Amy and Barbara, You've Got the Power - Do You Have the Integrity?

Regarding the new crisis manufactured by our malevolent mischief-making President over replacing Justice Ginsburg, and his lie this morning that Ginsburg didn't dictate her dying wish to her granddaughter: We're all treating the likely nominees, Amy Coney Barrett and Barbara Lagoa, as silent puppets with no will of their own. It is being assumed that they will mindlessly accept the nomination if offered. Out of respect for a great woman justice and out of self-respect, I as a feminist expect them both to decline to become Trump pawns and to decline the nomination if offered before the election. This is why feminism has brought them to this crucial point in American history, made sure they could get into law school, and fought so they could practice law and rise to their high stations. They now have the opportunity to cut through the male power-maneuvers, amorality and lies and to demonstrate what real judicial integrity is, acting for the good of the country. I hope they sp...

Engels' Fertile Paragraph

Friedrich Engels' remarkable essay, "The Origin of the Family, Private Property, and the State" (1884) discussed in the article by Ariana Diaz in Left Voice which I'm re-posting below, is to me the pivot upon which feminism and Marxism find a balance. Engels' paragraph setting forth the two basic motivations of human beings, upon which human culture in its entirety is built, was such a discovery for me. It explains why Marxism is both a powerful method of analysis of women's situation, and at the same time why Marxism itself has not sufficiently addressed women's situation (because Marx, culturally-bound to the misogyny of his century, applied his theory almost entirely to the "production" side, paying little attention to social reproduction). When the theories of historical materialism and sexual selection are glimpsed together, as combined in one compressed, remarkable paragraph in the essay, the ultimate origin of male domination in human his...

The Limits of Textualism In the US Supreme Court's Bostock Decision

I'm becoming a fan of Pulitzer Prize winner Linda Greenhouse, a contributing opinion writer for the New York Times. The June 15 Bostock Opinion  written by Justice Neil Gorsuch shocked me for many reasons she touches on in the article below, which I'm pulling from its paywall and posting below. I agree especially with her assessment that Justice Gorsuch was more interested in self-aggrandizement than ideology of left or right; that "textualism" or "originalism" as a method of statutory construction is a sad diminishment of real judging and that the method allows for almost any decision to be made in any case. Neil Gorsuch decided the three associated cases, involving matters of huge moment for a large percentage of the American population, based on parsing the meaning of "because of sex" in the language of Title VII. He decided that phrase means "because of sex or anything necessarily related to sex", including the will o' the wisp...
