People can't not be in groups... like being a person is a group... I hate how little people actually understand 🤦 Being in a group is not a problem. Believing you can judge other groups is the problem. The problem is people accepting terms like "woke" or "far right" as labels that determine morality. In the right (or wrong depending on perspective) groups, both of those terms will isolate you from that group. It is not the existence of groups, it's the assumption that some groupings are better than other. Nobody does this to us, they just take advantage of the fact that this is human nature. People are also too lazy and don't care enough to think before they decide what they are going to say about what group. I see thousands of comment sections calling anyone who isn't right wing, pedophiles... where tf is this sentiment when that's happening? You don't see it happen because people have decided they'd rather try and win an argument than treat other people with respect. It's the "culture war" and you can't fight a war without dehumanizing your opposition. It's literally propaganda 101, if you want to be supported in eliminating something, then you find a way to frame it as defense. Literally the exact same playbook that we used with Vietnam and both recent wars in the Middle East.

Although I admired my brothers and sisters, I did NOT want to feel like I was factory-made to be another one from an assembly line. It would have killed my spirit, so I fought hard against it.

But they're to afraid to say what they think. For example, to give an example, I was at Kroger the other day, and some reasonable white lady got upset that I was trying to confront a "trans" teenager that was saying HE (that's right liberals, I misgendered a trans person. Go ahead! Lock me up! Or Cancel me!) was trans. She was white, no blue hair, unfeminism, (NOT WOKE), but she disagreed with me. It really shows just how prevalent all the brainwashing is in society. This person agreed with me, but they didn't say it. Common sense is gone, and it has been replaced with COMMON UNSENSE.

People can't not be in groups... like being a person is a group... I hate how little people actually understand 🤦 Being in a group is not a problem. Believing you can judge other groups is the problem. The problem is people accepting terms like "woke" or "far right" as labels that determine morality. In the right (or wrong depending on perspective) groups, both of those terms will isolate you from that group. It is not the existence of groups, it's the assumption that some groupings are better than other. Nobody does this to us, they just take advantage of the fact that this is human nature. People are also too lazy and don't care enough to think before they decide what they are going to say about what group. I see thousands of comment sections calling anyone who isn't right wing, pedophiles... where tf is this sentiment when that's happening? You don't see it happen because people have decided they'd rather try and win an argument than treat other people with respect. It's the "culture war" and you can't fight a war without dehumanizing your opposition. It's literally propaganda 101, if you want to be supported in eliminating something, then you find a way to frame it as defense. Literally the exact same playbook that we used with Vietnam and both recent wars in the Middle East.

Truth speaks to power...thank you Douglas and John.
Touché, Douglas Murray! As someone who grew up the youngest of 5 children, individualism was something I scratched and clawed to achieve. I felt I was supposed to “fall in,” so to speak, and play the sports the others played, etc. I had different ideas about what I wanted to do and who I wanted to be. Although I admired my brothers and sisters, I did NOT want to feel like I was factory-made to be another one from an assembly line. It would have killed my spirit, so I fought hard against it.
Well said sir, well said.

I agree. Personally, I'm very special-as apposed to all the sheep and NPC's out there. I use my BRAIN to think; not my LGBrainT. It's complete madness. Everyone agrees with me. EVERYONE! But they're to afraid to say what they think. For example, to give an example, I was at Kroger the other day, and some reasonable white lady got upset that I was trying to confront a "trans" teenager that was saying HE (that's right liberals, I misgendered a trans person. Go ahead! Lock me up! Or Cancel me!) was trans. She was white, no blue hair, unfeminism, (NOT WOKE), but she disagreed with me. It really shows just how prevalent all the brainwashing is in society. This person agreed with me, but they didn't say it. Common sense is gone, and it has been replaced with COMMON UNSENSE. I wish more people agreed with me (they already do, but I wish they would just admit it). Everyone agrees with me.

I think most people who identify with any of the letters would be very quick to point out that 'lgbtq' is hardly a cohesive whole. As a 'g' man I can tell you that I've never even heard of any kind of 'leadership' in the sense that seems to be implied in these comments. I haven't researched, but I'd not be surpised if the acronym were coined by mainstream media as a shorthand to refer to different populations who are not straight.
I say, keep talking Douglas Murray.😊 From the few times I've heard him, I've got a lot of respect for him😊
THANK YOU! I've wondered this for long time now
I’m glad I’m in my 50s and don’t have to label myself and keep talking about it. It all seems pretty much a fiction to me. Who ever said that you had to build an identity on any thought or desire that just happened to come into your head? I am not anything that relies on any other human being to BE. I am beyond any idea, thought or feeling that’s just passing through.
This man is an absolute legend well done
I just love how Douglas takes these paraphrases apart ! A big kiss on your cheek, Douglas!
I'm not sure who this is but finally someone who is talking, and making sense! I am of the same mindset. All through my school years people have been trying to label me and put me in a box. "You're a stoner!" "You're a jock!" "You must be a nerd!" "You must be grunge!" I got so sick of it, I decided to dress differently everyday in the stereotypical clicks they tried to put me in. LOL Now I have a 13 year who at 9 was falling into the trap. I told her to just focus on the things she enjoys, don't listen to those who are trying to label you and enjoy your childhood. Now she is a critical thinker and doesn't let anyone try to label her. 😁
