What I noticed starting in junior high school was, the people who “won” things, or got awards, were not necessarily the people who obviously deserved those things. Even then, I understood that awards and “wins” were political.
On a higher scale, Yasser Arafat got a Nobel Peace Prize. So did Obama. Neither deserved it. But the people giving it were signaling that they, the givers, were “in” or virtuous.
The “trans” thing is our culture going through a cyclic insanity. Twenty years from now people dressed as “trans” will look as fashionable as bell bottoms and granny glasses.
How old R U?
