("The woke say it is transphobic to stay attached to your body. The very idea of having a link to the body is biological essentialism.") - unfortunately this new ideological perspective of "woke disembodiment" - inevitably necessitates of course an associated - "disconnection" - from one's own brain. This of course explains the frequently "brain-less" hostile irrationality that characterizes so much of the attack rhetoric aimed at anyone who simply defends safe spaces for women and girls and/or refuses to partake in the delusion that a biological male can magically transform into a "woman" because he wishes it were so.

"(The making of the global feminine class is a structural adjustment. It's like economic structural adjustment against the newly decolonised countries of Africa, but it’s a social structural adjustment against the newly decolonised women of the world. By breaking the meaning of the word woman, they are breaking the Feminist Fence we built to protect us from the ravages of men.") - I love this analysis. I think it is very insightful indeed.
