The Other McCain

"One should either write ruthlessly what one believes to be the truth, or else shut up." — Arthur Koestler

Dehumanizing Sex

A basic error at the core of the gay-rights crusade in recent years is what I call the Desire Is Destiny Fallacy, wherein all sexual desires are self-legitimizing — a human right — and any opposition to or criticism of anyone’s desire is an infringement of their personal autonomy. We are told that everyone is […]

The Sorelian Myth of Matthew Shepard: Petty Criminals and Liberal Media Bias

Matthew Shepard’s killers Russell Henderson (left) and Aaron McKinney (right). When I was a freshman in college, Truman Capote’s In Cold Blood was an assigned reading and one of the lessons of the book — perhaps not a lesson the author intended, but one I’ve since seen replicated over and over — is how notorious […]

‘The Dissemination of Hate Speech’

Arkansas Tech University Professor Wayne Helmer wrote a letter to Prism, the magazine of the American Society for Engineering Education, criticizing the inclusion of sexual orientation in “diversity” programs, calling homosexuality a “detrimental, negative lifestyle,” and using scripture to invoke the authority of Jesus Christ. All hell broke loose, of course: The letter prompted the association’s president (Kenneth F. […]

Courage, Alessandra: ‘Let Us Determine to Die Here, and We Will Conquer!’

It’s weird how tunnel-vision can limit our knowledge of the online world. There are vast swaths of the Internet I’ve never seen. Today I noticed an inbound link from “Reflections by Alessandra,” who praised as “beautiful . . . must read” something I’d written. Alessandra’s blog seems to have an almost monomaniacal focus on fighting […]

An American Crisis: Fat Lesbians

Why are lesbians fat? Or, why are fat women lesbians? Is correlation causation? This profound scientific mystery demands an answer, and you can’t have science without a federal research grant: The federal government has spent $2.2 million studying why three quarters of lesbians are obese despite sequestration-mandated budget cuts that critics warned could “delay progress […]

Lubricating the Slippery Slope: The Intellectual Astroglide of the Elite

U.S. Supreme Court Chief Justice Warren Burger: HATER! pic.twitter.com/WBLQHSxINS | @wgstweets @blnd_n_dngrus @DBT816 — Robert Stacy McCain (@rsmccain) August 31, 2013 Few are willing to admit the truth, namely that our cultural elite have abandoned the truth — but that is putting it too mildly. Our cultural elite, of which the editors of the Washington […]

States’ Rights: OK for Dopeheads; Hateful Hillbilly Bible-Thumpers, Not So Much

A headline that included the word “butt-f*ckers” — without the asterisk — crossed my mind here. However, because Ace of Spades is on a tear against the deliberate troll-baiting at Slate, I passed it up. Anyway, the re-election of President Obama meant that the gay agenda would be imposed top-down by executive authority, and the Internal […]
