That's . . . appalling. Absolutely appalling. "WAR IS PEACE, FREEDOM IS SLAVERY, and IGNORANCE IS STRENGTH." IngSoc is definitely with us.

Wonderful. A country that routinely hangs women for a variety of imagined and unprovable offenses and where women are barely considered second-class citizens is supposed to be the head of the Women's Rights Panel?

Where's the feminist outrage to this?

[polaris93]

Are you kidding? Feminism, with few exceptions, sold out years ago to the highest bidder, i.e., the Socialists. And the Socialists back Iran because Iran is useful.

Sold out, like a whore to the highest bidder. TRUE feminism in action: the ability to choose who to be fucked over by, for a price of their choosing. And call it women's rights!

I was being sarcastic about the feminist outrage. I know there is pretty much none.

I know. Movements are like viruses: they burn right through a population, wrecking their hosts and doing no good, then, after burning out that population, they go merrily on to the next, without a care in the world for those they've ruined. Feminism is no different. Give me mob violence any day over movements -- mob violence is at least honest.

On the negative side, this destroys respect for the UN. On the positive side, this destroys respect for the UN. :)

And on the gripping hand . . . you'd make one hell of a great stand-up comedian, you know? :-)
