Michael Anton is scaring me.

In very few cases did it result in “woke” men eschewing their hitherto toxic masculinity. I have no idea where the pajama soy boys are coming from – indoctrinated in the cradle, I suppose.

Query: if men are such a toxic gender, why are any women transitioning to Male?

Good point. I think you are correct that the basic template was set with the sexual harassment trainings, which predated the others.

Way back around 25 or so years ago I had to attend a “mandatory” four day junior league propaganda and “struggle session” at the Federal research organization I worked for (the only time our supposedly critical and essential organization stopped its work for any such “mandatory” class, even for a couple of hours, much less four days), led by some junior grade, burn ’em at the stake female feminist consultant/Inquisitor, and the theme was how oppressed and harassed females were in the Federal workplace.

And, boy, was it obvious how much she hated men.

I still remember the dopey movie she showed us, about how a clueless male office worker met a female in his office who he liked at the water cooler, and how–in his socially awkward and nerdy way–he very gently and tentatively tried to ask her to have lunch with him, and she just brushed him off.

A couple of days later he was shown passing by the threshold of her cubicle, and in a low key and very respectful way asking again, and he was again turned down.

And that was it, he walked away disappointed.

In this “training” film, this was the extent of this guy’s interaction with the female–no real pressure, no other meetings between the two of them, no phone calls, no presents, no notes, no stalking–nothing.

Yet this, said our inquisitor, was an obvious and flagrant example of cruel and crude sexual harassment by the male.

As I recall, another part of this “training” was the trainer tying to get us to volunteer our ideas, or to respond to certain questions designed to reveal our supposed “prejudicial ideas and behavior.”

Those of us who were forced to attend noted that the people in major leadership positions were somehow exempt from attending these four days of “mandatory” training “everybody” was supposed to attend, with some only attending for a token couple of hours one day of the four so that they could claim to have “attended”–too busy doing important work, don’t ya know.

Do Democrats threaten a coup on Trump’s re-election?

At Zerohedge, Anton gets endorsement and critique, raising two worthy points.

First, can it be a coup if it isn’t a surprise? How can there be all this talk if they plot one?

Two, a coup requires force of arms to succeed. Democrats don’t have this.

But, what about the June threat of a coup by the Generals? Barr used a DoD workaround to defend against White House assault!

Doesn’t that support the seriousness of the treason threat of the Generals?

It’s true that armed force is huge. But what if the “colour revolutions” of the past decade or not long before?

Assessing these claims and counter-claims strikes me as important and worthy in finding a path beyond November.

Bruce Bawer adds something at the bottom of his AmGreatness piece that others have complained about: what about Woke schools? Propaganda loved by the NEA?

Bawer says lat Sunday night, Trump’s DoEd is acting against the Hate America First “1619 project” of NYTimes favorite Marxist liars:

This Labor Day weekend, Trump made a double bogey. Not content to take on these “training sessions” in the federal government, Trump followed up the Friday memo from the OMB with a Sunday tweet in which he broke some exceedingly welcome news. The Department of Education, he announced, would henceforth be under orders to defund any California schools found to be making use of the reprehensible “1619 Project.”
