boy uses logic: it was very effective

I had to take a gender studies class as a part of my major, and I don’t remember the word‘gender’ being used as a grammatical term.

Then again, I’ve forgotten most of what I learned in that class anyway since I’m a biology major.

Decentralist sounds good. Hadn’t heard the term before. But I like the theory. All problems are local so all solutions should be local as well.
In theory, I like anarchism, but I’ll concede that it’s not perfect. Still infinitely better than government though.

As for beating the left:
sadly, it’s probably too late to beat the left. But in a hypothetical scenario where victory could still be possible (and who knows, such a situation may arise again), beating them at science and language is necessary for victory. The left won the culture war and science war because the right acted from a position of bigotry.
I.e. trying to ban rap music (why? because black people enjoy it), trying to ban electronic music (why? because the kids like it), trying to ban violent video games, horror films, pot and so on. The list is endless. Basically anything people enjoyed, the right at some point tried to ban. Same with sexuality. Some inbred hick states even banned anal sex at some point. When it came to science, you had idiots out there claiming the world is 6000 years old and Dinosaur skeletons were forgeries. There were efforts to ban evolution from schools. Is it any wonder that artists and scientists then align with the left? Not to mention pissing off millions of black kids by vilifying some rap artists who’s music legitimately captured the feeling so many of them experienced growing up in those shithole ghetto areas? Artists generally interpret their life experiences. From techno music being invented in detroit by guys who worked in auto factories all day to hip hop using synths that resemble police sirens and rapping about shootings, drug use, lack of perspective for a better future and ubiquity of death. These are real experiences. The right never made an effort to understand it, the knee jerk response was always to try and ban it. Or blame it for school shootings. Either rap or video games.

To even have a chance of beating the left, the right will have to:
1. drop ALL bigotry. Yes, even against transgenders
2. consistently base all moral and policy positions on the best scientific information out of there. “Because the bible says so” ain’t gonna cut it. Half the country is irreligious now.
3. weaponize language like the left does. Consistently use scientific terminology and call the enemy out whenever they don’t use it correctly. Turn their own weapon against them.

Sexualization of children:  Yes, the left wants to make sex with children legal. This is not a majority position. However, they conflate it with lgbt rights and transgenderism, because they know conservatives has a rabid and pathological hatred for these people and will abandon all scientific basis when it comes to going after them. The left pushes pedophilia and the sexualization of children, and uses lgbt people as human shields. The right; reliably stupid, bigoted and rabidly foaming at the mouth with hatred of anything gay, concentrates its fire on the human shields, pissing off virtually anyone who’s not an evangelical or al qaida sympathizer in the process and losing the battle against pedophilia.

Let’s be honest here: for many on the right, it’s not about pedophilia. They just really hate gays. It’s the same with their reactions to school shootings. After every school shooting, the left goes after guns and the right goes after video games or claim it’s because “we removed god from schools”. They’re trying to use real life tragedies to go after video games and atheists. Motivated by bigotry and hatred.

Only way to beat the left is to always have facts on your side. Bigotry ain’t gonna cut it anymore.

===================

1) you clearly have almost no clue about the groups of people you use such a broad brush to paint nor apparently do you understand the left as they (at this point) refer to any point of disagreement as bigotry, it’s used as a defense from logic and debate the word is very rarely used seriously any more

2) the morality of this country is indeed derived from Christian values and most people in the USA believe in a God with over half identifying with Christianity itself and none of that even includes all the folks coming across the border of which whom are largely Catholic or Christian.  You are not going to appeal to the left with science anyway because they ignore it when it suits them.

3) if we become what we fight against what is the point?  You are not going to convert the left with logic or science because they don’t care about it.  That entire ideology is about the ends justifies the means at the front of it and the backend of it is really all about hatred.  You will defeat neither that way.

At the end of the day it’s not that the “right” needs to win.  To even say that plays into the way the left thinks because at this point in the game anyone right of Marx is considered “alt-right”.  The radical left just needs to lose and be beaten by a unified right, middle, and even just regular classic liberals.  It’s not that a single ideology needs to win, it’s just that one in particular needs to lose.

” Wasn’t so long ago, science was saying certain kinds of people were sub-human.”  That wasn’t actual science. Hitler even tasked his scientists to come up with any way to determine if Jews were a different race or if there was any scientific way of telling apart a Jew from an Arian. The result was it was not possible. Naturally, this information was never made public. But the Nazis knew their own racial ideology was bullshit. They still pushed it.

Unfortunately, then as now, politicians have corrupted scientists to advance their ideological goals. But that isn’t science. Science is a method. It’s how we determin reality. I would argue that is the only moral standard a society can be built upon. If a moral standard isn’t based on reality (with the scientific method being how we determine what is and isn’t real), then it’s ideology. No good has ever come from ideology.

Real science is neutral, non-ideological and purely reason and fact based.

Science has been as corrupted as gender. Trust the science? Not from liars that try to claim all these different genders. Same liars about the genetic modification that they called a vaccine. Science has become a total farce. Big payola goes to anyone who pushes “climate change.”

To the youth, I have to apologize. They scientists think it is okay to corrupt your innocence. You are not really supposed to be surrounded by filth and smut and vulgarity. Your institutions are all entirely corrupted.
