The ultimate expression of the upshot of this inane behavior can be seen in who was elected president.

I know, and I was really (half) joking. I mean, it's true that the current form of liberalism is economically conservative, but most of them would never admit that so they aren't consciously compensating. It just baffles me the lack of common sense we see with some of it. Like in the examples you mention, the news story about the baby recently. The recent story about the baby is one of those where we need to recognize that sex and gender are two different things, stop conflating them, and realize there is a legitimate reason to put the sex of a baby on a birth certificate because at that point it is a matter of biology and not a social construct.

I also just don't condone violence of any sort, so any of that is just ridiculous. Utilizing violence is anti-democracy, doesn't matter what your ideology is. If you are utilizing violence to push an agenda then you don't fit in with any democratic ideology.
