Maladapted, Part II

You hear people thinking that they can break reality with thought, that thinking it must make it so, I think we all have seen their lot. The kids that think that they are cats, and demand litter in their schools, the ones with made-up ‘identities,’ they saw online and think are cool. Like demigirls or tree spirits, and other sorts of nonsense crap, worse still, the ones who claim they’re trans, in better times we all would laugh. And while kids always play nonsense it’s elevated in past years, the trans ones in particular trod on a path that ends in tears. What is truly a mental illness gets treated like just some life choice, we help them walk to tragedy, when if sane we’d help them avoid. They cheerlead a condition with forty percent suicide rates, encouraging a condition which leaves these people to their fate, and if they push it too far with the surgeries and hormones, they then sterilize these people, never to have kids of their own. Again the problem becomes clear, they can’t increase society, their future and ours sterilized for some sick wokist piety. We cheerlead what brings only death, biology has clearly said you cannot escape what you are, this make-believe is maladapted. You see oh-so-many children in a bad position these days, coming out of these broken homes, while so many people will say that single parents are heroes, you don’t need fathers in the house, we should embrace the new structures, that’s just the way that things are now, the old ways were so oppressive, family is what you make it. these platitudes are everywhere, and they’re all a pile of sh-t. You can see that in the children, so many of them just aren’t right, poverty, insecurity hoover around them like a blight. The boys either go gangbanging, turn to the hypermasculine; or just become weak beta boys to be trampled on by women. The girls end up on stripper poles, seeking male attention through sex, no idea of their own value, since no one was there to protect. There’s the higher rate of abuse when foreign men come to the home, high rates of criminality, and beyond this they’ll never know what a good family will look like, since they’re not seen it for themselves, dooming their chances in marriage, just perpetuating the hell. break-down in functionality scales up to the nation at large, the people that we rely on walk around with these unhealed scars, so why has the world gone to hell I think if safely can be said those broken homes give us people who are badly maladapted.
