The depraved leftist overclass that rules America
The following is by James Hickman of schiffsovereign.com:

In the year 1429 during the reign of King Sejong the Great in modern day Korea, the royal government took the advice of its Chinese-trained scholars and set up gender-separated medical saunas, known as hanjeungmak.
The saunas were fed by nearby hot springs and often maintained by Buddhist monks; in this way they were viewed as almost sacred… and certainly healing. The heat was believed to promote circulation, detoxification, and overall health, plus the social gathering in the saunas reinforced relationships within the community.
But, again, medieval Koreans had modest values. And for that reason, they separated men and women in different saunas. That wasn’t a new idea either; many civilizations, going back to the Roman baths, or thermae, separated genders when nudity was involved.
This should hardly be a controversial topic even today. But leave it to angry Leftists to turn public nudity into a human rights case.
Olympus Spa in Washington state is a traditional Korean sauna; as such, it is for women only– and many patrons bring their minor-age daughters along.
Per the Korean tradition, the women are typically nude. And the owners– Koreans themselves who happen to be devout Christians– believe that grown men shouldn’t be naked in a public place in front of women and girls.
You can just smell the Left’s disdain for such basic social norms. And sure enough, a few years ago, a grown adult, nonbinary transgender queer “AMAB” (assigned male at birth) named Haven Wilvich sought entry to the spa.
The spa denied entry, and Wilvich then filed a complaint with the state Human Rights Commission.
Think about that again. We’re not talking about some form of modern slavery. Or warlords holding children at gunpoint. Or China’s internment of its Uyghur population. Or the Taliban’s brutal suppression of women’s rights.
Nor are we talking about Wilvich being denied a critical need, like admission to a hospital for emergency care.
This was quite simply a biological man demanding to access to nude female children. And the state HUMAN RIGHTS COMMISSION jumped all over it like they were saving the world from genocide.
After being forced to change their gender policy, the spa’s owners, Myoon and Sun Lee (joined with some anonymous ‘Jane Doe’ female customers) filed a lawsuit against the Human Rights Council.
The Lees alleged that their own rights, including their First Amendment religious freedom, had been violated by the heavy hand of the state.
But the Court found such allegations preposterous and dismissed the case. The judge made it very clear– the only rights being violated were the nonbinary transgender queer AMAB’s rights. Everyone else’s rights are irrelevant and should be trampled upon in the name of social justice.
The Lees then requested an appeal to the US Ninth Circuit, where a judicial panel refused to even hear the case. The Lees petitioned again for a re-hearing at the Ninth Circuit, and that request was rejected late last week.
I read the 105-page opinion over the weekend; it’s hard to not be disgusted given how the judges justified rejecting the Lees’ appeal… based on procedural technicalities
The majority claimed, for example, that the spa owners “did not challenge [the definitions] or the language” of Washington’s anti-discrimination law (known as WLAD), nor did they sufficiently “argue that the statute was vague” or that “the HRC’s [Human Rights Commission] related policies” were inappropriate.
Unbelievable. A grown adult wants to walk around naked in front of children, and the Ninth Circuit is busy debating legal definitions and policy memos.
One of the few dissenters was Lawrence VanDyke, a Trump-appointed federal judge who wrote bluntly in his opinion:
“This is a case about swinging dicks. The Christian owners of Olympus Spa— a traditional Korean, women-only, nude spa—understandably don’t want them in their spa. Their female employees and female clients don’t want them in their spa either. But Washington State insists on them. And now so does the Ninth Circuit.”
Most of the other justices, along with the legacy media, pounced all over VanDyke for his foul language. Unsurprisingly they were far more offended by his potty mouth than by the men who want to parade their genitals in front of prepubescent girls.
It’s enraging that the ‘experts’ in power– who are charged with maintaining our civilization– are becoming more destructive by the day.
They justify their decisions with legal vagaries and high sounding talk of human rights… without realizing how ridiculous they sound. GOING TO A DAY SPA IS NOT A HUMAN RIGHT! Duh.
But that’s not even the point. I read Wilvich’s entire blog site, going back several years. And my conclusion is that Wilvich is an extremely angry and unstable person.
The March 5, 2023, entry, for example (entitled “Fuck America”) viciously laments that “even my own liberal bubble is threatening to pop” because the country was not woke enough.
Bear in mind that 2023 was the same year that a trans activist exposed they/their boobs on the White House lawn in a symbol of peak, Biden-era insanity. Yet even that was insufficient progress for Wilvich.
This person needs serious, professional help. And I don’t mean that in a derisive way. It’s just a fact. But rather than get major psychological support, Wilvich was given a pulpit… and the power to force hard-working business owners to betray their commonsense value system.
Wilvich even gloated about it, writing later on they/them’s website, “I did it! I got the main naked lady spa in the area to change their policies and allow all self-identified women access regardless of surgery and genitals.”
In short, business and property owners have no rights. Their female patrons have no rights. Girls as young as 13 who are now forced to be nude in front of grown men… have no rights. Only they/them have rights.
This is an extremely unserious system of justice.

See “This is a case about swinging dicks. . .” and other common sense.
This represents the current state of America. It is the current situation in a long transformational process that has been going on in this country for at least the last 65 years. The godless, homosexual-loving liberal left has been dominating for the last 65 years and this is the kind of thing they represent. They have ruled in the mass media, they have ruled in the court system, they have been ruling in politics, they have been ruling in everything.
What the Left represents is Evil. It is Satanic. And very frustratingly, most conservatives have not stood up to them. They have been silent, intimidated by fear of being called names (names like “hater”, “bigot”, etc.).
The Bible tells us that Satan rules this world. One way he rules is through people with power.
