FREE SPEECH? NOT IF WE DON’T LIKE WHAT YOU HAVE TO SAY:

Meanwhile, the Ms. Foundation for Women, in cooperation with an outfit called the Service Women’s Action Network, has started an online petition “calling for the disciplining of” your humble columnist, whom they graciously describe as “prominent.” They find no fault with our account of the facts; they complain only of our “framing the campaign as a ‘war on men’ ” and of a few phrases they find neuralgic.

That is to say, they want a journalist to be punished for committing journalism–for accurately reporting the news and expressing an opinion contrary to feminist orthodoxy. It is a lovely example of the totalitarian mindset that is the core of contemporary feminism.

Indeed.
