Fear And Loathing In SLC: How A Social Justice Mob Got To Brandon Sanderson
Vague accusations of harassment. The media dials in on it like white on rice, escalating the sound of the severity with each article even though they’re only sourcing themselves.

But Why Do You Defend THAT Person? Aren’t You Angry About How They…
This is a follow up to my viral blog about our movement, from last week. We’re at war. There is a side that’s in lockstep. They don’t care how offensive any of them treat us. They don’t care how crazy they go in the defense of the cause. They are the Borg. They’ve made whole […]

Supporting Faith Goldy – I Disassociate With Censoring Site Patreon
I just finished up my periscope announcing this, but I am horrified at the shocking treatment of Faith Goldy by the crowdfunding website, Patreon. Patreon has banned other journalists in the past, but this time it’s a flagrant political move to silence independent journalists and content creators who won’t go along with the establishment media. […]
Announcement: Rally For Freedom And Anti-Discrimination Demonstration At Worldcon 76 San Jose
Civil rights activist Erin Sith, trans for Trump, and I talked about this briefly on our livestream last Thursday.
