The Absurdity Spectrum: When Left-Wing Identity Politics Goes Too Far
To Identify as a Llama...

Let’s Start Off With a Touch of Madness: Absurd Left-Wing Identity Politics.
Out-Lefting the Left With Similar Progressive Philosophy Contradictions!
Why not counter, or maybe out-nut these nutty shenanigans with equally colourful ideas like being 'spiritually realised by experience'. Let's imagine, for example, that even though our human or individual person, 'that does often seem' to have a name and an identity, are all illusory constructs. Take it a step further—eliminate words like ‘you’ or ‘I,’ dismissing them as relics of ‘the old system.’ Everyone could be called something new age, like: ‘XP’ because apparently, that signifies our experiece 'man'. Okay, yes, it's a satirical take on woke culture with its higher levels of awareness, but really it simply lets a few people feel deep for five minutes! Honestly, similar New Age ideas have little to do with being anti-imperial, anti-capitalist, or anything remotely useful. It’s just a way to flaunt some inner ‘essence’ without actually doing a damn thing that matters. Is that out-lefting?
Political Caricatures In Office: Are We On The Right Track?
Strange ideologies and movements are selectively based on oversimplified philosophy. Years ago the term 'queer' was a slur and we were taught to avoid such harsh words when we were kids, but LGBTQ+ has provided a vague re-interpretation: it can mean a political stance, any sexual orientation or gender, as well as straight or in a non monogamous relationship. Yeah, this only adds to the confusion. It’s just as easy to highlight absurdities as it is to create new ones—the cycle never ends.
It's like we see with pronoun pressure groups, change agents can flirt with the idea of legal recognition for their self-defined identity categories such as mythkin or therian but they downplay gender itself a social construct. People want to be legally empowered to identify as a rabbit or unicorn, for instance. Again, what would this actually accomplish? No one finds fulfillment in munching grass all day. This is the colourful hard left! Compelling characters mostly down to their radicalism and over-clocked sense of morality, which can boil over into casual anti-fascist fascist-like control.
The Cost of Creating Our Own Morals and Systems
If we served up my lefty-style philosophy, the one promoting an inner experience that disavows the so-called person, it could create unnecessary social problems. It could be as troubling as the current pronoun pandemonium! Immediately, it would recreationalise promiscuity and hypersexual pursuits. If life is taken to be a transitory affair folks wouldn't care as much about their health. The left have people who identify as many things from dogs, dragons and mixed genders, this shows how progressives aren't necessarily always making progression.
This is Getting Silly Now Time to Stop
We could cause increased risk taking, hedonism, an increased flexibility of morality. Murder could be challenged in court: casting doubt on the framework of mind and physical body identity. If unlawful killing is not proven to destroy vague and unknown principles of soul or consciousness, people might argue that homicide is void ab initio! Void from the start. I'd like to think we'll never give under-developed ideologies the 'light' of day, but we do it too readily.
Such insanity remains possible these days, especially when our MPs with celebritised egos govern inefficiently. They all focus too much on public image, maintaining old Etonion narcissistic arguments, of which the country always follows! However, these people must be neglecting their jobs in Westminster to improve our country. The NHS still struggled in the 80s and 90s and global warming was equally ignored back then. The same tensions existed on TV with the Middle East and Russia.
The only difference we see today is men with a cervix who give birth, and the sacred emerging orthodoxy of pronouns.
