The US left has had their LGB and women’s policy groups hijacked by gender identity extremists whose ideas are so unpopular, their leading strategy is to silence critics & prevent any public debate on the effects their proposals have on the well-being of women and children.

It’s been the plan of gender activists in the US all along to act quietly, capture institutional support, silence critics, and spring the results on everyone by surprise, as a done deal.

This governance by surprise is a deliberate tactic of the gender identity movement, internationally, as coordinated by the Dentons law firm, and the Thomson Reuters Foundation.

Dentons’ legal memo is best summarized in this thorough, but unfortunately paywalled, article, by James Kirkup, in the Spectator, published in December, 2019, “The document that reveals the remarkable tactics of trans lobbyists.”

One of the key findings is that all of the strategies are geared towards eroding parental authority over children’s decisions around adopting a gender identity, or accessing experimental gender procedures.
They recommend getting in on the ground floor, before any policy is made, to “get ahead of the government agenda.” 
They recommend tying the campaign for gender identity policies around minors to “more popular reform,” in recognition of the fact that they’re advocating “a more difficult issue to win public support for.”
They tell advocates to, “avoid excessive press coverage and exposure.”

And then there are all the other women’s festivals closed, the campus gatherings shut down, the women in France, Canada, New Zealand, Australia, Mexico, South Korea, and Japan, whose stories about being harassed by gender activists we’ve heard over the years. It never ends.
You also can’t escape the harassment of gender activists in Tasmania, Nigeria, or Ireland.
It’s a lot of work to shut up enough women so you can convince governments to erase biological sex in the law, and erase womanhood as a social and legal category for adult human females.

In the US, when women work to protect our rights, writers at sites like Vox and Jezebel refer to it using phrases like, “unholy alliance.”
Oh, hello. Now there’s a conservative activist who worked on the Fairness For All legislation using the “unholy alliance” phrasing to criticize us.
Media Matters, the largest, most influential talking points clearinghouse on the left, calls us “fake feminists,” rather than discussing our ideas on the merits, based on the impacts of gender identity on our rights.
Of note, not long after Media Matters started doing this, a very disturbed young man called multiple women with WoLF, and associated with the Hands Across The Aisle Coalition. He called us “fake feminists,” like they do. He harassed one woman at work, until he got her fired.
Here’s the conservative strategist and gender activist again, calling us “fake feminists,” defending Media Matters, trashing critics as “haters,” and entirely unable to define simple terms like “man,” “woman,” or “trans.”
Tyler Deaton, who describes himself as a gay Republican, like other gender identity activists, refused to define the term “gay man.” A requirement of gender activism is to obliterate the idea of biological sex even from one’s own mind.
He claims to represent religious conservatives’ interests through his Fairness For All advocacy, but it seems clear that his real motivation is just the promotion of gender identity, and he doesn’t seem to really care about the alliances he built with the people who wanted FFA.
Which is typical. You can never trust gender identity activists to prioritize anything else, because it’s a political religion that demands total, unyielding loyalty. One’s every thought must be bent towards making yourself and others affirm that “trans women are women.”
Such a totalizing denial of reality, simple at base, demands ever more complex evasions and contortions to defend. The simple falsehood, that human beings can change sex on the basis of self-declaration, requires an elaborate defense. When that fails, an elaborate attack.
Gender activists made their greatest progress in the UK with Conservatives, and their greatest progress in the US with Democrats. They criticize left-leaning feminists as “far right,” or “conservative,” because we’re generally allied with left-leaning political movements.
But it’s important to see, and remember, that all they care about is winning. They don’t care about their temporary alliances, they don’t care if they have to saddle others with grimly unpopular policies or turn your movement into a mess of vicious infighting.

The gender identity movement is a temple to the idea that “trans women are women,” and they will burn the whole world on the altar of their fervor, if they can.
