Single Sided Coins Abound

Words of wisdom passed down from generation to generation stated ‘a coin has two sides.’ While there are many ways this saying may be interpreted, this author primarily subscribes to the idea that ‘every situation can be looked at in more then one way.’ This article will show the myopic and self-serving nature of the people who are championing the many topics making up the current social conversations.
 
Gender Obscuration:
For many years the terms man/male and woman/female were for the most part interchangeable within their own group; outside of the medical world and within the application of the law. Over the course of the last few decades the terms sex and gender, which were once publically blurred, have been uncoupled thus leading to some very flexible arguments.
 
When these arguments and talking points on gender are concatenated, a number of holes rise to the surface of the over all messaging. For example; when ‘gender is a spectrum’ is couple with ‘toxic masculinity’; whichever gender is masculine adjacent must be 90% toxic on a scale from one to ten, and the next one is 80% toxic and so on. This author finds it most interesting that none of the multiple genders on this spectrum are willing to take up their position along that spectrum line between man and woman.
 
Perhaps, the gender spectrum is just a poor description for gender pigeons where everyone is jockeying for their own pigeon hole, so as not to be on the outside of the flock, thus leaving only normal men and women out on the edge.
 
Sex Muddling:
Typically the word sex is used to describe the difference the male and the female of each species that exchange some spermazoa and some form of egg(s) for the purpose of reproduction.  Sex, still under the noun genre is also the generic term given to the act of copulation. Moving on sex as a verb, the word sex is used to describe the act of determining what the ‘sex’ of an animal is.
 
Historically speaking, in times of revolution, the degendering of the population has been used to homogenize or obscure the sex/gender of the individual. This was done during the French Revolution (1789-1799), the Russian Revolution (1917-1923), China’s Great Leap Forward (1958-1960), and The Khmer Rouge uprising (1975-1979). The reader should note that as time progressed, both communications and travel improved with each passing revolt.
 
After the Khmer Rouge uprising, everyone in America was on guard against the infiltration of Communism. Of course by that time it was too late for America as the path towards Marxism had already been set. The next step in explaining the current cultural chaos is that America did what America does best - exporting its culture; for it is said that when the USA catches a cold, the whole world sneezes.
 
Marxism Mixing:
Das Kapitial – Critique of Political Economy, a book by Karl Marx published in 1867, is understood by most to be the founding document for Communism. This book is critical of capitalism as it was understood at the time. The reader should recall that in the 19th century, the most prominent form of Capitalism was the age of the Robber Barron capitalists. This author can understand how Marx was critical crony capitalism as Marx was seeing the eventual installation as the Robber Barons as a new ruling class.
 

Many of the small but highly vocal groups entrenched within Western society at the time of this writing claim to be Marxists. Yet time and time again it can be noted that the leaders of these groups take the donations and live out their lives in excess. The irony of the current implementation is that these modern day Marxists are accepting monies and asking for favours from the current day Robber Barons such as Twitter, Face Book, Alphabet, and Amazon.

 
Perceived Power:
Nature abhors a vacuum and human being’s understand that power is part of every society’s hierarchy and that hierarchies are inevitable is every society. Power can be real or perceived and typically the same goal of having power can be reached. Additionally, many people are claiming that the hierarchy has to be dismantled though inevitably it is only the patriarchies being called into disrepute all the while the matriarchies are typically left out of these conversations.  
 
The majority of people alive who have grown up in the Western World were raised to be accepting, kind, respectful, and tolerant. There is though just so much most people will give when it comes to acceptance, kindness, respect and tolerance before all of those spigots run dry; especially when there is a lack of acceptance, kindness, respect, and tolerance being reflected back towards them. The general population is starting to show that many people have had enough of this one way street.
 
Governments have been creating bias laws for quite some time. While legal justice should be swift, the drafting of and implementation of said laws can drag on for years; for the Law needs reflect the will of the people. For example, in 1896 the US Supreme Court upheld the Jim Crow laws, and yet those same laws were overturned in 1964, given those laws only a 68 year run. It needs to be noted that any law that places any legally recognized personal characteristic before merit is by definition a biased law.
 
The recent and up and coming elections, throughout the West, will be the metric of just how much discontent has sunk in to the general population. To the politicians, talk to your potential constituents and find out what their concerns are and make them one of the planks that make up your platform. To the voters, find a politician whose values match as closely to your own and vote your conscience as the parties have all changed.
 
 
Finally, remember that those people who tell you there are only ‘their truths’ must by both principle and practice be lying to you.
