Ever think maybe there is good reason why weirdos were negatively stigmatized in the past and had to stay in the closet?

Things have a reason for being.

Today we pretend like there is a conflict theory behind all this. In other words, nothing has a reason for being the way it is/was, it was all just to keep some group down and elevate another.

But could it be that abortion is bad? That homosexuality is bad? That women are not equal to men? That children are not as wise as their elders? That interracial marriages tend to fail? That the mixing of some religions doesn’t work?

But then again, who can argue with the logic of being called a racist, sexist, xenophobic homophobe?

Did caveman have a red phone and call each other, coming up with a plan to oppress women for eternity? Or was it that women get bladder infections easily, bear children, get pregnant and feed, have wide hips and can’t run as well, have less red blood cells by volume, are on average shorter, have more body fat and only have about 60% of the upper body strength of men that certain roles came about?

Of course not!!! Nothing has a reason for being the way it is. It’s just men oppressing women. Women today don’t make 70% of a males income because they start in the labor market later, stop earlier, often take a break, and choose occupations that pay less. Nope, it’s all a conspiracy and our equity warriors want to fix this...

At some point, nature and reality has a way of catching up with us. That is true as an individual and society. We shall see how equal Americans see the sexes when 5,000 body bags from a conflict somewhere with women come home in one month.

Our society is dis-attached from reality. We have some modern philosophical BS ideas not rooted in function/pragmatism guiding us. These ideas are OK as long as things are working fine and we can absorb the costs.
