Transgenderism is a fad of opulent societies. Saying that Venezuela is good because it has no transgenderism is dumb. Venezuela is starving. Obviously, there’s no money for boutique identities of bored, overfed people. Because there are almost no well-fed, let alone overfed, people.
The real victory over the tyranny of boutique identities is not to starve everybody to distract them from weird behavior. The victory lies in convincing the people who have the leisure and the money to pursue this path that it’s not good and doesn’t lead to any real flourishing.
We don’t need to give up any of our civilizational advances. We don’t have to embrace third-worldist privations and chaos. Our civilization can lead to normalizing “yeet the teets”, and yes, it already did that. But it can also lead away from that. All we need is to start exercising some self-control. We need to not venerate self-indulgence quite so much.
If there’s a scratch on your knee, you don’t saw off the whole leg. We can absolutely continue enjoying our civilization and correct its mistakes. There’s no need to ditch the whole thing.

I like this post and want to agree with it. But how are “we” supposed to convince “ourselves” to exercise self-control?

I think that many people have had it with the freedom to be a raging maw of emotion and need. Let’s see if it’s enough people to start turning away from the current regime of “freedom above all.”
