A critical mass of "Enlightened Stupidity"

People might wonder; About - like, if I'm the chosen of God, what's the kind of stuff I had to say to them, specifically as they glance past what I've written already. As apparently something is yet unclear. Whatever the case, I have it from them that they don't like political correctness - and that they do like people speaking their minds. To say it as it is. Which is why how I justify writing these things in the way I do/did.


Well. Enlightened Stupidity is maybe the wrong way to say it - but, it's stuff like "Abortion is Murder" ... where ... we can see that they're trying to make a point and possibly do believe that they're being really bright - and it's obnoxious in a way that's just ... [need I a word to explain?]. Which to them seems like they broke our minds by being so smart. And sure - on a technicality we can, I suppose, describe abortions as murder and explaining to them that there's something like nuance to that ... that's like ... trying to ride a bicycle that has no wheels.

We might try to be smart and say stuff like ... 'why is it bad, in this case?' - but I'm not confident that they understand redundancy and conflicts when it's their own shit that's off.

But I got to try anyway. It's like ... I'm honorbound to follow in the footsteps of the LORD. Unless I there's like ... a good reason not to - but that's a story for another, hopefully more enlightened, day.


I mean - there's the way atheists make sense of morality. Or 'Good' and 'Evil' for that matter. Something about harm and not doing harm and reducing harm. Like, the most basic kind of stuff.
And yet I'm shocked to find how hard some people grind away at what to me are really just common sense decisions. And it is highlighted really well in a video I partially watched recently - I guess it featured some of those Fresh and Fit dimwhits on Dim Tool - and the subject matter was round about how women shouldn't be allowed to vote. And it's something that has popped up recently - as also on the matter of the eligible voting age. And to some part of the population it will be simple to get behind the picture I'm about to paint here. Where there are people that sit together, deeming themselves the smart ones that are entitled to make the decisions for the rest of us - democratically, but to do so they also have to prevent certain kinds of people from voting. Like women. I mean, sure - most women, I suppose, wouldn't be too thrilled to vote for the "Don't let women vote" party - but those that like to vote for that party don't have to care - because ... they're not asking anyway. They're demanding - as we've seen - to the point of throwing tamper tantrums if things don't go their way. Still.

So, now, why would I care then about what THEY have to say? Thought the jew in 1930's Germany? Or when was it? Well. You get the point.


I mean, I have to make up my own mind and do my own research - and there's a huge overlap between what the Nazis did and what some politically affiliated entities are pushing for. So ... calling them, or comparing them to ... Nazis ... seems to be fair. And while they insist that they're not and are also incredibly offended by us doing so ... . OK. I mean ... here's the thing. They ... uh ... "You" ... might think to be justified because there are reasons ... to say: The abstract past is now a not so abstract present - which means ... what I just said.


But uhm ... here's the thing: Trans issues. So I got to bed a little bit ... smacked down yesterday because I've yet again had too much internet. And there are all these "protect the children" types that seem to have found themselves a niche they feel comfortable in. And the problem with Enlightened Stupidity is, that sometimes a question comes so hard out of left field ... it, sure, in a sense, breaks our wee little minds. Like, there was a clip of that Adam Conover guy on Joe Rogan ... and Joe was like: "So, if a boy wants to be a girl, why can't they just be a girl? Why chemically alter their development?" - something along those lines but pretty much that - and it's like asking: "So, if a dog wants to eat, why can't they just be hungry? Why chemically alter their development?".
Where - I have to admit: As far down my transition I am - dysphoria is barely even an issue anymore. It's a thing of the past, an abstract even. And with that ... I don't care about it all that much anymore, to say, I'm ... distant from the problems of it.

Anyhow. So - I went to bed ... a bit after one too many stupid takes of that manner ... and I had to cuddle up to God for some comfort. And sure, now I see it more clearly. Like, how we're somewhat conditioned to expect a certain kind of stupidity - so we're a bit overwhelmed when the talking points shift a little. As though someone has actually done some thinking; But ... more so into the direction of their own stupidity. And sure. It makes sense. At first there's stubbornness - as in: A resistence to listen to reason, or individually perhaps just an inability to learn of anything in the first place. Then eventually comes a point that makes sense to them ... in that echochamber of theirs ... and everyone else, outside of it, is like: Err ... no sorry! The Earth still isn't flat! Where at some point people just give up being up to date about what the most recent evolution of the brainworm is - and yet somehow that only seems to embolden them even further.

Maybe there is no hope for that to change anytime soon - but, I'll take it as such: Any issue that people care deeply about is something worth looking into - properly - so in due time it's like ... the curtains can be dropped and common sense restored or solidified or unified somehow.


So, let's say a parent has a child that expresses trans-sexual desires. Say, they say they want to be a Boy or a Girl, whatever. Now, everyone understands that there has to be a reason for that. Conservatives for instance happen to think that it's a fad. Or perhaps just a flight of fancy. And while that isn't 'knowledge' - we still say that it's the right of the parents to decide. Conservatives certainly insist on it saying that Kids can't make their own choices - and yet they seem to have issues with parents that take these expressions more seriously.

So, those other parents then take their kids to a doctor who prescribes them hormone blockers and qeues them up for a sex re-assignment surgery; Starting with chopping of tits that aren't even there yet, apparently.
Well ... no!
The thing is that as far as I can tell ... Germany isn't the only place where there's more of a process to that. Sure have I also heard that some countries went back a little to reconsider the viability of how that process is set up - but still there is one. And that's also a word I want to linger on here: Process.
The first big step of that process is called 'social transition'. The person will choose or receive a name of their chosen gender, respectively using the appopriate pronouns and dressing up accordingly. Here I'll say that grown ups are far more likely to get it into their heads to cheat on the system and push through this stage as far as possible. Yet is this just the simple thing. So, if there's anything holed/bottled up inside that wants out - as trans people do remember of their childhood - it can come out. In that regard there's a chance - just overall - that the kid 'is' 'actually' trans and that this social transition will come with some improvements to their mood or social participation or whatever it may be. As, possibly, there's a chance for the opposite. And so, after some time, there's an amount of data based on which an educated decision can be made. As for ... how to proceed. Now, I will say about that, that ... I agree that hormone blockers might not be the best choice - and that going full HRT might be the better choice. So, if you're at all concerned about puberty. However - because I also think that surgery isn't possible because quite frankly there isn't enough meat one way or the other just yet - it's still going to be tainted somehow. So ... yea. At any rate ... would this be something that the affected people would have to speak out about ... once they are of an age and willingness to do so.

So, there's a process. If it's adequate, what it should entail - that is sure worth talking about. But, this extreme lack of insight concerning this matter has it, that the discussion seems to imply that there ought to be only one outcome to this process. That the parents have to say 'no' - under any circumstance whatsoever. So that effectively there is no process - and quite frankly: That attitude is what'd take us back towards conversion therapy. To "brute force" "the queer" out of them. Which is considered to be torture ... btw..


So, all of this "woke panic" nonsense certainly doesn't help creating a healthy atmosphere for taking a considerate look and stance towards these things - and quite frankly ... it's annoying and exhausting. And those that think that it's good ... that we're tired and exhausted ... certainly don't know what they're talking about - because if they do ... they deserve to be skinned and cooked alive and their heads impaled onto stakes in front of some special place we yet have to figure out. (Because their agenda is to consciously, willingly, actively make people's life worse. For whatever reason.)


Peace!
