She hit the nail on the head, several times. I've said many of the same things, only not all at once or so organized. So have others. It's just we're all racists, bigots and oppressors. Since she's the member of a 'victim' group (women) maybe she'll get treated better for saying it all. :)

Not likely. I remember in the 80s, being told by starry-eyed radical feminists that if women ruled the world there would be no war. I asked them how they accounted for Margaret Thatcher and Indira Gandhi. They said those weren’t real women. It’s an incredibly idiotic excuse, but as far as I know, still being used today.

I was being facetious. :)

Similar logic is used by the US Democrats to argue that Colin Powell, Clarence Thomas, Alan Keyes and Condaleeza Rice aren't real blacks and hence can't be brought forth as proof that blacks are ascending to the highest levels of power in modern America.

Multi-Culti is inherently unstable.

Multiculturalism lasts only until the more vigorous & agressive culture dominate(s) or destroy(s) the others. Then that culture becomes The One True Way.
