Over the course of the past few decades, entertainment produced in Hollywood, news commentary written by feminized journalists, and propaganda spread by political action groups focused on protecting the environment have dealt a near death blow to masculinity via their all out demonization of guns, hunting, and manliness in general. And over the course of the past few weeks, former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin has single-handedly used her television show (Sarah Palin’s Alaska) to reverse this trend and restore manliness to its rightful place once again.
She did this first by clubbing a halibut to death after catching it in Alaskan waters, and secondly by shooting and field-dressing a caribou on a more recent episode.
Along the way, Hollywood elites, news outlets, and groups like PETA have literally come unhinged. Aaron Sorkin, who went took pains to stress that he’s involved in “film and television,” went on a profanity laced tirade against Palin for her caribou hunt. Australia’s Sydney Morning Herald bemoaned: “Most disturbing is the way [Palin] seems to enjoy causing suffering to other beings.” And the animal rights’ group Defense Of Animals, issued a statement that said: “Palin’s complete lack of compassion as demonstrated in this snuff video is disgusting.”
These handwringers certainly are an intolerant lot, aren’t they?
Fortunately, Sarah Palin’s Alaska provides lessons in handling intolerance that are just as valuable as those it provides on manliness. It does this by reminding us that it’s time for us to be intolerant for a change: that extremists who describe hunters with words like “shithead,” as Sorkin does, or insinuate that humans and animals are the same type of “beings,” or equate joy over a successful hunt with a “lack of compassion,” do not hold opinions to which we ought to acquiesce.
Instead, we should stand with Palin, who said: “I remain proudly intolerant of anti-hunting hypocrisy.”
Everyone who takes time out of their busy schedule to watch Sarah Palin’s Alaska (with an open mind) gets the double benefit of seeing manliness reborn and being reminded that we need not tolerate the incessant whining of the feminized, socialistic portions of Hollywood, journalism, and animal rights groups.
For these factions, through their relentless criticism of guns, hunting, and masculinity, have made it clear that they only tolerate that with which they agree. Therefore, it’s nice to see Palin stand up like a man and tell them to shove it.
