Not enough hate in the world for New Statesman’s @suzanne_moore

On my ‘to do’ list for tomorrow was a link to an appalling recent piece by Suzanne Moore in New Statesman. Fortunately Paul Elam has spared me the task, and added some insightful commentary on the harridan, here. An extract from her article:

All the man victims, trapped by masculinity. Who could hate them? Their oppression is structural. You can’t hate them individually, can you?

You know what? I can. Please don’t confuse that with bitterness. I am in touch with my emotions enough to know the difference between personal hurt and class hatred.

As a class, I hate men. I’ve changed my mind. I am no longer reasonable. I want to see this class broken.

Amy Schumer: Anyone who is not a feminist is insane

Our thanks to Jeff for this. Catch the video (1:07) if you can. Ms Schumer is an American feminist ‘comedienne’, currently on tour in the UK. She has been ‘interviewed’ by Emily Maitlis for tonight’s BBC Newsnight. Can’t wait. From the BBC News piece:

“I think anyone who is not a feminist is an insane person. I think they don’t know what feminism means,” she said.

An unfunny feminist ‘comedienne’ touring the UK… as if there aren’t enough British ones, many of them employed by the BBC.

It’s good to be back after a very relaxing holiday, thoroughly rejuvenated. We have some busy months ahead of us.

Onwards and upwards!!!
