There are two communities I've watched closely which have been historical enablers of this cultural revolution to end up being its Dantons. Feminism and the progressive Jewish intelligentsia. In both cases they've received rude awakenings and elicited my sympathy, but are still locked in playing the "double game". In other words they want to defeat the proximate threat (gender ideology and anti-zio-semitism respectively) but not win the war too well so as to not disestablish the base underlying ideologies and structures.

For example I've supported the RadFems in their fighting the good fight they are clearly wanting to roll trans back just far enough to re-establish the legitimate women's rights trashed by that movement - but keep the base ideology that allows selective claiming or denying sex differences whichever happens to be advantageous in the right context. They want to limit examination of bogus constructs just before they tackle alleged patriarchy, toxic masculinity etc.

The same example can be drawn for the other group - and there is no relish I feel in making these observations.

This is the best explanation I have ever read of the seemingly all-encompassing horror of our current situation. I have re-stacked (a first for me). This deserves the widest possible circulation.
