Is Sexism Really To Blame For Serena Williams' Penalties? Sep 10, 2018

Show notes

Serena Williams broke the rules and was penalized for it but she says that men get away with breaking the rules all the time. Following the match she decried what she says is sexism and many agree. However when I look into archives I can see that Serena has a history of bad behavior, men do get penalized, and so do other women. Why would this incident be worse than others? Is this an incident of unreasonable feminist "social just warriors" in action or a just and honorable call out of bigoted behavior from the ump? Sexism in Tennis does exist and we have even seen recent examples, but is it fair to say this incident was the same?

The Far Left Opposes Science Even When They Think Its True Sep 09, 2018

Show notes

Vox typically takes the stance that differences in race based statistics are due to environmental factors. But in the past they have published a few op-eds that argued in favor of race realist beliefs but simply argued they were morally wrong to pursue. We have had a few issues of political take downs of scientific articles in the past week or so and this led me to look at why the Left would push for articles to be unpublished. It would seem that even though they might agree with the science they view it as morally wrong.

Conservatives Win? Nike's Kaepernick Campaign Is Backfiring Sep 08, 2018

Show notes

Nike sales are up and people are claiming that this is proof they did the right thing with hiring Colin Kaepernick. But market research data shows that ALL demographics, even democrats, view Nike less favorably following their campaign. The controversy may have resulted in a temporary sales increase but this may be due to tribalists buying products to show support. It would seem that by entering the culture war on the side of Social Justice they have only damaged their image in the long term. Even among Democrats Nike favorability has declined. They sacrificed their entire Republican base on this campaign and even Gen Z and the Democrats have pulled back.

The Far-Left "OK" Conspiracy So Nuts Even CNN Calls Them out Sep 05, 2018

Show notes

The far left is once again claiming that the ok sign is a secret dog whistle and that Zina Bash, by simply crossing her arms in an odd way, was signaling a certain group of people. But this is insane nonsense. They are sharing a simple video of a random woman crossing her arms, thats it. Whats funny here is that some of these people pushing the conspiracy have, in the past, called for Alex Jones to banned over pushing a conspiracy theory. It seems like we have another case of "its ok when we do it" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=li7xxMaKqlo&index=2&list=PLxQaod7tWvYKEVcKAEvH3BVpeqbAlhSdR&t=0s

Conservative Boycott of NIKE May Already be Working Sep 04, 2018

Show notes

Conservatives are calling for a NIKE boycott after the company launched an ad featuring Colin Kaepernick. In the early morning we saw NIKE stock fall with some outlets reporting a connection to the boycott. So is the Nike boycott actually causing the stock fall or is it just a coincidence? Some people say Conservative Boycotts don't work but there are some examples of companies who have seen sales drop offs and shares fall amid the types of political issues,

Women Are Getting Attacked in Gender Neutral Rooms Sep 03, 2018

Show notes

New Data out of the UK says that nearly 90% of incidents against women happen in Gender Neutral rooms. The debate over how to best accommodate people has floated between gender neutral rooms and allowing anyone to use whichever room they choose. but with this new data and some high profile stories about people being accused of being the wrong gender we can see there is no easy solution to the issue.

Conservatives May have Just Won Another Culture War Battle Sep 02, 2018

Show notes

Conservative may have just won another battle in the culture war as many people are reporting that their QFD shadow bans have been lifted. While it is possible that the lift is not political it was an issue being decried by mostly conservative voices with many people on the left saying it was a conspiracy theory and not really happening. So why did Twitter remove the bans and does it have anything to do with Jack Dorsey testifying before congress in just a few days?

This Was An Ignorant Response To Jordan Peterson (Lawsuit Update) Sep 01, 2018

Show notes

Wilfred Laurier responded to Jordan Peterson and it was particularly ignorant. They claimed that Peterson should be suing Lindsey Shepherd because she published the recording of the incident. However this is wrong, Shepherd did not publish the recording, it was the National Post and Global news. The statement was Laurier's defense against defamation but they made a huge error in being factually incorrect.
