The Deconstruction of Ellen/Elliot
The media and woketeers refuse to use the term "gay" to describe "men who have sex with other men". What happened to "don't say gay" being a human rights violation?
Deconstructionism and postmodernism comes for all.
Jacques Derrida invented the concept of “deconstructionism”. Deconstructionism is based on two ideas: first that no passage or text can possibly convey a single reliable, consistent, and coherent message to everyone who reads or hears it and second is that the author who wrote the text is less responsible for the piece’s content than are the forces of culture (such as language) and the author’s unconscious biases and ideology.
Language has always been the playground of evil because words are malleable if only civilizations allow them to be. Now the deconstructionist theories have moved past language and are being applied to science, medicine and nature.
We are witnessing deconstructionism impact society in real time.
Combined with the current wave of postmodernism, it is attacking our civilization.
Postmodernism rests on three things: 1) relative truth, 2) the absence of discernment and discrimination and 3) pluralism.
Relative truth means exactly what you think it does. It is the basis for the idea there is any truth apart from the truth. Frederick Nietzsche called it “perspectivism”, which can be summed up for our times in the Costanza Rule: if you believe it, it is not a lie.
Then came the Great Monkeypox Pandemic of 2022, coalescing both deconstructionism and postmodernism into one common ideology.
The media aggressively misreported that the parental rights law passed in Florida was the "Don't Say Gay" law. Lefty pundits and members of the entertainment industry went on TV and radio just to say the word "gay".
Apparently their opposition was driven because not saying "gay" robbed the members of the LGBTQIAXYZ community of their right to express their identity to the world. It was a human rights violation.
Last night, I heard our local teleprompter readers on our local news say that the monkeypox vaccination was available for people who have been identified as "at risk" and the prime identifier of that group was "men who have sex with other men".
Men who have sex with other men.
Weren't those people once referred to as "gay"?
Somewhere I saw an online conversation that proposed this was due to an interest in "accuracy".
I suppose if a biological woman, say someone like actress Ellen Page, decides to become Elliot Page and has sex with a man, it is allegedly accurate to characterize the act as a "man having sex with another man" and the media doesn't want to stigmatize any person who "identifies" as a man.
I've always found it contradictory that while "identifying" as a sex/gender at variance with your biological sex is purported to be casting off the shackles of the social construct of expected roles, behaviors and appearance fashioned by whatever societal system you find oppressive (the patriarchy, white people, Christianity, take your pick), and yet when men "identify" as women, they immediately express their liberation by accepting the construct by adopting the roles, behaviors and appearance the societal construct allegedly assigns to women and when women "identify" as men, the same occurs.
Ellen/Elliot had her/his breasts removed to look more male, adopted behaviors consistent with being male, and I assume at least considered an addadickomy.
Deconstructionism has infected America to the point that we now live in what are the most superficial, deluded and intellectually dishonest times of history - but there is no way the majority of America doesn't understand this is a huge scam.
Usually a scam has a benefit to someone, but it is hard to see how this current wave of mass formation dumbass profits anyone.
I have no explanation why America allows such a cancer to infect our kids and eat away at our American variant of Western Civilization other than they just can’t believe it deserves the time of day. At times, we seem almost too tolerant.
Several countries, like the UK and France, has warned the rest of the world not to follow America’s embrace of the transgenderism fad. They are accurately point out, and I agree (not that they needed me to agree, but I do) that the butchery of irreversible trans surgeries “border on ideological” rather than being based in solid scientific and medical truths.
As I recently posted, it is just the latest iteration of the left's War on Nature, Natural Law and Natural Rights. It is a hatred of creation.
It occurs to me there have always been people who think they are at war with themselves when they really are at war with God.
Maybe this gender “confusion” isn’t mental illness at all, it is just another way to poke a sharp stick in the eye of God.
Those never turn out well.
The good news is the left has apparently decided "don't say gay" isn't a human rights violation now.
A couple of queries Michael: Is the "b" in dumbass silent? When will "happy and" be deconstructed?
Two or three Substack authors have been posting articles commenting on the changes the WOKE have established in our vocabulary and the new restrictions on using traditional meanings. Accordingly, Wikipedia has redefined Recession to comply with the Biden Administration's fantasies and that page has been closed (i.e. no one can question the new definition).
Last week, on Quora.com, I used the word "black" in a comment and was informed that is no longer appropriate when referring to POC.
Yesterday (on that same website) I asked whether anyone in the federal government had suggested or put out a PSA reminding people that unprotected gay sex could lead to the spread of monkeypox. That question was censored and deleted as "hate speech".
It appears that, at least for now, Substack.com has a monopoly on free speech in the USA.
