SCOTT GREENFIELD: The Angry Mob Within Google. “All of which presents an interesting dilemma as the early tech companies fueled by geeky excess and impropriety find themselves operating in the moment of #MeToo and hurt feelings: spewing the rhetoric of emotional well-being of its sensitive employees is easy, but when it comes at the cost of spurning the profitability of someone who created Android, even Google has to make a judgment call. If they want the technology, and the money it brings, from people who fail to meet the current standards of sexual propriety, or at least are believed to fail, are they prepared to put feelings over profit? What’s a business, even one as fabulously successful as Google, to do these days?”
Breaking these behemoths up would make these decisions less consequential.

DISPATCHES FROM THE EDUCATION APOCALYPSE: “A student group at a California university is hosting a month-long ‘Body Love’ celebration, which includes events about how ‘menstruation and environmentalism go hand in hand.’ Not, I think, an entirely happy image. But apparently, students will be ‘empowered’ and ‘feel more comfort’ by exploring the ‘intersection’ – because you knew there was going to be an intersection somewhere – of ‘body love and Earth love.’”

“Why is it always our people?” “Why us? Bork, Thomas, Alito, and now Kavanaugh. Why us? Because it’s a noble cause in their eyes to destroy a conservative judicial candidate, and I hope it blows up in their face. I hope politically they pay a price for this … losing is not enough, they need to pay a price at the ballot box.”

ANNALS OF LEFTIST AUTOPHAGY: “Democratic Missouri Sen. Claire McCaskill sparked a fierce backlash from a Democratic legislator in her home state after listing her as an example of a ‘crazy Democrat.’ In a scathing series of tweets on Monday and Tuesday, Missouri Democratic state Sen. Maria Chappelle-Nadal referred to McCaskill as ‘Dixie Claire,’ described her as a ‘piece of shit,’ compared her to a slave owner and accused ‘McCaskill and her racist democratic friends’ of alienating the party’s base voters. McCaskill raised eyebrows in the final weeks of the midterm campaign by running a radio ad that described McCaskill as ‘not one of those crazy Democrats.’”
