Remember when the Klingons went back in time to Earth, learned about baseball & introduced it to Vulcans as a way to lead Spock into sports instead of intellectual pursuits?
Because gender activists make demonstrably false claims about biology, they've had to invent a whole new framework to justify persisting in delusion.
Trans people aren't making false claims, they're simply "communicating alternative knowledge claims."
Critics of gender ideology aren't simply disputing factual claims made by trans people, they're "perpetuating epistemic violence."
If someone ever claims something you said is false, just accuse them of committing epistemic violence against you. Win every argument.
@ForestMommy There has to be a huge Mohammedan mafia on the east coast. “Ok, Ali, we’re gonna take your head.”…”Why not just a finger? This is US. I saw the movies.”
@aimeeterese Interesting. I’ve never read social psychoanalysis. I wonder whether these mental processes play out similarly in more structured, formal groups? And if so, what is the importance of group size & leadership style?
People’s inability to regulate their emotions in response to figures with whom their relations are parasocial-at-best, is so fucking embarrassing. If you feel anything in response to Lindsay Grahams death, you’re projecting. Get a grip you fucking loser.
Bunch of rich white liberals spoke again about the "black run" farm Frontline Farms that quite literally is an NGO front. Millions in salaries paid. 100k on farm expenses. But of course the town ending their lease is RACIST
The disturbing part isn’t cartoon villains or demons.
It’s rich, insulated people with more money than accountability deciding they should reshape society around their personal philosophies.
Arcus Foundation, backed by the Stryker fortune, spends tens of millions protecting great apes because biology and nature deserve respect.
It also spends tens of millions funding transgender advocacy.
Same foundation. Same money. Two very different ways of thinking about biology.
Whether you see that as consistent or contradictory, it’s a reminder that enormous private wealth can shape public culture without ever facing a vote.
