“…as you said, this is still being pushed in schools very aggressively, there’s a lot of gender confusion out there among young children, and I don’t see our reliance on experts going away…” This was Abigail Shrier describing to Benjamin Boyce the situation now throughout America (and the wider West in varying degrees) of a systemic institutionalization of gender madness against parents and children. While it’s an apt description in and of itself, it seems couched in a curious myopia to the wider problem of how and why these things are happening so broadly and intensively. It almost sounds, when Abigail is talking (and Benjamin does little to correct her), that there are these bad people doing these things to us, and we are more or less powerless for now to push back, but maybe we can find a way, etc. — rather than that the problem is not so much people within institutions, but the systemic culture that is the wider contextual web of cultural tissue unifying those institutions and creating (and promoting) these policies by a kind of auto-pilot mechanism of feedback loops.
