Two views on the current state of the West. Both share a fairly grim tone. We need to as nations of the West turn things around. The classical liberal* principles that our societies were founded on need to be restored and refreshed in their primacy of how we exist as people in society.
There are competing narratives of how we are supposed to advance society, I think if we stray from the path we’re on we going to be in trouble.
*Classical liberalism is a political tradition and a branch of liberalism which advocates free market and laissez-faire economics; and civil liberties under the rule of law, with special emphasis on individual autonomy, limited government, economic freedom, political freedom and freedom of speech
I spent a fair amount of time poking fun at the US right-wing here on DWR. But as of late is that very same right wing that is standing up and fighting for the rights, boundaries, and safety of women. The noisy befuddled activist Left has taken over the discourse on the Left and as result it has turned into utter identitarian hogwash.
The Left I knew was about promoting the interests of the working class and helping people get to a place economically and socially where they could contribute to society and have a reasonable life within the bounds of our Western values. Now? It is intersectionality 24/7 in a competition to see is the most oppressed and who is best at fracturing society into warring factions bent on dismantling the very system that lets them spout their egregious bullshite.
So, you have to look to whomever has the most reasonable and fact based ideas – it is how we actually progress as a nation.
A Poisoned Environment The Ontario Human Rights Commission states that a poisoned environment is a form of discrimination.
An example given is a man who claims to possess invisible female essence being forced to use the men’s room at work. This can lead to a “hostile and oppressive atmosphere.”
But the truth is, gender identity ideology is the poison, a very potent one, and just one drop is enough to destroy entire families, workplaces, schools, and institutions.
When parents who are true believers in gender souls transition their young child, it becomes the job of the child’s whole school to validate the lie. Every child in the school must be detached from reality, forced to live in a fictional world where humans can change sex like clownfish.
The poisonous ideology then inevitably claims more young victims.
When a teen tumbles down a gender rabbit hole online, and emerges believing that all her pubertal woes are a sign she is transgender, her family is supposed to accept that her whole childhood was a lie.
They are forbidden from using her name, and they’re supposed to celebrate the medical demolition of her healthy body. Failure to do so makes them abusive parents.
When an employer hires one of those curious beings who claim to be sexless, everyone in the workplace has to walk on eggshells, taking pains to mangle the English language so as not to offend the perpetually offended.
When a man decides to move on from just masturbating wearing women’s clothes to wearing them all the time, everyone in his workplace has to deny the evidence of their own eyes and pretend he has magically transformed into a woman.
Women must quell their unease and gladly welcome him into their spaces.
When an institution like the YWCA becomes poisoned by gender identity ideology, it finds itself prioritising sex offenders’ rights over the comfort and safety of rape survivors.
Fortunately, there is a very effective antidote to this particular poison, and it’s called the truth. When everyone stops going along with the lie, out of kindness and a misguided sense of compassion, the poison will lose its strength, and we can start to edge back towards sanity.
