Steve Sailer coined the term ‘World War T‘ to describe the progressive push to turn ‘transgender’ people into a golden group of holy victims. Now that most Americans venerate ordinary sodomites, a new group needs to be elevated to keep the cycle fresh, so it’s on to people who alter their appearance and bearing to ‘become’ a new gender.
Most of this has been circulating in academia for decades, but it’s taken a while for a critical mass of graduates from liberal arts programs to re-enter the broader society and repeat the gender-as-social-construct slogans.
So, why do otherwise ordinary people, who might not even be aware that transgender people exist, suddenly act as if it’s the most important issue in the world? It’s because it’s on the docket as a crucial social issue by the state religion, which is embodied in the progressive spirit. Expressing love for transgender people and striking out at unbelievers is a way to show piety to the spirit of prog.
The first recruits for the vanguard tend to be misfits and weirdos. One of the attractions of World War T to these types is that it allows them to instantly rise in status with little effort. If they grow their hair out, start wearing makeup, and call themselves a woman — ‘poof!’ — they gain a protected status. While in previous times, they would have endured more scorn and humiliation for cross-dressing, now all of prog’s faithful know that it’s their obligation to protect such people and to give them favored treatment.
Out of pity for the combatants in World War T, it should be pointed out that it’s the only safe, official way for them to signify membership in their dark, barbaric, and rebellious religion. The people who undergo extensive surgeries and hormone treatments to mutilate themselves into a facsimile of the opposite sex tend to sacrifice their happiness as well. They destroy part of themselves to act as sacred avatars for the masses, to become magic eunuchs of a sort.
Regret for these sorts of surgeries tends to be sky-high, as are suicide rates. Parents who pervert their children into becoming such magic eunuchs — some of whom are receiving national television coverage and veneration — are often sacrificing the future happiness of their progeny for social status and a feeling of ecstatic holiness in the moment.
Secular people who may have thought they were leaving behind the “God Delusion” often find themselves swept up in these religious manias, because such impulses separated from ritual and orthodoxy tend to spiral into chaotic outbursts.
The creation of eunuch classes is not entirely abnormal in history, nor is according to them special social or religious status (as is often harped upon in gender studies courses in universities). It is abnormal for it to happen in a nominally Christian society (the tradition is more associated with Asian cultures and those influenced by them), but the US is not Christian in any meaningful sense anymore, apart from vestigially.
To fight in this war of words is to gain new meaning in life, with real evildoers and moral heroes. Those who are ‘transphobic’ must be scourged from polite society, forced out of their companies, and censored from prestigious publications. It’s also a convenient way to assault remaining religious groups which have not surrendered entirely to the forces of prog.
Just as the stodgy old priests were getting comfortable with sodomy, it’s time to get them comfortable with lopping off the cocks of eight year old boys, feeding them oestrogens, and telling them that they’re girls. Just when your wife became comfortable with having a few gay friends, it’s time to send a man who calls himself a woman into the women’s shower at the gym, where he will nonchalantly soap his balls while pretending not to be male-gazing all over his fellow ‘women.’
Most of the people who might have been motivated to resist have surrendered preemptively, or otherwise never even realized what was happening in the first place.

If you’re looking for a fairly recent example of castration for religious reasons try the Russian “skoptsy”.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Skoptsy
The comparison is not apt, because the self-mutilation of the Orthodox eunuch is done to attain union with God, which makes it a noble, if misguided, desire.
In most cases, the modern transexual is driven by sexual perversity. Autogynophiliacs are not even transexuals or homosexuals, they just like dressing up in women’s clothes (as Sailor has pointed out). Their motives are the basest, as they’re driven by lust and perversity.

Sailer pushed a particular book on this topic (about people self-mutilating owing to an erotic fascination with women) called “The Man Who Would Be Queen” (http://www.amazon.com/Man-Would-Queen-Gender-Bending-Transsexualism-ebook/dp/B004WKRP84/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1426540237&sr=1-1&keywords=the+man+who+would+be+queen).
Also, whoa:
>The Skoptsy were millenarians, and looked for a Messiah who would establish an empire of the saints, i.e. the pure. They believed that the Messiah would not come until the Skoptsy numbered 144,000 (Rev. 14:1,4), and all their efforts were directed to reaching this total. By 1911, there was said to have been a tendency on the part of many Skoptsy to consider their creed fulfilled by chaste, solitary living.

This societal ill is fascinating in that it, when examined at length, serves to illustrate the modus operandi of cultural marxism.
We must always keep in mind that in the end, cultural marxism is nothing more than a voracious golem unleashed by the power elite upon the masses. The ultimate purpose of that golem, of course, is to systematically weaken and disable any and all structural points of resistance and self determination within those teeming masses.
Think of the various forms in which cultural marxism comes, and consider them with respect to what they end up attacking or negating. Each one is essentially a method of disarming an inborn dissent mechanism. These mechanisms range in scale from those present in individuals all the way up to those seen in cultures and peoples at large, but they all manifest through structural groupings and divisions. Internationalism was designed to neutralize nationalism. Feminism was designed to (primarily) neutralize the family. Anti-racism was designed to neutralize ethnic ties in target populations. Atheism/ecumenism/liberalism is designed to neutralize religious groups.
World War T is primarily an extension of feminism. Its purpose is to defame and demoralize masculinity in such a way that expressions of positive and natural masculine identity become taboo. That may seem absurd, but keep in mind that we have traveled in a few decades from homosexuality appearing on the DSM to homophobia nearly being included on it instead.
Having destroyed or subverted larger cultural groupings, they are tightening the focus (and noose), trying to root out any conceivable resistance on the individual level. Masculinity is targeted, because it presents a threat. While men can be trained to follow orders, they have the mindset and strength to question, resist and ultimately overcome those orders. Women simply do as they are told. Almost every genuine revolution in recorded history, be it cultural, scientific, economic or military, has been instigated and completed by men. The precious few attributed to the fair sex have been either due to powerful mens’ puppets taking the credit or the efforts of an abnormally masculine example.
That said, while WWT may appear to be about getting us to tolerate the lifestyle choices of a statistically insignificant group of people, it is in truth about deconstructing and ultimately destroying masculinity. The way this is brought about, as I am sure you are familiar with (but perhaps not all those reading this are), is by way of the problem-reaction-solution method, aka the Hegelian dialectic.
The first step had been taken by the feminist movement some time ago. That is, to present masculinity itself as a problem.
The second step is to create the perception of a society-wide backlash toward masculinity and gender roles in general. Of critical importance is that in reality, there never was such a thing. However, through media and academia constantly pushing this perception, it starts to materialize on its own. Repeat the lie loud and long enough, and it starts to take on the appearance of truth. What’s more, this synthetic backlash has been given a growing count of teeth over the past few decades. First issued in the form of workplace harassment policies and punitive family court policies, the punishment for masculine identity and expression is expanding to ever more stark and absurd heights: affirmative consent laws, legislation concerning street harassment as hate speech, and edicts to mandate men sitting down on the toilet and keeping their legs together on the subway, to name a few).
These first two steps have the effect of demoralizing men in relation to the masculinity within themselves, presenting that masculinity as not just a moral shortcoming, but a problem with definitive real-world consequences.
This leads us then to the third step – the solution. If masculinity is the problem, then it follows that femininity is the solution.
Pathologizing and making masculinity into a liability has the effect of driving men to take on feminine aspects to compensate for this newly-perceived deficiency. Think of the myriad efforts made by men in the past few decades to expand their “feminine side” – beauty, passivity, empathy, sensitivity, etc.
There is now an artificially created excess demand for femininity. Our cultural and economic overlords are only too happy to not only oblige that demand but even push it further.
Yes, World War T.
By showing men that the further they go along the path of renouncing the “original sin” of masculinity, the better their lives will get. WWT goes beyond normalizing its aberrant behavior, pushing to glamorize it as well. From cartoons like SheZow, to pop stars like Conchita Wurst, Bruce Jenner and Laverne Cox, there appears to be a deliberate effort to make the trans lifestyle a point of aspiration.
At the end of the day, though never forget what the end goal of all this is: control. If little Johnny gets a football and a B.B. gun for his birthday, he might grow up to be a pesky rebel sharpshooter. If he gets a dress and a tiara though, he’ll grow up to be a nice and harmless little confused tumblr drone.

Evolution is heteronormative.
I push this simple, basic truth on the social elites who pretend to be both pro-science and pro-lgbtqwerty. One cannot have it both ways.
Just as the feminists cannot pretend sexual behavior is programmed by barbies and toy guns while agreeing that all other sexual behavior is inborn and unalterable.
