Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg says Kavanaugh helped boost number of female law clerks on court

 "Thanks to his selections, the court has this term, for the first time ever, more women than men serving as law clerks."
Ginsburg noted that more progress is still needed to ensure equal representation.

Reaction : Because while more of the female gender than the male is good, it's still not enough for equal representation.

Disappointed at the lack of logic in the new censorship discussions here on mastodon. The argument goes something like :

If you disagree with me in any way, you're a fascist/white supremacist /etc.

If you support people's ability to voice their opinion that differs from mine, even if I can't prove that you actually disagree with my opinions, then you're supporting fascists.

The only right response to fascists is to implement an authoritarian view of mastodon, with a strong centralized governance to have no tolerance for opposing opinions.

I don't know much about gab, I don't like trolls (on the "I disagree with you" side or in the "disagreeing with me is FASCISM!!! 1!11" side), they are an annoying thing but are easy for individuals to block, but I thought the idea of mastodon was against this type of governance of social media, which is getting pretty close to an application of Mussolini's governing philosophy, whatever that was called.

"We don’t want the word to go out that we want to exterminate the Negro population"

“I accepted an invitation to talk to the women's branch of the Ku Klux Klan... I was escorted to the platform, was introduced, and began to speak...In the end, through simple illustrations I believed I had accomplished my purpose. A dozen invitations to speak to similar groups were proffered.”

What do you think of this idea from author Andrew Klavan on a recent podcast? The left consistently identifies an enemy and then adopts the enemies values.

Examples include feminism's push for women to adopt traditionally male values (work over family, career first, family later, hands on hips aggressiveness), instead of elevating traditional female values of being a mother, etc., and on race (using race against whites after identifying white racists as the enemy).

Glad to read that Nevada's governor vetoed the NPV bill. Nice to see anyone stand against the dismantling of the republic.

Just picked up The Science of God by Gerald L. Schroder. From the preface, and pertinent to recent toots here : "Why would God have described our cosmic history in the Bible in terms that seem to contradict the workings of the universe? The Bible was accountable to its earliest audience, a largely uneducated population of recently freed slaves, as it would be to scholars through the ages. So it works on a number of levels and is filled with subtle hints of much deeper truths confirmed by the underlying truths of nature. "
