Remember how the Mainstream Media said they won't be coming for Jefferson and Washington Next?

1619 is the most toxic historical revisionist historical movement of the modern age, and we have had a lot of them recently.

I'm afraid they're already dead.

Considering Portland's pushed to become a city-state, I'm not all that surprised kinda.

ABS while this establishes precedence of radicalism, it's a considerable outlier on the leftist front.

Not for long. We used to say the same thing about the trans movement.

I think that J! and Fuzzy Necromancer's thread sort of proves why the left, and not the Trump supporters, are the ones who are the existential threat to the continued existence of America.

This is why I don't take Worffan101's "oh, everyone is an American" stuff seriously. We have a large population that don't want to be Americans, they want to replace America.

Elaborate please? I don't follow. For starters, you're from Portland I presume?

My point is "it's just an outlier" is what people used to say about radical trans ideology. Now you are subjected to great fury just for suggesting that biological sex is a meaningful category (see J.K. Rowling). Therefore, your implication that this hatred of the Founding Fathers and this separatism is just a fringe position does not fill me with any confidence. Today's fringe position is what everyone is required to believe in a year or two.

No, I live in the Northeast.

Well I mean you're entitled to your own assessment as am I, so I concede a tad. It's certainly not a common conversation though. Otherwise right now, it's a thing in Portland as far as both of those articles, just a bit anecdotal.

As far as the JK Rowling, she is saying it as opposition so it's not just like walking in the park doing nothing, but I never got the sense that she's cognizant of the issues provoking these changes. Her argument is that feminism fits females like a glove and the reformation is disruptive to that. There's degrees of that I understand and degrees I'll just not pretend to know, but I'm not clear on how institutionalized embracement of trans identity measures really disrupt things on such an innate level.

It was never a slippery slope, it was always the end goal of destroying the spirit of America utterly, they just started with "acceptable" targets.
