Decent people who truly want fairness & equal rights for everyone, who insist there “must be a compromise that will protect the rights of ‘trans’ people w/o infringing on others’ rights” misunderstand the nature of gender ideology. “Trans” is an artificial category designed to /1

hide the existence & significance of the single most foundational characteristic that divides humanity - we come in two varieties, male/female. Gender ideology is a project of Queer Theory that knows if it can “queer” the material reality of human sexual dismorphism /2

(& social consequences that flow from that core feature of the human species), there is nothing that cannot be queered into oblivion, no aspect of material reality that can’t be replaced by faith, no sensory perception that can’t be denied, no contradiction that can’t be true. /3

Genderism doesn’t want solutions for people distressed about their sexed bodies or socialized sex roles (so they lie about & shut down objective research). Gender activists don’t want solutions to “protecting feminine men vulnerable to other men” (so they reject 3rd spaces… /4

for eg prisons or changing rooms), they don’t want societal acceptance of people who don’t conform to social sex roles (so they don’t want feminine boys welcomed w/in boys’ sports),
they don’t want emotional & psychological support to help children feel confident in being /5

a healthy girl or boy capable of surviving adolescence to grow into self-assured women & men expressing endless variety of personality, stereotypes be damned. No, gender ideology is about
converting the world to brutal gnostic dualism, so that generations of youth believe /6

the secret to self-actualization & real personhood depends on dissociating from & manipulating their bodies (the more pain & physical dysfunction, the greater one’s access to liberation). Even this zealous proselytizing isn’t genuinely a desire to liberate individuals, but a /7

vehicle for brainwashing & gaslighting a critical mass of humanity into destroying the Enlightenment principles that enabled a few centuries of progress toward a liberal, pluralistic society with systems that balance respect for the dignity of each person /8

w/ foundational societal norms (descriptive & prescriptive) that channel our collective energies, hopes & efforts into knowledge acquisition & application that promotes an ideal of human flourishing. Genderism is the choice b/w a liberal social order, or purposeless anarchy. /end
