One thing I always want to ask these masculinity entrepreneurs is why men can’t look to women as role models, and can’t see in women models of human virtue and thriving that are worth emulating. After all, women look to men for these all the time.
Sure, Galloway is better than Peterson
But he still believes the natural order of things requires men to be supreme. Men must protect, provide and procreate. It's dressed in progressive language, but it's fundamentally a patriarchal box to trap men in

A #Roman necklace plaited gold set with sapphires & garnets, with a lovely butterfly pendant, also set with precious stones. Hard to believe this piece of jewellery is about 1800-2000 years old! 🏺 #AncientBlueSky

Should you ask the Commission what it means by "AI", I very much doubt you'd get a cogent or coherent answer. There certainly isn't one in what I have read in this document. "AI", here, is magick, a panacea, an abracadabra, a lucky charm, a proof of "relevance" (to what?). In short, bollocks.

If I ever teach a course on the Holocaust again, this is going in the lecture on Holocaust denial. Although, unlike 20th century instances of denial, I'm not too optimistic about there being anything like the Irving trial for this.

It's in the syllabus
exercise class I go to every week is mixed levels but not for beginners, a fact which is mentioned on the booking page not only several times but SOMETIMES IN ALL CAPS, and the fact that we still get beginners in at least once a month does make me worry about how closely people read things online
