It's diabolically brilliant in its simplicity.
And I'm not talking about the twitter drones who vomit up the talking points as easily as they say orange man bad. Those people are little more than bobble heads that manage speech somehow.
No, I'm talking about the thought leaders.
As long as the person is doing what they want and is given accolades and public opinion is in their favor, they can sing the 'woman's' favor and call people critical of them misogynist and buzzword, buzzword, buzzword.
The minute that 'woman' fucks up or steps outside the plantation, BAM! They're a man again, and it's all the fault of the patriarchy.
It's basically win-win. They can play the girl-power card when they're up and patriarchy poker when their down.
oh that part's easy. there's lots of that to go around.
I'm talking the feminists who use it to push their girl-power bullshit on soccer-mom america.
There aren't any significant "feminists" anymore.
The movement has been entirely consumed by black lesbians in the 70s who stole the grift from white women. Any "feminist" you see that has mainstream cachet is just using the label to push the race marxist agenda - specifically by de-legitimizing and disempowering white men.
The two groups pushing trannies are perverts and marxists/satanists.
The perverts are all mentally ill coomers, narcissists, and sadists. Every tranny you see in public is Buffalo Bill from Silence of the Lambs.
The trannies get off on forcing normal people to call them woman. Why do you think ITS MAAAM guy got so mad? Because his woman-larping cooming was denied and his narcissism saw it as an intentional attack on him.
The marxists/satanists are using trannies as another inversion of reality to corrode civilization. Their delusional belief is that utopia is achieved once all "oppression" is removed, which in practice means committing social, economic, and physical violence against anyone who says "No" to them.
Edit: also don't buy into the premise that you need to grovel about "gender dysphoria" which, list most "mental illness" is fake (and gay). If someone is truly delusional and believes he is something he isn't, then he belongs in a nuthouse and on drugs and shock therapy until he is sane enough to no longer say he believes that.
That sums it up quite nicely. It's a fetish, and by "misgendering" them you're really cock blocking them.
The problem with Marxists is "equality" is their ultimate ideal, even if that means we're all equally miserable. If they burn down your neighborhood and you're not broke on the street, they're okay with your kids starving, because, hey, your neighbor who made slightly less a year than you also has equally starving, homeless kids. When you understand that, it's easy to see why this sort of mix and match gender shit appeals to them, because hey, if we all cut our dicks and our tits off, we'll all be equally dickless and titless.
Regarding gender dysphoria, it's not that it isn't real, it's just that it's (thankfully) ridiculously rare. (probably more people have gotten and died of covid prevaccine, honestly).
But yeah, the trendiness, and the adolescent need for attention, and of course the lazy athlete who wants a trophy no matter what it costs.
On the upside, though, at least people will watch the WNBA now.😁
Cultural marxists are just communists hitting the flanks.
It helps if you think of cultural marxism as a new strain of the original computer virus
I am reminded of the anti-spoiler terms from Dwarf Fortress, specifically the Hidden Fun Stuff: just like in clown world-- the circus is hell, and the clowns are demons.
stop trying to carve out exceptions for the "genuinely" mentally ill. they only provide shade for degeneracy.
The problem is degeneracy is as much a buzzword to me as patriarchy theory. They're both vaguely dogmatic terms that mean very little to me, because I don't follow the faith they come from.
That being said, there will always be deviations who don't fit the established mold, no matter how hard they or anyone else tries to force them into it. Simply shunning them from society doesn't work when there are movements that are ready, willing, and able to scoop them up and turn them into a weapon against you, so it makes sense to try to find a place for them in society, even if you have to hold your nose to do so. You can only scorch the earth so far afield, after all.
I don't think your theory is correct because if it was just the privileges of being a transsexual that keep them in line, the thought leaders could just use the same strategy with some other title of nobility with less turnover.
I think they push transsexual bullshit because it inherently makes people more loyal to them. It's not just a eunuch's inability to sire children removing a potential challenger for his loyalty, as it was in ancient China, but also the fact that a transsexual who loses faith in your ideology might not want to keep on living and so will die instead of turning against you.
It really is the ugliness of Marxism distilled down to the purest of spirits...
You're whatever you want to be so long as you fall in line, but the minute you step over that line, you're nothing.
You'll note that one of the advantages - if you're in this camp - of the current lack of definition of what a woman even is also allows this course of action for biological females as well.
See J.K.Rowling.
This.
'Woman' is no longer a sex, or even a 'gender', it's now a political identity, and as such, you can be voted out of the party.
Biden's 'you aint black' comment applies to women who think their female privilege will allow them to reject the marxist feminist globohomo message.
Yup. Plaid Cmyru did that same thing to my grandfather - who was actually entirely Welsh, whereas I'm something of a mutt. But because he didn't agree with them, they didn't regard him as Welsh.
This is true.
That’s a very good point. When you use an identity group as a political and cultural cudgel, you need a means to instantly discredit dissident members of that group. The fastest and most effective means is a simple purity test involving an obviously insane premise. Your zealots will pass because they agree with whatever you tell them. Anyone who thinks for themself will trip up
No, the later waves of feminism are all marxist. Their goal is to destroy the family (plus all other communities that may compete with the government's authority).
What better way to have children be rejected by their parents than to make them join the LGBT+, embrace promiscuous and interracial sex, hate white men (their dad), do drugs, get tatoos and pink hair, etc. When the child has antagonised his family, the cult becomes his only group.
Marxists worship the government as a god, quite litterally. All that is not the government must be destroyed.
Not exactly.
Picture a Venn Diagram. On one side, you've got a circle that's people obsessed with equality to the point of making people equality miserable so long as they're equal. On the other, you have a group of upper and upper middle class trust-funders who have never accomplished anything and feel guilty for the wealth they enjoy but didn't earn. nine out of ten marxists fall comfortably into the sliver between those two circles.
Hell, you look at Marx's life, and you realize why this shit appeals to them, it's because the bastard was one of them in every way imaginable, down to never working a hard day's labor in his life.
It's quite simple. Trannies are motivated solely by perversion. So the trannies themselves and a lot of their enablers are just perverts with degenerate fetishes. It's the "anything goes as long as it makes my pee pee hard" mentality in action. The reason the degeneracy is promoted and encouraged is because the commies that have infiltrated our institutions find it useful for destroying Western Civilization. Retarded activists use the bullshit to beat each other over the head of course, but the causes don't really have anything to do with them.
Some of them. Some of them are washed up athletes and celebrities looking for an easy path to glory, a tiny fraction have a genuine mental disorder, and some of them are simply young adults and teens desperately seeking acceptance in a world of social media that's made the world so small that none of us feel like we fit in the room anymore.
Imagine being in highschool in this day and age and having to compete for attention with not just your own school's kids, but every kid your age with access to a cellphone. There's adults who have trouble with that crap, I can see why teens would do almost anything for attention in that atmosphere.
Regarding marxism, It's not just a tool to tear down western society. It legitimately fits into their collectivist ideology, particularly when you look at their obsession with "equality" at any cost. How can we be equal if there are two distinct genders? Transgenderism allows them to further blur the distinctions between people while giving them a mask of "sensitivity."
They hate men and the trans movement was a weapon they could use to attack men and emasculate boys. It's really not any more complicated than that. They're not exactly deep thinkers.
Most of the bedroom feminists maybe, but you'd be a fool to assume there aren't smart people pushing this crap from behind the scenes who buy into the dogma, or at the very least see it as a springboard for their own agenda/advancement.
Seriously, there's a type of stupidity that only smart people fall into. It's hard to describe, but you know it when you've seen it.
I don't disagree. The left is a cult, and like all cults, it's comprised of vulnerable people with identity issues, centred around a few very charismatic individuals who are usually psychopaths.
I don't necessarily think feminists specifically fall into that category. Feminism is an emotionally-driven movement: the politicization of women's resentment and entitlement, and even the pseudointellectuals whose work forms the theoretical basis for feminism are not necessarily intelligent so much as they are good at convincing themselves of their own bullshit.
But for the real ideologues behind the left, the trans movement represents the final revolution: the revolution of the personal. It's about giving themselves the ability to supercede biology and to control people's identities on an individual basis, to disrupt not only the bonds of family, but also an individual's ability to formulate a coherent sense of their own identity and to replace those things with the state.
Yes, I agree with you: there are people behind that who know exactly what they're doing and why.
What's ironic is that marxists, in particular the purest of marxist followers, think of themselves as anti-statist, but their solution to the state is to create a totalitarian superstate that will somehow eventually wither away once it's done reshaping human beings into some sort of share and share alike egalitarians.
Sadly though, marxism in practice is basically glorified feudalism with the nobility replaced by the Party.
I don't see this. There are people who buy into transgenderism and those who don't.
Yeah, but there are people who don't buy into it who also know a good hustle when they smell it.
P.T Barnum put it best, honestly.
I don't follow. I haven't seen anyone who normally indulges trannies flip flop and start calling a tranny male based on said tranny's behavior. In other words, I don't see, for example, Blair White being referred to as male because of Blair being more right-wing. Maybe that's not the kind of thing you are talking about, and I'm misunderstanding.
It's been a while, but I've seen a few examples.
Think of how white antifa members call black cops uncle tom and coon. They don't care about the causes they espouse, they just use them as an excuse to push their own agenda.
And are you gonna tell me if you put on a skirt and started parrotted the talking points youtube wouldn't give you a million subscribers in a couple of months? lol.
It is the shroud of the 'most oppressed' for attention because it is trendy. Being a white woman is no longer an automatic win these days for those too lazy to work but still want money, accolades, power, and attention. They have to co-opt everything that is popular to give themselves what they crave. Along the way, other predators/parasites do the same thing. 10 years ago, it was just being Queer. 6 years before that, it was cutting and emo. Before that it was black acting, before that hispanic acting, before that it was the jeans, tshirts, and rural girl in a big city, then heathers, then prep/young republicans, then farah fawcet, then super model/anorexia, then hippie, then blah fucking blah. White girls TM and other social parasites/predators were always trend followers that destroy everything as they make it more popular.
Oh yeah, there's the trendiness thing, no doubt.
But I'm saying It's also a useful tool if you wanna control the karens who control something like sixty percent of all money spent in the world...
The Twitter moms and the soccer Karens? not so much.
But there are people who pull the strings behind the scenes who either believe in this shit or else see it as a useful hustle to grow their own bank accounts.
See, you don't have to invent a movement to take advantage of it.
Let's use environmentalism as an example. In it's most basica form, yeah, it makes sense. Recycle and reuse as much as you can, buy locally as much as possible so that your food and other supplies aren't being shipped from halfway around the world wasting massive amounts of fuel for no reason, don't dump toxic sludge into the water table, reduce your use of plastics as much as reasonably possible, etc.
These are all perfectly reasonable ideas I think we can all agree make sense and are generally good things for the environment.
But then you get into the climate change people, and it just becomes absolutely insane and ridiculous the lengths they have to go to keep people buying into it, and you realize somebody is taking advantage of an otherwise positive movement for their own benefit.
