A gaggle of French harpies calling themselves the “Osez le féminisme” (Dare to be a Feminist) — because feminists can’t resist branding themselves as somehow subversive or brave when in fact their ideology is commonplace and uncritically embraced across the West — have sued a beauty pageant for “discrimination” under French labor law because it enforces (gasp!) beauty standards in its contests.
Via France 24:
Per Merriam-Webster, the technical definition of discrimination is “the act of making or perceiving a difference.”
Let us divest ourselves of leftist word games. Winning the ideological war begins with smaller victories over semantics, which the Social Justice™ left understands well.
“Discrimination” devoid of context is not a dirty word. The performance of discrimination per se is not a shameful act. Discrimination is necessary for the execution of the most basic everyday functions on an individual level (you discriminate between water and motor oil as a morning beverage), let alone for a complex civilization.
Of course a beauty pageant discriminates. Discrimination is literally the entire point of a beauty contest.
