California is just Fucked-Up

[Freija]

Your answers to some of the questions are very similar to others I have heard from other people. I would postulate that you are using the "Lefts" hand book on how to answer such questions ( the way you answer is very much in the Lefts doctrine ). Last time I seen this type of thing was when the moonies trained there people to answer set questions.

I wasn’t aware I was answering any questions? You can postulate all you want but I find your conclusions and assessments – the left’s handbook and a trained Moonie no less to be highly amusing and I have to admit, they gave me a chuckle and a big smile. I had to Google what the hell a Moonie even was?  Are you sure I’m not an Islamic bot, a Chinese agent or an operative of some dark cabal, the illuminati or the NWO with a script trying to infiltrate the minds of the proletariat in order to tear down the fabric of society. Jesus, man! Sometimes a cigar is just a cigar.

Still makes interesting reading, not very convicting reading but interesting.

I’m curious to know what you found to be not very convincing or what you thought I was trying to convince anyone of? At any rate, I’m glad that you were entertained. Maybe I’ll make up some more interesting fiction to keep you amused? [/s]

But I do wonder why dont you just get on with your life and live just as you are, you like myself are way too old to be involved in things like this, just enjoy your life

Whatever gave you the impression I do not enjoy my life? I’ve done some amazing, unique and magical things in life and been blessed with good fortune and love as a daughter, a wife, a lover, a mother and a grandmother and have done things and seen things from a perspective few ever have or ever will. If I died tomorrow and could look back, I’d say damn, what an awesome trip. In many ways, I count myself one of the luckiest people in the world and it seems to me you are suggesting now that I got mine, I should just sit back, rest on my laurels,  take it easy and not give a shit about others because I’m old?

To me, that seems pretty selfish when I still have things to contribute that might help others that haven’t been as fortunate as I have and when it comes to the tranosphere, my history and experience and particularly because I am old and have lived a good life, it puts me into a rather rarified position to do so as even within the so called trans community itself, I am an anomaly and an anachronism because the number of Boomers that were trans as children with the love, support and understanding from their parents and family who are still alive today number in low double digits. In fact, in five or six years of looking, I haven’t found any as most weren’t as advantaged and simply didn’t make it or if they did, were decimated by AIDS, addiction and poverty due to the challenges of basic existence in what was often a difficult and toxic in a world that didn’t understand. Being a trans person isn’t easy in today’s world. Being one in the 60s, 70s and 80s was something else.

Thanks to trans activism and the pushback against it there is so much ignorant bullshit out there about people like me that does nothing but make their lives harder and more challenging and if I can help one person to become more knowledgeable and understanding of the trans condition, especially that of trans youth i.e. the primary or true type trans by sharing my story and letting folks draw their own conclusions, then I can feel like I’ve done something to help and sleep well at night.

Wally, what have you done or do for your people? Oh wait, what needs to be done and you’re too old to care anymore anyway, right? The least I can do is occasionally post on a stupid internet forum even if it’s at my own expense and risk of being disliked even though most consider me a friendly and nice person and for the most part I try to not be obnoxious or in your face. Some things are just bigger and more important than me and this is one of them. I’m sorry if that bothers anyone.

OMG! This thread exploded while I was writing and watching Netflix and many good points were raised I would like respond to but goddammit, it’s 2:55 in the morning and my eyeballs are shot. I appreciate the opportunity to have this discussion in a reasonable manner and will be back with more sometime tomorrow.

Thanks!
