So proud of themselves

Smart move – admitting guilt in writing in public.

6 of us released about 6,000 crickets into hate group LGB Alliance’s annual conference. The result of the conference, if it had gone ahead as planned, would have been an acceleration of transphobic hate and misinformation, which drives much of the attack on our healthcare and our dignity.

We are so proud of ourselves for ending their spewing of violent hate…

Couple of things.

One, why release 6 thousand crickets? To disrupt the conference, yes, but why that way? It’s such a bad look, in so many ways. Squalid, stupid, cruel, messy, farcical, random…

I don’t know, maybe that makes it a good fit. Trans itself is random. It’s not like other uprisings of subordinated people. Knowing what sex people are isn’t a form of subordination, and neither is refusing to pretend people are the sex they’re not. Recognition of reality isn’t a form of oppression or injustice. The demands of trans ideology are random so maybe the methods of enforcement might as well be random too.

The second thing is just the usual obvious “No, wrong, no, that’s not what it is.” It’s not “transphobic hate and misinformation” to say that men are not women; there is no attack on their healthcare or their dignity (they attack their own dignity); there is no “spewing of violent hate.” Formulaic babble is formulaic babble, and persuades only the terminally credulous.
