The one about gender ID changing with the seasons -- totally crazy! We should have a contest for the craziest woke quote.

Expand full comment

I scored okay, but only because

a) I had already encountered some of these in the wild and

b) I was primed to expect a couple to be jokes.

Well played.

I really believe that last one was true.

Sadly, I did as well.

I got all but #3 which sounded plausible!

Knowing that if you COULD sue sperm donors for child support that this would have happened decades ago, I outed her as "joke'...

Expand full comment

Quote #1. Is this something that Sotomayor said during the recent oral arguments in the Murthy v. Missouri case? Sure sounds like her.

In any case, that woman's mind is a howling wilderness. A shining example of the results achieved when "Diversity" is prioritized over simple competence.

Huh. I must be biased, or a subhuman found on the woke's "...ist" list, or something equally as awful. Apologies to the Howling Wilderness! (insert eyeroll emoji here...)

Thanks!

Got all but one right. I vacillated on #3, but thought it sounded plausibly woke.

I don't mind being treated as a servant by a higher species.

You win a cat only if you can tear it out of the cold, dead hands of the women in the video clips…

Why are men with cats regarded as charming but women are derided as "cat ladies?"

Expand full comment

LOL - maybe it's that very lack of cats that makes those men who deride our lady caretakers such assholes :)

Expand full comment

Continues to be strange that an unmarried middle-aged man with cats is regarded as having been too busy inventing wonderful things to have a family, or as half of a discreet tasteful householding relationship with a similar guy for forty years, while an unmarried middle-aged woman with cats is either in the world's view too ugly to fuck or is half of a lesbian partnership with both of them purported to smell like unshaved unwashed armpits.

🤣

I think the operative word here should probably be "abnormal" rather than "strange", both to the dominant societal opinion (or maybe just the loudest, but not really dominant in terms of optimal-ness) and to those who spend their time voicing it so loudly and obnoxiously....

Well if I put live my husband I’m getting 2-4 cats. These are all true. I’d like a tuxedo cat please. One cat might be ok with the husband. He likes cats

Expand full comment

I should note that it is immaterial to my own status as a cat lady that my cat has been dead for 30 years. She visits me in dreams, speaking perfect English, which I consider sufficient proof of her continued interest in being connected to me.

"Woke is made out of people! It's people!"

It's important thing to realize that. Neither woke nor leftism are ideologies. They are groups who use fake issues ("Gender is real; Biology is not!") as weapons to get political power.

Why is that important? Because rationally arguing with or about them will accomplish nothing. They don't really believe their lies. They don't change their minds when they are wrong.

Gato, there should be a browser extension to funnyficate the internet. For example, the extension should change all instances of "climate change" with "manbearpig."

I feel it is so unjust and patriarchal and capitalistic that I have to do the effort to mentally change that, that I may start thinking in starting a males only political party.

Expand full comment

How about an extension that can wokify any idea or conversation. "I'm going to wash the car" becomes "I'm going to destroy the earth by wasting limited resources on a symbol of white male capitalist oppression". Hours of fun! (I'm suspicious that someone has already created this and is using it on us everyday)

I, child of New England, alumna of the nation's first college for women, have more recently (i.e., in last 2 decades) been wondering if woman's suffrage was a really, really, bad mistake.

Women aren't the problem. Brain damage is the problem.

Expand full comment

hilarious yes

Expand full comment

The punchline is they all sound like the typical word salad and if the second video is true I hope the sperm donor sees this and sues everyone involved and / or if he wants proves her unfit and takes the child.

Expand full comment

"They all sound like the typical word salad."

That's why James Lindsay, et al were able to write those fake academic papers and get them published in the woke journals. They studied the word salad linguistic patterns and vocabulary.

Expand full comment

Want to hear something funny? Pranks like that were done in the 1950s already, though only the people who read academic journals were aware of it.

Very famous over here is a fake doctoral dissertation from 1955, Chalmers University of Technology in Gothenburg, Sweden, called "Fatilarkalkyl" (Fatilary calculus). It's complete gobbledygook but it looks genuine to anyone not "in" on the many clues with local ties present in the text.

In the 1990s, we had the Sokal Affair, and the problem of postmodernist denial of reality has been with us from the 1970s at least. I have personally heard a professor of physics claim that "gravity is a social construct"; she was not amused when she was asked why she didn't step out of the window of the fourth floor of the faculty and simply changed her perception of gravity to enable her to float to the ground.

Not trying to rag on Lindsay, but he's very much a "Johnny come lately" in these matters.

Oh geez. Married to a physicist. For 52 years.

Expand full comment

I was married to a Ph.D. EE for 52 years, almost 53 when he died. I worked as a tech with a bunch of physicists. They would talk about "dazzling with bulls#!t" when they wanted to influence people but didn't necessarily have the goods.

Expand full comment

I think it's: "If you can't dazzle them with brilliance, baffle the with bullshit". First read on some chachkies stuff at Spencer's Gifts decades ago

Expand full comment

Thanks. Maybe the guys I knew were just lazy saying "dazzle them with bullshit". haha

Expand full comment

Lindsay is a showman too obviously admiring of his own tricks.

Expand full comment

It's funny, but also sad and frightening that people are that ignorant. They are capable of just about any atrocity against anyone who does not agree with them. The professor of physics really had no excuse for espousing such a stupid claim, and yet, it happened! It's shocking and disturbing.

One my fellow students in grad school found was on "the negative correlation between IQ and penis size", which was a followup to "the negative correlation between IQ and breast size."

Expand full comment

I would have thought there were explicit Rules in the sperm donor contracts that would absolve the donor of any responsibility for children. What would that guy do who was the donor for dozens of kids if all the wimmenfolkx sued him for support?

Expand full comment

I saw that last video on facebook. It's real. I don't know if they're all real. I know the one about the 1st amendment is real.

They're probably all real, but I need confirmation. I hate admitting it but hat's just how I roll.

and I was wrong about the last one, so I'm told. Argh! Foiled again.

But I saw it on Facebook. It must be real. ;-(

Hopefully they'll have gone the Way of Darwin within a generation. Between cutting off all reproductive organs, deciding they're not going to reproduce because climate, pairing up in non-reproductive ways, and becoming scary nompaths - they are surely doomed to an evolutionary cul-de-sac? Yes? Yes? Please, yes?

We can vote all we want. We can wear t-shirts making fun or make memes. We can fire all the teachers. Etc., etc., etc. But they are in law school, they run companies. They took over all the security agencies, intel , and media and college faculty and admin., not to mention public health. How on earth do we get out from under this?

Expand full comment

Step aside from the machine, stop contributing to it as to as great an extent as is feasible for you, help others of like mind to do that, even if you may conflict on other issues, and prepare for when it collapses, whether that will be a rapid-onset collapse as Jugoslavia, or a slow rotting and withering away of the old system.

It may happen in a few years, and it may happen after we're dead and gone.

Remember, in 1985 we all thought the DDR would last longer than anyone alive at the time.

In 1989 the Wall came down.

I don't have the time nor inclination to attempt to distinguish the woke from the joke, however, I would ❤️❤️LUV❤️❤️ to see "Woke or Joke" as a weekly feature-- it's so meme-y. I find it helps to be reminded, peeps out there really are nutso-- but plenty remain sane-- and, along with the vitamins I take, I like me some laughs.

As for the NPR lady's word salad, I'd like to pour some vinegar on that, like 10 gallons. Normally I wouldn't care if someone's such an arrogant dope, but my tax dollars are paying her salary, and that of her minions.

All of them are real except maybe the sperm donor video. I would think that would be illegal and men wouldnstop donating sperm.Several are from Katherine Maher.

Obviously your right because the fact that the hair color is normal gave her acting away.

Expand full comment

Isn’t sperm donation anonymous? I don’t think you can just “get his contact info.” 1 and 6 I know are quotes from Katherine Maher.

Expand full comment

You can't just get the contact info per se but it's also not anonymous anymore. There's a big push to create more rights for donor-conceived people, mostly based on the premise that you should be entitled to know who your biological parents are.

Many jurisdictions have outright banned anonymous sperm donation.

I thought that with IVF, there wasn't supposed to be any actual screwing? Because that sperm donor, he just got an 18 year long fucking.

If the second video is true, that woman should be in prison. For a long time. In a cell right next to the lawyer who took her case and the judge who ruled in her favor.

And maybe the sperm donation place who should've had a disclaimer in their contract.

IF it's real, that is. I have my doubts.
