I’m officially coining the term Trans-Umbrellism. Trans-Umbrellism is a trans theory stating that one is trans if they don’t identify with their gender assigned at birth. Trans gender is an umbrella term that covers a wide-variety of gender-variant individuals including: transsexuals, i.e., people who medically transition from one sex to another; non-binary, genderqueer and other individuals with incongruent gender expressions, 3rd gender people from different cultures, crossdressers, drag performers, & MORE!!!!!!

Transmedicalism is a trans theory stating that one needs to experience the medical condition known as gender dysphoria, diagnosed by an objective medical authority and they desire to transition medically.
What Makes A Law Lawful?
So-called sovereign citizens, like the Waukesha Parade attacker Darrell Brooks, frequently ask very silly questions during court proceedings. For instance, “Is that a lawful law?” a statement which, judicially, is meaningless. But, philosophically, it’s worth asking what makes a law lawful? A law is only lawful if it can be enforced. Walter Benjamin astutely pointed out how the use of violence is the means by which the law achieves its ends.

Is Trans Therapy Immoral? | Reaction to Matt Walsh
In this episode of strange philosophy of science, I react to conservative commentator and Christian theocrat Matt Walsh’s belief that trans therapy is immoral. Walsh believes that the belief and desire to transition to a different biological sex is a mental illness and allowing trans people to medically transition is fundamentally immoral. I critique his beliefs about trans theory, medicine, biology, and the morality of trans therapy.
