Today we babble about \u201cexperience\u201d as somehow conferring that right.  Tomorrow some rich brute like Trump says, \u201cWho cares about experience and all that other crap? I want my enemies to not exist anymore and who\u2019s going to stop me?  I decide whose life has meaning and whose does not. That smart broad at Princeton said so.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The day is not far off when people like Harman and people like Trump will suddenly gaze into each other\u2019s eyes and wonder why they never saw how beautiful the other was and how much they have in common. In that hour, the rest of us in the 99%, born and unborn, will be absolutely screwed.<\/p>\n<p>The believers in Harman imagine they are protecting women when they are, in fact, protecting Trump.  The believers in Trump imagine Trump sees them as fellow members of the Master Race when in fact he sees them as prey.<\/p>\n<p>In the end, all the crap about meeting qualifications for humanity is a smokescreen on one thing: power. Once you grant that the Powerful have the right to decide who is and is not human, it\u2019s just a matter of time before they grant themselves the sole franchise.<\/p>\n<p>Remove from every human
