Richard Dawkins convinced me that Christianity was a lie. Now I'm seeing him talk about how being transgender is a lie and that we're insane. He's a biologist so he knows what he's talking about. Now I'm struggling mentally again after years of trying to work through accepting who I am.

exactly as angrily as they were screaming "you can have a live daughter or a dead son!" for the previous ~12 years

reminds me of the ADL pivoting overnight from "people must be fired, debanked, and declared outlaw for using the OK symbol" to "the Black Sun and other emblems of units that smashed babies against trees until the bark turned greasy from all the brains and SS headquarters told them to slow down because someone might find the photos are actually good since they were fighting Ruzzia"

tbf you don't see many (or anyone) going to the mat for this guy, whereas every time some Ben Franklin lookalike dicks their own mother or demands they serve their 30 life sentences for rape in a women's prison every single teenybopper "queer activist" flips out at all the misgendering going on, enthusiastically drawing the connection themselves

uniting everyone by pissing off every conceivable group at once, a bold move

OuroborosTheory · 2024-05-16T04:59:27+00:00

I'm always "surprised that I'm surprised" whenever I see these silly teenyboppers completely unwittingly reinforcing every single prejudice they say they're fighting--"just a reminder that the serial rapist demanding transfer to women's prison is trans! be sure and think of those two facts in conjunction each and every time!"

I've seen pet-store hamsters with better self-preservation skills

OuroborosTheory · 2024-05-16T02:29:40+00:00

yeah, if 1. there's an identity that makes large amounts of people--people with real (literal) authority, like judges and prison wardens--bend to practically every whim even if you're an admitted serial rapist, and can get anyone who complains arrested instead, and 2. you can claim it just by making a few minor changes to appearance, logic says that people are going to take take advantage of it, and that its proponents are going to have to at least think of a defense when it happens; but that's "gatekeeping" to the ever-changing hivemind of suburban 20yos getting a useless degree, and thus not Being Kind (which costs nothing, remember!)

most of the older dysphorics at least considered the possibility they might not be accepted, but they got outnumbered by the used-tampon-fishing Ben Franklin impersonators--who, naturally will be pushing all of the above; you didn't see the gays running around reminding everyone unpromoted that Ed Savitz was one of them

it reminds me of how the radfems themselves were toppled--for decades they wrote the laws and police procedures, the mandatory training sessions, colleges' literal handling of rape; nobody in their carefully-weeded female-only classes and departments blinked when they said wombxn reproduced by cloning before 2000 BC or that Phil Hartman must've had it coming or that rape allegations shouldn't be subjected to the retraumatizing abuse of a trial; then one day (~2014, before then I remember Tumblr being full of hateful little radfem shits) they said "even if they pretend to be women!" and were kicked out by the same enforcement system they'd built

demanding "affirmation" and strongarming any criticism as just unfair hostility turns your brain to complete mush

OuroborosTheory · 2024-05-13T05:51:40+00:00

their biggest vulnerability is being pinned down to one single definition on anything, that's why they have a whole countervocabulary aimed at their own activism from just a few years ago--saying you have to have dysphoria is "truscum," using surgery as a criterion is "transmedicalist," using self-presentation as a criterion is "cis-passing assimilationism," using "they/them" is denialist, complaining about "they/them" is "NBphobic": the point is to have the proverbial buzzer go off with EVERY choice you make because that's how you break down people like an ill-conceived 50s CIA experiment

IOW if it was from The Past it's something bad, and only complete bobble-head Affirmation of whatever you're being told at the moment is acceptable

they're masters of having their cake and eating it too: 1. you need dysphoria to claim you'll LITERALLY KILL yourself if you can't walk erect into the women's shower, BUT 2. the anime Ben Franklin cosplayers need to not have surgery or act anything like normal females (that's "truscum," "normative," "assimilatonist," or whatever buzzword)

tbf it's not that different from the radfems' "disadvantages to wombxn are patriarchy! and advantages to wombxn are patriarchy because they're patronizing! and any problems penismonsters have is patriarchy because they made The System responsible for everything! AND we should legally ban any problems penismonsters have from being addressed because the world already caters to sick, homeless, depressed, and so-called 'abused' penismonsters!"

honestly exhausting critics by making them scurry after constant contradiction and hypocrisy is tactical, and these "studies" and "theories" are just self-centered double-standards skiving (at least in their eventual watered-down "Tumblr" forms, I've had some interesting lectures)

also interesting to trace the de-compartmentalization of the internet over the decades: 80s you had BBS bulletin boards and mailing lists, and the 90s and 00s were dominated by specific fan or political forums and bigger places like Elfwood or Archive of Our Own--and the furries were definitely not a minor part of all this, probably the #2 or 3 subculture after slash writers

social media was uniform and accessible nationwide, their members largely college students, famous as the home of conformist, purge-happy, nitpicking, identitarian "SJWism" early 2010s; I think it was also important that campuses couldn't really protest AGAINST the nice smileysmiley African American president, so a lot of frustration built up and was expressed in like rioting over how classes starting with Gilgamesh were "too white" or how the MALE janitors hung the TP and not like Yemeni genocide

there were still specialty websites and blogs, but the left-lib news sites that'd given Obama a hard time (Daily Kos, Josh Marshall) and ended his Reality Distortion Field were seized and synchronized 2016 because Madame President wasn't going to have the peasants KNOWING what she was doing, ditto FB and Twitter warning that it was illegal to look at WikiLeaks or The NY Post; like they even shut down most comments sections to keep people from sharing leaked news

so just as the educated youth were mobilized and given a glimmer of hope they were promptly thwarted, and that's gonna intensify their mental sublimation and make their politics ... weirder

nowadays Tumblr's a ghost town and Facebook's just where your uncle panics that every gas station in America will be blown up at 3:55 tonight/your aunt gleefully posts that the Marshals are coming for Trump tomorrow, leaving Twitter now as the only happening place for under-40s (Musk or no, since he'd 1. be the first to share litterbox stories and 2. blow eight figures developing the X Corp Automated Dry Waste Collector)

OuroborosTheory · 2024-04-18T23:22:28+00:00

and there's been a reaction on the lefter side of politics against "smolbeanism" or "safetyism" (the "soft language" you mentioned): not because it leaves people spineless and unable to draw a line in the sand, but because it lets them be vicious little shits with full social-media and institutional backing; it's like how mass victimization can just make a group themselves collective perpetrators, seeking blood atonement from everyone BUT their old oppressor (Americo-Liberians, Afrikaners, Hutu, Serbs, and, uh ...)

Ana Mardoll sort of broke the dam, a trans man who always presented as female to lure people into the sin of "misgendering" and then orgasm as a personal army shredded the crybullying victim, then they discovered Mardoll designed incubator-seeking munitions and it was all over

(also rewriting the high-school classic "The Lady and the Tiger" to have a GOOD ending where the protagonist gets the princess and the tiger's sent to live happily ever after in a zoo, which is more awful but in a qualitative way)

idpol's just too adaptable (and lucrative) a model for building whole institutions overnight to be abandoned; it's like mad-libs romantic nationalism, any Lithuanian/Serbian/Frisian/north Indian/Hutu/third-gen Turk in Berlin will tell you very loudly they wuz kangs/built the first pyramids/inspired Atlantis/invented everything beginning with language/suffered worse than anybody in history

the whole substantive social-political context would have to change from the Obama-Trump era, immediately making it as outmoded as the White Feather Movement or bell bottoms

thing is it's not 2015 any more: back then campus administrations just fell on their knees quaking whenever a bunch of angry young things with megaphones (or "loudhailer," I do like that British word) and pots and pans and whistles stormed the building and they'd ban white people from Spanish classes or rip out the men's bathrooms or whatthefuckever

and then next semester a new wave of outraged 20yos busts down the doors with a completely different list of non-negotiable demands that'll change the world forever ...

the fundies ended up in this same cycle, they got their attention on the Pledge of Allegiance (state idolatry written by a pinko), their Iraq War (joined by the ratheists), their "Jesus spoke American" textbooks, their "masturbation is gay" laws--but they haven't been an independent force after 2000 and are mostly associated with "I don't want my kids learning Ay-rab numerals in publick school"

eventually activism reaches a diminishing rate of returns--even the steepest escalation of demands ("underhand toilet paper is eugenics!") just gets lost in all the rest; we got rid of the term "master bedroom" and censored 30 Rock episodes and renamed the Chiefs, and yet you're all still here saying everything's worse than ever, almost like your previous demands actually didn't change shit

it's part of the same process that makes activist groups completely change their missions after getting what they wanted (legal equality of the races/sexes, gay marriage), or just stitch themselves onto a more well-funded cause (Americans United, ACLU, NAACP, MeToo just becoming socks for whatever anti-abortion racist Boomers the DNC's running at the moment)

it's the "nonconformist paradox": a girl with a nose ring and green hair will absolutely have bog-standard, completely predictable views; nor is it limited to any one subculture, the Free Individualist Voluntary Meeting will be excommunicating itself over an argument about pp. 3,350-58 of The Authorized Collection of the Shopping Lists of Ayn Rand, Vol. VI (1958-62)

Muggeridge quoted Chesterton as saying "When men choose not to believe in God, they do not thereafter believe in nothing, they then become capable of believing in anything," but it's materially tied to the massive shift in culture that happened in Victorian Britain, when all the villages emptied out to the smoking chimneys of London and North Britian

so the foaming r/atheist who'll rant at how "da Pope would have you executed for learning to read to cover up that they caused the Black Death in 1200 and they destroyed all evidence MAN!" the dotty fundie who thinks America has to burn to Jordan can conquer the Middle East so Jesus can come back in 1981, and their teenager pursuing "magick" from a book written in 1949 to rebel against them are all part of the same historical process

snappy slogan, ya gotta admit

it's still definitely a much better way of posting, finding, displaying, and sharing art and medium-long-form writing (or pictures of T&A) than the fucking timeline style of Twitter which "railroads" everything ("you like that picture you're looking at? well I'm just gonna zip right back to the top of the TL for no reason! good luck scrolling through 30 pages of new shit!") and cuts off search results at like 30

still regret its gratuitous suicide since there's no "art site" around any more and it's another Middle Internet Ages site gone; the whole "sophomores whose politics is lynch all right-handed people" crew just moved easily to Twitter, showing it wasn't 2010s Tumblr itself that was the problem

oddly I was just watching "Sideshow Bob Roberts" and was impressed how villainous they always made Quimby while all the writers (except famously Schwarzwelder) were bog-standard Dems: the point there was that without officials like Quimby and their dead-dog voters a demagogue would have no chance--but the establishment had made sure there'd be no other challengers

so who'd be the "middlemost" pol in the US right now? who do moderates have?

it's one of those degrees that's only ever good for exacly one job--teaching that same subject: you're not "providing analysis of society" if you only ever give the same perfectly-predictable answers and solutions (even if they might shift rapidly with the newest false consensus)--the whole ideology can just fit on a bingo card frankly

maybe it's the casual cross-dressing wolf from Shrek

well it's not like there's any primary research to be done or new interpretations to defend! they just need their sophomore versions of Judith Butler and Peggy McIntosh and Derrick Bell and just snowball them around between each other for all eternity

also interesting is the utter lack of stereotypes or Reduxx fodder they produce: but they don't make much of a blip on SJW, radfem, or anti-SJW; they don't get hard in men's locker rooms, they don't demand to go to men's prison after numerous rapes, at worst the stereotype is that they have the Short Guy Complex (and the usual Tumblrinas and sex pests)

they're literally swimming in T but they don't roar at hapless 19yo shop clerks like Tusken Raiders or demand sex NOW

"they're nice-IS now!"

yeah, it's sarcastic and about the controversy over Aaron Bushnell; tbf I can't imagine Shapiro, Fartlow, or Oli London doing that to themselves (unless angry Transylvanian villagers corner London in a windmill)

ehh, the US invited the founder of al-Qaeda to fundraise in the 80s, and then we have the history of the West with ISIS and Israel with Hamas; so there IS a strong blowback/Deep State not actually knowing what it's doing factor

ironically you can see this in this searing photo of a drag queen vs a lazy dysphoric: one's dressed as a parody of femininity--wig, overdone makeup, garish clothes--the other's a schlubby Ben Franklin lookalike dressed like a 9yo

like they caught it doing that with Homer randomly turning African, but he looked like Sanjay Nahasapeemapetilon

the toll also strongly implies that the player's being deliberately violent (size/strength differences aside): it'd be part of the AGP just like parading through the locker room fully erect (and I can assure you that, despite the men's locker-room shenanigans I've been subjected to, that isn't DONE)
