Two thousand years ago, the Roman empire made a practice of throwing Christians into the arena of Rome’s Colosseum and watching them being eaten by lions. Rome’s leaders felt it important to keep the masses entertained, and what could be more entertaining to those common folk than watching humans being devoured by big cats?
This week in Paris, just 700 miles from Rome, the Olympics games became the modern version of those Roman spectacles by throwing female boxers into the ring to be beaten to a pulp by dudes, one from Taiwan, and another from Algeria, a Muslim nation that sanctions the beating of wives and subjugation of women as matters of law
Both of these mediocre men have been boxing fellow men for years; both had been disqualified last year by the World Boxing Council from competing with real women after undergoing genetics tests. Yet, the international Olympics Committee, in its zeal to signal its woke virtues, chose to allow these men to beat up women as a means of signaling to real women all over the world that they are helpless and will be subjugated from now on.
How better to entertain the masses, after all?
To all you women out there reading this: This is not a problem that can be solved by men. It is a problem only you and real women athletes can solve.
The only way this forced communist march to erasure of women and protections for them from the laws and customs of our societies will end is when every real woman scheduled to compete in events like the Olympics boycotts those events en masse. And make no doubt about this: That is what is happening in our society today, as evidenced by Thursday’s finalization of the Biden/Harris’s revision of Title IX to define “sex” as “gender identity.”
It is not enough for this real woman boxer yesterday to quit 46 seconds into the boxing match, truthfully shouting “this is not just!” It is not enough for one-off brave heroes like American swimmer Riley Gaines to sacrifice her personal goals by refusing to participate in such farces.
This madness will only come to an end when free women of the Western world rise up as one voice and refuse to participate in it and be victims of it.
The Western world is in the midst of a soft communist revolution right now, a revolution that is fairly well advanced already. That’s what wokeness and transgender ideology are all about.
The forcing of common people to accept and parrot rank absurdities like “men can have babies” and “a man who identifies as a woman is a real woman” has always been a hallmark of every communist revolution throughout history. Because, if a people can be forced to abandon all common sense and pretend that such demonic absurdities are the truth, they can be force-marched to give up every freedom they possess.
What the Olympics organizers have done this past week with the demonic opening ceremonies and the spectacles of men beating up women in the boxing ring is to poke all of us in our collective eye and tell us there is nothing we can do to stop this communist revolution from progressing to its logical conclusion.
But women can stop this particular bit of madness by standing astride this insane march of history and shout, with a single, unified voice:
“STOP!”
That is all.
David, I always enjoy your energy articles. Also on politics. This one nail’s it with the insanity of the Democrat’s policies on women in sports. One additional “Absurdity” if I can borrow your word, a very high percentage of women vote Democrat because of a “Women’s Right to Choose” abortion. I have seen polls of up to 80% abortion being the largest single issue of suburban women. The absurdity is, most of them can afford and use the pill? So why trash our country for the right to murder babies on the scale of Stalin, Hitler and Pol Pot? I think there were 60+million abortions since Roe wade. Keep up your great work

Exactly. Until women stop participating it will never end.
I was never a fan of women boxing to begin with, seeing women’s faces bloodied and bruised is disturbing.
