"They have demonized and brutalized immigrants from certain countries. Now they are attempting to take over cities with large Black populations in the name of law and order.
This will result in a very small group of wealthy people—mostly white, mostly male, mostly Christian nationalist—imposing minority rule on the majority who disagree with their leadership and policies."

"For Wilson, Hegseth represents a unique chance to spread his extreme ideology. Some at his church oppose female suffrage; his denomination is against women in combat, homosexuality, abortion, and pushes for an extremely traditional interpretation of family structure."

"For the second time in eight months of his presidency, Donald Trump has deployed federal military force to subdue a city with a large Black population currently led by a Black woman."

"This is about projecting power. Trump has long disparaged cities with large Black populations and Black leadership. New York, D.C., Baltimore, Oakland, and Los Angeles are all cities with large Black populations who are run by Black Democrats. The front-runner to be the new mayor of New York is a Muslim Democratic socialist."

"The two cities Trump targeted already with federal troops—Los Angeles and Washington D.C.—both have Black female mayors. That is no coincidence. And the other three he mentioned by name during his presser—New York, Baltimore and Oakland—also have Black mayors. Trump’s fake claims of high crime rates simply cannot be separated from his naked racism."

"And once that theology is embedded in law, it affects everyone — not just the people in the pews.
That’s why it matters who and what we platform in our churches."

"In the end, Wilson, this political regime, and its supporters want the United States to look a lot like the antebellum South. ...
What we see in Douglas Wilson’s theology today will become someone’s policy tomorrow.
If a church teaches hierarchy, exclusion, and authoritarian control, it will eventually shape a politics that enforces those same values."

Tisby writes,
"If we had paid attention to [Douglas] Wilson and the spread of his ideology, we could have foreseen the Trump regime coming.
What happens in politics is downstream of what happens in the church. …
They want to strip women of bodily autonomy. They have recently challenged marriage equality. They are under orders to gerrymander districts to guarantee Republican wins."

Dr. Jemar Tisby, a Black scholar of religion, has important things to say about Douglas Wilson, the right-wing Reformed minister whose patriarchal ideas (women should not be allowed to vote, gay people should be criminalized) Pete Hegseth is now shopping around. Jemar has himself been personally targeted by Wilson.

WNBA Incidents Expose Misogyny in Sports Culture
As a coach, an uncle, and a son, I believe we must speak out against the normalization of misogyny. This is bigger than sports—it’s about the dignity and humanity of every woman.
Silence teaches the next generation that power means domination.

Meanwhile, Pete Hegseth, the US Secretary of Defense, makes a post promoting views that the right of women to vote should be repealed, voting should happen "as a household", with women deferring to their husbands
This seems like an opportune time to say if any women are thinking about a divorce they should do it now, while they still can.
And if you're not married yet? Don't. You will be property, not a person with rights.

So, because Google AI had started to parrot tervish talking points about women's sportsball, I had to ask Jeeves to yahoo the altavistas harder, and found this interesting 1920 story titled How the FA banned women’s football in 1921 and tried to justify it:
The money raised that day was the equivalent of about £140,000 today. This focused the minds of those watching the Dick, Kerr Ladies and other women’s teams with mistrust and trepidation. It would be this hugely successful match that would trigger the devastation of the women’s game.
The FA and the political establishment were not blind to the growing popularity and success of women’s football. The huge sums of money being raised were outside their jurisdiction and control. Worse still, that money was no longer being raised to support the war wounded but was being channelled into political and working-class causes – causes antithetical to the establishment.
So, one year after more than 53,000 spectators turned out to watch at Goodison Park, the FA voted to ban women’s football. The sport’s governing body did not have the power to ban women from playing outright – that was impossible, so instead they ruled that women’s games were barred from FA-affiliated football grounds. The ban was to last for 51 years.
The FA’s Consultative Committee’s ruling stated:
“Complaints having been made as to football being played by women, Council felt impelled to express the strong opinion that the game of football is quite unsuitable for females and should not be encouraged. Complaints have also been made as to the conditions under which some of the matches have been arranged and played, and the appropriation of receipts to other than charitable objects. The Council are further of the opinion that an excessive proportion of the receipts are absorbed in expenses and an inadequate percentage devoted to charitable objects.
“For these reasons the Council requests the Clubs belonging to the Association refuse the use of their grounds for such matches.”
