You're viewing part of a thread.
Don’t worry, my ideology is cemented. I’m not a kid experimenting with political thought, Ive been at it for decades. I’m just saying I don’t mesh well with the modern left because gender identity politics have co-opted all of those ideologies to their core. I know exactly what my political ideology is, it just lives in hermitage now.
What you're referring to is quite frustrating, I agree. Even more concerning is that it's such an obvious vector for foreign actors to leverage in an attempt to weaken the geopolitical dominance of the Western world.
If Russia and China aren't running psyops and trying to exacerbate the obvious political divide within western nations by utilizing transgender ideology as a wedge topic, they're not even trying. It's just such an obvious vulnerability that it beggars belief to think they wouldn't be trying to fan those flames as much as possible.
I agree wholeheartedly. I firmly believe that there are a lot of young people suddenly realizing they’re trans, that likely wouldn’t be if not for sophisticated and well funded psychological warfare operations by rival nation states.
This is not a reason to turn our backs on vulnerable trans folks. They deserve the right to be safe and heard. But we also need to address the fact that somehow this tiny minority simply existing has driven national political dialogues right off the fucking rails. And for what? The left and right going to war over this hyper-niche issue does nothing but further endanger trans folks and prevent meaningful discourse on far more relevant topics.
So you agree trans people are vulnerable and taken advantage of in the media and general political discourse but the "leftys" lost you cause you talked to some people you didn't like? I don't know about you but I'd rather be on the side of an annoying trans person than the side of another old racist with lead poisoning who plays the victim card when people don't like them.
This isn't related to the thread conversation, at all, but your username is fantastic.
“You find something about modern leftism annoying so you must be a trumper now”
No. Congrats on being the first person in this thread to look like a complete ass.
