Memory-holing the past is something that the lords of lies love to do and pretending that trans women always existed is a prime example for this. Even though progressives think that they're so cultivated and intelligent, they're often extremely historically illiterate and I do think that this is on purpose. In general they'd rather have you to believe all what they're saying and only consider the last 10 years as real history, anything before has to be contextualized by a black tranny at a university or shouldn't even be discussed. Just some examples:
- Don't look up if Western Europe was already rich or richer before colonization. This isn't a big secret but it takes some time to actually find this out becaue of the propaganda. Western Europe was more or less as wealthy and technologically developed as the rest of Eurasia during the Medieval Era. But due to certain cultural, geographical, religious and structural factors some countries of Europe like the Netherlands reached world-record economic growth in the 14th century that even surpassed the economic growth of wealthy countries/empires/kingdoms like China. The colonization of Africa was less about resources and much more about a "who-has-the-bigger-dick?" contest. Even today there is barely any correlation between rich European countries and the size of their former colonies. Spain is nowadays one of the poorest Western European country and had huge colonies. Even for most of the 20th century Spain was rather a poor country and it was only after the end of the fascist regime and economic reforms in the 70/80s that Spain reached the average wealthy Western standard. On the other hand we have countries with no or few colonies like the Scandinavian countries who have today one of the highest living standards. For most of history Scandinavia has been a less desirable region due to its geography and climate.
- Don't mention the Arab slave trade unless you show a disclaimer that American slavery has been worse. Progressives aren't really happy that more Americans know today about the Arab slave trade as they're afraid that people might to see the hypocrisy that Arab countries are considered to be accountable for nothing, but white Americans should self-flagellate for eternity.
- Don't watch old movies because they're problematic. However, this is also a way to keep you from comparing old movies to movies that are produced today. If you can compare them you know that most modern movies fucking suck. The only exception is if progressives can frame an older film as actually progressive, like for example Rocky Horror Picutre Show. Trannies really want to make us believe that this was a pro-trans movie. Mind that the main antagonist is a transvestite alien who is so sex-obsessed that he actually created a muscular man for him that he can fuck.
- Believe them that trannies existed in all cultures. But never read a non-politicized source that talks about this since you might learn that the third gender that existed in most cultures has absolutely nothing to do with the insanity of modern-day troonerism.
Now did trannies in the 50's perceived themselves as today's trannies do? Of course not and it's not difficult to find out if you consume old media. For a very long time there was barely made any distinction between transvestites, drag queens and trannies. All of these things were considered a variation of the same phenomenon. It wasn't not controversial either for a tranny to say at that time that it was just a fetish. Things started to change in the 80's and trannies was now a more defined group under the name of "transsexual". This is the conept we had until the early 2010's: "I was a born a boy but always felt like a woman". Now this is of course considered to be transphobic and being a tranny now means whatever you want it to mean. But I've just watched a snip of a german TV show because there was a tranny called Lorielle London that came out as trans during that time.
The link to the video for those of you who speak German. Here some things that were said:
1) The moderator asks Lorielle if he now feels like a woman. Lorielle said: "Yes, but I still hadn't done the bottom surgery so I'm not completely a woman". He never got angry that the moderator said that "you were once a man". A question that is today haram to ask most trannies.
2) He actually said that the surgery is very dangerous and that he isn't sure that he'll do it. He also said that it should look like the vagina of a real (!!!) woman.
3) He's asked if he likes men or women. He said that he's got a somewhat conservative idea what kind of family he wants: A man, children and a nice house with a white fence. Look look, a tranny who upholds white cis-het patriarchy!
Nowadays all of these things would be considered transphobic even though they were said by a tranny him/herself. Trannies are actually even worse than all other progressives since they don't only try to memory-hole history in general but also their personal history. Ollie is a prime example of this. They start to progessively remove any information that could inform you about their old self. It's only a matter of time until he'll remove all his old PhilosphyTube videos (which are basically all of his videos). He also has to pretend to like things like Eurovision just to maintain the illusion that he was always a brave trans woman and not a delusional straight faggot.
