Motus Mentis

Still very busy here, I’m afraid. I’ve also got little to add to the big story of the moment, which is of course the Kavanaugh appointment. There’s nothing subtle or nuanced about any of it; it’s just raw combat, and everyone knows it. So what can I say? (New things do keep popping up, though.)

It is worth noting, however, how far we’ve slid even since the Gorsuch nomination, which now seems like tea with the vicar. All is naked fury now. As you’ve probably heard, there was a Georgetown professor, Christine Fair, who tweeted this charming message:

Look at thus [sic] chorus of entitled white men justifying a serial rapist’s arrogated entitlement.
All of them deserve miserable deaths while feminists laugh as they take their last gasps. Bonus: we castrate their corpses and feed them to swine? Yes.

Twitter briefly suspended her account, then reinstated it, then suspended it again. (I guess it was a tough call.) Georgetown defends her. (To be fair, all she did was to call for the premeditated public murder of some white males, the sexual mutilation of their bodies, and the feeding of them to pigs, which is after all a perfectly ordinary thing to wish for on a modern college campus.)

Oh and speaking of Twitter, they’ve reinstated @HBDChick. Not @ThomasWictor, though.

I’ll have more time for writing soon. Thanks as always for coming by.
