TERFs come across as the flip side of a coin where the other side is “MRA”. I also wonder if there’s an undercurrent of homo-nationalism & femo-nationalism about these types.

We've said it before, but the TPU has consistently refused to disclose its donors, while insisting on accountability for everyone else. Not unlike the Institute of Economic Affairs and the Adam Smith Institute on Planet Brexit.

I don't expect it to end up in court on those grounds. But while the Canadians, deprived of a paying audience, went on an interview jag, Robertson, not so much an angry manchild as an angry child, was threatening retribution:
"We're going to go after the venue, we're going to go after the media, we're going to go after all the people who've decided to slander it," he told Newshub.
What's Caolan Robertson going to do, fly to Auckland for a day just to trash the venue? Here's hoping whoever's providing the dark money for Southern & Molyneux to peddle their snake oil is cutting their losses right now.
And I've just come back from seeing "Our New President" at the NZIFF, it pretty much confirms my worst suspicions about weaponised disinfo carried out by RT and the Internet Research Agency at the behest of the Putin Regime.

Miles Stratford is cut from the same cloth as the war-on-the-poor racket that's rife in America - for-profit prisons, child internment camps, expropriation dressed up as proceeds-of-crime law, you name it.

It's sad to see how this artwork now holds such relevance to a problem that's now plaguing the United States.
The way things are going, America could become further polarised enough to get its equivalent of the IRA & UDA, with the federal government struggling to maintain order.

His optimism about just how stable liberal societies are is something that’s possibly being put to the test by the likes of Trump and Putin.
Francis Fukuyama once wrote of the "end of history" following the USSR's collapse, and back then he was a bit of a foreign policy neo-con. Since then, Fukuyama has broken with the neo-cons, and now fears for the future of liberal democracy post-Brexitrump.
Steven Pinker is a smart man, but he also comes across as asleep at the guard post.

Pinker also completely ignores or handwaves away various elephants wandering around the room in order to show that the trend on the graph will comtinue it's slow upward rise over the course of centruies

Hard News: They want to blow it all up, in reply to william blake,
The torching of the WTO is a consequence of Trumps tariffs on, primarily, Chinese manufactured imports to America. Stacking the appeal court is a method to quash legal action to lift the tariffs. Ultimately the policy is as isolationist as the wall building stunt. When that project is complete I think the explosions will occur within the, currently, United States.
I suspect it won't be long before President Trump has his Suez Crisis moment. And sure as hell not as Dwight Eisenhower.
There's this crushing feeling that world politics is dusting off its 1930s wardrobe, and Trump is threatening to take America into the Axis 2.0.
