The Title IX Terror

Very early in the French Revolution, France found herself at war with the rest of Europe. For reasons we will not go into here, the French declared war on Austria in the spring of 1792 and soon Prussia joined in on the Austrian side. Eventually England was fielding an army on the continent as well. One of the many interesting things about the French Revolution is that the country was radically rearranging itself at the same time it was defending itself on all sides. The war and the revolution soon became intertwined.

By the time the Jacobins and the Committee for Public Safety had taken control of France and the revolution, things looked dire for the French army. Many of their officers had fled the country as they were of noble blood. Others fled for lack of pay and support. Those who rose up to replace them were often incompetent boobs, but loyal to the revolution. The solution the revolutionaries in Paris found to this problem was to begin executing their generals for treason. That’s right. The solution was to murder the generals.

The logic behind this was quite simple. Since the new men of the Republic were now in charge of the army, the army was a republican army stocked with virtuous men of the Republic. France was now the first nation in history mobilized for total war. If the army was now composed of virtuous men of the Republic, with the full support of the Republic, the only thing that could stop them was failure at the top and that failure could only be due to treason. The generals failed because they wanted to fail or planned to fail.

There is an important lesson here that has been with us ever since the French Revolution. The Utopian dreamers of the Left always lock in on two unassailable beliefs. One is their vision of the perfect society and the other is their ideal citizens for that society. Those two things become axiomatic, so when things fail to materialize, those two items are off the table. They can never be questioned. Instead, the hunt is on for enemies, heretics and schemers, who are actively trying to undermine the cause.

That’s what has happened on the college campus with regards to the Title IX jihad against men, particularly white men.The original purpose of Title IX was to get more women into graduate schools. In the 70’s, when this odious law was dreamed up, graduate schools, particularly law schools, were still dominated by men. By the time the law was actually passed and implemented in the Clinton administration, women dominated the college campus. They held most of the majority of staff positions, were the majority of undergrads and dominated most of the post-graduate schools.

The feminist pushing this law, however, always had other ideas. They had the radical dream of the female utopia on the college campus and, of course, the ideal revolutionary co-ed. When reality would not yield to their particular brand of lunacy, they went looking for enemies. After all, the dream is perfect and women of virtue were now in charge. The only reason utopia has not bloomed on campus is there must be enemies in their midst and those enemies have a penis! As a result, the campus has become a feminist toxic waste dump.

This story is emblematic of the insanity. You’ll note that tucked away in the story is the reference to a “Dear Colleague” letter – which urged schools to lower the standard of proof for sexual assault and misconduct. The reason for this is that when the feminist nutters found a witch to burn, they were confronted with the silly problem of actually having to prove their case. Since almost all of these cases involve either drunk people or crazy people, there was rarely a way to actually prove anything.

Instead, the enemies of the people were allowed to hide behind those antiquated rules of justice, which were all written by dick wielding enemies of the feminist revolution! In other words, the innocence of the accused is more proof that they are clever and crafty traitors working to undermine the revolution. It’s why every college campus has a Title IX officer now. These tinpot Torquemadas exist to circumvent justice in order to champion the cause of the just.

This too has echos of the French Revolution. The Jacobins sent what were essentially ideological enforcers out into the provinces. They sent Representatives on Mission to watch the generals in the field. During the Terror, Robespierre turned on his former friends, the Girondins, but making his case against them in open court became difficult. The solution was to find them guilty first and then worry about other stuff later. Nothing could stand in the way of the virtuous, as they furthered the cause of the revolution.

It is this toxic atmosphere that encourages the rape hoaxes that have become a feature of campus life. The gyno-revolution is not only short of enemies to persecute, it is short of victims too. That’s why a patently ridiculous story like the Rolling Stone hoax goes unchallenged for so long. It’s not just that these fanatics want to believe it. They have to believe it as to do otherwise means questioning the premise of the revolution and that is a good way to have your life ruined.

It is foolish to think that the Feds will ever find the balls to repeal Title IX or even scale back its scope. One reason feminist nutters are going berserk in the streets is in order to inoculate themselves to the Trumpian reform efforts. The answer will come in the Federal courts as more victims of the Title IX Terror press their case and win judgments. A few fines and the revolution is over. It’s a terrible way to solve the problem, but it is what happens when you put women in charge of anything.

I think I read somewhere that the Trump administration is talking about de-weaponizing Title IX. This impressed me because it is a measure of how deeply they are drilling down into the fascist bullshit we have been dealing with. Rolling Stone got hit with a big judgment. Let’s hope there are many more to come as I agree that will eventually put an end to kangaroo courts on campus.

Media is the model for higher education. The old media can marinate in their virtue signaling, while the new media rises to take its place. In a similar way, allow old education to chase its tail, and watch for-profit and on-line take over, especially for the male half. All those squirrelly women can live together at very expensive schools, wondering why they aren’t having any fun. Of course, there will be the predatory lesbians hazing the freshmen (freshwomen?). As Trump is breaking down so many other cultural norms, perhaps he can break the hold that Harvard/Yale/the Ivies have on our… Read more »

I’ve been trying to to find the spot, but my copy of Xenophon’s Symposium has no index. Here’s the wiki https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Callias_III. Callous was a wealthy Athenian who bankrupted himself by paying sophists for education. I think I once calculated a payment made by him to one of his teachers at $200,000 in US dollars ten or fifteen years ago. How people value things is a nebulous affair, but it is obvious that things can get out of hand. We are living in an education bubble that will eventually burst, but it is being held together by credentialism. This is one… Read more »

The orchestrated colledge debt is a subsidy dressed up as higher education, but really funding for cultural maxims with a vagina. Bankrupting the system is icing on the cake of order out of chaos. Once the reasons for financing this aspect of the agenda are completed, higher education is no longer required. So it matters not if it collapses.

Politically it might be a lower priority, but it tactical terms in the long term culture war attacking higher education is of the utmost priority. Academia and the universities is the keystone of the left. Its the rock the whole movement is built on, and it’s the one thing most of the ideological components of the left have in common. It’s the source of all their moral and ideological authority.

When I think of this issue in the context of “Drain the Swamp” I also include the legal/judicial system which enables this kind of frivolous action to proceed. It is apparent that Progressives dominate the judiciary and Trump with his many appointments at the District/Appellate/Federal levels can do much to provide some balance to the nuttery that is going on. Freedom of speech is one thing. Freedom to waste people’s time and tax payers money on this kind of stuff, for virtue signalling or for character assassination is not something I support.

It is pretty simple. Soon as people begin to understand living up to ones values absolutely is not predicated on somebody else, or an ideology, defining what values are, which themselves have a complete absence of values, there then the epiphany “I Don’t Care what you think about my values”, those pulling this crap and what they think have no value.

In 1948, Wallace was a proxy agent for Stalin?
Wallace had been FDR’s Vice President.
So not surprised.

I’ve long thought WWII was FDR saving Stalin from threats on his left and right flank.
The War to Save Communism, except that American communists wanted to be the Supreme Soviet.

(Since Mao was Stalin’s buttboy- exiled twice by the Chinese communist party, brought back by Moscow troops- that would complete Orwell’s dread vision of Fabian Oceania, Soviet Eurasia, and Communist Eastasia.
And… Mao had the same (((advisors))) as did (((Stalin))), not one member of the Long March on his inner council.)

I think Churchill always smelled a rat. He certainly was keen enough to know what was afoot. He wasn’t in the best position to raise a stink about it. But he was real quick to come up with the name of The Iron Curtain, so you would think he understood pretty far back. He certainly alluded to it in some of his speeches. Besides, FDR was trying to cut the British Empire down to size in any case. The German Army was no push over.

Men and women are complements not than duplicates. We all instinctively know and relate to each other in this way.

Z Man; It is a keen insight to be see the paralllels between modern Feminism and Jacobinism and to be able to establish evidence through demonstration. To push the analogy a little, just as today’s toxic Feminism is a mutant fusion of Marxism and Post-Modern Multiculturalism, so Jacobinism was a mutant offspring of The Enlightenment, Rousseau and Anti-Clericalism. Also, the Russian Revolution provides pretty apt parallel good examples of the same political processes driven by rabid utopianism even though their visions of human perfection were different.

Indeed, Luther was right about the reformation. Further it’s effects on the time after the French indian wars up to the Declaration of Independence, the reformation had a long reaching profound effect on the colonial patriots. I’d say too, you must includes the Fabian’s in there someplace in the statist/marxist equation. In some aspects they are more influential in later American history than the Jocobin’s.

Don’t fuck crazy girls. Girls who initiate with you have initiated or will initiate with someone else. A girl’s politics is a good clue as to her sanity. I would recommend one slightly to the right and not too judgemental. A hard right winger probably won’t do any better job raising kids than a hard left-winger will. And if she’s slightly to the right in early child rearing years she will most likely drift farther to the right as she ages. All good there.

This Michigan State story is, in its entirety (including the tranny twist), the most perverse college dating saga I’ve ever heard. No parent should send any son they care about to any state school in Michigan, period. And should said son still demand to go, he must be forbidden from having any contact with any coed outside class under any circumstances. And if he can’t control his impulses, a Detroit ho is not a lot more risky in the long term so long as he uses protection. Good God_!
