On Friday’s broadcast of HBO’s “Real Time,” CNN Political Commentator and former Obama administration official Van Jones argued that obsessing over pronouns and the gender binary sends the message that people on the left “are not concerned about things that are affecting me every day. They’re not concerned about inflation,” and “when we start sending the cultural signal that we’re more concerned about the pronoun you put on your Zoom call than we are concerned about the fact that you don’t have a house or a job,” there’s a problem of balance.
While discussing The Atlantic’s piece “ Separating Sports by Sex Doesn’t Make Sense ” Jones said, “I do think that this issue around the gender binary has taken up way too much space in the public conversation. I think that people are weary of it. I think that people having to put the…this and that and the pronouns on their Zoom, all of that stuff starts to send a signal, I think, to working-class voters that these people are not concerned about things that are affecting me every day. They’re not concerned about inflation, they’re not concerned about — which is not to say you can’t care about everybody, but there’s something that’s out of balance. And so, I think that when we start sending the cultural signal that we’re more concerned about the pronoun you put on your Zoom call than we are concerned about the fact that you don’t have a house or a job, I think the party is off track.”
He added, “I understand how people can sometimes feel that they are being left behind, they’re being left out, they’ve been sold down the river by both parties. And I think the Democrats miss opportunity after opportunity to tell people we get that and we […]
They’re Trying to Shut Us Down
Over the last several months, I’ve lost count of how many times the powers-that-be have tried to shut us down. They’ve sent hackers at us, forcing us to take extreme measures on web security. They sent attorneys after us, but thankfully we’re not easily intimidated by baseless accusations or threats. They’ve even gone so far as to make physical threats. Those can actually be a bit worrisome but Remington has me covered.
For us to continue to deliver the truth that Americans need to read and hear, we ask you, our amazing audience, for financial assistance. We have a Giving Fuel page to help us pay the bills. It’s brand new so don’t be discouraged by the lack of donations there. It’s a funny reality that the fewer the donations that have been made, the less likely people are willing to donate to it. One would think this is counterintuitive, but sometimes people are skeptical because they think that perhaps there’s a reason others haven’t been donating. In our situation, we’re just getting started so please don’t be shy if you have the means to help.
Thank you and God bless!
