David French: "In The Transgender Debate, Conservatives Can't Compromise The Truth"

This is completely right.
It's hardly even worth talking about anymore.
   So here's a meta-issue, also worth harping on: only the right seems to be concerned with the truth in this disagreement. The PC left uses a cloud of overlapping sophistries to try to cobble together a case for their pre-determined conclusion that men can be women (and vice-versa). That should concern absolutely everyone left, right and center. To abandon our commitment to truth and reason is the end of everything. For most of my life--IMO--it's the right that's tried to force its metaphysical fantasies onto the rest of us in the form of religion. Currently the progressive left is doing the same, but without the religious component. One could say: without the supernatural component...but I think that's inaccurate. The progressive left is committed (sometimes explicit, sometimes not) to various versions of cultural relativism and social constructionism, which views are, basically, magical / superstitious. They're just less honest about it. But both views survive by throwing up smokescreens of ambiguity and carefully swerving back and forth among (a) claims about things, (b) claims about beliefs, and (c) claims about words.
   Anyway. That's a different rant, and I've got work to do.
