Let's imagine it is 2015 already and two people are looking for work.
Matt Taylor updates his resume' to include "Part of team that landed a robotic spacecraft on a comet."
Rose Eveleth updates her resume' to include "Drove a rocket scientist to tearfully apologize on TV because I didn't like his shirt."
Say, does everyone--not just feminists--get to play that game? With Ms. Eveleth's attire, perhaps?
I'm tempted to agree that this whole episode reflects on the evolution of modern feminism to being "appalling stupidity backed by hysterical rage."
But that would be wrong. I think it is the opposite: hysterical rage backed by appalling stupidity.
Who isn't in support of women's equality under the law this side of ISIL-occupied Syria? But that was old feminism.
Now we have modern feminism that takes nonsensical stands that make them function as the Women's Auxiliary of the Democratic Party while ignoring actual wars on women lest it benefit Republicans.
