TRA campaigns are normative-phobic. I can make claims too, but at least mine aren't outrageous.

So just in the last few days: prisons and the words "woman," "breast milk" and "mother" have been declared transphobic.

In the meantime, magazines aimed at young women are telling us to go ahead and fantasize about eating people.

I'm now at the point where I think a lot of this is a stealth campaign by the conservatives of the world to make liberals looks so ridiculous they will never hold office again.

I'm going to make sure I make those claims. I sometimes wonder if this major ID politics is something pushed by the conservatives to make sure liberal people stay out of politics, but if so it sort of gets my hopes up that the conservatives actually have control of this situation and will shut it down, they hate the things happening right now which also affect them too? But no, more likely people are this stupid. Someone theorises that it's ramped up more in the media, they could be right as it keeps everyone divided and distracted.

I think there's a way more sinister motive behind this, past the money to be made from transitioning children. Trans-humanism? Lower the birth rate? Women's bodies being made into commodities?

Whatever it is, conservatives, often no friends to women, might jump on board with Big Gender once they too think it's the best (or most profitable) way forward.
