The death of Title IX

...or, follow the political scientist, not the science.

The Democrat (not a democratic) party has change remarkably in the past few years, much more than any maligned shifts in the Republican party over that time. Basically, Donald Trump's policies were not that different from Ronald Reagan's positions. What differed was their personalities, their communication styles. Ronnie was the great communicator; Donald was, well. just Donald, a lot of ego, bluster, and bloviating under notoriously thin skin. Contrast that with Reagan's description as being the 'teflon' president.

It was this shift of the Dems that created Hillary's 'deplorable.' Look hard, and you will see that this demographic was once the backbone of the Democrat party: working class, gun owning, fiscally conservative, and elderly people. The Dems were also hawks; under Dems, America went into World War II, Korea and Vietnam. But in the last thirty or forty years -- primarily post Roe v Wade -- the Dems threw their lot in with social interest 'identity' groups, the result of lax immigration policies, the Great Society, single parent family poverty, and outright pandering. Even LBJ acknowledged that one aspect of his civil rights bill -- passed only due to the support of Republicans -- meant that the Dems 'owned' the African-American vote. Now the Dems are pandering to Millennials, offering free college and debt relief as a means to earn their support. We now have an entire generation of expensively educated, underemployed, unskilled and entitled young adults, at the same time the baby boomers produced by the greatest generation have now begun to age and die off; the youngest Boomers turn 65 this year, just as Covid attacks the over-75 demographic while presenting little threat to those under the age of thirty.

All of the above is preface to Biden's executive order to promote gender identity. The always prescient Tony Heller makes the concise response to this new form of NOT following the science, when he acknowledges the end of 1974 feminism (see photo) and the endorsement of dangerous involvement of biological men choosing to play in women's sports (see the other photo).

To be clear, the distinction between science and political science could not be more apparent, or between scientists and political science, just as stark as the difference between critical thinking and personal feelings.
