Overlooked is a series of obituaries about remarkable people whose deaths, beginning in 1851, went unreported in The Times. This month we’re adding the stories of important L.G.B.T.Q. figures.
On June 3, 1968, Valerie Solanas walked into Andy Warhol’s studio, the Factory, with a gun and a plan to enact vengeance. What happened next came to define her life and legacy: She fired at Warhol, nearly killing him. The incident reduced her to a tabloid headline, but also drew attention to her writing, which is still read in some women and gender studies courses today.
Solanas was a radical feminist (though she would say she loathed most feminists), a pioneering queer theorist (at least according to some) and the author of “SCUM Manifesto,” in which she argued for the wholesale extermination of men.
The manifesto, self-published in 1967, reads as satire, though Solanas defended it as serious. Its opening line is at once absurd and a call to arms for the coalition she was forming, the Society for Cutting Up Men:
...
Over time, Solanas became convinced that Warhol and Girodias were conspiring to suppress, censor or steal her voice.
On that day in June, when she walked into Warhol’s studio, newly located at 33 Union Square West, Warhol wasn’t there. Solanas left and returned several times, until she spotted him on the sidewalk. Together they rode the building’s elevator up to the sixth floor.
Soon, there were gunshots. Warhol was taken to Columbus Hospital. Solanas’s bullets had punctured his stomach, liver, spleen, esophagus and lungs. At one point, the doctors pronounced him dead. (He would live for 19 more years, wearing a surgical corset to support his abdomen.)

NYT is just one of many enemies
She sounds like the female equivalent of the male serial killers who chop up women.
Wonder if the NYT will celebrate Ed Geen or Ted Bundy or iOS this usual sick standard
“ is this”
"'When I see a pretty girl walking down the street I think two things. One part of me wants to take her out and talk to her and be real nice and sweet and treat her right.'"
"What does the other part of him think?"
"What her head would look like on a stick”
Maybe it is better than celebrating the mass murder of innocent people...
The extermination of men, of course, would quickly lead to the extermination of the entire human race. Women don't spontaneously get pregnant.
The NYT is feeling the effects of the Marxist millennials in their newsroom. I know people here will laugh and say, “What else is new?”, but the paper used to be your standard American newspaper mix of left-leaning reporting and deep state propaganda. This new crowd is pushing for a radical revolution.
When you meet a woman who accuses all the men in her life of being abusive, RUN.
It might be that she’s had incredibly bad luck, but more likely she’s batshit crazy.
The nyt chooses to deify a man-hating attempted murderer who promoted killing men. The nyt is a filthy rag that deserves a visit by muzzies waving issues of Charlie Hebdo.
If a woman who accuses all the men in her life of being abusive—and then she says she likes you—_you_ need to visit a shrink—before _you_ hurt someone. :-)
The New York Times has been an enemy propaganda outlet for decades.
They have just come out of the closet now.
Nor do the streets for these princesses spontaneously pave themselves with asphalt
Thank you for the Wiki link. To me, the pertinent sentence there was “Her mother burned all her belongings posthumously.” Thus denying the world the final thoughts of a psychotic murderer (she tried to kill 3 people)! Still an apparent hero to some ... unreal!
She’s pure evil. To think the millions of young women who have brainwashed by her vapid lies.
Yet another leftist “whack-job”. I am surprised that the DIMs/LIBs/leftists didn’t elect her to some significant office. Maybe she is being considered for demented joe’s running mate??? The DIMs seem to have gone BEYOND full retard...if that is possible. LOL. More popcorn!
The New York Times is in the business of pimping how to hate all things that are normal.
It’s why the love the left so much.
