Surber: Red-pilled writers
by Don Surber

On October 9, 2021, Elizabeth Emery had a message to her readers at her Dinosaurs Can't Read blog: "For the Last Time – I am Not a G** D*** Republican!"

OK.

Now she is dealing with her first pregnancy.

This week she wrote for Quillette, "The Erasure of Women From Online Pregnancy Literature

"After lugging around two fetuses that won’t stop kicking my bladder, I have no patience left for gender activists who pretend that men can give birth."

No normal person says men give birth.

She wrote, "I’m no fan of the credential-cataloguing throat-clearing that writers often do in the opening paragraphs of essays such as this one. But I think it’s necessary to mention something of my background, because I’m not a social conservative and certainly not a reactionary bigot. Before the U.S. Supreme Court ensured that gay men and women had the right to marry everywhere in the United States, I advocated passionately for marriage equality, and I was highly involved in my college’s LGBT club. I’ve dated transgender and transvestite men. I’ve taught transgender students, and I nearly ghostwrote a biography for a transgender woman. I don’t think transgender people should face discrimination in housing or employment, except in such limited areas where biological sex really does matter. I certainly don’t want any transgender person to feel that his or her life is devalued. Yet none of that changes my belief in the plain fact that sex differences between men and women are real, and that medical language around pregnancy—among other topics—ought to speak directly to biological women, full stop."

Emery still doesn't get it but she is getting there. She does not understand that feminism, LGBT and the whole lot of liberal causes are not about rights. Liberals are all about control.

Children are a gift from God. Her twins gave her the bonus of clarity. In today's parlance, pregnancy red-pilled her.

She wrote, "One of the gifts of pregnancy is that it makes certain truths excruciatingly clear. Accidentally vomiting on my feet in public because I can’t always get to a garbage can every time I leave the house is not so easily followed by watching President Biden seriously interview an adult biological man going through a grotesquely stereotypical transgender girlhood. Flowery sundresses, petting puppies, and flouncing one’s hair playfully while crossing the street, all while sipping daintily from a blended drink? Cut the shit, please. That’s a lot of things, but it is not literal womanhood, and I’m no longer interested in acting like it is because someone’s feelings might be hurt."

Emery is not alone on this journey from the cliff.

Matt Taibbi began his journey from Rolling Stone to Substack independence by calling out Russiagate in 2017 for what it was. BS.

His latest piece is about the Election Denial of Hillary versus the Election Denial of President Trump.

Election denialism -- as the left now calls contested races -- goes back to 1800 when Aaron Burr tried to hijack Thomas Jefferson's election as president.

#1 Leftist causes, not liberal.

None of this matters, they'll just call her a TERF and cancel her. The left always attacks its own fiercest proponents and is yet always creating more to replace them.

#2 The only thing that can stop reality from converting liberals is corrupt individuals like Mitch McConnell and Lindsey Graham.
