Anybody With Half a Brain


As is seemingly happening more often than not, today, by serendipity, I read three articles that at first glance seem to have no relationship to each other. However, after mulling it over for a minute or so, it dawned on me that these days much of the news is connected by “woke-ness.” 

“Math Professors Outraged as California Seeks to Downgrade Math in the Name of Social Justice”

Anybody with half a brain should be able to realize the multiple downsides to this absurdity. In an attempt to make some kids feel better about themselves, the Democrats in California want to completely eliminate the more difficult and challenging high school math classes. This way California students, predominantly those sociologically disadvantaged will never succeed in STEM careers because they will not be prepared to handle the rigors of college math. Why do I single out “those sociologically disadvantaged?” Simple. The more affluent will move their kids from public schools to private schools, where those who want to be challenged, can be. Likewise, affluent kids who want to learn more advanced math can do so in extra after school to tutoring, e.g. Russian math.

“Chicago Public Schools Now Allow Boys to Use Girls Bathroom”

From RedState:

From now on, all kids in Chicago Public Schools can use the restroom that makes them most comfortable.

“On top of ensuring that each of our schools is a safe learning environment, we’re also taking steps to create more inclusive and supportive schools. One change that will be implemented this school year relates to our school bathrooms.”

The new signs will trumpet “Girls+” and “Boys+” while stating, “All who feel comfortable are welcome to use this restroom.”

Anybody with half a brain should be able to realize the multiple downsides to this absurdity. First of all, it’s only a matter of time before something horrific happens in one of these inclusive bathrooms, and the very high likelihood is that the victim will be a girl. When that happens, from my perspective, there is nothing that will then be able to wash the blood off the hands of these all-inclusive maladjusted cretins who thought that this was a good idea.

The second absurdity has to do with the “all feeling comfortable” nonsense. While a few may feel comfortable, many will feel uncomfortable with those from the opposite sex peering over their shoulder.

“Transgender college swimmer who swam as a man for 3 years now crushing the competition at women’s meets.”

After three years of competing as a male, a transgender swimmer at the University of Pennsylvania switched to competing as a female and is now dominating the competition.

Senior swimmer Lia Thomas, formerly known as Will Thomas, reportedly broke multiple school and conference records during a Nov. 20 swim meet against Cornell University and Princeton University.

According to SwimSwam, Thomas “blasted the number one 200 free time and the second-fastest 500 free time in the nation on Saturday, breaking Penn program records in both events.” The swimming blog later noted that Thomas’s times in both races marked new Ivy League records, as well.

Now let me get this straight … a mediocre college male swimmer couldn’t cut the mustard as a male swimmer, so after a Covid respite, he/she is swimming as a female and setting college records. 

Anybody with half a brain should be able to realize the multiple downsides to this absurdity.

Who is supposed to be happy about this? … “Lia!”

Who does this benefit? … “Only self-serving Lia.”

Who is getting the shaft? … All of the true women on the U. Penn swim team. All of the true women on other Ivy League teams that have the misfortune to compete against U. Penn. Indirectly all of the true women who participate in competitive college swimming, and potentially all of the true women that participate in any collegiate sport. And finally any true woman/girl who competes in any sport at any age. All of this because one misguided male wants to show off. If he/she wants to switch sexes, so be it! But to have his “I am a girl,” affect a myriad of young girls/women is nonsensical bordering on laughable!

And BTW where are all the feminists who should be speaking out against this foolishness … “I can’t hear you!”
