I’m sorry but it’s not our fault this depravity has taken over. There’s no huge movement it just appears that there’s a huge movement because the news and hollywood are pushing it. If we cave the slightest on this then we lose everything.
It is partly our fault. If we'd said that we recognize that there are a lot of people with this disorder and that the label "gender identity" can refer, for them, to their psychological perception of their psychological identity, which is distinct from their biological sex, we would sound reasonable and compassionate. We can say we don't agree that a "gender identity" makes someone a "real woman" or a "real man" as if there is no meaningful distinction between gender-identity and biological-sex. So we don't have to agree with their crazy shit. But in our approach to the difficult topic we could have at least come off as reasonable and compassionate.
Then we'd have a reasonable and compassionate voice in the debate over locker rooms and girls sports and whether or not we can be fired/banned for 'mis-gendering'.
But we've acted like trollish assholes, which has gotten ourselves excluded from the broader debate, which has allowed this deranged insanity to win the debate on all fronts. The world is now changing fast, into clown world, and we're not there to stop it because acting like assholes got us excluded from the debate in the first place. The left doesn't have to listen to any of our debunkings because they can merely point out how 'bigoted' and 'hateful' we are, and that's the end of it. That is working. They are winning. We are relegated to this little website here, with griping and memes, while the rest of the world moves on without us. We are losing on a catastrophic scale and there are zero signs of that changing.
