This is why you can't really talk to these people. They're so as mired in their own righteousness and 100% truth as the far right. It's like trying to convince a Trumper they shouldn't support a thrice-indicted candidate.

She's the kind of woman TAs love because she's so easily gaslit and indoctrinated. I will blame two generations (Y & Z) of coddled, permissive progressive parenting for this. While I do appreciate liberal parents' desire to not limit their children the way many conservative parents do (it's troubling how little support gay kids in conservative families get), they have taken it too far, have never been able to say No often enough, and have bought into all this queer theory nonsense. I saw it with my highly liberal progressive friend whose daughter first decided she was bisexual, then a lesbian, then....non-binary. And I was like, "What?" Well, she was getting this crap in high school, and later in college, and my friend bought into all of it and just listened instead of ever challenging. Fortunately, the daughter found a nice transwoman to marry and they have a child; they seem to be a pretty functional happy family so good for them, it can be done. But I wonder how that works for kids born to more psychologically dysfunctional families like this.

I keep trying to understand what it is about female psychology that makes so many women like Kitten vulnerable to manipulative misogynists in this movement.
