This is the fundamental key fucking issue with “political debate” these days.
That and that many people seem to think that the reason their opponent disagrees with them, is be because they simply don’t understand a different viewpoint.
Genderspecials seem to be the worst for this in my experience and opinion, but should other people’s experiences and opinions differ to mine, then please share that.
It annoys me, because combined with this conviction that “gender critical” have failed to understand what being trans is, the GS seem to then jump to a conclusion that the GC don’t understand biology either.
When pressed on the biology, the GS resort to claims that only doctors fully understand this, but doctors and “science” fully support a more complex nuance on biological sex.
Partly I suppose if they actually understood the other viewpoints, they would see the ridiculous and incorrect parts of theirs, but again, that is a critical part of debate.
If you are able to defend a position on what is true or perhaps ethically and morally “correct” about the position rather than ignoring or denying what is inconveniently wrong, then you have a more compelling case.
Imposing your ignorance on others is also fucking stupid and annoying.
