These are two indisputable facts about our world, if you disagree you are wrong and anti-science:

1. Gender is a social construct

2. Whiteness is a social construct and in particular has been used as a bludgeon against minority "non-whites" in the United States for a very long time

If you do not believe these things you are the problem. You lack education. You lack critical thinking. You are brainwashed.

Both of these social constructs must be challenged. The first is used to oppress women and girls primarily, and the second underpins racist oppression.

Of course, I agree. But in the context of education if you reject the above (which MANY people on HN do) then you're delusional. There is nothing nice I have to say about it, and I know how dearly the HN crowd loves to clutch their pearls about the tone. It is akin to believing the world is flat, a broken ideology that should not be entertained.

Once you accept the simple facts as above, then you can finally explore the consequences.

Gender is obvious and unchangeable. Everything else is a mental health issue, and truly sad.
