An Inopportune Rape (Or, How I Learned to Hate the Left)

Did you hear? CNN took the photo of biracial Umpqua College mass killer Chris Harper-Mercer and turned him white! Lightened his skin, thinned his nose, flared his nostrils…the whole Voldemort treatment. Damn racist liberal media! Except it turned out to be a hoax. Some 4chan troll decided to ...

That Every Mensch Be Armed

I could see it in my website traffic: Someone in the public eye had said something stupid about Jews and guns. People were trying to fact-check the comment, and they were heading straight for my site. A piece I wrote in January 2013 ridiculing a familiar gun rights meme (the one that goes something ...

Niqab Nightmare

I rarely show much interest in Canadian politics. Truth be told, I think of Canadians as the friendly, quiet neighbors who keep their front lawn neatly manicured and their business to themselves. Not like those other neighbors, the ones who always hop my fence and trample my flower bed. So I reward ...

Hard Right, Easy Mark

Joshua Goldberg is a walking stereotype of an Internet troll (Fat? Check. Lives with his mom? Check. No social life? Check). Through his complicated network of online personas, Goldberg was a one-man flame war. He impersonated an ISIS-affiliated Muslim radical, a Jewish lawyer, a free-speech-hating ...

Our Delicate Muslims

A phone rings in the Oval Office. President Obama drops his practice club and rushes to his desk. Raising the handset of the turquoise-green, crescent-decorated emergency phone to his ear, he listens, his face reflecting the intensity of the moment. It's as he feared"€”somewhere in America, a ...

One Foot in the Bunker

It was a bad night for Boris. Emmy award-winning composer Boris Zelkin (also known as the conservative pundit "€œLenin's Barber"€) and I had just engaged in a valiant online battle against GOP feeblemindedness, and we"€™d lost. It was August 2012, and more than a few members of our circle of ...

Queerer in the Bathroom

Last week, a 17-year-old boy in a wig and a skirt made national headlines by demanding to use the girls"€™ restroom and locker room at his small-town Missouri high school. The young man, whose real first name has not been released, began publicly calling himself "€œLila"€ this year, proudly ...

Nazis vs. Muslims: Who Hateth the Most?

Poor Curt Schilling. Last week, the legendary pitcher dared to tweet about the two things you just don"€™t tweet about (or talk about or whisper about or describe via charades): Muslims and Nazis. Schilling tweeted, "€œIt's said that only 5"€“10% of Muslims are extremists. In 1940, only 7% of ...

The Right’s Jewish Problem

South Park loves taking shots at Hollywood leftists, and never was that done with more skill than in the episode "€œSmug Alert,"€ in which liberal self-satisfaction, personified by George Clooney and his 2006 Oscar acceptance speech, forms a giant cloud of "€œSmug,"€ a deadly combination ...

Bernie Sanders

The Revolution Will Not Be Emphasized

Leftists truly understand the power of labels. They know that labels, properly utilized, have the ability to stigmatize and marginalize. "€œCisgender"€ is a perfect example. The left has persuaded millions of people to use a term that essentially means "€œI"€™m normal."€ To understand ...
