Here is an article in MarketWatch by Paul B. Farrell that starts with some predictions for the 2010s decade, then devolves into irrational male bashing. Excerpt (page 2):
'2020. America’s first woman president, patriarchal dominance is dead
By the end of the decade, it is finally obvious that patriarchy — male dominance of leadership roles in philosophy, economics, politics and culture throughout history — has failed our civilization, bringing the world to the brink of total destruction.
Why do male leaders consistently fail us? Jeremy Grantham brilliantly captured that fundamental flaw in our nation’s character a few years ago: Male leaders are actually quite emotional, myopic and “impatient ... management types who focus on what they are doing this quarter or this annual budget.” But true leadership “requires more people with a historical perspective who are more thoughtful and more right-brained.”
Unfortunately, “we end up with an army of left-brained immediate doers.” And that guarantees “every time we get an outlying, obscure event that has never happened before in history, they are always to miss it.”
Worse, today’s male brain is so rigidly hard-wired in short-term myopia, it quickly forgets history’s most recent lessons, like 2008. As a result, our males leaders “collectively miss even totally obvious events that happen over and over in history.”
Class war? Or Gender War? By 2020 we’ll have an answer, but by then it may be too late.'
I mean, just wow, the guy totally disgusts me with the stupid smug grin in his photo and the asinine male-bashing end to his article.
