This sort of stuff makes me wonder about all the normies who just go along with the demands. All the Labour conference goers who were happily saying TWaW..etc completely unaware that this is the insanity that they’re supporting. The police “checking the thinking” of people who refuse to say that the Emperor’s clothes are the finest that they have ever seen.

I see this stuff, and all the other craziness from both MtFs and FtMs and wonder how did this become something that people don’t just go along with but go full jihad over.

I mean, it has to end at some point doesn’t it?

Emperor’s clothes

I sincerely wonder if this is still read in schools.

I’ve seen it in lots of schools in London. Not read it to a class myself because I teach an age range slightly too old, but down in infants (4-7) I wouldn’t be surprised to see it being read.

That story is best read to teenagers imo. Satire and metaphor go way over young kids' heads. I found it delightful as a 15yo.

I love the story now and often find myself humming the Danny Kaye song whilst reading this sort of shit, that, this song and occasionally this.

These old stories are wonderful as their true meaning is only able to be seen by the wise. The foolish completely miss their meaning much like the Emperor.

When it ends, it's NOT going to be pretty, no matter how.

If it ends because the pendulum shifts...when that pendulum shifts, it's going to shift back REALLY BADLY, in the "and then one day, for NO REASON AT ALL..." sense.

If it ends without the pendulum shifting, it'll end because trans people have so much power that they're no longer the most oppressed people, and as we're starting to see now, then they'll move to pedophiles.

They’re trying really hard right now to change the messaging on sex offenders, that Vice video the other day proves how hard they will lay it on….even when they themselves are being victimised by the very sex offender whose images they’re laundering.

Exactly.

I'm not sure if the reason is "when the dragonslayer has slayed all the dragons, they have to invent new dragons to keep their job", if it's "they're overgrown high schoolers in an era where the oppressed are the cool kids" (it's notable that the only downtrodden sexual minority that no one's willing to fight for are incels...which, by an astonishing coincidence, is the only sexual minority where not being one of the cool kids goes hand in hand with being part of that minority), or if it's some mixture of the two.

The modern version would be "Johnny the Walrus".

Nope. JtW is a decent story, but it’s no where close to The Emperor’s New Clothes.
