I guess that they have too much university education to know that “man” comes from the German and means “person/human being.” Its use to mean “male” is only from the 11th century. Nevertheless, the original generic meaning remains with the specific male meaning.
To: Red Badger
Well, there are certainly no males in Berkeley to object.

There are so many they’d be at it for decades and still be the hypocrites they are; they show their stupidity every time they either say or do something. They’re a laughingstock for the rest of the country.

Absolutely not. They’ll only be allowed to celebrate the contributions made by xx-persons and those individuals of color that had involvement in what some call the “moon landing”. The white male patriarchy must not be allowed credit for anything of value, nor any non-negative recognition of any kind.
It’s pretty frightening how far afield the leftists freaks have gone. Even worse, that we know they plan to go further. Buckle up.

This story would appear to be unmanagable. The left is just manufacturing issues to manipulate conservatives and manifest in mandatory maneuvers to mangled things too many to even mention.
