'According to the report, one-fifth of Americans believe that feminism is negative for society.

“The concept of feminism has a branding problem in the US in particular, and the term feminism just doesn’t speak to people in the way that it should and it’s become loaded and polarizing, said Margot Peppers, Foresight Factory’s consumer trends editor.
...
A study published in July focused on the incel community, the group of sexually or romantically frustrated men who blame women and society for their inability to form these relationships. As Reckon reported in November, one of the key elements of incel identity is antifeminism. Though this overlap exists, Peppers says it’s important to note that the two are not synonymous.

“That’s a much more extreme group. But, you know, it is a subculture that seems to give young men a sense of identity and belonging in a world where they’re not really finding that elsewhere,” Peppers told Reckon.'

'Let me begin by making this point as clearly as possible. There is absolutely nothing worse for the combat effectiveness of a military, than attempting to use recruiting as a social engineering program.

It was reported in this newspaper recently how the US Army has seen a dramatic fall in the number of white recruits, as the Military.com website found that the army fell 10,000 short of its 65,000 enlistment target.

Underpinning this drop was a dramatic decrease in white recruits from 44,042 in 2018, to just 25,070 in 2023, leading to the proportion of white recruits falling from 56.4 per cent of all recruits in 2018, to just 44 per cent. According to the US Census from 2022, around 59 per cent of all US citizens were from white backgrounds. The US military is 17 per cent women, so the recruiting crisis is primarily one among white men.

'What began as one Chicago man's attempt to get justice after multiple women allegedly defamed him on a private Facebook group called "Are We Dating The Same Guy? — Chicago" has garnered national attention.

Nikko D'Ambrosio is suing Facebook and 27 women for $75 million after they allegedly posted his photos, name and other identifying information on the Chicago version of a nationwide collection of private Facebook groups called "Are we dating the same guy?" along with complaints about his behavior.

"It didn't start off as a national issue, but it morphed into one because of how many people are out there who are victims," D'Ambrosio's attorney, Daniel Nikolic, told Fox News Digital.

"And these guys aren't running out there telling family and friends, ‘Look, I’m being defamed on this website.' Who would want to do that? So, they stay in silence and go about their day. … So, we filed this lawsuit, and now people are coming out of the woodwork."'

'Have you ever gotten in trouble or received a nasty look when holding an elevator door for an ultra-feminist woman, or pausing when the elevator door opens for all the women inside to get off or for those waiting outside first to get on? If you live outside America’s two Crazy Coasts, know with a certainty that this is not the era of “Ozzie and Harriet” and “Father Knows Best.” Donna Reed? Howzabout crazy left Joyce Reid of MSNBC?

'Seeing this grotesque blight on humanity return less than 80 years since the exposure of the Holocaust, can be overwhelming enough. But in addition to such inhumanity parading itself on campuses like Harvard, Columbia, NYU, MIT, and the University of Pennsylvania, another significant event in American social and political history took place in front of the House Committee on Education and the Workforce — the fraud and death of feminism and the indictment of its foundational ideology – Identity Politics.
...
What played out in front of the nation was the reality that the feminist argument that women would be better at everything simply because of their sex and life experience, was a fraud. Women, due to experiencing bias and discrimination, had a natural compassion and commitment to "making things better," we were told by our mentors. We, as women, would naturally be better leaders, better managers, better organizers, and reverse the damage men had done in every institution.

'A group of Massachusetts Institute of Technology alumni are working to prepare a lawsuit against the prestigious school that accuses its leaders of unlawfully rejecting male applicants for less-qualified female ones to advance gender parity.

The alumni have formed a nonprofit called FairAdmissions@MIT and currently seek male plaintiffs rejected by MIT despite “top SAT/ACT scores, great grades, strong recommendations, and substantial extra-curricular activities,” the group’s website states.

“This is about a return to meritocracy,” said a member of the group who asked to remain anonymous for fear of possible retaliation against him for organizing the litigation.'

'An instructor whose specialties include “Indigenous feminist and queer studies” and “Diné/Navajo studies” has sparked controversy by calling to “decolonize this place,” in reference to the United States.

During a panel on Dec. 3, Melanie Yazzie, who teaches a course on “Indigenous Tribal Government and Politics at the University of Minnesota, said the “goal” is “to dismantle the settler project that is the United States.”

The discussion was hosted by Red Nation, a group Yazzie co-founded that is “dedicated to the liberation of Native peoples from capitalism and colonialism.” The event was held in Minneapolis and titled “From Minnesota to Palestine,” featuring a combination of Palestinian and Native American speakers.

According to the event page, in-person attendees were encouraged to wear masks.

Yazzie also said that she believed the U.S. is the “greatest predator empire that has ever existed.”'

'From work to education to relationships, young males across the U.S. are growing increasingly disconnected from society, leading some experts to express concern for the state of American manhood.

Fewer men under 21 were meeting five key achievement milestones in 2021 than they were in 1980, according to data from Pew Research. These include being employed full-time, being financially independent, living on their own, getting married and having a child.

Only 39% of 21-year-old men were working full-time in 2021 compared to 64% in 1980. Only 25% were financially independent from their parents compared to the earlier 42%.

The gap narrows by age 25, but is still “statistically significant,” Pew writes. By 25, 66% found full-time employment compared to 73% in 1980. Those who were financially independent at 25 made up 60% of the group, compared to 63% in the past.

'A new academic study is suggesting the presence of two parents in a household may play a crucial role in ensuring safer communities.

Wall Street Journal columnist Jason Riley, who recently wrote about this topic, argued on "Sunday Night in America with Trey Gowdy" that the biggest root of crime is fatherlessness.

Riley referenced the book "The Two-Parent Privilege" by economist Melissa Kearney in emphasizing the significant impact of family structure on social inequality and the lack of discussion on this issue within academia and in this country.'

'During Tuesday’s inauguration ceremony held at the Ordway Theater, Lt. Gov. Peggy Flanagan told the freshmen members and incumbents, “while this is historic, it should also simply be the way it is. The norm.”

Flanagan also said this group of young, diverse, women leaders is part of the reality her daughter and other young women are growing up in.

“It is my daughter’s reality that a group of really smart and talented, dedicated women can get elected to lead their community,” Flanagan said. “I am honored and grateful that I get to go home tonight and I get to tell Siobhan that in St. Paul, the city council is led by all women and I hope she thinks ‘well why wouldn’t it be?’”'

'Hunter Biden sat silently in a congressional hearing room Wednesday while a panel investigating his father for corruption considered a vote to hold him in contempt of Congress for failing to provide closed-door testimony to investigators about his father’s involvement in his lucrative business schemes.

“You have no balls,” Rep. Nancy Mace, South Carolina Republican, told Mr. Biden as he sat stone-faced in the House Oversight and Accountability Committee room.

Chairman James Comer, Kentucky Republican, said Hunter Biden broke the law by defying two congressional subpoenas to provide testimony.

The president’s son fled the hearing room when Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, Georgia Republican, began berating him.

As he exited, Ms. Greene said he was afraid to face “strong women” and “what a coward.”'

'The Harvard University Medical School has removed portraits of former department chairs from a lecture hall because the individuals pictured are not sufficiently diverse.

School officials confirmed Friday afternoon that the portraits of 31 medical school deans—which formerly hung in the school’s Bornstein Family Amphitheater—have been “dispersed” to various lobbies and conference rooms.

All 31 individuals depicted in the portraits are men, and while one is Chinese, the other 30 are also white.'

'A veteran Activision Blizzard executive claims the “Call of Duty” maker canned him because it had “too many old white guys,” according to a lawsuit.

James Reid Venable, 57, filed an age discrimination lawsuit in Los Angeles Superior Court last week against the company, which finalized a $69 billion merger with Microsoft last October.

The lawsuit cites alleged comments made by Activision Blizzard CEO Bobby Kotick at a leadership conference that the “problem” with the company was that “there are too many old white guys.”

Kotick resigned last month after the company agreed to pay about $54 million to settle discrimination claims brought by California’s civil rights agency on behalf of women who alleged they faced constant sexual harassment.'

'NORAH O’DONNELL: Finally, tonight, I think you'll like this story. History was made in Minnesota's capital city of St. Paul today. Or should we say, HER-story was made. St. Paul’s new city council was sworn in this afternoon, made up entirely of women. And get this: six of the seven council members are women of color, and they are all under the age of 40. Four of them are new members, and say that affordable housing and access to child care are some of their top priorities. Congratulations to them and the people of St. Paul. I am bettin’ that they get some stuff done.'

The problem with this report, obviously, is that it reduces these elected officials to skin color and genitalia (unless O’Donnell’s trying to slip a “trans woman” by us, which would be a whole other story). O’Donnell doesn’t get into the substance of these women beyond their aforementioned immutability.
