A lot of GC’ers are angry at @ggreenwald due to his past comments BUT he has had a tremendous arc on the gender debate. I think we should back someone when they’ve started to say the same things we are trying to say and being repressed for. Here’s a thread of his recent comments:
With @joerogan 3 weeks ago: Greenwald said: “One of the objectives of modern-day feminism was to expand the range of how women could express themselves. That they didn’t have to have long hair, and makeup on, and wear high heels... 1/3
...That they could have a masculine component, cut their hair short, wear jeans and play sports. That’s why a lot of feminists feel there is this incursion into womanhood... 2/3
...where now the idea is if that’s the form of expression that you find as a female that you oughta be encouraged to identify as a trans man instead of just a masculine of center female.” 3/3
On the way people are petrified to question gender identity ideology because it opens them up to scorn and condemnation: “That is a sickness in our culture… that has toxic effects I don’t think can be overstated." This topic comes up at 1 hr 30 minutes.
Here is the rest of the thread (I meant it to connect to this but twitter gods thwarted me): https://twitter.com/iamgrushenka/status/1329302410666209280
