    The flow of feminist logorhhea continues to grow. Suppose that someday, the epithet will become “Cisheteronormative Xiancapitalist Eurokyriarchy.” What if you embraced it, and decided to pitch it to the kids instead of fighting it?

    “Because you should never settle for a lesser evil.”

    “You’ve tried the rest; now come back to the best!”

    “Effective organization is like herding cats, and no one else is better. No one.”
