The entire point of the contemporary “alphabet soup” movement is to eliminate the sense of “normal”, to remove any notion of “typical”, and delete concepts of “standard” or “traditional”. The Queer political ideology can’t attack hetero-normativity and the nuclear family head-on (at least publicly), so they promote any and every alternative they can possibly envision, while demonizing anyone and everyone who disagrees with their statements. It’s a masterstroke of rhetorical positioning to admit the ideal exists, but promote “acceptable alternatives” until the notion of “ideal” carries no social weight.

The goal is to eliminate the distinctiveness between male and female in order to destabilize culture and society - the ardent agitators believe the pro-male-vs-female-social order is the fault of capitalism, and they seek to replace capitalism with The Marxist Utopia (tm). It may sound ridiculous, but Queer activists genuinely believe Marx was philosophically correct his proposed solutions for social ills: elimination of all private property, including spouses and children.

I also noticed the prevalence of obese people in my city’s Pride parade. The only truly attractive, edgy-looking people (who reminded me of 80s gay men) had been hired by a hotel to dance to music on the sidewalk and make the hotel look like the cool center of things.

Trans already attracts students who don’t fit in with the popular kids. From what I’ve seen, these are often kids who don’t know how to play the social games of people their age, like my son, and like me when I was younger. I guess we call that a symptom of autism now. I think that label is overused, but whatever. I hope that as more middle school aged kids start calling themselves trans, it will become cringey for older kids, like wearing the color neon green or Messi t-shirts.

As an aside, I just read that J.B. Pritzker is considered a presidential contender for 2028. Can anyone imagine what would happen with pediatric transition under a Pritzker White House?!
