It's weird, isn't it? We all know he's a dude, but there are some people who will literally go apoplectic with rage if you don't participate in social etiquette word salad and pretend to not have a basic grasp of reality so he can have a more satisfying jerk-off session later.

Its postmodernism isn’t it? Don’t postmodernists believe that language literally constructs reality and therefore saying the hairy dude is a dainty schoolgirl makes it actually true and anyone who denies it is not only denying reality but committing a violent act against the “dainty schoolgirl” by denying their existence, thus justifying the kind of response (physical and rhetorical) that used to be reserved for actual physical violence.

They’ve taken the Emperor’s New Clothes and completely misunderstood the morals it is trying to convey.

I think whatever school of thought it coincidentally resembles is a post-hoc rationalization of good old fashioned denial. People just need some kind of framework to justify their insane thoughts otherwise they'd have to admit they were delusional.

There’s definitely a line from postmodern theory to queer theory to men in dresses demanding to be called women.

It’s the intersection of fetish and philosophy.

We are starting to see it spread to other degeneracies, look at the nuclear waste czar and his catalogue of degeneracy, which the media was only too happy to normalise. Look at the fucking police posing for pictures with men in leather dog masks during Pride parades, or the fact that the progressives are trying really fucking hard to get kids involved in drag.

Look how quickly it changed from “we must tolerate” to “we must celebrate”. I fully believe that LGB deserve equal rights, but it’s time they also agreed that that comes with some responsibility, one of which is keeping the degenerate shit in private spaces and away from children, just like the straights should do too.

I don’t think that that’s asking much.
