I’m surprised she didn’t call it a ‘girlcott’. On the other hand, maybe I’m not.
“Until Victoria’s Secret commits to representing ALL women on stage, I am calling for a complete boycott of this year’s Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show,” she continues.
“It’s time Victoria’s Secret recognised the buying power and influence of women of ALL ages, shapes, sizes, and ethnicities.
She appears to be confused as to what constitutes the target demographic of Victoria’s Secret. Hint: It is not ‘women of ALL ages, shapes, sizes, and ethnicities’.

Steve Sailer looks at a typical member of the Party of Hate.
This is a hilariously representative Current Year op-ed in which a woman writer explains why she hates some demographic group that it is okay to hate these days due to the Theory of Intersectionality. It starts with some Twitter/Youtube inanity, the Decapitated Pigeon Incident, and goes on from there in the now predictable paths.

You know, as they do.
When things get scarce, the price goes up. When the price goes up, I’ll believe that they are getting scarce.
Scientists waving their arms about things that might get scarce don’t impress me, seeing as how they’ve done that for the last fifty years. Every time you see one of these Cries Of Alarm, a careful reading reveals, like smallpox sores, the weasel-words ‘might’, ‘could’, and ‘projected’.
Don’t fall for the ‘our models predict’ scam unless their models have actually predicted something that actually happened.

Except, of course, that sea levels haven’t risen, nor will they in my lifetime or yours.
But now the Roman ruins of Pompeii and Herculaneum could be lost through flooding and erosion caused by climate change, a major study has found.
The ancient towns are among dozens of World Heritage sites at risk from sea-level rise in the Mediterranean as the climate warms, researchers at the University of Kiel, in Germany, have warned.
Emphasis added to point out the dishonesty.

One of the seminal shakeups in American politics was when a lot of liberal Democrats decided that they couldn’t take it any more and became right-wing Republicans. These were the so-called ‘neo-cons’: Irving Kristol, Normal Podhoretx, Midge Decter, etc. They are the intellectual heavyweights behind the ‘Invade the world, invite the world’ program that the Republican establishment has followed during the Cold War and beyond.
Another movement now seems to be taking place, where the Never-Trumper Republicans are taking a hard look at the existing Republican party and deciding that they really don’t have anything in common with Those People. So we see people like Max Boot sounding more and more like proglodyte Democrats. They’re cashing in on their former status as ‘conservatives’ by writing Republican-bashing pieces for the DemLegHump Media, but eventually that Clever Plastic Disguise will wear thin, and they’ll subside into the Swamp with the rest of their new friends.

Over the past week, we watched this myth unfold in real time as Hurricane Florence devastated the Carolinas. A headline on a Florida TV station’s website that read “Looting already starts as Florence arrives” captured the attitude many in the media take on as a disaster begins. They find a single, isolated incident, and frame it as “just the beginning” of an impending crime wave—with no evidence that this is the case. Reports like this can instill fear and convince people that they shouldn’t evacuate.
