She wasn’t personally aggrieved...

I agree with what you are saying, but the particular styling of a swimming costume is such a bizarre thing to legislate. What makes a burkini a burkini/representative of patriarchal social order? It seems like a comfortable thing to swim in.

Women died in Mad Max the ones who stayed behind

I’m less convinced by the stills and more convinced by the actual visual style and cinematography, if you watch them side by side.

It’s one thing to broaden your appeal. It’s another to lionize a war criminal.

Thanks for this and agree. Clinton’s courting of Kissinger, Condaleeza Rice, James Baker, George Schultz et al. for endorsements demonstrate the same cognitive dissonance she’s espousing.

GWB created the culture of generalized fear and hatred toward Muslim Americans by starting a monolithic War on Terror with random…
