Something I noticed with this YouTube short talking about the insistence to use BCE/CE instead of BC/AD. Ironically that comment was left on a video discussing all the ways the Netflix Cleopatra was bad..
Wanted to know if anyone had any other examples to form a kind of list as we get hit by the big stuff of redheads turning black and trans after our kids we forget it's an attack on all fronts to destroy western culture and some of those attacks are more discreet.
Best example, Cis, even my normie relatives are going 'wtf is cis? What does that even mean?'
That's easy to answer for others. "It's a slur word that perverts use against normal people."
I mean in that case it's an old Latin root that had legitimate use in other real sciences as short hand for "on the same side as".
The stupid part with the gender bullshit is pretending there are two biologically immutable traits that can align on the same or different sides of a divide (binary sex=/=gender) to apply the cis/trans nomenclature to. Rather than one trait and an array of wilfully ignored mental illnesses
Yep, I first learned the term from a map of the Roman Empire: Cisalpine Gaul and Transalpine Gaul. Gaul was partly on the same side of the Alps as Rome, and partly on the opposite side.
I won’t let anyone call me cisgender though, I insist on “normal” or “mentally healthy.”
So would 3rdgenders/non-binaries be gauls, then?
Oversexualized is another example.
It works. Just look how many people say 'problematic' now for anything even remotely inconvenient, when there are at least half a dozen other words that would be more appropriate.
"dangerous"
"mis/disinformation"
