Déjà Vu ~ Times: Are You TransFauxbic?

Are You TransFauxbic?

Take the assessment:

□ You watched Matt Walsh's “What is a Woman?”¹ and could hardly believe what some “experts” claimed to be real.
□ You think pretending that men and women are physically / biologically interchangeable is a “bridge too far” removed from science, history, and common sense.
□ You sensed that most of the documentary “experts” were more committed to pscience² than science.
□ You sympathize with those suffering gender-dysphoria but wonder why none of the so-called affirming “experts” seemed to remember where gender-dysphoria is defined: The Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, Fifth Edition (DSM-5).³
□ You think that blaming non-affirming persons for violence against trans-persons is false attribution, unsupported by evidence.
□ You consider the flippant dismissal of detrans numbers and of trans-regret is deceptive.⁴
□ You consider the pretense that money is not a prime motivator for many trans-affirming “experts” to be mendacious.
□ You believe that social contagion⁵ is real and you object to the pretense that it is not real (or is only minimally real), as it relates to the explosion of gender-dysphoria.
□ You think pretending that minors (or Munchhausen⁶ parents) have the maturity to seek mutilating, irreversible surgery is irresponsible, unethical, and possibly criminal.

NOTE: There are people with genuine gender-dysphoria-diagnosis but there are also people and powers intent on using others' pain to further agendas of power, gain, glory, and domination. There are plenty of faux-affirmers, infiltrators, and servitors pretending to care, but who, at core, are only seeking to sow division, hatred; disorder, disruption, and destruction; seeking to force a tyranny of make-believe, pretense, and faux-equality that, in consequence, denies the feelings, security, rights, and opportunities of biological women and girls (an age-old, misogynistic fact). Surely, the feelings, security, rights, and opportunities of gender-disphorics can be accommodated without pretending that the feelings, security, rights, and opportunities of majorities must take lesser place and priority! Surely, we can figure this out without resorting to forcing endless tyrannies of compelled thought, speech, and concession.

If you agree with most of the above, you probably transcend what is faux.⁷ You may share the realities described by JBP:

2. Pscience is the corrupted offshoot of honorable Science. It is the inevitable consequence of man's obsessive pursuit and protection of power, gain, glory, and domination. Pscience is pseudo, psychopathic, propagandizing, plagiarizing, psy-opic, and above all, profit-obsessed, and profit-driven. This obsessive pursuit and protection by people without conscience is often enabled by naïve, trusting, or fear-filled acolytes and servitors. Pscience is a one-faith, one-dogma, heretic-fearing, self-deceiving, other-censoring system.

(Subject to change over time: experience/learning/ evidence)

▪ Life is a three-act drama with pre-mortal, mortal, and post-mortal stages.
▪ The second act boils us down toward test one:^[1] the test of power.
▪ Abusers of power lose it in Act Three when justice and equity take the bench.
▪ Tipping points happen—over time and a fulcrum.
▪ Motes and beams are everywhere.[2]
▪ Folly is a shadow of every ism, including capitalism.
▪ Money talks louder than morals—all the way to the tipping point.
▪ The direction you are facing, matters.[3]
▪ Extremism in the defense of liberty is extremism.[4]
▪ When the blind follow the blind, it is time to blow the whistle.[5]
▪ Opposites attract the same lobbyists.
▪ Solon of Athens espoused, “Nothing in excess;” laissez-faire capitalists pursue “Everything in excess” (except the costs of gross profit).
▪ “Simplify” displayed on the counter-top of a new 21,000 sq. ft. home does not compute.
▪ High fructose corn syrup is not the staff of life. Unfortunately, sweets can twirl your teeth.
▪ Revolving doors between government and business do not admit sufficient fresh air.
▪ The common good doesn’t seem to be very common.
▪ N. American football is a testosterone pageant in tights.[6]
▪ Exploitation is a delusion of grandeur. Stewardship is a grander conclusion.
▪ The excesses of major religions occur when members fail their espoused values. The excesses of ideological tyrannies occur when tyrants act upon theirs.[7]
▪ Praise is best deflected toward God.
▪ Too many who say, “I do, I do,” don’t.
▪ Electronic media has become the Roman Coliseum of the 21st Century.
▪ The First Law of Attraction[8]: the Devil is more obsessed with persons striving to do and be good than with persons who are not.
▪ The trans-rational[9] is beyond most of us, so if it’s “turtles all the way down,”[10] maybe it is “revelation all the way up.”[11]
▪ Egoism accounts for 80% of human problems. The remaining 27% lies with rhetoric and propaganda.

In the near words of Groucho Marx, “These are my [views]; if you don’t like them, I have others.”

[1] New Testament: Matt. 4:2-4—The first temptation presented to Jesus, to misuse His power to satisfy self-interest/-will/-gratification.
[2] Ref: Matthew 7:3-5
[3] Old Testament: Jer. 32:33
[4] A Barry Goldwater phrase “Extremism in the defense of liberty is no vice. And moderation in the pursuit of justice is no virtue.” A phrase applauded by some of the GOP. (Suggestion: reverse liberty and justice to see if it sounds more palatable, or is the latter half merely castor-oil for the first?)
[5] Ref: Matthew 15:14
[6] Observation of a friend, MS, who wishes to remain anonymous for obvious reasons.
[7] Ref: Ravi Zacharias
[8] Ref: Adam & Eve; Biblical Job; Jesus in the Wilderness; CS Lewis’ Screwtape Letters, etc., etc., etc.
[9] Ref: Flatland by Edwin Abbott. In summary, circles, squares and other flatlanders can’t get a fix on spheres and cubes; can’t quite reason themselves into the properties of those in 3-D space. Enlightenment of things beyond (i.e., trans-) Flatland takes condescension from those above & beyond. Any parallels here in 3-D?
[10] Google this phrase if you have not heard of it. It’s just one way of saying we don’t have a rational explanation for some things.
[11] Conditional on the will of the Revelator and the willingness/ ability of the revelatee to receive.

No Comments Rationale

1) Time & more needful priorities;
2) Problems observed with many open-comment blogs as so bluntly expressed at http://www.ritholtz.com/blog/comment-policy/ ;

3) People are free to post divergent or convergent views on their own blogs;
4) Learning from comments here would be preferable, but— (see 1, 2, & 3).
