Think about it. Here are some recent headlines:

China may have over 40 space launches in 2020
Iran denies shooting down Ukranian jet over Tehran
Boy George slammed as ‘transphobic’ after mocking pronouns as a ‘modern form of attention seeking’

A person of 30 years ago would be able to comprehend the first two, though not having any idea of the underlying story.

The last one would not have any frame of reference at all, even though Boy George was already known.

Gay men aren’t big on transexuals.

If they liked t*ts, they’d consider playing for the other team.

Transgenders talking trash on Boy George when they weren’t even alive while he was gaying it up.

They’ve got some balls.

I know Boy George is queer, and all that...but I tell you, Culture Club, MTV and President Reagan. The early 80s were a great time to be alive in America.

(MTV screwed up when it started going ghetto, and then dropped music videos)

Yep. Boy George is too conservative and too normal for today's totalitarian left. That should concern everyone. I know that I'm worried what will happen the next time they seize power.

that was due to law changes that rewarded minority ownership of media outlets.

:: use of pronouns is a “modern form of attention seeking”. ::

Blindness avails.
It is the “wedging” of tyrannical fascism.

Sympathy for the trans community is fading fast. They’re a demanding bunch of pains in the asses.

I always liked Boy George. He was a good singer and didn’t take himself too seriously. And I liked how he constantly teased George Michael back in the 80s (before Michael came out as gay), hinting that Michael was gay.

To be honest, I really don’t care if a man wants to dress as a woman. But he should not use the women’s bathroom and should not get to have people prosecuted for using the “wrong” pronoun.

if you don’t look, and you don’t take the sort of girly ethos of the music to heart too much...and you just listen...one thing is clear.

Boy George could really sing.

He really could. The dude could sing.
