There is only two sexes everywhere.

Even the pro trans folks will admit when you push them that “gender and biological sex are two different things.”

The new game is pretending that when we say “man,” and “woman,” we are talking about gender and not biological sex even though for all of history we have been talking about biological sex and not whether Jane likes to wear men’s clothes more than womens clothes and doesn’t like working in the kitchen. For all of time that was called gender roles.

That's not really new though they've been claiming that for quite a while.

And it's straight out of the neo Marxist playbook and it's insidious.

Play with semantics, use your own definitions so that things don't mean what they used to mean which obfuscates their intentions, and try to soften the blow of their radicalism by introducing a simple and seemingly reasonable concept. But once they get their foot in the door the slippery slope follows which was their intention all along.

Sell people a small and seemingly reasonable and harmless lie, which gets them to easier swallow a big and completely unreasonable and harmful lie.

The trans nonsense is exactly what that is. They try to sell it by trying to say that sex and gender are different even though they've been used interchangeably for a long time. It seems reasonable though, but then they use that to catapult it into men can be women and woman can be men. Which is stone cold absurd, but if you've accepted that gender is different from sex all of a sudden it seems less crazy.

"Oh you're talking about gender? That thing you got me to believe was different? I guess it makes sense?"

But it's slight of hand, and gullible people that are just trying to be nice fall for it.

But then in a lot of cases you've got these people trapped because if they fall for one lie they fall for more, and suddenly they're radicalized too, and it's not just about trannies anymore it's about all the other nonsense and anyone who doesn't agree is evil and suddenly you've slid all the way down the slope and you have blue hair and a nose ring.

Great post, Geng.

I'm sure most here know this, but for anyone who might not, look up Kinsey and his partner (I'm blanking on his name right now) where most of this nonsense originated. Absolutely sick stuff - he did awful things to little kids - and it's shocking that this ever even gained a foothold.

But as you said, once it does, people actually believe it as fact, and it only metastasizes to other areas.

metastasizes to other areas.

Great way to put it.

This is truly astounding. Raising the flag of an oppressive Communist regime with active, ongoing genocide programs (not fake ones like other claim about other countries). How do you possibly explain this?

It still blows my mind that, as a country, we continue to lie in bed with China.

They must be so much farther ahead of us technologoically that we can't figure out how to make all the cheap shit US consumers demand.

We denounce slavery on one hand while making deal after deal with China on the other.

Hypocrites indeed.

It's not the technologically advanced part. It's why they steal our shit.

It's the cheap labor and miserable working conditions.

Not everyone's in bed with them. Just the left and maybe a few of the rhinos.

Oh and the other part is they don't give two shits about the environment. They are happy to destroy it and let everyone else in the world worry about it. Also thus making living in their conditions horrific.

Right, we imposed manufacturing restrictions on ourselves, but again, we're right there han-in-hand with someone who doesn't hold themselves to the same standards.

It doesn't matter if we have Republican or Democrat leadership, it never changes.

BS

America knows no other way.

Without China's cheap labor and tech, we'd be lost.

Mexico is actually cheaper and has more skilled laborers. We are still dependent on their labor but only until we are able to transition to other countries. I don’t think that’s the same as “being in bed with them.” Biden had all kinds of shady shit going on with them.

So the Government is shut down (again). Good. Less damage can be done this way.

Pretty sure that career was already over. As soon as people actually got to/had to listen to her talk it was all over.
