Margaret Atwood has turned Victimology into an Art Form; Performance Art, to be exact.

Did you bother to read the article or did you just assume anything Atwood wrote would not be relevant. It is not pushing victimhood to state that procedures that protect the rights of an accused person are fundamental in a free society. Which is her basic argument regarding how UBC acted.

Her opus “A Handmaid’s Tale” is the embodiment of the liberal statement “tyranny will come wrapped in an American flag and carrying a Bible”. It was written out of irrational liberal fears that the conservative movement would morph into an American Taliban.

She was right in predicting the future but wrong on the religion. But liberals ignore the influence of Islam in the Taliban, ISIS and Boko Haram that created that world she predicted.

Her sin today is saying ‘let’s have the information on the accusations and evidence’ instead of “he’s accused, he’s guilty, lynch him”.

The day I find myself agreeing with Margaret Atwood on ANYTHING is the day the control-left is truly too extreme.
