    this is just what i think, but it might be, that someone who questions gender identity, might also question capitalsim instead of just accepting the rethorics…

      Capital is built upon the foundation of strictly enforced gender roles, men enfocring monogamy so they could be sure who their sons were, to consolidate wealth in their family

      read the Origin of the Family, Private Property and the State, or there’s a shorter section about it in Transgender Warriors

      wow prole wiki was the 4th result when I searched for this book

      anything that forces you to question the status quo will prod you into questioning other things.

      for me, it’s being queer; brown; and on the spectrum, which are all things that get you frequent rejection from almost all status-quo-loving groups of people.

        Can confirm, started with going vegan for me. After that I kicked out my religion/faith, then the belief in the state and then in my gender lol.

      Once I’d already rejected my assigned gender I had an intellectual freedom few around me did. I was helped by having psychonaut friends who were also headed hard progressive labor-left but when everything could be questioned and the cruelty inherent to enforcement of the system was clearly visible it wasn’t hard to notice that infinite growth didn’t sound realistic

      There’s probably some overlap where people capable of accepting themselves as transgender instead of denying it are more ready to deny tradition in general
