Former feminist and top-flight journalist Elizabeth Nickson has had it up to here with female Hollywood producers who make shows about enlightened media producers or old novels populated with hard-left or other stupid women. She has thoughts. She has informed indignation.
About inane TV scripts, and their female characters, Nickson writes,
"[TV is a wasteland]...of stupid women talking, like the Housewives or even more offensive, The Buccaneers. Edith Wharton’s last book (1920) was cast via skin shade dark-to-light, and rewritten in the you-go-Barbie-cheerleading-style, lots of screaming and running around the grass, shrieking and jumping up and down on beds, crossed with loads of resentment about their insane levels of wealth and THE PATRIARCHY. It is both boring and offensive.
"Hollywood, which is full-on demonic, can cast the great classics of American and English literature with black girls with vocal fry, but we can’t wear corn rows or self-tan, because “appropriation”. You freaking idiots, every line of Austen or Wharton is grounded in the ancestral memory of the people upon whom the characters are based and that is where the book/film gets its resonance and meaning, but go ahead trash our culture, you’ve trashed everything else.
"There is no peace in the streets, EVER, your people have started three wars in the last two years. You kill millions of babies and agitate to kill more babies. You’ve demanded so much money for social justice, we are broke ten times over, and risk a Weimar Germany hellscape. Your repulsive politicians have enabled criminal cartels to loot the public purse. We are being invaded by millions of military-aged men on the border, and at the border, hundreds of thousands of women and children are raped and being sold into sex slavery. Women – most women - have zero consciousness of any of this. Almost one hundred thousand children have vanished into the sex trade. But they want the border open because COMPASSION. Never mind the sharp uptick of crime, sooner or later, honey, you are going to want a gun and a man because the world you created - go girl – is so dangerous.
"YOU ARE THE STUPIDEST WOMEN WHO EVER LIVED.
"The fires last summer were caused by climate change.
Deplorables are awful.
Abortion is sacred.
J6 was not an FBI psy-op, it was a genuine rebellion of nazi rednecks, who are awful.
Socialism is necessary and I want a job telling everyone what to do.
Everything is the fault of white men.
"...I wouldn’t care except our entire political system is held up by the appalling ignorance [of these female Hollywood producers.] They are more ignorant than a bog dweller in Ireland in the 14th century. Which they would still be were it not for white men. And I bet even those women were smarter.
And then, of course, there is the suffering. All the women in The Morning Show [a serial drama running now on Apple TV about cutthroat TV news] are always suffering. They wake up in their $10 million penthouse with an aggrieved sigh, they have silly arguments with each other, they are always breaking down in tears, their pride is always being hurt which is a cataclysm worthy of a LOT OF SOOTHING AND PRAISE, and they feel because they are women and are smarter than men, they should run everything and because they don’t, they are miserable. They actively ACTIVELY resent the culture for their six figure salaries and palatial apartments."
"They bear zero responsibility for anything. They are all designer-clad, heavily groomed victims. The two leads, Witherspoon and Aniston, have the bodies of starved fourteen year olds with big bobble heads.
"In the first season a woman of color killed herself because she was raped by the male host. That was their big, huge, dramatic event. Oh boo hoo hoo. Look, I’ve been in that world. First day you are told who the predators are. You are told not to drink with them or go to their hotel room as the innocent, saintly associate producer of color did. She wasn’t six. She was thirty. She was fishing for preference.
"Down on the border, girlfriend, which you ignore, thousands of women of color are raped repeatedly every day. Their babies are raped in front of them, their children sold into slavery and you don’t cover it. In fact, you allow it via your ignorance."
"[MAHA reforms] have proved beyond any shadow of a doubt that Washington is absolutely committed to depopulation.
"I highly recommend Dr. Toby Rogers' work. First of all, [Washington] tried to get the retirement system on a sound basis. And when they couldn't get it on a sound basis, their only way of adjusting, when they couldn't get it on a sound financial basis, their way of adjusting is to lower life expectancy. And it's a simple formula, and it works. Social Security is financially improving as life expectancy,
all-cause mortality goes up and life expectancy drops.
"So the United States' life expectancy has diverged tremendously from the other sort of high–net–worth industrialized countries."

"The founding anti-Federalists feared [Presidential power was] precarious in the hands of a centralized, nationalized government, where “swayed by elites” they would devolve into “wars for conquest, not defense”, preferring this power devolve even further to the local and state level, enforced through the prohibition on standing armies, quartering armies in the community, and the power of arms in the hands of the people through the Militia and the Second Amendment of the Bill of Rights.
"They especially worried about the capacity of a single man in the Presidency usurping the powers of the Commander in Chief to make war without even Congressional blessing. The Federalists promised the President could never do that without Congressional pre-approval, with John Jay promising this check effectively muted the fear of abuse of executive power.
"Our founding generation abhorred emperors, despised empire, and feared any crossing of the Rubicon by a small elite or single person to ...
