Thank you. An interesting thing is that the true transsexual community appears to be largely made up of people that transitioned and left the trans community, and rejoined society in a better way. Some never associated with the trans community per se, and I didn't blame them.

Some went full stealth, but I saw no hope of that working for me and it didn't prove necessary anyway. I can't speak for anyone else in this matter, but when I was in that community, I looked for ways to serve there. When I left, I looked for ways to serve wherever I was. With transition out of the way that was easier to do, and for some reason being an "out" transsexual did not prove to be an issue.

Well, OK, this is California, but still, people are people. Being here did help at first. Post-transition I've been to Florida and I've been to Washington DC, years ago. I met somebody "important" in DC. Would it be the same today? I'm not so sure. I feel like things have gone backward, not forward. Downward, anyway.

There is a spiritual journey that goes with this. I wish I knew more about the others I used to know, and if they found themselves on such a spiritual journey as well, but we all went our separate ways and dissolved into society.

I won't say too much more here about that journey. I've written quite a bit about it between my blog and the comment sections of others. I will say that I have belonged to two "conservative" churches (I left the earlier one in the wake of covid hysteria), and been a member of their choirs. For some reason, I find that funny. I am not as shy as I used to be, and I like to sing, never mind what I sound (or look) like. When I first saw myself on livestream I did move to a less visible spot, though. Yikes!

I need community like most anyone else, and this kind works for me. You'd think it couldn't work, not with _that_ kind of church, but it does, mostly, and in spite of what happened in the past. There are bumps in the road. But people can be found there, some, anyway, that are as well equipped to face the moral crisis we are facing as anybody on earth.

I would love for others that are awake to what is happening to also see the bigger picture that I have come to see. I don't think it is a hallucination. But I am not trying to "convert" anybody. These are things that each individual has to discover and choose. I try to point out less-obvious possibilities. There are so many people working so hard to stop what is happening, but without really understanding why it is happening.

And I could be wrong myself. But I have discovered that I can be wrong about something, recognize and acknowledge my error, and receive help from "somewhere". There's more to this existence than meets the eye. And there are more ways to solve difficult problems than by trying harder and harder. How many thousands of years now have we been doing that? Sometimes beliefs need to change. Or transform.

Am I nuts? Maybe. If anyone thinks so, or not, you are invited to drop by my place (i.e. my blog; please don't show up at the door). Maybe we can clarify something together.

The Frankfurt School adapted Marx’s theories on revolution to include Freud’s theory of the subconscious. The Cultural Marxists’ main focus was to reshape the subconscious of Western men and women and thus create new type of person: one who would react passively to provocations of all kinds.
