I can see Gnosticism has had a great influence on our modern spiritual world view - although haven't spent the time formulating a solid thesis about it - I suspect James Lindsay has.
Appreciate your post on this and the video content you've produced. Well done.
Regarding persecutors, from my experience interacting with trans-identifying people, what I sense is a collective contempt for people who are confident, fulfilled, popular, and successful. “Normies,” to use the nomenclature of mid 2000s 4Chan. For whatever reason they feel isolated and rejected by society. Makes sense, considering that we now know that gay, autistic, and deeply traumatized people are drastically over represented within the cohort of the so called trans children receiving treatment from Tavistock. They’re desperate to find the right combination to pick the lock of social acceptance, or at least an explanation/excuse for why they’ve always felt left different and wrong. They cherish and covet all the labels and stereotypes because they perceive them as ready made identities that they can simply try on and try out. Of course,TERFs are the most evil persecutors of all, because their resistance breaks the emersion. For the autogynephiles, which is very likely almost all of the men, TERFs are a blunt reminder that they are violating strangers by performing their paraphilia in public. This shame, and the narcissistic rage that immediately follows, is what I see whenever I watch videos of their extreme and violent reactions.
What do you think? I’m interested to hear your own thoughts/theories on the subject.
