The tyranny of the minority...

Oberlin College Head Women’s Lacrosse Coach Subjected to Disciplinary Hearings for Defending Women’s Sports

As part of its female athlete storytelling series, Independent Women’s Forum (IWF) broke the story of Kim Russell, the Head Women’s Lacrosse Coach at Oberlin College, in an exclusive documentary that exposes Oberlin administrators and athletic department executive staff ridiculing and reprimanding her for sharing a social media post in support of women’s sports and female athletes. Russell describes the experience as being “burned at the stake.”

To tell her story, Russell sought out Independent Women’s Forum, which has been at the forefront of the fight to save women’s sports and counter the radical agenda that seeks to erase women. In breaking her silence, Russell shared secret audio recordings from meetings with Oberlin staff and members of her own team who demeaned and barraged her simply for her opinion — one that she shares with nearly 70% of Americans — that men shouldn’t participate in women’s sports.

It is almost incomprehensible how much power this significant minority yields. People obviously understand instinctively that their views (such as opposing 6'4" people with penises competing against women in sports) are well within the mainstream and well withing the boundaries of common sense. But this majority often finds themselves wanting to "hide" their majority believes due to fear of what this minority will do to them.

Ironically this minority should really hold almost no power over the majority (and over common sense) but these woke liberals have weaseled their way into positions of power in education, government, media, and entertainment. Because our teachers, many or our politicians, much of the media, and most of what we watch on television or movies is guided by these minority beliefs, it seems as though the majority is the minority and visa versa.

In the 80s we had something called the Reagan or the Gingrich revolution (depending on your view at the time) in which conservative swept both houses of Congress after taking back the Presidency. The people who swept them into power called themselves the Silent Majority. They eventually became the "moral majority" and lost their majority status, but as the silent majority, they welded a large bloc of voters. I see something similar here brewing in 2023, as this tyrannical minority keeps pushing and prodding that majority over and over. Instead of cowering, eventually the 70% will fight back in full force and with full vengeance.

Many of these woke movements are losing steam in other places in the world. Common sense has seen many countries and international sports push back on trans athletes competing across genders as well as pushing back on things like gender affirming care for children. Meanwhile the United States just continues to double down. They do so at their own peril.
