The entire LBGTQ ... Pronouns etc .... is basically white guilt on steroids. The Jews started the victim mentality ... "holocaust" .... then blacks w/ "slavery". The white liberals have rode that horse to gain power, however a problem as other minorities also lay claim on the "victim charts" white liberals wanting to retain relevant and have "their own" victim moment has adopted "LBGTQ" movements.
As it's not about color it's about sexuality and identification. This sexuality is used a cloak to walk among the masses that assess each other not on personal merit, but "victim status"
Minorities wanting not be out done has also adopted the LBGTQ movement and etc ... it's a constant downfall into "who's the biggest victim"
I would suggest a couple of finer points on this general idea.
First, for "liberals", virtue signalling has entirely replaced virtue. If you get the same social credit for signalling that you do for concrete action--which can be very costly and troublesome--then what would motivate and rational person to make the effort?
Second, again for "liberals", guilt is no longer personal but now entirely abstract. Previously, if you felt guilt over some matter, you could choose to personally make amends that you felt appropriate. But now, TPTB declare collective guilt, and persons in those groups are forced to make amends TPTB declare appropriate.
So the first is the degradation of persons and society through the destruction of virtue, and the second is disguised tyranny.
Social media did this.
That's an excellent point. Back in the day, when the Parasites used organized religion to control the population, you used to have to get off your ass and go to church (or temple or mosque) once a week to get that reinforcement of virtue or guilt.
Now it's as close as your pocket as you shelter-in-place.
