As DEI and transgender ideology spread through our institutions, we ought to ask why such a small minority is being allowed to dominate our discourse and culture. I summarize the factors as cowardice, groundless morality, and isolation.
There are some brave people. Riley Gains for example & there will be pushback. I think the reason mentally ill trannies are seemingly everywhere is these stories sell click bait etc. Drivers slow down to stare at accidents.
This is a skillful diagnosis of society’s disordered moral compass — or rather, distinct lack thereof. I particularly appreciate the point that people genuinely want to do the right thing. Not only does it help us understand where they’re coming from, it also helps us to estimate the potency of their beliefs. Since an earnest belief that you’re doing the right thing can, as you illustrate, be wildly dangerous when based on the wrong sense of morality. I think CS Lewis said something of the tyranny of good intentions.
I was born in 1959, at a time when dedication to family was the absolute norm. Divorce was nearly unheard of, and whispered about when it did happen. Abortion was seen for the evil act that it truly is, although there were whisperings about this occurring as well. There was a real shift when the women's liberation movement went mainstream. That, together with gays suddenly appearing in parades in 1970s San Francisco, marked the beginning of a real shift. A shift that has gained steam ever since, and manifests itself today in evil ways that one could not have foreseen in those idyllic days in suburbia of the early 1960s.
Oh, I couldn’t agree more. A great and beautiful American city. California is an amazing place, it will always be in my heart. It’s broken my heart to see what’s happened to my home town. I pray for the Christians there every day.
Let's remember that "minority power" works both ways. John Adams estimated that only a third of the American colonists were in favor of secession. And even better, never forget the Battle of Covadonga, where King Alphonso and eleven of his knights defeated a numerically superior force of Moslem trrops in the mountain passes of northern Spain, starting the Reconquista. Santiago!
This is an eternal problem and many experiments have proved this . If a person who is perceived to be in authority , if they direct a very large number of people, individually or collectively, they will conform to carry out instruction from torcher all the way through to murder. For instance Doctors and nurses in the Covid injection period or even more so the T4 programme in Germany in 1939.
As most of your reader are based in the USA they may have not seen or read the book
" Tom Brown's school Days " , it describes this situation and how to deal with. it is a classical very moral story.
Wikipedia is so woke & leftist that one of its founders started a competitor, Metapedia. The meta in the name has nothing to do with Facebook. As with evil Google, I refuse to use Wikipedia for anything & will not click on a link to it.
I would just put out there that while isolation matters, it shouldn't matter for anyone who is brave and has a grounded morality. Rather, it matters for effectiveness/outcome, but consequences in the world don't matter to a grounded person who is governing their passions and acting with reason.
Loved the article and your courage to tell the truth. We need to " Stand and deliver." It is time, no , it is long overdue to stop allowing a small percentage of the population to speak for the majority.. We need to grow spines and stand and deliver.

I grew up in the 90s in San Francisco and it’s been fascinating and heartbreaking to discover this trajectory in retrospect. It’s my Roman Empire.
And the thing is, I love SF. Have some adventuresome memories. A majestic setting like nowhere else in the entire World.

Just an aside, will the Canadians stand and fight against this, where is their red line ?

I hadn't heard of this book. I just bought it on eBay. Thank you for this information.
It also helps that they lie and cover up the insanity that is unleashed, like a pneumonia.

It’s just the way I feel!

I'm not so sure they're out numbered.
Fantastic image of isolated people
Do women generally feel being alone with more unhappiness then men?
Very good commentary!

Crusader Gal.... Fight on.
