Wokeness is like cancel culture in that the time it takes to understand how it may negatively impact you in the future varies from person to person.

Unreal.

Yet real.

I assumed that we are moving towards the trans rights stuff because it's cultural nihilism - basically, the end result of Cultural Marxism taken to the extreme.

Put another way: there's NO END to it. That's what makes it such a "successful" [until it's not] strategy to destroy functional societies, because NO ONE can satisfy the criteria.

Like workplace codes of conduct that have people fired for being "toxic" - NO ONE is safe from such a standard, and so anyone can be fired for any reason under such bullshit "standards".

Hence why thinking people have actual standards. It's like "Innocent until proven guilty beyond a reasonable doubt". THAT is an actual standard.

Under our current and emerging social status quo, essentially everyone is guilty until proven innocent.

It's like 1984.

The perfect system for tyrants to do away with anyone they disagree with.

Once we go down this road, everything and everyone will be destroyed.

The only difference between Cultural Marxism [political correctness] and Economic Marxism [communism] is that the first one destroys society at a slower pace.

It's a slow march to ultimately the same end - if left unopposed.

This is also why anyone or any organization that is not explicitly anti-SJW / anti-Woke, will ultimately become SJW/Woke if allowed to continue.

This is why states like Texas that are armed to the teeth, and generally anti-SJW, are not being dragged into this cultural/social death spiral.

If the standard we have for our society is "Anyone who offends anyone ever - even once in their lifetime - gets cancelled", then every single individual in our society can eventually get cancelled [the 21st century equivalent of bring gulag'ed - outcast from society].

The same way that communism is economic nihilism [Economic Marxism = communism, as stated above], Cultural Marxism is cultural nihilism, which is ultimately economic nihilism.

Once our demographics change and we lose free speech, you can kiss your Constitution and Bill of Rights goodbye.

I would hope these past twenty months have shown people that "rights" are only relative, and only exist insofar as we have enough people in our society willing to hold them up.

My view is this:

The left has ran out of revolutionary energy, and by pushing the trans agenda, we eventually get to a state where people can be jailed for not acknowledging that a person isn't a frog today, and a dinosaur tomorrow, if they claim to "identify" as such.

Then on the third day, they can claim to be TA, deadlfting 225-lb for 113 reps.

And anyone who disagrees is subject to being cancelled [the modern-day equivalent of being sent to a gulag in the USSR].

My friend said that he thinks there is another reason for this madness:

He thinks that due to plastics and other chemical pollution in the water that is "turning the friggin' frogs gay" [disproportionately producing hermaphroditic frogs in water ways], that human beings will likewise start producing masses of transgender people, so by pushing for acceptance now, there won't be outrage and potential lawsuits impeding for the various damage being done now to our environment and food supply system that are causing these things.

If it's cool and trendy [and politically protected] to be trans, people won't be outraged if 10% of the babies born today end up being trans.

I hadn't even thought of that.

But why else might this be happening?

Why are we going absolutely nuts to protect essentially 0.3% of the population, to the point that we are now protecting a person's right to essential change their gender identity on a daily basis?

Also - I walked to McDonald's on Monday for a coffee, walking past the high school I went to, in the process.

I implicitly noticed that the kids there were all extremely short. It wasn't until the next day when my friend mentioned that, that I even noticed it overtly. I didn't see one who was taller than me [174cm / 5'8.6"].

Is human evolution taking a strange course due to environmental toxins or something like that? Will more trans people emerge, and therefore our elite are pushing the trans agenda so hard now in advance of this becoming a reality?

I was on a Zoom call with Uber.  The employees all had various rainbow flags as their background image.  Apparently even blacks have their own rainbow flag now, it's like pink and brown stripes and every person next to their name had him/he she/her etc...  I was like WTF!

Does anyone know exactly WHY this trans agenda is being pushed so hard?

My friend thinks it's because plastics pollution is causing more trans people to be born, and that the number of trans people will be a large percentage of the population - and if they are a "protected group" moving forward, their parents won't sue the government for the environmental toxins causing this evolutionary change.

Any thoughts on this hypothesis?

Within Biden's first week he passed more Trans executive orders than he did anything else.  Some strange agenda on this shit.

Getting back to Adam Kadmon

Midrash
The remarkable contradiction between Genesis 1:27 and Genesis 2:7 could not escape the attention of the Pharisees, for whom the Bible was a subject of close study. In explaining the various views concerning Eve's creation, they taught[3] that Adam was created as a man-woman (androgyny), explaining "זָכָ֥ר וּנְקֵבָ֖ה" (Genesis 1:27) as "male and female" instead of "man and woman," and that the separation of the sexes arose from the subsequent operation upon Adam's body, as related in the Scripture. This explains Philo's statement that the original man was neither man nor woman.

This doctrine concerning the Logos, as also that of man made "in the likeness,"[4] although tinged with true Philonic coloring, is also based on the theology of the Pharisees. In an old Midrash[5] it is remarked:

Thou hast formed me behind and before' (Psalms 139:5) is to be explained 'before the first and after the last day of Creation.' For it is said, 'And the spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters,' meaning the spirit of the Messiah ["the spirit of Adam" in the parallel passage, Midr. Teh. to cxxxix. 5; both readings are essentially the same], of whom it is said (Isaiah 11:2), 'And the spirit of the Lord shall rest upon him.'

This contains the kernel of Philo's philosophical doctrine of the creation of the original man. He calls him the idea of the earthly Adam, while with the rabbis the spirit (רוח) of Adam not only existed before the creation of the earthly Adam, but was preexistent to the whole of creation. From the preexisting Adam, or Messiah, to the Logos is merely a step.

There are not more trans people born as there is no such thing as a man born into a woman's body or a woman born into a man's body. It is brainwashing, pure and simple.

It's bizarre how a certain amount of the population goes along with this nonsense as if it's progress.

Someone pens a beyond-absurd article and somehow a spell is cast.

Same thing with the mass invasions in Europe. No one seems to pinpoint why it's being done and by who. It would be like if someone kept throwing rattlesnakes into your house and all you were concerned about is rattlesnakes=bad and had zero desire to go beyond that.

Perhaps this Covid gene therapy renders us infertile meaning future humans will be grown genetically and thus removing the male/female?

But seriously, I think people have life so easy this is what they feel holds them back in life. It isn't trying to put food on the table, it's protesting that there is not 37 genders.

"Is literalism killing our symbols?

In the quest to appease LGBTTQQIAAP (lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, transsexual, queer, questioning, intersex, asexual, ally, pansexual) communities seeking representation, Portland-based designer Daniel Quasar has produced an update to the iconic rainbow flag.  Extra black and brown stripes were suggested for that flag as a way to highlight the fight against racism, while honoring “black and brown members of the gay community,” its designers explained.  The intent behind Quasar’s “flag reboot” is noble but his design solution misses the mark.

The North American Vexillological Association expounds on the practicality of simple flags:  Avoid the temptation to include a symbol for everybody.

That point is key. The rainbow flags meaning rests not in its individual colors but in the symbolism of the entire spectrum.  The rainbow came from earliest recorded history as a symbol of hope. In the Book of Genesis, it appeared as proof of a covenant between God and all living creatures. Adding more colors to the flag results in a weaker overall symbol that arguably promotes factionalism rather than solidarity—division instead of community

Update:

It seems I posted an out-of-date version of their flag of 'unity' earlier in the thread.  Apparently it's now been redesigned so that the size of the stripes directly correlates with the level of online threats, aggression, bullying and cancel culture being weaponised by that specific letter of the LGBTQAAI+ acronym against anyone who dares to raise even the slightest query about the direction of travel or- God forbid(!) - make a joke!!! :o
