Not Just Pronouns: Now "Trans" Activists Want to Control Your Bathroom Habits - The New American

It’s not enough for “transgender” activists to control how you speak with their pronoun prescriptions (e.g., ze, zir, zem). Now ze want to control your bathroom habits, too. Seriously.

This came to light after men attending a recent American Political Science Association (APSA) conference were asked to refrain from using urinals “out of respect for” others. The issue?

“Transmen” — meaning, women masquerading as men — may be triggered, offended, or disturbed because they can’t perform the nature call in question standing up.

As Twitchy reports, “Way back in 2017, we had a glimpse into where things were headed when we saw the restroom signs at Hampshire College that read, ‘Restroom With Urinals’ and ‘Restroom Without Urinals.’ Flash forward to 2022, and schools were installing tampon dispensers in boys’ rooms to comply with the Menstrual Dignity Act.”

It all is an act, too. But that doesn’t mean people aren’t serious about it. The sign with which the APSA made the sit-down request is below.

MUST SEE: Radical Rep. Rashida Tlaib ERUPTS After CEO Jamie Dimon Schools Her on Energy Policy (VIDEO)

Far-left Rep. Rashida Tlaib (MI-D) asked all the bank executives if they have a policy against funding new oil and gas products.

Tlaib erupted after JP Morgan Chase CEO Jamie Dimon humiliated her with his highly concise and on-point response.

“Absolutely not and that would be the road to Hell for America,” Dimon replied.

In response, Rashida Tlaib launched an attack on the bank and urged customers to close their JP Morgan accounts.

“You know what? Everybody that got released from student loans that have a bank account with your bank should probably take out their account and close their account,” Tlaib said.

There was not a single bank CEO agreed with Tlaib that they should stop financing fossil energy.

Air Force Academy tells cadets to be gender inclusive by avoiding using 'mom and dad,' report | Just The News

The Air Force Academy has reportedly told cadets in diversity and inclusion training to use words that "include all genders" and to refrain from using terms such as "mom and dad."

"Some families are headed by single parents, grandparents, foster parents, two moms, two dads, etc.: consider 'parent or caregiver' instead of 'mom and dad,' " the presentation stated on a slide, Fox News reported Thursday.

"Use words that include all genders​: 'Folks' or 'Y’all' instead of 'guys'; 'partner' vs. 'boyfriend or girlfriend,'" cadets were told in the academy's "Diversity & Inclusion: What it is, why we care, & what we can do," presentation.

Newspapers Cancel “Dilbert” Cartoon for Making Fun of Wokeness - The New American

This week, according to “Dilbert” comic-strip cartoonist Scott Adams, Lee Enterprises — which has nearly 100 newspapers in the United States — has decided to suspend the use of his comic strip in their papers. The cancellation, Adams said, has had a “substantial” negative impact on his finances.

Why did Lee Enterprises ditch “Dilbert”? Because, in a September 20 comic strip, Adams dared to poke fun at the “woke” culture that has became so pervasive in American society.

In my mind, these are related.

Teacher Defines “Fascist” for Students as “Republican” & “Christian” - The New American

In a picture taken by the student whistleblower, the word fascism appears underlined at the top of the board. Underneath that, the English teacher put down terms such as “Trump,” “heterosexual,” “White,” “Christian,” and more.

“He goes on to insult white people and Christian people, automatically putting them under … that they’re automatically fascist,” the student was quoted as saying by the Examiner, which withheld his identity over concerns of retaliation by the teacher or school.



Masters of Deceit: The Government's Propaganda of Fear, Mind Control & Brain Warfare - The New American

Just recently, for example, the Pentagon was compelled to order a sweeping review of clandestine U.S. psychological warfare operations (psy ops) conducted through social media platforms. The investigation comes in response to reports suggesting that the U.S. military has been creating bogus personas with AI-generated profile pictures and fictitious media sites on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram in order to manipulate social media users.

Of the many weapons in the government’s vast arsenal, psychological warfare (or psy ops) can take many forms: mind control experiments, behavioral nudging, propaganda.



Maine's Education Department Says 'MAGA' Is A Racist Phrase

The Education Department of Maine’s Democrat Gov. Janet Mills is referring to the slogan “Make America Great Again” (MAGA), as a form of covert racism, according to a new report.

In an instructional webinar video for students and teachers discovered by Breitbart News, a slideshow presentation titled “Racism is a Virus” lists out several terms, phrases, and actions that individuals should associate with racism and white supremacy. In addition to “MAGA,” the phrase made famous by former President Donald Trump and his supporters, the slideshow lists “Calling the police on black people,” “All Lives Matter,” “anti-immigration policies,” “paternalism,” “meritocracy myth,” “colorblindness,” and “Columbus Day” as a few of the examples of racism.

“The video comes as part of a slideshow, or ‘module,’ recommended by the state Education Department’s Maine Online Opportunities for Sustained Education (MOOSE) for high school-aged students,” the Breitbart report reads. “Slide 15 of the module offers resources for students, which include only a few links, two of them being to Black Lives Matter’s and GLAAD’s websites.”

Attacks On Jews Could Come To Your House Of Worship Next

The latest attack comes from The New York Times. On Sept. 11, the Times published a report of its year-long “investigation” into the crown jewel of our community, our education system. Despite the report’s thin trappings of investigative journalism, the charge — plainly stated — was that Chassidic-Americans are too corrupt, abusive of children, and illiterate to be treated as equal members of society.

The Times fired another salvo on Sept. 16, arguing essentially for vesting extraordinary authority in state government and local school boards to “protect” our children from our “failing” schools and better prepare them for the future. Oy!

I fear they have a very different vision for my children’s future than my wife and I do.

The purge is for real now. They are going to silence anyone, one way or another, that doesn't agree with them.

LGBT Group Against Child Sexualization Is Big Tech's New Target

Agay coalition group against the sexualization and indoctrination of children by the modern left-wing LGBT movement has now become the target of tech giants including Google, PayPal, Venmo, and Twitter, which have shut off online services.

The group, “Gays Against Groomers,” was blacklisted by PayPal and Venmo, the latter of which is owned by PayPal, over apparent violations of the two companies’ Acceptable Use policies. Neither firm, however, specified which policies warranted the group’s banishment from their platforms.

San Francisco passes controversial surveillance plan

Under the new policy, police can access up to 24 hours of live video of outdoor footage from private surveillance cameras owned by individuals or businesses without a warrant as long as the camera's owner allows it. Police must meet one of three outlined criteria to use their newfound power: they must be responding to a life-threatening emergency, deciding how to deploy officers in response to a large public event or conducting a criminal investigation that was approved in writing by a captain or higher-ranking police official.

Planned Parenthood Scrubs Preborn Heartbeat Milestone From Site

Planned Parenthood recently revamped its description of an unborn baby’s heartbeat to prop up the conspiracy theory that the pulsation of the infant’s blood-pumping, developing heart as measured by technology is not actually a heartbeat. The web page in question, titled “What happens in the second month of pregnancy?” outlines the developmental milestones unborn babies reach during the middle of the first trimester.

An archived version of Planned Parenthood’s website from July shows “a very basic beating heart and circulatory system” are present in a baby’s in utero development around 5 to 6 weeks gestation.

Satanic group gets school district to drop rule banning clothes with satanic, cultic references. Satanic group's leader exults that school officials 'caved.' - TheBlaze

Satanic Delco noted in its post that prior to dropping the ban, Garnet Valley "didn’t want to change the policy because they feared the backlash and bad press they would receive for caving to a group of Satanists. I’m happy to report that they have in fact caved."

The group added that "Garnet Valley students are now free to express their Satanism on equal footing, alongside their fellow students of every other religion" and ended the post with a hearty "HAIL SATAN!" exclamation in all capital letters.

'Act of malice': Pro-abortion terror group attacks another pro-life pregnancy center, issues death threats - TheBlaze

On September 16, pro-abortion militants attacked the Mother and Unborn Baby Care pregnancy center in Southfield, Michigan, which serves nearly 200 women a year. The militants shattered windows and vandalized the establishment with spray paint, writing, "If abortions aren't safe, neither are you." They signed their death threat "Jane."

"Jane" is in reference to the pro-abortion terror group "Jane's Revenge," which began targeting pro-life institutions ahead of the Supreme Court's June 24 ruling that overturned Roe v. Wade. The terror group has claimed responsibility for at least 18 out of the hundreds of similar attacks on pro-life centers, churches, and individuals. Some of these attacks have involved firebombings and resulted in injuries.

Spanish government official reportedly claims 'children ... can love or have sexual relations with whomever they want' - TheBlaze

A member of the Spanish government recently caught the attention of the international community after she made controversial statements regarding children and sexual consent.

Irene Montero, the 34-year-old minister of equality in Spain, recently said in Spanish at a recent legislative meeting: "All girls, boys, childrenx in this country have the right to know their own body, to know that no adult can touch their body if they don't want to and that is a form of violence, they have the right to know that they can love or have sexual relations with whoever they want, based on consent."

A video of her comments went viral on social media late last week.

Public Buses Across Country Quietly Adding Microphones to Record Passenger Conversations | WIRED

TRANSIT AUTHORITIES IN cities across the country are quietly installing microphone-enabled surveillance systems on public buses that would give them the ability to record and store private conversations, according to documents obtained by a news outlet.

The systems are being installed in San Francisco, Baltimore, and other cities with funding from the Department of Homeland Security in some cases, according to the Daily, which obtained copies of contracts, procurement requests, specs and other documents.

The use of the equipment raises serious questions about eavesdropping without a warrant, particularly since recordings of passengers could be obtained and used by law enforcement agencies.

New Zealand Prime Minister Calls for a Global Censorship System – JONATHAN TURLEY

But what if that lie, told repeatedly, and across many platforms, prompts, inspires, or motivates others to take up arms. To threaten the security of others. To turn a blind eye to atrocities, or worse, to become complicit in them. What then?

This is no longer a hypothetical. The weapons of war have changed, they are upon us and require the same level of action and activity that we put into the weapons of old.

We recognized the threats that the old weapons created. We came together as communities to minimize these threats. We created international rules, norms and expectations. We never saw that as a threat to our individual liberties – rather, it was a preservation of them. The same must apply now as we take on these new challenges.

Deep State Targeting Your MIND, Literally

Deep State totalitarians are now targeting your mindset and worldview as they move toward the Great Reset and the New World Order, warns The New American magazine's Alex Newman in this episode of Behind The Deep State. This includes using propaganda, lies, "nudging," emotional manipulation, and brainwashing masquerading as "education," Alex warns. World Economic Forum chief Klaus Schwab openly said "mindsets" must be transformed. The United Nations has made similarly alarming comments. Key officials from the Obama and Biden administrations are working on using "behavioral insights" in this effort to transform people's minds. And according to whistleblowers, Rick Stengel, former Obama undersecretary of state, operates an outfit called the Good Info Foundation, that is paying influencers big money to lie to Americans. Speaking at the Council on Foreign Relations, Stengel boasted of the alleged benefits of using propaganda against Americans. People like Obama regulatory "czar" Cass Sunstein, meanwhile, have advocated the use of "nudging" to shift people's views and behavior. British authorities have been doing it for a long time. Working with the UN, John Podesta--a key operative with the Clinton family and Obama--also spoke of the need to change people's mindsets.

'Abolish the Family' book pushes radical ideas - TheBlaze

In a forthcoming book titled, "Abolish the Family," the author "makes the case for family abolition," according to a book description that calls author Sophie Lewis a "leading feminist critic."

The radical book, which is subtitled "A Manifesto for Care and Liberation," is slated to be released next week

Lewis states on her Patreon page that she is "an unpaid visiting scholar at The Alice Paul Center for Research on Gender, Sexuality and Women at the University of Pennsylvania, and an occasional teacher for the Brooklyn Institute for Social Research." The Brooklyn Institute for Social Research website indicates that Lewis is a faculty member.

In a piece posted on the website of the New Statesman, a progressive magazine in the U.K., Erin Maglaque, a historian at the University of Sheffield, described Lewis as "our most eloquent, furious and funny critic of how the family is a terrible way to satisfy all of our desires for love, care, nourishment" and wrote that Lewis's work "offers a powerful introduction to the world beyond the nuclear family."
