To: a little elbow grease

I do think we are seeing a fundamental political change.

The Progressives have held power by default through government bureaucrats and media dominance. Most people don’t like Progressive values. They think that things have gotten weird. Just to pick on one thing — transgenders are HUGELY significant to the Progressives. But why? Normal people don’t care about that stuff at all.

Donald Trump showed people that you could push back against the media and the bureaucrats. It’s a Great Awakening. And now the UK is awake as well.

Yes, look what those "men turned (NOT)women" have been allowed to do in girl/female sports competitions in high schools and colleges! It's sickening! And it's a huge turnoff to ANY REASONABLE PERSON.

To me, Transgenderism reminds me of Orwell’s “1984” where the Government is so powerful and its propaganda so effective, it can convince people that 2+2 = 5. If you can convince people that a man is a woman, you have effectively achieved the same thing. Even worse, you have smashed social/cultural norms to the point that people: 1) don’t know what to really believe and 2) are afraid to say that the Emperor has no clothes. In other words, they just beome compliant Sheeple. Mission Accomplished.

Bingo! You have nailed it.

The Progressives ruled through dominance. They controlled almost all information flow.

That control has been broken through a combination of technology and growing awareness of Media manipulation and bias, constantly toward the "Progressive" agenda.

The old tools do not work for the Progressives any more. They have constantly lied to themselves about reality, and are now befuddled as to how to adapt.
