culture just moves scary fast these days.

like women in my grandmother's and mother's generation fought to get tampon machines in their bathrooms as young women. now adays if you celebrate this feminist victory it's considered TERF behavior because having a period isn't required to be a female and celebrating such excludes trans women from femininity.

notice that as trans folk turned on "TERFS" the whole bathroom rights and other agenda items just poof'd from the democratic lexicon. dont bite the hand that feeds u hormone pills.

As information disseminates so does the culture change.

It's only going to get faster, and the younger generations will be able to adapt to the changing culture better than we can. So buckle up. My/our generation was the transition, where we started as kids with no computers and now we're working almost exclusively on computers. The next generation never had to learn, they just existed around it, and existed around the changing culture, and it's going to be scary how efficient they are going to be. I don't buy into the "the next generation will always be worse" mentality. I think they're going to outdo all of us pretty quickly.

Watching how quickly the lexicon of cool phrases comes and goes with young kids i can say i truly believe it moves so fast it hampers communication. not intragenerational, but intergenerationally. its simply too fast. there is a point of diminishing return with culture speed, and i think we're closer than u might think we are.

I think that the rate of change will remain pretty much steady from now on. We've basically reached the cap to how fast communication can get, and so the rate of culture change will cap as well. I just think our next generation will be better adapted to it, so they will see culture change as normal rather than the previous understanding that it's largely static. So these disagreements about "words don't change!" will largely be a thing of the past.

and who knows? Maybe it quickly reaches a stable equilibrium where 99% of cultural features don't change but when some change is needed it happens incredibly fast. So instead of seeing things like gay or trans issues last 2 decades it's basically settled in a year.

I dunno. Just spitballing. Human psychology is also just inherently resistant so it's possible none of this happens and we keep seeing things in largely the same way. Physical separation may prove to be the limiting factor to true cultural change, and since you can't really get faster than the jets we have now there's not much reason for that to stop being an impediment.

in todays chapter of the Cancel JK Rowling saga

https://www.yahoo.com/news/people-denouncing-possible-harry-potter-221640590.html

"fans" of her work are "mad" that a many time over multi millionaire may get some more money. as if that will change her opinions which 99% of people arent upset about. and u get universe expansion out of it. but no, stop her from getting royalties ....

the real danger here isnt that JK gets money, or says more things about how periods are empowering, its that this is yet another harmful expansion of her universe. cursed child and the fantastic beasts films have been terrible to the original works. and im more concerned with her retconning of characters on twitter than i am of her transphobia.

An article featuring a bunch of twitter comments and the yahoo comments are disabled

I wonder what yahoo comments would have said on the topic with substantially greater volume 🤔

The wealth inequality will increase

Because the strongest have access to infinite information via the web

While the weakest are poisoned by far left cultural propaganda
