Here is a hot take, all religion is anti-feminist and practitioners should be persecuted and if necessary, destroyed.

He's referring to the rise of "illiberal democracy" but you basically can't have liberalism without democracy

A liberal society depends on a wide observance of individual freedoms and the reinforcement of bourgeois dictatorship. democracy is just a post hoc ratification.

get that OUT of my face posted:google searching this led me to the gawker spinoff site "Very Smart Brothas." don't flatter yourself it's not so much a Gawker spinoff as a The Root spinoff and honestly I'd argue that The Root is somehow worse, like they repeatedly misgendered Scout Schulz and mocked their death because "another Becky died and the tragically melanin deficient had to go and cry about it"

i think we're about to carve a hole through the thick veil that covers the metaphors. maybe the hirsute tanned people with scimitars who live a nomadic lifestyle are analogous to arabs or perhaps bedouins

The First Men fought a war with the native species to displace them until they had to defeat the Night King together and made a deal. They later got followed up by the Andals and whoever the Dornish were until the original natives are practically wiped out.
