The Anti-Promethean Backlash(es)

Thoughts on its source(s), from Virginia Postrel.

One of the irritating things about the immigration debate is the conflation of opposition to immigration per se, and opposition to the unrestricted flooding of the country with people who have been completely unvetted, and many of whom are coming not for American opportunity but rather government handouts, and many of whom hate America (e.g., Somalians in Minnesota).

The Great Feminization

This is extremely explanatory, and extremely terrifying. I love women as individuals, but we should be societally terrified of them as groups. It’s why many people, including many women, think that it was a mistake to give them the vote. It makes me think that if we were to return to literacy tests to vote, maybe we should have some emotional ones as well. It would exclude many men, but probably many more women.

Happy Indigenous Peoples Day!
