‘Misogyny’! If You RT This, Will @CCriadoPerez Report Your Account?

Probably not, but you never know, and while I generally have zero sympathy for Anonymous, this news is rather troubling: More than 30 Anonymous-related Twitter accounts, including @Anon_Central, one of the largest with over 150,000 followers, have been suspended by Twitter following a campaign of misogynist abuse aimed at feminist campaigners on the social network.

Women: Is It Possible You’re Entirely Too Self-Conscious and Judgmental?

Julie Eckert has written an article for Verily magazine called “The Care and Keeping of Online Personas” which is interesting in what it unwittingly conveys about the female worldview, namely their innate concern about courtesy, relationships and “popularity.” This girlish concern for social status is something I’ve noticed since I was in elementary school.

‘Teacher of the Year’ Learns a Tough Lesson: Always Take the Plea Bargain

Now @MikeElk Calls @betsyscribeindc a ‘Racist,’ Because … Journalism!

My apology for treating you to more of this kook’s kookiness, but these nutjobs just fascinate me. Mike Elk responded to Betsy Rothstein’s Monday article with a series of typically bizarre e-mails: [C]riticize him at your own peril — he’ll charge that you’re against people with conditions like Asperger’s and write your boss and insist […]

Taxpayers Lose $10.5 Billion on UAW Bailout; Does @DavidCookTFP Care?

Before we talk about @DavidCookTFP — a liberal columnist for the Chattanooga Times Free Press — let’s talk about Detroit, the city driven into bankruptcy by Democrats and organized labor.
