...ist

The suffix ...ist is an odd thing. In many cases it added to your profession make you good at it. I am a Machinist. when you study to be good at something they add ist to your work. If you study Guitar you are a guitarist, the flute a flutist, after many years in school and you can be a psychologist.

However when you ad ...ist to race you are a raciest, or to sex you are a sexist. These to are practicality a death sentence in today's politically correctness driven society. Not to say that there is any thing even remotely okay about being a raciest or a sexist but where is the difference coming from?

I don't believe that I am a racist. I believe that I am a "Culture-ist". I find a Culture that lives and dies on its vicim-hood to be reprehensible. There are some VERY Crazy ideas being put forward these days surrounding Racism. It seems that the notion of Three meals a day is racist, and the craziest thing that I believe I have EVER heard mathematics is racist. I have watched the You-tube videos that propose these notions many times, I still can not understand the rational behind these claims. There is also a ground swell movement gaining traction where by black persons in America at present are due reparations for the Colonial era slavery that existed in America some 200 years ago. Oddly enough, one of the persons pushing this idea, a Sunny Hostin, co-host on the much maligned day-time talk show, found out that in her ancestors history there are in fact slave "OWNERS". How does she propose to square receiving reparations for colonial era slavery that she feels has somehow caused her some economic harm if she have slave owners in your genealogical past? Will this involve some high level "Racist" Newer Math that will be able to make a full accounting of this? The unfortunate truth is that the city of San Francisco is actually considering a plan that will allocate 5 MILLION Dollars per black person. San Francisco can't even afford to clean shit (actual shit, human fesses, shit) off of its streets. The City recently hosted some big deal APEC Summit meeting nations from around the GLOBE were in attendance. And  the city had actually taken the time and expence to map out where the shit (fesses) was located in the city so that clean up crews could go out and clean it up. Map it out? San Francisco recently, I say recently it took some many years to make this happen, built a public restroom. The city spent 1.7 Million Dollars on a 150 square foot public restroom. Permits to get permits and one environmental and I assume utility impact study after another. Un-fucking-believable! I used to dream of living in San Francisco. Now I cant even dredge up the desire to visit.

While we are talking about suffixes "-phobic" is everywhere. Speak out about any of the LGBTQrstuvwxyz... and you are a "Homo-phobe, a Fat-phobe a Trans-phobe and the list is growing moment by moment it seems. The suffix phobe is used when a person has an irrational fear of what ever you have stapled the suffix to. 

I do not have a fear of rational or otherwise of Gay men, Lesbian women not even in the slightest. I do however have a very serious problem with "Pride Month". There used to be Pride parades and festivals buy now there is an entire month dedicated to Gay Pride. I say Gay pride because I believe that Gay is a blanket term that can be used to cover the whole of the LGBTQrstuvwxyz...crowd. I could be wrong. As much as everything is in a constant state of flux one can never be sure anymore. So no I am, not a Homo-phobe. 

I do not have a fear of Trans individuals. I do however have a very serious issue with trans men insinuating themselves into women's spaces. The most egregious example of this trend is, at least to me, when men self identify as women and weasel their way into women's sports and women's personals spaces. Sports that's pretty simple. If a genetically born male wakes up one day and declares himself to be a female and starts participating in women's sporting events. There has been a TIDAL wave of this happening recently. Everything; swimming, bicycling, weightlifting, virtually any sport that used to be declared a "Woman's" ( by Title 9) event has been infiltrated be trans-men. The most famous example is the Will/Lea Thomas sued his way into the Women's NCAA swimming team in the University of Pennsylvania. He "killed the competition. Crushed every record. Not by fractions of a second either not by portions of a body length Full seconds and Full body lengths. He stole records, titles and most importantly Scholarships. He stole them from deserving young women. 

By personal spaces I mean changing/locker rooms restrooms. Again with the Will Thomas example he is/was a 6'4" fully genitally fully intact male, he was allowed to use the women's locker room. A locker/changing room where in  women are entitled to privacy, safety and dignity. The moment that U Penn NCAA people made the decision to allow Will Thomas to participate on the women's swim team and to allow him to use the woman's locker room they completely stripped the women on the U Penn swim team of all of the privacy, safety and dignity implied by the "Woman's Locker/changing room". And they facilitated the theft of  records, titles and scholarships. I find this morally ethically heinous and atrocious. I would use more vitriolic words here but it's late and I can't dredge them up right now.

This sort of "DEI" is creeping all across the country and world. The alter of inclusion is blood stained in "Gyms" all across the country. Planet Fitness has "Bent the knee" to this alter. They allow any male self identifying as female to use the women's locker room. YMCA gyms have also bent their knee. Fast food restaurant's city parks are experiencing issues with men using the women's restrooms.

                        more to come.
