Horowitz: Courts enshrine castration as a de facto human right - TheBlaze
Horowitz: Courts enshrine castration as a de facto human right - TheBlaze:
We’ve learned a lot of uncanny principles about human rights over the past few years. We’ve learned that any private institution, including those involved in health care delivery, can force you to take action against your own body and breathing holes in order to obtain medical care. We’ve learned that the Americans with Disabilities Act doesn’t matter when denying rape victims the right to enter a doctor’s office without a mask. We’ve learned that one could deny employment, public accommodation, and even lifesaving care to anyone who doesn’t opt for Pfizer’s magic juice. Human rights all but disappeared. Now the courts have suddenly rediscovered them when it comes to those who desire “medical care” for gender dysphoria, aka castration.

Warning: This newsletter will will hit sacred cows from ALL political tribes when needed.
- This post starts by mapping Covid around the world.
- First, in a “naive” way, taking official data — and then in a smarter way, using “excess mortality”, which also allows us to estimate a “fudge factor” for every country’s Covid data.
- Then I draw lessons from the maps — what they say about vaccines, travel bans, lockdowns, and future pandemic responses...

Physics professor: Refusing to wear a face mask is a ‘manifestation of ableism and racism’
"Despite Northern Illinois University being “mask optional” this fall semester, one of its physics professors is mandating that anyone attending his classes must wear a face mask.
According to the Young America’s Foundation’s New Guard, Jahred Adelman noted on his syllabus (pictured) that refusal to wear a mask is a “manifestation of ableism and racism.”
- “Why do we wear masks? (The pandemic is not over)” the syllabus headline reads. Besides being ableist and racist, the syllabus notes “refusing to wear a mask indoors is […] an exercise of individual privilege that tells the most vulnerable that their health and the health of their loved ones does [sic] not matter.”...

In Praise of ‘Garbagemen’
"...That was the day I gained an undying appreciation for firefighters – and sanitation workers.
We don’t fully value the work of “garbagemen” until we have to live without their services.
Considering that urban civilization would degenerate into chaos and disease without their labor, society is shockingly unappreciative of the men and women who maintain our system of sanitation disposal.
Considering that urban civilization would degenerate into chaos and disease without their labor, society is shockingly unappreciative of the men and women who maintain our system of sanitation disposal.
It’s not surprising, then, that few people are eager for such a career considering the work is thankless, dirty, and dangerous.
Indeed, astonishingly dangerous: Sanitation workers have twice the fatality rates of police offers, and nearly seven times the fatality rates of firefighters..."
