‘Equivalent Of Saying 2+2=0’: Lawmaker Warns Trans Thinking Threatens Democracy

A longtime lawmaker is warning that the transgender ideologies being pushed onto society these days are a threat to the freedoms provided by democracy.

Graham Stringer, who is the Labour member of Parliament for Blackley and Broughton wrote a commentary for the Daily Telegraph that charged such verbiage used in the campaign is shutting down legitimate political debate.

He cited a recent report from the Institute of Economic Affairs, “in which political transgenderism had been denounced as ‘an ideological assault’ against liberal democracy,” according to a report from the Christian Institute in the United Kingdom.

Will this presidential election be the most important in American history?

“Asked for my view on the transgender question at a recent meeting of my local Labour Party, the answer I gave was simple: any definition of sex has to be based on biology. A female has two X chromosomes, and a male has one X and one Y chromosome, which I had assumed was merely a straightforward fact. But the response from one Labour member was that I was a brave man,” he explained.

Today, he said, “Stating a scientific truth can be so controversial as to lead to your cancellation.”

He said transgender ideology supporters have created a “cancel culture.” That, he said, is “where opponents are denied a platform and attempts are made to deny them their livelihood.”

Stringer, a lawmaker since 1977, said the belief system promotes “anti-scientific views.”

“My colleague, the Labour MP Dawn Butler, stated on TV that ‘a child is born without sex.’ This is the equivalent of saying 2+2=0. Every cell in a baby’s body carries the definition of its sex,” he explained.

Then there are those who simply ignore biology.

Those are men who claim to be women and compromise “safe spaces for women,” the report said.

“People who don’t think that biological males should be allowed in these ‘safe’ spaces are regularly labelled transphobes and Terfs,” he charged.

The belief system that denies biology right now “has polluted our politics and democracy enough, he said.

Stringer warned common sense is required.

“If Eddie Izzard wishes to be known as a woman, that’s a choice that should be respected. But it doesn’t change the fact that, biologically, Izzard remains a male,” he said. “Ignoring biological facts leads to the hideous placing of male rapists in women’s prisons. This is an extreme example of the broader attack on women’s right to have safe spaces.”

He then put the fight over terminology in perspective: “I will leave the last words to Lewis Carroll: ”When I use a word,’ Humpty Dumpty said in a rather scornful tone, ‘it means just what I choose it to mean – neither more nor less.” What is often missed from this dialogue with Alice is Humpty Dumpty’s final sentiment that what matters is who is to become the master. Carroll understood that, if words can mean anything, debate becomes meaningless. The transgender ideologues imagine that in pursuing this course, they will end up in authority. The rest of us need to ensure that we don’t end up through the looking glass.”

IMPORTANT NOTE TO WND READERS: Today’s ruling elites champion policies every previous generation of Americans would have regarded as outright evil. At the top of that list would be the supremely radioactive issue – illuminated by the hit summer film “Sound of Freedom” – of the widespread trafficking and sexual slavery of children, as well as the shocking prevalence of pedophiles in the United States of America. Indeed, the U.S. is the largest market for child sexual abuse in the world.

According to Tim Ballard, who has led many missions rescuing sex-trafficked children around the world, the Biden administration actually ENABLES AND PROMOTES the trafficking and sexual slavery of children with its horrendous border policies, its push for early sexualization of children, championing children’s “right to consent” on everything including mutilating transgender surgeries, and so on.

“Pedophiles are sitting back right now,” says Ballard, “and going, ‘We’ve been pushing this agenda for decades, and now we don’t have to push any more, because the left is taking care of it for us’ – IN AMERICA!”

Ballard’s concerns are confirmed by Tara Lee Rodas, a Health and Human Services whistleblower who recently testified before Congress that under Joe Biden, “THE U.S. GOVERNMENT HAS BECOME THE MIDDLEMAN IN A LARGE-SCALE, MULTI-BILLION-DOLLAR CHILD TRAFFICKING OPERATION.”

But that’s just the beginning. The whole, secret criminal mega-enterprise of child sex trafficking and the global elites’ affinity for pedophilia is exposed as never before in the August issue of WND’s critically acclaimed monthly Whistleblower magazine, in a groundbreaking issue titled “THE NEW AMERICAN SLAVE TRADE: How the Biden regime enables and promotes child sex trafficking in the U.S.A.” WHISTLEBLOWER is available in both the popular print edition and a state-of-the-art digital version, either single issues or discounted annual subscriptions.
