“Those of us who believe in liberty have a narrow path to walk. We mustn't cede freedoms to the fascists, but we mustn't act in an anti-freedom fashion either.” An incredibly important precept, beautifully stated 👍👍👍
Thanks. I'm very concerned by the over-response to the Left's coercive excesses in certain policy areas - a response that involves its own coercion.
Some argue that every household should be required to have a gun. That's not liberty. Some argue that adults should be banned from transitioning. That's not liberty either.
When I read where she made these remarks, the Battle of Ideas, my thoughts were how courageous of her to speak of transgenderism there. Frankly anywhere you speak of it is risky.
No, the biggest victims are not adult-age transitioners who just want to live in peace.
The biggest victims are women in (formerly) secure women-only spaces, who are not even allowed to say anything about the men who are now openly and gleefully threatening their safety. I'll put women stuck in women's prisons with hulking male rapists way ahead of any adult-age transitioners, for instance.
Can “scared snotless” be considered a euphemism?😁 Judge Jeanine said “shit” on The Five last night.
I do occasionally curse on this forum, but "scared shitless" is quite cliche. Something similar but not the same might catch someone's eye. Q. E. D.

There is, or was, a city in North Georgia, maybe Kennesaw, requiring every household to possess a firearm. How foolish.
This is EXCELLENT!!!
Fantastic article as is the embedded video of Camille Paglia!
Paglia seemed a bit "nervous" in her presentation, but it was still sharp as a razor and totally spot-on.
I do admit it's a bit of an appeal-to-authority gambit to post her commentary on LGBTQetc matters, but why not :).

She is probably in the "uncancellable" ranks at this point. Good for her.
Yes, probably so, but not immune from the hatred and venom associated with it.
