That's post-modernism.
>not joining up to double-bully your enemies
Sure, for a time. But in the end there can be only one will.
>I have a gun
>you have a gun
>surely one of us must kill the other
I dont really buy that tbh
That's not a good analogy.
Let's say I'm Ben Shapiro and I say there are only two genders.
In what sense? That it doesn't map to a scenario that has no actual logical structure?
And you're some special snowflake who thinks they're a third (or fourth, or fifty-seventh gender).
If both of our believes actually alter reality, we can't exist simultaneously.
Either our beliefs have to change or we have to change.
Either Ben has to start believing in the 57 genders, or the snowflake conforms to one of the two genders.
Please explain this guys https://youtu.be/N3irid2qUVk
Your analogy fails because my having a gun doesn't mean you don't have a gun.
They actually can, because the two sides aren't using the same concept
Remember now, we're not just talking about words, we're talking about reality.
Further, reality has no basis on belief
Reality is altering with our belief in this scenario. Lucid dreaming.
Yes, and you could have both the leftist concept and the righty concept exist simultaneously, because ultimately the lefty version is meaningless
You're sticking to the modernist metaphysics. I'm using different metaphyiscs.
You have to start thinking outside the modernist box if you want to understand these creatures.
No, I'm saying the leftist narrative is not a necessary contradiction. If anything it's overcategorization
You look at how these people express "genders" and you find that we already have words that describe these concepts in the vast majority of cases
They just map to a binary system
Whereas the narrative suggests they break the system
Ben saying "there are only two genders" is invalidating the existence of the snowflake. It's saying 'the reality you perceive is false'.
No it isn't, when you boil it down to the concepts being described
Would u thonk that men who trans to women did it because they believe women have it better than men in western culture?
Think*
Ben is saying "there are males and females", snowflake is saying " "there are feminine men and masculine women and I'm assigning those separate categories from man and woman"
Where each measurable point in the gradient becomes a category
Thats dumb
Do you know why there are more feminine men now adays
Jesus like those people who categorize dirt
Beemann we're going to keep talking past each other here until you learn to throw away objective reality. Post-modernists do not believe in objective reality. You're approaching this from an extremely modernist mindset and you're not getting it. If I were a post-modernist SJW I would be REEEEEEEing right now.
Its because if a boy in school acts out like a boy they are given drugs for add or adhd
I'm going based on what they argue lol. They're not focusing on biology, but behavioural expression and mindset
Those drugs suppress them and have been known to cause depression down the road
This "you just don't understaaaand man" shit is pretentious lol
I live in lefty territory
Same
No, they're going on pure feeling. You are trying to categorize them based on some set of logical principles.
