We live in strange times. While women are being openly raped in Europe, and young White children, by the millions groomed by rape gangs in Britain, there has been a growing movement to out and expose powerful men, mainly in the US entertainment industry for sexual misadventures. We have covered the #MeeToo movement before, noting that there are certainly legitimate cases of rape and that the men responsible need to be brought before the law. However, as observed by Claire Berlinski in a recent article at The American Interest, these fully legitimate concerns have ballooned out of all proportion, and have grown into another feminist assault upon men:
“If you are reading this, it means I have found an outlet that has not just fired an editor for sexual harassment. This article circulated from publication to publication, like old-fashioned samizdat, and was rejected repeatedly with a sotto voce, “Don’t tell anyone. I agree with you. But no.” Friends have urged me not to publish it under my own name, vividly describing the mob that will tear me from limb to limb and leave the dingoes to pick over my flesh. It says something, doesn’t it, that I’ve been more hesitant to speak about this than I’ve been of getting on the wrong side of the mafia, al-Qaeda, or the Kremlin?
