Layer 3:
The ⁂entire⁂ reason I repressed being transgender was because — due to the shittiest, most Christian-ideologically hampered education in Biology possible in the 1980's & 1990's in Texas schools — I was intellectually yoked with the Natural Law paradigm.
Ms. Penny Oaken, SkyWitch (@skywitches.net):
The ⁂entire⁂ reason I was able to intellectually and emotionally disassemble the dominant cultural transphobic paradigm I had been yoked to — to "leave the Matrix" — was because I took the time and effort to learn ⁂what biology, medicine, and science actually are⁂ & ⁂are not⁂

Because you don't have a political agenda?
Ms. Penny Oaken, SkyWitch (@skywitches.net):
Oh, no, I do have a political agenda, it's just an agenda of minimising bias and maximising Liberté, Égalité, Fraternité
Which is a political agenda!! Just not one that has anything to say to overrule biologists and medical doctors and parents and self autonomy
Gestalt Ersatzsquatch (@emdashel.bsky.social):
Of course! Far be it from me to assume apolity from you, I was more pointing out as pithily as possible it's obviously coming from his political agenda.

To expand on this —
Dawkins is an Ethologist - someone who studies animal behaviours - first; it is what he did his doctorate in, studying chickens.
So he is absolutely 100% conversant with how behaviours in a population shape the shift in phenotype (physical expression) over generations —
Ms. Penny Oaken, SkyWitch (@skywitches.net):
In humans, the likelihood of a H. sapiens child being born with a tail (caudate) is extremely low
Part of that is external environmental pressures, and part of that is behavioural pressures
To wit: ** we burned and threw off cliffs caudate neonates **
Ms. Penny Oaken, SkyWitch (@skywitches.net):
A similar thing happened with left-handed people in several ethnic demographics, because the dominant behavioural paradigm created artificial reproductive pressure against whatever genetic or epigenetic traits that caused lefthandedness as a phenotype
Ms. Penny Oaken, SkyWitch (@skywitches.net):
Dawkins must be extraordinarily conversant with the fact that the Natural Law paradigm — harnessed to "Science" as Social Darwinism — justified
LITERAL AGRICULTURE OF HUMANS
Entire empires were created for the purpose of subjugating non-paleskinned folks worldwide as livestock
Ms. Penny Oaken, SkyWitch (@skywitches.net):
Which brings me to the ember of my anger towards that [radio edit], which is that
Worldwide, we know there are cultures — dominant behavioural paradigms spanning millennia! — who put negative and positive pressure on specific sexual phenotypic modes
To cultivate types
Ms. Penny Oaken, SkyWitch (@skywitches.net):
These behavioural paradigms often — not always, but often! — resorted to genocide of phenotypes that insufficiently met their cultural (or, sometimes, personal) ideals of s*x phenotypes
Ms. Penny Oaken, SkyWitch (@skywitches.net):
Overwhelmingly, in the past millennium, that behavioural paradigm was the Natural Law paradigm — that God Made Adam And Eve, and the Racial Types.
It came to fullest behavioural prevalence 1933-1945.
It is absurd to presume Dawkins is ignorant of these facts.
Ms. Penny Oaken, SkyWitch (@skywitches.net):
Science, medicine, and biology set aside the Natural Law paradigm because it is antiscientific, it is prescriptive, and it exists in these centuries solely to shoehorn particular Christian & European-Culturally-Christian dogma onto Biology.
Ms. Penny Oaken, SkyWitch (@skywitches.net):
I invite you, my audience, for the sake of brevity, to imagine that in this particular post, I am expressing every kind of epithet, scorn, derision, and social repuditation upon Richard "Frick you, Trans People" Dawkins, and I hope history will make his ethics a footnote

Richard Dawkins recently published an attempt to echo the Gender Critical position on human sexes and lend it credence under biology. In this piece, he used the term "miscegenation" to indicate a mating behaviour, and it's very telling that he used it, because the term is flatly racist.
Stef Christensen (@wikisteff.bsky.social):
What in the absolute frick?!!
Did RFK give him some brainworms or something?
He's a biologist!
Ms. Penny Oaken, SkyWitch (@skywitches.net):
He's also an ethologist, and rejected Christianity & its Natural Law paradigm of speciation, which means he has three times the reasons to not be brainwormed this way, BUT
Stef Christensen (@wikisteff.bsky.social):
Dammit. I know he went to the dark side, but I bought his darned books.

@skywitches.net saw your pinned post about synth music. Check out my pal DJ Danarchy. He does music for the Knowledge Fight podcast & he did 2 original songs for me. This is one of them.
...His videos display his programming settings so that might be useful/helpful for you 😁
Ms. Penny Oaken, SkyWitch (@skywitches.net):
Aw cool!!! Yeah I am adding that to a watch playlist ^_^

Ms. Penny Oaken, SkyWitch (@skywitches.net):
"Miscegenation" as a term in English was coined in the 19th century United States, to lend "scientific" credence to White Identity Extremist views that claimed that The White Race is superior etc etc etc.
The term is inescapably, inextricably White Identity Extremist.
Ms. Penny Oaken, SkyWitch (@skywitches.net):
Moreover, Dawkins - throughout the piece - uses weasel words to try to sell a Specified Definition Fallacy about s*x types in Homo sapiens.
Biology doesn't define s*x types in Homo sapiens. We have neither a Holotype nor Allotype - because …
Ms. Penny Oaken, SkyWitch (@skywitches.net):
The immediate previous paradigm of evolutionary biology to our current paradigm set aside the establishment of Holotypes and Allotypes of Homo sapiens.
In ** 1945 **.
EXPLICITLY
Because "evolutionary biology" had been conscripted to bloody, hateful ends for the decades prior
Ms. Penny Oaken, SkyWitch (@skywitches.net):
So when Dawkins — who purports to represent the best interests of the fields of medicine, biology, science, etc
Goes OUT OF HIS WAY to avoid addressing WHY biology lacks a Holotype and Allotype of H. sapiens,
And incorporates the word "miscegenation" into his specious (pun intended) argument,
Ms. Penny Oaken, SkyWitch (@skywitches.net):
We can observe clearly the lineage his ideology descended from.
And the hoods and capes it wore

His idea to designate atheist kids as "Brights" and the elevator uproar, it was only a matter of time before he found something else to be a peepee about. Harris & Dawkins went IDW which makes me think maybe it was only Hitchs death that prevented him from turning too. I'd like to think he wouldn't...
alex䷰trismegistus (@technihilism.bsky.social):
there's also his regular insistence that "mild" libertarianism is no big deal

Kathryn Brightbill (@kebrightbill.bsky.social):
Does "miscegenation" have another meaning that's widely used in evolutionary biology, or does Dawkins use it in his attempts to define a woman because he's got race science on the brain?
Ms. Penny Oaken, SkyWitch (@skywitches.net):
"Miscegenation" as a term sprung from, and irreversibly & inextricably signifies, White Identity Extremism.

The "Anti-Christian Bias" term used today means "Not letting businesses discriminate on the basis of interfaith marriage status, interracial marriage status, marital status, pregnancy, s*x, sexuality, gender, etc"
en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bob_Jon...
Ms. Penny Oaken, SkyWitch (@skywitches.net):
It will pursue repealing, overturning, or nullifying the Bob Jones University decision, as well as any kind of public interest in ensuring that businesses that are offering an invitation to treat to the general public are restrained from using that invitation to discriminate
Ms. Penny Oaken, SkyWitch (@skywitches.net):
It is so the particularly vicious, unreconstructed neoKKK values that hid behind certain sects of Christianity can resume weaponising the government to leverage their bias on others, using a
bad faith claim of discrimination

"straight ppl should be banned from bdsm" yeah, okay, harsh wording. but do you honestly think there's no logic behind this do you want to argue that cishet men replicating patriarchal power dynamics in the bedroom is wholly unproblematic
Ms. Penny Oaken, SkyWitch (@skywitches.net):
… that's not even problematic. That's just sugarposting. Author has neither the power nor the ability to implement assertion as policy, and there is no reasonable expectation her audience has the power or ability. "Freedom Of|From Association" assertion, 10/10
