5 a.m.: I wake up at the crack of dawn and shoot myself up with a cocktail of hormones.

7 a.m.: Now that I’m roided up, I log onto Facebook and cyberbully women by telling them I’m going to beat them at all their sports today.

7:20 a.m.: From my liberal woke closet, I pull out an outfit that is nefarious and confusing, and promotes my radical belief in the existence of more than two genders: jeans, a compression top, and a floral short-sleeve button-up shirt.

8 a.m.: I arrive at work wearing the single most charged clothing accessory ever created: My THEY/THEM pronoun pin. I love shoving my gender agenda in everyone’s face.

8:30 a.m.: In our morning team meeting, I bully my colleagues by politely correcting them on my pronouns.

12:00 p.m.: I schedule my weekly top surgery because I hate women.

So fuckin’ like, in those dahk medieval times, the Vikings were goin’ bonkahs all ovah the fuckin’ place n’ both men n’ women thought it was wicked awesome tah wield weapons. N’ I guess that isn’t exactly too fuckin’ new; it’s just that we had a multi-centuhry chunk’ah time between then n’ now in which it was really fuckin’ frowned upon in the womens’ case. But it’s impohrtant tah remembah that we’re talkin’ ’bout spee’ahs, swohrds, n’ axes—shit like that. Not semi-automatics ah explosive fuckin’ ohrdinances. The Vikings nevah cahred fahr that shit n’ they still don’t, even if the eastuhrn trade routes kindah fuckin’ backfi’ahd on ’em n’ now Stockholm’s got violence tah rival that’ah Chicago ah LA.

A fusion of polemic, anecdote, and theory, Ash Sarkar’s Minority Rule — her first published book — is a journey through the perilous frontierland of identity politics. Originally used as a way of conceptualising the oppression of individuals by way of race, gender, and sexuality, the identitarian creed has since been removed from its anti-capitalist roots, […]

This is the second part of the discussion on Tariffs that I started in – Tariffs and more – Part 1 (March 13, 2025). In the first part I considered some of the historical motivations including the infant industry argument. Today, I plan to expand on that discussion and add further considerations that might help…

Some years ago, I faced up to the futility of reporting true things about America’s disastrous wars and so I left Afghanistan for another remote mountainous country far away. It was the polar opposite of Afghanistan: a peaceful, prosperous land where nearly everybody seemed to enjoy a good life, on the job and in the family. It’s true that they didn’t work much, not by American standards anyway. In the U.S., full-time salaried workers supposedly laboring 40 hours a week actually average 49, with almost 20% clocking more than 60. These people, on the other hand, worked only about 37 hours a week, when they weren’t away on long paid vacations. At the end of the work day, about four in the afternoon (perhaps three in...
