There is absolutely an enemy at the gates. Its an insidious enemy a cultural cloud that has young and even old adults claiming unearned moral virtue for no purpose. Defending 'victims' who are not asking to be so patronised. Claiming victim status themselves on ludicrously slender grounds (they are actually Koala's and no-one understands them), blaming history, blaming men, blaming the institutions whose protections they enjoy, blaming anything and anyone for the hard realities of life. Blame blame blame. The enemy is called narcissism and a large number of left wingers are corrupted to the core with it. Its blame culture and it is all around. Anything so that they do not have to take responsibility themselves and become a creative productive force in the world. Yes there is obscene in-equality, its a hard reality. Want to do something, stop bleating, do something. Become a bitcoin expert, build an ethical co-operative company, do something - whining helps zero people and butters no parsnips.

James. You should develop a view on gender and as many people call it trans.

How this issue has come to the front of our social discourse is beyond me. Just let these people be themselves and move on. Free speech and allowing people to live their lives in peace.

[@Odilwerk]

Because the 1% of the 1% of trans that push the agenda is constantly paraded by modern tabloid 'journalists' such as Piers as the norm. Like his contemporaries, Piers is divisive for a few reasons, partly to stay relevant, he has an ego at odds with his intellectual inferiority complex, but first and foremost he does it to make money. It'd be easier if everyone just tuned out yes. The fact they don't, and the echo chamber of BS continues whilst distracting people from real, major issues is the reason why it's important to look at this head-on and actively engage as James does here to highlight how ridiculous it is. It's the only way to put a stop to it. At the end of the day, it's potentially dangerous.

[@AnArChRiStxseditio]

It is at the front of discourse because the bigots cannot hate on most minorities any more without serious consequences so they settled on the T's and continue rehashing the same slurs that were used 50 years ago.

Piers pretending to care about women’s rights is one of the most hilarious moments I’ve ever seen. A decade ago he would’ve been the first to use the sobriquet of “FemiNazi” and now he’s jumping on the feminist bandwagon, not because he cares about equality, but because insulting the Trans community is more amusing to him.

[@HeidiSholl]

I think half of the issue with the things like "not being allowed to use the word girls" or "removing the egg from a salad emoji" is that, no one from either of these communities has asked for this. I can't think of a single person I know who is part of the trans community, who would want people to stop calling girls girls generally. What they probably asked for, if they asked for anything at all, was for the language to be gender inclusive in things like general letters, or reports. Or perhaps there is a trans child at that school who wanted to be respected as such and not constantly be referred to as a "girl". I would be a bit hurt if I were still in school and my mum got a letter saying "your son", but wouldn't mind if they said "your child". Same with the egg, you might have 5 people who complained about the egg, or perhaps they said "it would be nice if we had a salad without an egg", but realistically I can't imagine a vegan caring all that much about an emoji. They're more concerned about things like battery farms. These are examples of people in positions of authority making decisions without actually properly consulting the people they think they're helping. And, honestly, the amount of letters I got that said "your son/daughter" in school infuriated me. This was years ago, before I knew anything about trans issues, and I just couldn't understand why they didn't just say "your child", and save on the ink. Having a more neutral approach to these things wouldn't hurt anyone, and might even save you a £1 in printing.
