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.
