immigration, this Congress should act immediately to codify what the president has been doing to close the loopholes under asylum and parole, the catch and release policies, and to codify those that a future Biden and my works administration cannot do to the American people what these radical leftists did to the American people!"
This is existential.
