Believe it or not, ESPN went 2 entire minutes on air without pushing left-wing propaganda. The context is less surprising. It was a protest in favor of the indoctrination of small children into deviant sexuality.

From likeminded Yahoo Sports:

With the start of the NCAA women’s tournament on Friday, two ESPN announcers used the platform to take a stand against Florida House Bill 1557, dubbed by critics as the “Don’t Say Gay” bill.

To start the second half of Friday’s game between South Carolina and Howard, ESPN’s Carolyn Peck and Courtney Lyle spoke about the bill in solidarity with their Disney colleagues. Disney owns ESPN.

Disney has been bullied by LGBT activists into opposing the Parental Rights in Education bill (or as liberals deliberately mischaracterize it, the “Don’t Say Gay” bill), which seeks to protect small children from being subjected to depraved sexual indoctrination in kindergarten through third grade. Literally no decent person who understands its contents would oppose the bill.

Lyle’s broadcast partner Carolyn Peck then introduced a moment of silence. …

Gameplay then started with Peck and Lyle declining to call the action for the first two minutes of the half.

No doubt this improved the viewing experience.

Even in a society succumbing to the rot relentlessly promoted by its degenerate ruling class, most Americans support the Florida bill. However, it is unlikely that many in sports media support it. In the Long March Through the Institutions, the conquest of sports by the radical left has been absolute. In place of patriotism, we see ballplayers kneeling as if in worship to explicitly anti-American Marxist scumbags as they loot small businesses and tear down statues of the Founding Fathers. In place of sportsmanship, we see a jerk pretending to be a girl ruining competitive swimming for all the real girls.

This moonbattery is driven largely by sports media. Physically inadequate to be athletes and mentally inadequate to work as proper journalists, many of the hacks comprising sports media seem to wallow in a resentful, safe-hating mentality that is a perfect fit for liberal ideology. Their obsessively woke viewpoint sets the tone for television coverage.

Sexually deranged men continue to encroach upon the accomplishments of women. The winningest female Jeopardy contestant, the historic first female four-star admiral, the likely oldest female serial killer — all men. USA Today is even listing a man as one of its “Women of the Year.”

The pick is Richard “Rachel” Levine, a disturbed pervert who has advocated sex change surgery for children and who serves the depraved Biden Regime as Assistant Secretary for Health.

The selection criteria:

“USA TODAY’s Women of the Year lead and inspire, promote and fight for equity, give others a place to seek help and find hope. They are strong and resilient women who have been champions of change and courage, often quietly, but with powerful results.”

No doubt Levine promotes equity by being unqualified for his position, but he is not a strong and resilient woman or any other kind of woman. They could dig up his bones a million years from now, and using technology we have today, prove that he was a man. The liberal establishment media is expressing its contempt for you by telling an obvious lie to your face.

It can also be proved that he caused seniors to die of Covid:

Levine faced scrutiny in May 2020 for moving [his] mother out of a personal care facility after being notified that residents were testing positive for COVID-19. Just two months before, Levine had ordered recovered COVID patients in hospitals to be sent to nearby nursing homes. More than half of all deaths reported in Pennsylvania came from COVID-19 cases found in nursing homes.

But so long as he wears women’s clothes to work, Richard Levine can expect the reverence of the liberal establishment.

Democrats didn’t try to repeal the First Amendment. Instead, they rendered it obsolete by outsourcing censorship to Big Tech, which controls the means of communication. If Twitter can censor a sitting president, essentially on the grounds that he was elected against the wishes of the liberal establishment, it can suppress any opinion that contradicts leftist doctrine, no matter how inarguably true. So it brought down the ban hammer on Vicky Hartzler, a congresswoman (R-MO) running for the Senate:

Senate candidate Vicky Hartzler’s campaign said she has no plans to delete a tweet in which she wrote, “Women’s sports are for women, not men pretending to be women,” even after Twitter said she won’t be able to tweet, retweet, follow or like posts until she does.

The apparatchiks at Twitter cannot dispute this remark, which no reasonable person could disagree with. So they denounce it as “hateful.”

Being banished from Twitter is a major hindrance if you are trying to run a Senate campaign. Silicon Valley not only censors us, it interferes in our elections.

The Constitution protects us from overreach by government. It needs to be acknowledged that Big Tech is in effect a branch of the government, or at the very least a branch of the Democratic Party.

Following its display of power intended to chill speech, Twitter has let her back on for now. To her credit, she is not backing down, to judge from item #10 on this list of things Biden voters asked for and received:

The coronavirus lockdowns forced people to cower in isolation like Biden in his basement and to submit passively to arbitrary dictates passed down whimsically by clueless technocrats. By submitting, men became less manly. This is a cause of celebration for the liberal media.

The Guardian crows triumphantly:

For men who want to ditch their tie-dye tops and sweatpants post-pandemic but keep the comfort, a surprising new trend has emerged: the skirt. …

The trend is indicative of how the pandemic has unshackled men from their dress codes.

Only in the upside-down world of moonbats would someone claim men have been “unshackled” by the repressive lockdowns.

Mark Bryan, an influencer who posts arresting selfies to his 410,000 Instagram followers showing him posing in various skirts in different urban surroundings, said: “It offers me more than the traditional men’s trouser.”

Bryan is a middle-aged man who has become an “influencer” by making an exhibitionist pageant of his mental health issues. Guys like this are now cited by the establishment media as cultural role models.

According to French designer Ludovic de Saint Sernin, whose new collection features skirts for transvestites,

“At [my label] the skirt is quite mini to be honest, which is super freeing but also you’ve got to watch it a little if you want to keep it classy.”

Remember that, guys. When wearing women’s clothes in public, you’ve got to keep it classy. You don’t want to look sleazy like Harry Styles, frumpy like Corporal Klinger, or horrifically grotesque like senior-slaying Assistant Secretary of Health Rachel Levine.

Behold moonbattery applied to masculinity:

While our titular POTUS celebrated International Women’s Day by appointing combat commanders based on gender and struggling to remember the name of the Secretary of Defense, South Dakota Kristi Noem acknowledged the date more meaningfully by working with the legislature to block Democrats’ attack on women’s sports:

The Hill reports:

The bill, if signed into law, would legally prevent any student at a state institution from joining a sports team that does not match their at-birth biological identity.

The ACLU is enraged, reaffirming that Noem is doing the right thing. Spewed a spokesmoonbat:

“It prevents transgender women and girls from having the opportunity to play sports and have their personal dignity respected.”

Only in a madhouse would anyone belligerently assert the “personal dignity” of guys putting on women’s cloths and demanding to be allowed to make a grotesque farce of women’s sports.

The ACLU sent an International Women’s Day tweet yesterday too:

A “trans woman” is by definition a man pretending to be a woman. These maniacs are literally at war with objective reality.

ACLU uses lawfare to impose its sick lunacy. Wherever it has the power, the Democratic Party uses the coercive force of the state.

Let’s hope Republicans in sane states are able to keep boys out of girls’ bathrooms and locker rooms, despite the depraved Equality Act and Biden’s tyrannical executive orders.

On a tip from Mr. Freemarket.

The good news is that the US military is more politically correct than ever, now that Biden has appointed two 4-star combatant commanders on the basis of their gender in celebration of International Women’s Day. The bad news is that our Commander in Chief cannot remember the name of the Secretary of Defense, or even of the Pentagon:

As the New York Post reports,

Earlier at the event, Biden mentioned the Defense Department leader by his name, “Secretary Austin,” while appearing to read from a teleprompter.

But the names don’t stick for long. If it isn’t on the teleprompter, he shouldn’t try to say it.

At least Biden is sure to remember that Lloyd Austin is a Person of Color.

The liberal establishment has begun to ban books by Dr Seuss. But at least it will let your kids play with the new Eleanor Roosevelt Barbie.

Gushes Mattel:

A champion of policies around civil and economic rights, her passionate advocacy was unwavering, even when faced with resistance. Earning the title “First Lady of the World” for her hard work and dedication to humanitarian efforts, Eleanor Roosevelt’s perseverance redefined the role of women in politics and public life.

We don’t need constitutional rights anymore. Now we have civil and economic rights. Civil rights are special privileges doled out to favored identity groups. Economic rights are socialism.

Yahoo growls that Barbie has not always been so politically correct:

The petite, 60-year-old doll was derided by some for decades (and still is) over her comically unrealistic proportions and details — from her tiny waist to her stiletto-ready feet — and accused, even found through studies, of doing years of damage to the collective body image of little girls everywhere. Not to mention its diversity problem.

But if Mattel is sufficiently obsequious in its attempts to redeem itself in the eyes of the woke, maybe it can escape cancelation.

Mattel has been making obvious efforts over the years to turn its Barbie brand around, introducing dolls representing a range of races, physical abilities, body sizes and careers, as well as continuing its Inspiring Women series — releasing Roosevelt, which hit shelves on Wednesday, along with its “You Can Be Anything” virtual series, starting Saturday, ahead of International Women’s Day, spotlighting current role models including Yara Shahidi and Adwoa Aboah.

Yara Shahidi and Adwoa Aboah are important because they are racially stylish. Adwoa Aboah has also helped to combat lookism by proving that you don’t have to be attractive to be a fashion model these days.

Speaking of lookism, FDR would have loved it if Eleanor had looked like this:

The real Eleanor was less of a doll:

The War on History continues. Future versions of the Eleanor Roosevelt Barbie will probably assign her to a less problematic racial group.

Horrific as its effects on society may be, the LGBT agenda is like global warming and COVID-19 in that it is not the main threat in and of itself. It is a pretext to inflict something worse: tyranny.

There is no sane reason that a free society should sacrifice its most fundamental rights to placate a tiny minority of pushy deviants. Yet the LGBT agenda is costing Norway the right of free speech. In Australia, it is costing parents the right to raise their children.

An Australian couple whose child was reportedly seized by state authorities is appealing a magistrate’s ruling finding them abusive and “dangerous” for resisting testosterone therapy for their daughter, who now identifies as male.

Lawyers for the unidentified parents filed papers last week seeking to appeal a magistrate’s October decision, setting up what appears to be the country’s first test case on parental rights regarding gender dysphoria medicine, the Australian newspaper reported on Saturday. Their child, then 15, was taken away from the family last year, after discussing suicide online.

Allowing the parents to have access to their daughter would interfere with liberal establishment brainwashing to the effect that rather than be the best version of herself she can be, she should attempt to transform herself into something she cannot be.

Plenty of kids pass through dark times as teenagers. Inflicting permanent physical damage in an attempt to transform them into a facsimile of the opposite sex guarantees that they will not pass through to live normal lives.

It is incomprehensible that any government would be wicked enough to inflict such evil as an end in itself. The true end with progressives is always power. If they can brainwash your daughter, confiscate her, and turn her into something from the Island of Dr Moreau, the liberal ruling class is powerful indeed.

Joe Biden plans to help frog march the erstwhile Land of the Free down this same path. He has proclaimed that he will see that the warped Equality Act is enacted in the first 100 days of his presidency. Biden aggressively advocates giving sexually deranged men access to women’s private facilities, forcing women’s sports teams to accept men, subordinating military objectives to grotesque sexual posturing in the armed forces, providing homosexuals with special privileges regarding hiring and promotion, imposing the LGBT agenda on other countries as a centerpiece of American foreign policy, and compelling adoption agencies to turn over children to homosexual households.

Biden takes aim at the First Amendment with plans to ban appropriate psychological counseling for people suffering from gender dysphoria and to remove religious principle as a defense against being forced to participate in LGBT depravity by, for example, surgically mutilating the sexually disoriented.

A government that can do this to society can do anything.
