The dogmatic hivemind of Allyship (and performative activism)

I've got some thoughts...

You know that phrase "if you have to say you're not racist, that means you are!" Now, obviously I think that's a ridiculous theory because that conclusion is based on personal feelings and not fact.

An excerpt from "How to be an antiracist", written by Ibram X. Kendi reads the following: "There is no in-between safe space of ‘not racist.’ The claim of ‘not racist’ neutrality is a mask for racism.”

What that phrase means is that if someone were to defend themselves as "not a racist", assuming they were falsely accused, that I would confirm their racism.

Which means, if someone were to defend themselves as "not a transphobe", that would be proof of transphobia.

And if you say you're not a misogynist, CLEARLY you are.

This is exactly why you'll very rarely see me protesting against any insults that are thrown my way because I can't control what people believe, I can only encourage them to hear me out.

Interestingly enough, this week I was bombarded with hateful comments on Twitter, as I was working on the latest episode of Cancel This! The premise of the video reviews some of the backlash following my "transphobic comments" and also challenges viewers to consider the consequences of their reactions to hate speech, something that many "allies" fail to consider as they're smashing their keyboard in the name of human rights.

Ironically, no amount of friendships with transsexuals would satisfy these trans allies before admitting that their assessment of my "transphobia" is incorrect. Similarly, the diversity of thought that's neglected within the trans community goes on deaf ears, as it is in any community fueled by 'identity'.

(If an opinion is transphobic, what logical explanation is there when a transsexual shares the same opinion? Do they hate themselves? Are they giving cover to the oppressors? Yep, that must be it...)

It shouldn't be a surprise to you that I've dealt with cancel culture in the past, all for various opinions. I've never apologized for having said opinions and I don't plan on doing so for speaking the TRUTH that trans women are MEN.

All attempts to 'drag me' on social media for my 'harmful' comments have consistently resulted in more publicity for my channel, more support and of course, new connections.

Is it because I'm pandering to all the bigots' and Trumpies?
Or is it because society desperately needs to hear truth instead of feelings? I guess we'll never know.

In any case, if the attempts to ruin my life are futile, I can't help but wonder why do they still do it?

The stove is hot, why did you touch it?
That dog will bite you, why did you pet it?
Those hateful comments boost my visibility, so why do you leave them?

To spread awareness that I'm "transphobic"? Okay, after 100 or so retweets - I think everyone is aware. Now what?

Did it change my opinion?

Has your "activism" of leaving mean comments rendered the results that will legitimately help your cause?

No, of course not. So what's the point?

Is it because you crave inclusion?
Do you want to fit in? Or are you simply reacting because you want to do good in the world? (that I can respect).

Regardless, what I saw this week is nothing new to me. And while I'd hope that people will eventually open their eyes to see the intentional, GLOBAL division happening, I fear that nothing will change if society keeps avoiding tough conversations.

As much as I hate waking up to hundreds of strangers calling me every name in the book, I have no choice, WE have no choice. I'm sure people wonder "when will gothix stop having hot takes?", and the answer to that is: when you realize that I have the FREEDOM to speak and you have the power to IGNORE me.

Silencing me to root out 'bad opinions' (to your standards) is not activism, it's fascism. Wear the label and own it, but that's what it is. This isn't up for debate.

Sorry if that's a little too harsh, but I'm deeply concerned with the lack of self awareness and consideration of the consequences that follow combative and dogmatic "activism".

That said, I voted for Trump this past election, but I once suffered from severe trump derangement syndrome and had no issues writing MAGA supporters off as a racists.

You know what I discovered after I left the confides of my all inclusive echo chamber of a safe space? I discovered that there were human beings outside of those spaces. But because I was entrenched in woke/Marxist ideology, I never bothered to have a conversation with these people.

The women who feel like they're being erased because their bathrooms, sports and pregnancies are politicized for not being "inclusive" enough for biological men. (what the hell is a birthing person?)

The black conservatives that are viewed as nothing more than a coon, house nigger, bootlicker and a slew of other names by those with #BLM in their Twitter bio.

The black families of those lost someone to gang violence but are never supported by the media or the community unless it involves a WHITE cop.

The men who are told their masculinity and social norms are TOO toxic for a society saturated by pronouns.

The artists that are afraid to create because their comics aren't inclusive enough, their movies aren't diverse enough, and their comedy is insensitive because "jokes should never come at the expense of someone's FEELINGS".

Seriously, who goes to a comedy club just to be offended?

Our culture is suffering and make no mistake, it's by design.

Most people have figured it out, but I suspect if you're enraged while reading this, you're one of the many who haven't yet.

Your feelings, empathy and moral compass is being weaponized without you even realizing it. Divide and conquer is in full swing and you're desire to help the "marginalized" is contributing to the disorder.

Take a step back, and ask yourself - what does my safe space look like?

Do the members repeat the same dogma without considering different opinions?

Has your group cultivated an US versus THEM mentality?

What everyone's political leaning?

If you answered yes to any of these, you're not in a safe space. You're in a curated cult. The good news is, you can fix this by trying 3 things:

1. Be willing to listen to those you disagree with.
2. Be willing to have your beliefs challenged
3. Learn to have enough humility to admit when you're wrong

If you can commit to the above, it will open your eyes for the better. Because life isn't about solving every problem.

It's about finding the most efficient way to live WITH those problems.

Be good xo

Gun control won't stop mass shootings

In 1989, China's Government declared martial law and sent over 200,000 troops to Tiananmen Square to slaughter thousands of unarmed protestors.

Keyword, unarmed.

The recent school shooting in Texas is a tragedy, but the calls to impose more gun control isn't addressing the root cause of the problem.

The same politicians who want to enact strict gun policy in the name of safety, are the same ones that:

Think it's normal for impressionable kids to take puberty blockers because they 'feel' like the opposite sex.
Ignore the rise in suicides that have resulted from COVID lockdowns, drug overdoses and teaching kids about gender identity and sexuality in school.
Blame gang violence and crime on white supremacy or racism

If these people truly cared about preventing mass shootings, they would start by addressing the spiritual degeneracy that leads people to commit acts of violence in the first place.

Better yet, if safety is a legitimate concern, then why aren't these politicians ...

Diversity Educators are Propaganda Pushers (w/audio)

What: Destabilization + Exploitation
Why: Centralize the publics focus
How: Pandemic + Black Lives Matter + LGBTQIA+

DESTABILISATION

COVID Lockdowns (work/learn from home) ensured a large majority of the population would be at home.

The urgency that the pandemic created, ensured most people would be glued to their TV or phone to stay informed.

The BLM incident started almost immediately when lockdowns began. Most people knew about the riots because they were already consumed with pandemic related coverage. At this point the media & politicians are fluctuating between BLM coverage and the pandemic.

The fear of COVID gave people a reason to stay informed via news/social media, the BLM coverage exploited this fear. For example, many media outlets proclaimed that blacks are more at risk for contracting COVID due to systemic racism, the CDC Director declared racism a serious public health threat, etc.

EXPOLOITATION OF BLACK PEOPLE

Black Lives Matter (BLM) was a violent movement that resulted in the death of innocent ...

Representation doesn't matter (w/ audio)

You read that correctly.

As a black and Hispanic woman (that's not my "identity", it's just what I am), I've never once felt the urge to seek outside validation from the media.

Why? Because my mother raised me to see myself as a human being, and not as a color or a gender.

Now that I'm a Christian, I can also say that seeking the approval of God is far more important than seeking the approval of other human beings. Of course, that's a conversation that most people aren't interested in having, but thankfully, religion isn't necessary to argue against shallow and narcissistic ideas.

What is the purpose of representation?

Some people might say that it's to make certain groups of feel more welcomed in a particular industry. "How can anyone strive to do ___(blank) when they don't see people who look like them?"

Go pull up the Brave browser (or Google, assuming you enjoy the intrusiveness of big tech), and search one of the following:

"black people in movies"
"gay people in politics"
"trans people in television"...

Is there scientific basis behind being LGBTQ?

Does science provide a valid justification for the LGBT lifestyle? Join us as we delve into this intriguing subject in response to a recent Jubilee debate! Click here to watch my video! https://gothix.locals.com/post/4938200/is-there-scientific-basis-behind-being-lgbtq-reaction

-------

Now you might be asking, "Gothix, why the heck is this topic even important"? Well, my friends, this topic is VERY important for a couple of reasons.

The most obvious is that scientists DO NOT have the authority to establish moral laws.

If the argument is that certain behaviors are justified due to specific feelings being innate, then what's preventing scientists from justifying any other type of behavior? If we are to be intellectually consistent about this argument, then why would we blame anyone for anything they do, if science argues they are predisposed to a particular feeling? They can't help it! It's innate!...do you see the problem?

CONSIDERATIONS:

Science doesn't tell us anything about the world, scientists do. We rely on scientists to interpret scientific findings. Most people (including myself) don't have a background in biology or chemistry and simply regurgitate what they hear from scientists. All that to say, we have to remember that scientists are people and some people make mistakes or worse, LIE. The simple fact that homosexuality was REMOVED from a list of psychiatric disorders, should prompt us to question how much faith we have in "the science".

Morality does not come from nature. We can observe its patterns, but it doesn't tell us anything about how human beings are meant to live. What a monkey does in the wild has nothing to do with how human beings SHOULD behave. If there wasn't a distinction between the animal kingdom and the human species, then why aren't animals paying taxes like us?
No human, including scientists, has the authority to establish objective morality. An example that I like to use is understanding the components of a bomb. Science can show us how a bomb works, but science doesn't tell us if it's moral to use the bomb. We can form an OPINION based on what would happen if the bomb went off, (for example: human suffering and death are bad), but that would just be our opinion. What justification outside of human opinion is there to say using a bomb is wrong?
If homosexuality is a genetic occurrence, then why hasn't homosexuality ceased to exist, since same-sex couples can't reproduce, thus having no way to continue passing the 'gay gene'?

These are just a few things to consider as you try to engage people on this particular topic. As always, I highly recommend these two books

Bringing new life to a style dominated by death

My new merch line just dropped!

If you're like me and enjoy goth, punk, or alternative clothing, you might notice a consistent pattern in its imagery and marketing. Or, it's possible that you've never even given it a thought because you're so enamored by "how cool" the styles are. (I can relate)

Just this past year, I had to throw out half my wardrobe because I felt so ashamed that I had essentially become a walking billboard for death without even realizing it. A lot of the stuff I wore had patterns and slogans printed on it that depicted drugs, demons, violence, etc. and it got me thinking:

"Why are these symbols synonymous with that style of clothing?"

Come to think of it, this realization probably explains why first-time viewers of my channel assume I'm crazy just based on my haircut, nose ring, or stage name.

I don't believe alternative clothing should be dominated by degeneracy or the occult, nor do I think followers of Christ should force themselves to adapt styles that are more palatable to other believers.

With that in mind, I pitched an idea to the guys at No_System who hosted my previous merch line. I told them that I wanted to create a series of designs that represented different passages in The Bible, hoping to bring new life, to a style that's dominated by death. And as someone who recently became a believer this past year, these designs meant more to me than just a t-shirt.

Even if you don't consider yourself religious, I hope you'll still give some thought to the passages I selected and consider why darkness and the occult are so glamorized, in a society that constantly accuses followers of Jesus for pushing their beliefs onto others.

Psalm 96:5 - "For all the gods of the peoples are worthless idols, but the Lord made the heavens."

Karl Marx, the author of "The Communist Manifesto" made it his life's mission to "dethrone God and destroy capitalism." Marx dreamt of a communist revolution where religion would be abolished because he believed workers wouldn't need it if they found happiness in being equals. What Marx didn't understand was that human beings are created to worship, and when we reject God, we'll inevitably fill that void with something or someone else. Psalm 96:5 tells us that these worthless substitutes won't matter when our time on earth is up.

Philippians 4:7 - "And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus."

Every day our lives are inundated with junk, and we often accept it wholesale by scrolling endlessly on social media or watching the news in hopes we'll hear something bad. Stop that! Cling to what's good and reject the trash.

Socialism is a religion for the lazy

Why good ideas don't always lead to good outcomes

Socialism, Marxism and Communism are ideologies that inevitably create more poverty, homelessness and despair than we could ever image while living under Capitalism. Which is ironic, because the entire premise of these ideas is that it's more humane than living under a capitalist system.

I can appreciate the sentiment of wanting to eliminate poverty and world hunger, trust me, It pains my heart to see people living on the streets, but socialism is counter initiative to human rights.

Karl Marx, the man who wrote the Communist Manifesto, was not only a philosopher but a revolutionary socialist. Did I mention he was also broke? I suppose it should have been a warning sign that a broke socialist was criticising capitalism, but I digress.

Marx never acquired a regular occupation or a dependable means of livelihood. He was bankrupt, always in debt and with half of his household goods stored away at the pawnshop. In fact, the co-author of the Communist Manifesto, Friedrich Engels, would give Marx thousands upon thousands of dollars, which would inevitably "melt away in his fingers like snow". (See The Naked Communist, page 38-42)

Marx was also an athiest who believed religion was the opium of the people, a sigh of the oppressed creature and the heart of a heartless world.

It's no wonder why you'll be pressed to find a socialist/Marxist who follows Jesus. Interestingly enough, if they DID follow Jesus as opposed to the writings of Marx, they wouldn't be socialists at all!

So for this post, I'd like to explore one section of The Bible, which succinctly explains why Marx "hated all Gods" and to help us understand why communist societies (like the Chinese government) do not allow religious freedom and persecute those who hold beliefs that challenge the communist party agenda.

Warning Against Idleness 2 Thessalonians 3:6-15

"Now we command you, brothers, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that you keep away from any brother who is walking in idleness and not in accord with the tradition that you received from us."

I think it's reasonable to say that we're are all products of our environment. Some might be more susceptible to influence than others, but generally speaking, the more time we spend with positive and ambitious people, the more we'll begin to mirror their behavior. Likewise, if we're always around drunk, lazy, party animals, there's a high likelihood we'll become a sloppy degenerate. Proverbs 13:20 explains this perfectly: "Whoever walks with the wise becomes wise, but the companion of fools will suffer harm."

"For you yourselves know how you ought to imitate us, because we were not idle when we were with you, nor did we eat anyone's bread without paying for it, but with toil and labor we worked night and day, that we might not be a burden to any of you."

Why do you think doctors recommend exercise or learning a new skill to help combat depression? And why do some people choose to hang outside liquor or convenience stores for hours at a time? It's because they lack purpose. When depression begins to take hold of your mind, its harder to fight it off when you don't have something productive to focus on. Likewise, we can assume those who stand idle on street corners all day are probably up to no good. I know the typical response to this something to the effect of "well, maybe their poor! Maybe their homeless!". This part of scripture explains the importance of working for your food because it helps encourage perseverance and duty, which you wont learn by always expecting others to help you.

"It was not because we do not have that right, but to give you in ourselves an example to imitate."

There's a famous quote that goes: "Give a man a fish and you feed him for a day; teach a man to fish and you feed him for a lifetime." This concept is lost on many social justice ideologues when they infantilize the very people they're trying to help. If we're capable of achieving something positive in our lives, then the next rational step should be to lead by example as opposed to treating others like victims.

"For even when we were with you, we would give you this command: If anyone is not willing to work, let him not eat. For we hear that some among you walk in idleness, not busy at work, but busybodies. Now such persons we command and encourage in the Lord Jesus Christ to do their work quietly and to earn their own living."

Think of all the angry 'online activists' who spend their entire day online trying to "cancel" or shame a stranger for something they thought was wrong. These people are called busybodies. They waste all their time meddling into the affairs of others to "hold them accountable", instead of taking necessary steps to lead by example.

Additionally, there's a huge difference between not being ABLE to work, versus not WILLING. For those who are truly incapable of working (though, I believe that number is much smaller than people think) God commands us to be generous, kind and forgiving. But he also commands us to build others up according to their needs (Ephesians 4:29) and sometimes people NEED encouragement so they can be inspired to practice self control, perseverance and discipline.

"As for you, brothers, do not grow weary in doing good."

Pretty self explanatory.

In case you haven't figured it out, God is NOT compatable with socialisim, and the Bible has an abundance of other sections that can be used to challenge marxisim, communism and social justice ideas (gender theory, anti-racism, etc.), which ironically, are all forms of religion in their own right.

Therefore, the world should be very cautious to not blindly condemn religion as "a cult" without fully understanding what that particular belief system teaches. It's becoming more common for Americans in particular to write off the Christian Doctrine because, for most people, it's extremely difficult to believe in something they don't see or recognize it's importance when it challenges the very nature of their own beliefs.

But If we're not careful, we're going to end up living in a society that normalizes hostility, bitterness and prejudice as opposed to kindness, forgiveness and love. I can assure you that while the world won't ever be perfect, following Karl Marx will certainly make it worse.
