This really is a battle that needs fighting right now. Transgenderism is one of the very hottest of the many fronts of the wars which Cultural Marxism is waging on Western Civilisation. It matters so much because it goes to the heart of one of the most important and contested issues which divide right and left: is there such a thing as truth?
If you believe – as the Social Justice Warriors, liberal “intellectuals” and other relativistic cretins do – that truth is just a matter of opinion then clearly, you are whatever you say you are, be it a man, a woman, non-binary, polygender, intersex, trans and the rest of that nonsense list of LBGTetc terms.
If, on the other hand, you subscribe to the more traditional, rational view that biological sex (not “gender” – a left-wing invention) is determined by chromosomes and organs like wombs and penises, then it’s pretty damned obvious that you’re born either one thing or the other, regardless of how much surgical mutilation you undergo or how many hormones you take.
Crusading progressives want to portray this as a war between nice people who have feelings and horrid people who are stuck in the dark ages because of their vile prejudices. But it’s not that at all. Ultimately, it’s a battle over who gets to define what truth is: the rationalists or the idealistic fantasists.
This gets at the fundamental premise of the left – that there is no such thing as right and wrong. Am I the only one who notices the dichotomy between right/left and right/wrong?
We should just start calling it right wing and wrong wing. Just stop using the word left; only the word wrong.
I think I posted this link on a similar thread some time ago but its relevance for laying out the necessity of “right” thinking in science is applicable to the rest of life. If one cares about understanding how things really work. It’s long but worth the hour plus.

We can’t let others define us or our terms. The dictionary doesn’t belong to progressives, and they need to have their hands slapped every time they reach for it.
Mentally ill – describes the “left” as a group the most accurately.
Hypocrisy, illogic, and irrationality – are identifiable traits amongst them.
So what have the hermaphrodites, described in ancient Greece sources, been doing for all these centuries? inquiring minds want to know!
To the left right or wrong, or truth is whatever advances the cause of Marxism/communism.
Knight 99, exactly. The left, contrary to their public SJW statements, hates mankind.
All hail the Patriarchy! It truly rules over all. A fake vagina trumps a real vagina. /sarc
My third favourite Steely Dan album is “Pretzel Logic.” It’s truly entertaining watching the left make pretzels.
ummmm, welcome to the end times . . . . . ?
There’s no scientific evidence supporting this, but, then, there’s no need for it because–ahem–“the science is settled”, right?
Hey Morris. Here is an alternative view.

Sounds like fun. I’m old, but I still have that aluminum bat from when I still swung from the thighs. Target the stocky, pimply faced short haired, manly girls.. Let’s go!!
You meant the Alt-right Vs. Basic Moron.
I am free man trapped in taxpayer body.
Yess…hard to argue with that well thought out world view. I’ll just have to apologize for not keeping up on my lightning smiting practice and concede the field to the powers of progressives. (thanks for the laugh…got to laugh or just end up crying…btw how did they manage to record that session without using the western heresy science? lightning in a box?)
“ Ultimately, it’s a battle over who gets to define what truth is: the rationalists or the idealistic fantasists..”
That statement sounds so stupid. It asks … Who’s sane? … The crazy people or the sane people?”
What is the Orange? The apple or the Orange?
I’m not convinced that the natal women are superior to the trans ones. Anyone might be born female, but to have your willy shrunk and your balls cut off demonstrates commitment.
At around that point, you can switch washrooms.
