Like so much leftist doctrine, gender ideology claims to speak for the vulnerable, while being in reality an ideology of managerial control (1,300 words, 7 minutes)
Thanks for the encouraging words. I too am a member of the laptop class, and have too many degrees, including two from McGill. You are correct that Melanie Bennet has PhD. Pretty sure Dr Smart is intelligent - you can't get through med school without learning many facts and thinking quickly. The problem is smart people who believe ridiculous things, and use their intelligence to invent justifications for those things. I think Rob Henderson has written on that.
Oh man, so excellent. I love your work. Just a quick note, as someone who lives in both worlds (managerial class, urban Laurentian 'elite', McGill grad and now a HUGE dissenter), your assessment is spot on, yet this also isn't really about actual education (I think Melanie has a PHD in earth sciences, has a strong academic background and worked in climate science) and while I don't know Mia's education she is very obviously intelligent and highly literate and an outstanding detail oriented researcher. The two ladies are super smart critical thinkers, probably more so that Dr. Smart (ha), BUT as you say, this is ALL about social status and social class. Having one foot in the managerial/elite class I can say, with authority, all is not well there.
