'Argument' isn't necessarily the right word, I don't think.

Their whole conception of what it means to be a trans person is rooted in the same unfalsifiable beliefs that drive most of organised religion. This essentially boils down to

I just know that [I'm actually a woman in a man's body / God exists]. I feel it.

And years of being told that subjective experience is off-limits to criticism or probing questions has lead to this belief being accepted unquestioningly.

ArthnoldManacatsaman · 2021-01-26T15:39:36+00:00

To be honest, I agree with you.

I was never very active in the gender critical / LGB parts of Reddit. I moderated a couple of subreddits around niche interests, and for the brief period where I was part of Reddit (about two years) I was a very active Redditor, spending hours every day falling down this rabbit hole or that rabbit hole. If you avoided the default subs, you could get away from divisive US (let's be honest) politics. Looking at peoples' collections of fountain pens, or discussing why my croissants were chewy, or asking what language that sign in the back of that film was in were all excellent ways to while away the time.

I noticed that this all changed in around February 2020. The US election was doing whatever it does at that time of year (Caucuses? Primaries? Town hall? Whatever the first stage is called) and things were not going well for Bernie Sanders. Reddit, apparently, couldn't hack that. Couple that with the escalating COVID-19 pandemic, and you had a perfect storm of political bullshit, and it was everywhere.

Donald Trump is single-handedly murdering American citizens, but if Bernie had been president not a single American would have died or lost their job, poverty would be eradicated and American citizens of all classes, creeds and colours would have joined arms in a spirit of brotherhood and danced in a circle around the Capitol building singing 'All you need is love.'

Okay, /u/FeelTheBern2020, but I came here to talk about The Booker Prize winners. I don't care about Trump, keep that in the politics-aligned subreddits, please.

LOL Karen can't get a haircut why is she protesting in the middle of a pandemic what a selfish fat hick look at those DOMESTIC TRRRISTS outside the Michigan (?) capitol building they should all be shot why arent the police arresting them

Then, of course, George Floyd died and Reddit went into full All Cops are Bastards, Riots are the language of the Unheard, Property can be replaced but lives can't, woke meltdown. Rioting was valorised as a noble act, speaking truth to power. Burning down a police station (regardless of whether people were inside or not) was perfectly acceptable under the circumstances.

Don't post about it on social media, otherwise the pigs will know where you are! Let's cordon off an area of Seattle and secede from the United States so we can create the Black Utopia this is all in service of. The deaths of nineteen people, thousands of arrests and literally billions of dollars in property damage are all perfectly justifiable as long as I agree with the people doing it.

The notion that protesting during a pandemic was selfish very quickly evaporated.

But what's this?

Some right-wing people are using the 'fiery but mostly peaceful' protests as cover to cause trouble? This is outrageous. These 'peaceful protests' have been taken over by white supremacists, and all the rioting was their fault! Rioting is wrong! Destruction of black-owned business is wrong! People I don't agree with aren't allowed to riot!

And then came the purge, and my last fuck about Reddit went up in the smoke of that police station.

In answer to your question, I don't know what caused Reddit to turn into the cesspit that it is today. It's possible that funding from Tencent contributed to that, but the amount of anti-China bullshit that was floating around there would seem to suggest otherwise.

I think Reddit, like other platforms (Facebook, Twitter etc.) felt empowered to take ownership of the public square.

ArthnoldManacatsaman · 2021-01-23T20:08:21+00:00

Or usually they give a lazy response like:

The science is out there if you just bother to look for it.

This may well be true, but the best writing in articles or books or whatever gives some sources they're referring to and allows the reader to make up their own mind. It's also just good practice. Saying 'it's there if you just look for it' is completely meaningless, because with one click on 'all' on Saiddit I can find any number of articles explaining, in the greatest of detail, why any and all Covid vaccines actually contain microchips that allow Bill Gates to track you, or that the riot at the capital was an inside job perpetrated by a perfidious cabal of devil-worshipping paedophile Zionists. Anything is out there if you 'look for it' - you're gonna have to be more specific, dear.

Or

It's not my job to educate you.

While I can sometimes sympathise with this statement, it usually sounds better (which is a strong word, let's be honest) when it comes from people who haven't chosen to make something the axis of their identity and then refuses to answer questions on it. If my colleague, Fatima, is frequently pestered with questions about Islam, I can understand if she gets a little impatient and tells people to back off. If Fatima went around audibly pointing at people and calling their behaviour haram and started acting a bit like the Saudi Morality Police, her refusal to answer (what I assume are) good-faith questions about why she believes what she believes or behaves the way she does would be grating at best. If you don't want people to ask, stop making yourself the centre of attention.

I would make a terrible parent.

I don't think I'd ever be willing to make the necessary sacrifices (financial, temporal, etc.) in order to give a child the environment and upbringing that they would need.

And as someone once told me, a child is the one thing you can't renege on. You can sell a house, quit a job, leave a partner or move to another country but you can never 'give back' a child if you change your mind.

And in a way I think it's good that I know this about myself now. I would rather be aware of the things that would make me a terrible parent and not have to inflict that on a child than have a child (however that would work) and realise only too late.

ArthnoldManacatsaman · 2021-01-16T23:32:37+00:00

'They' is seen as an impersonal personal pronoun, which can be used to refer to people in vague, non-specific ways:

In Japan they drive on the left.

which is likely what happens when people use 'they' when referring to things like 'OP' in Reddit threads. There's also no way of explicitly knowing someone's sex on Reddit threads, so it's likely a reflex to refer to 'OP' using 'they'.

ArthnoldManacatsaman · 2021-01-15T18:40:42+00:00

If you changed the colours of the balls, so that the one on the left was painted in the colours of the trans flag and the one on the right was painted in the colours of the 'original' gay pride flag, I wonder how many people in the comments would be defending personal choice.

Well your snotty tone was unnecessary. We do 'basic algebra' in high school, we don't need to take classes at university level.

ArthnoldManacatsaman · 2021-01-13T15:58:34+00:00

It's so odd to me that you have all these random requirements. As a friend of mine memorably put it:

I'm doing an English degree, not building a house. Why do I need to take algebra?

Here you have to decide on a course of study at about the age of 15, which brings its own slew of problems, certainly, because you have to choose what to study in the final two years of high school. Not all subjects are compulsory in our equivalent of grades 12 and 13, so if you want to study chemistry or music at university you have to study chemistry and music during those two years.

So when you apply to universities you apply to the chemistry / music programmes at those universities, who then do the whole admissions thang and let you in or reject you, usually based on your predicted grades in those subjects. So, if you don't get the grades, no university for you.

(I realise you didn't ask about any of this but I'm here now...)

Once you actually get to university all of your classes will be related to chemistry or music. You might have space for 'elective' modules in your first year where you can study something unrelated to your degree, but even those are limited and will have their own separate entry requirements - it's not a free for all.

If, as some do, you realise 'oh, shit, I don't actually feel as passionately about covalent bonds as I thought I do, I'd like to do music instead' you'd have a very hard time moving from a chemistry degree to a music degree, you'd have to drop out and start the whole process over again.

ArthnoldManacatsaman · 2021-01-13T12:54:03+00:00

I'm guessing you're in North America, since my university experience didn't (and conceivably never could) involve taking classes in such disparate fields as Spanish, engineering, welding, and costuming. Always found that 'mix and match' aspect of the NA higher education systems really interesting.

My undergraduate study was completed before the cult of Wokery had really infiltrated campuses - over here at any rate, we're always a little behind the United States - and I didn't study anything particularly concerned with social justice anyway, so managed to escape the worst excesses of the nonsense.

It's interesting to note that the sciences don't set much store by this gender nonsense, but then I suppose that's not entirely surprising. Scientists by the very nature wouldn't have a great deal of time for things that cannot be measured, or do not conform to objective, verifiable reality.

'Look into it' is not an adequate answer when someone asks you to expand on a point you make, much less so such a bold claim that Israel had a hand in the Chinese 'Maoist revolution'.

Secondly, what is the 'Maoist revolution'? Do you mean the Communist Revolution off the back of the Chinese Civil War in 1949? Or do you mean the cultural revolution in the late 60s and early 70s?

Or, more likely, are you just a typical Saidit cretin who wants to pin everything on ThE JeWs?

I think most children intuitively know when they haven't earned something.

The key word in that sentence is 'most'. Most children, as you said, would probably just smile meekly and accept their worthless award that they know they didn't earn, but some children lack the self-awareness to feel embarrassed by that, and would genuinely think 'Wow, I am so good at the egg and spoon race!'

ArthnoldManacatsaman · 2020-12-13T22:44:09+00:00

It all boils down to a lack of nuance. Wokesters don't understand nuance. Two excellent competing quotes are:

The line between good and evil cuts through the heart of every human being.

Life is a battle between good people an evil people.

Hua Mulan doesn't join the army because she feels duty bound to, she joins the army because joining the army is what men do and is therefore a man.

She doesn't dress as a man because, as you rightly point out, what choice did she have, she just likes wearing mens' clothes, and looming war with the norther barbarians is a perfect time to have a trans awakening.

'Be a man' and 'I'll make a man out of you' aren't (perhaps a little outdated) metaphors for 'masculine' traits like bravery or courage in the face of the enemy, they mean that 'I'll literally make you into an adult human male, with my 4th century trans ray'.

I'd like to paraphrase something I read somewhere:

Patriarchy tells us only men can join the army and fight.

Feminism tells us that anyone can join the army and fight.

Woke tells us that whoever joins the army and fights must be men.

These people are, as you rightly suggest, nuts.

Quite. It would be one thing if it were illegal to serve both genderspecials and LGB people, but to pick and choose between one and the other isn't cool.

Well gosh, I bet the US government are kicking themselves that they didn't get to you.

All hail the new leader of the free world, who didn't drink the kool-aid.

Can I steal the 'Vodka?/Yes!/Please' for future use? That's genius.

If their subreddit survey had said

Option 1: Woman

Option 2: Trans-woman

they would have been banned.

I, too, don't really understand why people do this, and I take umbrage at the implication that I'm uneducated. I've spent a lot of time and money on my (formal) education, Don'T InVALidAtE mE BiTch.

But, from things I have read in other parts of the internet, and what people have told me, I gather the dismissiveness comes from a concept they like to call 'emotional labo[u]r'.

As I understand it, what this means is that being special (or black, or a woman or whatever, basically anyone who isn't a straight, white, cis, man) is exhausting and they don't have the energy to answer your questions because just existing in this white, cis-hetero-patriarchal society is a struggle enough, it's not their job to raise you from your ignorance AS WELL as just navigating the world.

This is, of course, nonsense. If you choose to make yourself a queer pomodorosexual non-binary trans otherkin of colour, and this is how you present yourself to the world, you don't get to roll your eyes when people ask you questions in good faith about what any of that nonsense actually means. Fair enough if someone is taking the piss, but if it's a genuine request for information, then you shouldn't just brush this stuff off.

I don't know. I don't want to have one rule for me, one rule for thee. These people are human, and being bombarded with questions about sexuality / gender identity or whatever could certainly be grating. But then my advice would be think very carefully about how you present yourself to the world.

Forgive me for not taking sex tips from someone who offers 'anime / video game astrology content'.

History month and pride month are two separate things? For God's sake.

A recent exchange I had:

Him: Why does your profile say [my age]?

Me: Because I'm [my age]? How old did you think I am?

Him: Honestly like at least twice that. blocks me

Still haven't come down from that self-esteem high.
