Universal Deceit

You Know It’s a Time of Universal Deceit When Only “Experts” Can Tell The Truth



Several weeks ago, the Wall Street Journal published a couple of biologists who presented a glaringly obvious truth: there are only two sexes, not a “spectrum.” Furthermore, that fixed and immutable division pertains regardless of anyone’s feelings to the contrary [the Journal hides the piece behind a paywall, so I’m quoting outtakes from a secondary source]:
In humans, as in most animals or plants, an organism’s biological sex corresponds to one of two distinct types of reproductive anatomy that develop for the production of small or large sex cells—sperm and eggs, respectively—and associated biological functions in sexual reproduction. In humans, reproductive anatomy is unambiguously male or female at birth more than 99.98% of the time.
Nothing remarkable here—except that in our absurd age, we must laud both the biologists and the Journal for their courage in proclaiming such incontrovertible facts.
Also remarkable is Amerikans’ tragic and fawning deference to experts. Most of our countrymen are so enslaved to credentials that they trust neither their own senses and perceptions nor the accumulated wisdom of the centuries. No, they require biologists to state verities so basic and self-evident before agreeing that men are men and women are women. (Just as terrifying, many more will continue to deny reality despite this irrefutable testimony.)
These attitudes don’t bode well for more abstract concepts, such as political liberty, the reasons Our Rulers’ response to coronavirus rather than the germ itself is a threat, or the disadvantages of socialism’s “free” stuff.
