The Pushback against Leftism

There more to it though. Its deliberate trans bashing for a reason.

If those on the right/far right keep talking about trans issues its a deliberate ploy. They know talking about trans issues causes lots of fights and a distraction to all the huge economic inequalities in the world.

They know trans people are a small enough minority that struggle to fight back too. Thats why they coopt the useful idiots cis lgb people and feminists too.

Its all to cause division amongst the broad progressive left and distract from all negative effects of right wing economic policy.

there are though:

so, first point conceded then?

just now, when I googled "school uniform tartan white socks" (the bottom half anyway)...

I wonder, what look was he going for, if it wasn't school uniform inspired

As predicted folks he completely abandoned his previous auxtrage

What school girl uniform involves a print tee?

not at all, just passing time

THEY SAID NO COMMENT

So I recenly listening to someone talk on left vs right wing ideaologies.

Now granted most of this is stemming from America and spreading like a virus but what was talked about I thought has some value.

Historically you have had people with conservative right of centre ideas and all that entails all the way to extreme right wing. Then you have liberal left of centre ideas all the way to radical left . The balance used to be to debate these ideas and let the "good ideas" win out!

The issue we see today means none of this happens!

We have two cults that really do not care what the other has to say.

The cults spend more time in their own echo chambers becoming more and more extreme aruging over their own ideas.

On the right you have anti-science conspiricy thinking loonatics

On the left you have dragon slayers redefining rules making logic impossible.

The push back on the left is primaily due to the notion that liberalism use to be associated with progressive thinking but both cults are now regressive and the middle has been removed!

Indeed, who gets oppressed by Liberalism ?

This sort of reframing is disingenuous, the right have had control of the thrust of economic development since the 1960's - they have been highly successful in making anything but Neo-Liberalism unacceptable to even contemplate. The problem is it has failed to deliver on its promises but has dragged the whole political spectrum to the right. The re-framing is an attempt to claim that the extremes of the NeoLiberal failure are somehow matched by people who espouse a social democratic liberal model - a model which has actually delivered social stability and steady economic growth in all the countries who have adhered to it. There is almost no far-left parties in power in the western world and yet they are the source of the general social collapse we see in developed countries. Its pathetic pseudo intellectualism from closet right wingers.

1,000,000 Irish starved to death duing the famine at the hands of what was considered a very liberal government who thought that the "free-market" should not be interfered with by government.

You have a confusion going on there - free market thinks are the opposite of Liberal thinkers. You confuse Libertarian with liberal - two entirely different beasts.

There isn't?

The gender pay gap is a real push of equality of outcome, something almost every leader in the free world has talked about.

Or is this a straw-man also?

This and previous similar posts are not your insights rather just the way you wish to spin the whole thing.

First of all as to why trans is popping up all the time these days is because there are multiple issues around it and subsequently multiple issues reported in the press regularly that keeps the discussions going.. Sport, transition surgery, what is taught in schools, women's spaces inc toilets and prisons, the platforming of drag queens to kids, the infighting that goes in the gay world, the promotion of multiple genders, the promotion of multiple sex's, gender fluidity aka gender ideology. Surely I've forgotten something, oh yes, GR cert no questions asked. To say that this is all a distraction from other issues is laughable nonsense as some I see are saying now.

All people like you do is frame this as a right wing backlash but the vast majority of members of the LGBA are not right wing. Those orgs consistently say this isn't a left/right thing at all. Tough luck if the right join in, the left certainly have as well.

When I posted that BBC podcast all I got back almost instantly was who's to say they're not a Lesbian as if to say gawd you're so narrow minded you must be a right wing fascist, and that reaction is because youz are all just right wing fascist hunting and have no intention of thinking about anything in any depth because that would get in the way of your MO. That tactic is not getting you anywhere so fire away.

On your second paragraph people will not accept that people are born into the wrong body and neither do they accept that transition surgery changes anyone's sex, so shoot them. Everything stems from that. It has nothing to do with ickyness though the fact you mention that seems to indicate you feel some ickness yourself. And isn't ickyness a natural reaction rather than a though process like being turned off rotting food etc. So totally natural (not a popular idea these days I know), not any indication of anything else.

No I sit on the left politically I am not opposed to liberal ideas my argument is that the stupidy by the left is making things worse not better!

People are making it less inclusive and less diverse... I wrote a whole bit on it, cults and echo chambers...

The left thinks it's fighting the "right"... It's not it's just fighting with itself.

Are you not othering the left with this statement and furthering the echo chambers?
