I'm surprised to learn about the significant yearning for posthumanism and synthetic sex identity going on. Obviously, most supporting such groups do not want it for themselves, but find it useful for undermining certain cultural practices and regulations while justifying other regulations and subsidies.

“Keep people divided against themselves and they’ll fight against each other instead of uniting to overthrow the system and cause chaos.” Divide and conquer. No need for central planners if there are no problems. Get focus off of politicians’ self-serving activities taking more power.

“Look at how the ‘never-Trump’ Republicans are tripping all over themselves to ‘end drag queen story time." Wouldn't it only be necessary is for parents not to bring their children? Bookstores would change quickly. Or do parents want this for their kids?

Roxy’s evaluation of babies as “useless eaters,” rather than bundles of joy and potentially productive citizens, conflicts with her eagerness to make them “ready to take their place as workers and citizens.” She needs them, properly molded, for a society she can rule, for their own good, yet despises them. So, useless only if independent. Is being a mother seen as simply wasting time or actually counterproductive?

Conundrum. All big companies are clever enough to urge social-political views that favor them and harm small companies, but too stupid to realize that small companies constitute customers for big company services and products? Shooting themselves in the foot? It would seem that prospering small companies would create more sales for big companies. Plus the rising purchasing power of small company employees.

Interesting argument that big business encourages women in the workplace and abortions to keep them there. So, they want more employees, not more customers? Not new generations of customers? Central planning the economy seems confusing. When is it time to produce more babies and when to hold women back? And that’s the “reason the big corporations went all in on gay rights?” But did they not understand that gay couples already did not have babies?

“Fortifying elections” … My search found “multiple initiatives” proposing such things as “citizens should ensure that any election-related information they disseminate is from reliable, verifiable sources, particularly information that casts doubt on the validity of the process.” They never say who is to decide. Just deplatform, cancel, and restrict any deviation from official authorities.

“You’ll find you don’t have to settle for one man.” No reason to, since they will be interchangeable, individuality smothered.

Question. Cassandra of Greek myth prophesied true warnings, but was not believed. Is this Cassandra speaking her true intentions, but people can’t believe it? Or is she talking nonsense, but everyone believes it?

The policy of “no jab, no job” does not seem to contradict the principle of ‘your body, your choice.’ The first is a business decision. The second a moral right.

“Transgenderism is the next stage of human evolution.” “Sexual identity needs to be a matter of personal choice.” Looks like the next stage is going to be ugly . . . both physical appearance and psychology.

Go ahead. I’ll catch up,” Acey assured her mother. “Let me finish my tea and box up my food.”

I would lose my appetite to. Hopefully Acey starts thinking for her self instead of being told what to think by " thought leaders"
