Every day brings further evidence that contemporary liberals have lost their minds.<\/span><\/p>\n

A yoga class has been cancelled<\/a> at the University of Ottawa on the ground that participants are complicit in 'oppression' and 'cultural genocide.'  By the way, we are talking about hatha<\/em> yoga here which is essentially just stretching.<\/span><\/p>\n

So you might think that re-labelling the course 'Stretching' would solve the problem.  But no!<\/span><\/p>\n

This is a good place to observe that stretching is an essential ingredient in a balanced physical fitness program along with aerobic exercise (walking, hiking, running, biking, etc.), anaerobic  work (weight-lifting), and activities that maintain good hand-eye coordination (tennis, pickleball, etc.)  The Maverick recommends a four-pronged approach. <\/span><\/p>\n

Why is Canada such a Pee Cee place?  I should think that with all that rugged country up there, those vast empty expanses, and the  ass-freezing temperatures a tougher breed of cat would live there and not a bunch of pc-whipped pussies.<\/span><\/p>\n

Another 'interesting' development is the assault on free speech.  According to Pew Research<\/a>, 40% of millennials think it acceptable to limit speech offensive to minorities.<\/span><\/p>\n

Trouble is, almost anything will be found offensive by the members of some minority or other.  Some  blacks have shown themselves to be absurdly sensitive to the slights they imagine embedded in such words and phrases as 'niggardly,' 'denigrate,' 'black hole,' and 'watermelon.'  <\/span><\/p>\n

Some take offense<\/a> at 'chink in the armor.'  But if 'chink in the armor' is about Asians, then the Asians in question would have to be rather tiny to hang out interstitially in, say, a coat of mail.<\/span><\/p>\n

Why not take offense at 'chunk'?  Someone might get it into his Pee Cee head that a chunk is a fat chink.<\/span><\/p>\n

There is no end to this madness once it gets going, which is why we sane and decent people need to mock and deride liberals every chance we get.  Mockery and derision can achieve what calm reasoning cannot. <\/span><\/p>\n

One cannot reason with those who are permanently in a state of self-colonoscopy.<\/span><\/p>\n

Finally, this outrage<\/a> at Mizzou against Thomas Jefferson.
