What seemed strangest to me is being 'staggered' by the perfectly normal, factual view that people can't change sex. He must remember a time when nobody at all thought that men could really become with it. It might be understandable for a young teen in a 'woke' social bubble to be surprised that not everyone agrees with trans ideology, but a man his age? I wonder how much of it was performative.
Yes. It was very 'old man struggles to appear relevant' wasn't it?
I do wonder with these people when they are so happy to spout shit like this what else they say that they don't believe. I mean do they really deep down harbour racist/homophobic views but know the 'right things' to say?
It does seem to me that the reason this has traction despite being obvious bullshit is that for many people it must just be something else they need to pay lip service to.
I'm sorry to say that I suspect some of these people are genuine.
I was struck at a recent right-think training event at my workplace how some of the other employees were just blown away by the material. They thought it was amazing, enlightening, they'd never thought about these things. They assumed the trainer had some kind of real higher knowledge to offer.
I can tell you, none of it was at that level, mostly it was pretty trite.
But while it's possible some were being performative, I am sure that wasn't the case for all of them. For some, it was new, it was something that was a whole new system they could adopt. And whatever old ideas they had, they just didn't come into it much, yk?
I figure maybe these are the same people who are always picking up new self-help books.
