"The trans movement is asserting the right of very young people to make important decisions about their sexuality." Are they really? You well know that I have long characterized wokism as a form of Left-establishment politics and with the recent publication of Musa al-Gharbi's We Have Never Been Woke in which he elaborates upon Peter Turchin's model of elite overproduction, I think my characterization of them as establishment has been substantiated. Gentrification today doesn't go from Left to Right. It happens on both sides from liberationist-bottom to protectionist-top. As such, the loudest expression of the Left-Right divide is a divide among competing forms of child protectionism. And Lial partakes in this shell game by labeling pundits in terms of who is being "exploited." Using status labels to override the substance of someone's argument is classic establishment bullshit. |
