The Left's pushing of this issue is more proof of Gramschi's statement.
Antonio Gramsci, Italian Marxist theoretician and founding member and one-time leader of the Communist Party of Italy. Gramschiās motto is that of liberals today: āthat all life is "political."
No matter the issue, and more significant than 'follow the money,' is to question the political benefit for the Left.
Hence, the title.
Leftism, Liberalism, cultural Marxism,whatever the name du jour, all require the eradication of tradition, values, and religion.
1."...we are being forced to confront a more fundamental debate: whether men can really become women.
America is in the midst of what has been called a ātransgender moment.ā In the space of a year, transgender issues went from something that most Americans had never heard of to a cause claiming the mantle of civil rights.
2....can a boy truly be ātrappedā in a girlās body? Can modern medicine really āreassignā sex? Is sex something āassignedā in the first place? Whatās the loving response to a friend or child experiencing a gender identity conflict? What should our law say on these issues?
3....Dr. Paul McHugh .... as chair of psychiatry at Johns Hopkins Medical School and psychiatrist-in-chief at Johns Hopkins Hospital, McHugh put a stop to sex-reassignment surgery at Hopkins.
Once the elite Johns Hopkins did this, many medical centers across the nation followed suit.
4.But in recent years we have seen a resurgence of these drastic proceduresānot in light of new scientific evidence, mind you, but as a result of a growing ideological movement. Such is our transgender moment.
5....over 45 gender clinics opened their doors to our nationās childrenātelling parents that puberty blockers and cross-sex hormones may be the only way to prevent teen suicides.
Never mind that according to the best studiesāthe ones that even transgender activists themselves citeā80 to 95 percent of children with gender dysphoria will come to identify with and embrace their bodily sex.
6.Never mind that 41 percent of people who identify as transgender will attempt suicide at some point in their lives, compared to 4.6 percent of the general population. Never mind that people who have had transition surgery are 19 times more likely than average to die by suicide.
7.The most helpful therapies focus not on achieving the impossibleāchanging bodies to conform to thoughts and feelingsābut on helping people accept and even embrace the truth about their bodies and reality.
8.....McHugh got it right. The best biology, psychology, and philosophy all support an understanding of sex as a bodily reality, and of gender as a social manifestation of bodily sex. Biology isnāt bigotry.
9. Despite activistsā best efforts to put up a unified front, Harry cannot become Sally. Activistsā desperate insistence to the contrary suggests that the transgender moment is fleeting."
The Sex-Change Revolution Is Based on Ideology, Not Science
