Guns and Vaginas
One of the more irritating self-congratulatory and triumphal progressive memes doing the rounds on Facebook lately is a picture of (I think) Rachel Maddow, with a quote beneath her saying (it varies a bit in the retelling) “New Rule: If you don’t have a vagina, you don’t get to make laws regulating them”.Imagine substituting “gun” (or even “car”) for “vagina” and see where we get…. The trouble is, so many of the people addicted to this sort of self-stroking, self-satisfied and ultimately self-defeating stuff just don’t have that imagination. They’re in the Bubble, and all that matters is what confirms their prejudices or their sense of themselves as special or perceptive.
