There’s something curious going on with the Creativity Now conference… judging from their speaker roster the top figures in all these creative fields are all men! There are over 25 presenters on the schedule and not one of them is a woman. Last I checked there was no shortage of notable women in these creative fields.
OK so at this point what I see tracking the Jen Bekman TOKION war is that Ms. Bekman has been liyerally goog;ine TOKION’s Creativity Now conference3 and re-pasting the same comment EVERY SINGLE TIME IT IS LISTED and she has the chance to comment. Jen thgis isn’t activism. It’s self promotion and propaganda and it also feels a bit like sour grapes TOKION didn’t ask you to speak at their little show…
Here’s a comment posted in response to your little tirades from a blog you’ll have to dig up on your own – I won’t help you spread your nonsense.
“Yes! Infighting in the hip/intelligensia community: exactly what The Powers That Be want! “Keep busy with picayune matters, you overeducated little brats, while we take a hot steaming dump on the Constitution, then use the Bill of Rights to wipe our asses…Oh by the way, your rent’s going up again!”
Here we are, all essentially on the same page (vaguely leftie politics? Check! Distaste of racism and sexism? Check! No war? Check! Feed the poor? Check!), but some conference doesn’t have enough women/blacks/Asians/etc., so let’s protest! Yeah!
I have the misfortune of regularly attending meetings of various organizations of the petrochemical industry and lemme tell ya: WHITE MALE! WHITE MALE! WHITE MALE! WHITE MALE! WHITE MALE! WHITE MALE! WHITE MALE! WHITE MALE! And when they aren’t white, they’re the blood-drenched billionaire representatives of totalitarian regimes. And when there’s the rare representative of the female gender in attendance (who’s not the prerequisite Rich Man’s Plaything), she’s so reactionary, she’s likely to make Ann Coulter look like Angela Davis (a gal’s gotta make herself noticed in this Old Boy’s Game, y’know?).
But it’s easier to slag Tokion–because this magazine (that no oil company CEO even knows exists;) is, after all, the cornerstone of the universe and if we all raise our voices in protest, we can change Tokion, and thus the world! Yaaaay! I’m so happy priorities are in order.”
So please Jen SAVE US! SAVE US from tiny little downtown art geeks and their maniacal sexism!
Specialists state that personal loans help people to live the way they want, just because they are able to feel free to buy needed stuff. Furthermore, various banks give bank loan for young and old people.
