A Heretic's Manifesto: Essays on the Unsayable

Product Information

Organisers of this attempted coup claim that the Hungarian government has violated certain norms and the rule of law, and therefore cannot be trusted. By ‘EU values’ what is really meant is hyper-federalism, multiculturalism, diversity and the mainstreaming of gender-identity ideology.

They discuss the philosophical clash between liberalism and transgenderism, the killjoys who want to limit you to two beers a week, and the tragic death of Ursula von der Leyen’s pony. Activists assume that frequent repetition of this mantra will make people forget about biological facts.Some of the transgender and nonbinary participants in Gender Wars have now written to Channel 4 to complain that they were misled about the nature of the documentary and that their views were misrepresented. But, as is clear in the film, the end result ‘fully includes people’s views, experiences and thoughts on both sides’ – exactly as interviewees were promised. The plot to deprive Hungary of its rightful turn to take the presidency is not just about Hungary itself. But there can be no better demonstration of privilege than transwoman Gina Gwenffrewi complaining about once having to leave a pub a little earlier than intended.

These attempts to prevent a Hungarian European Council presidency are merely an intensification of their long-running campaign.The British Medical Journal denounced the authors of the Great Barrington Declaration as ‘merchants of doubt’, as if doubt were a bad thing; as if doubt is not in fact the foundation stone of Enlightenment. The lesson from Gender Wars is that when fantasy is allowed to overrule reality, all possibility of rational discussion is closed off. We see a pregnant woman on the front of this month’s Glamour magazine and they say it is a ‘pregnant man’. Remi and Brendan discuss the truth about racial inequality, the dangers of racial identity politics and how Africa can realise its potential. Most of the government’s core objectives, such that they can be seen or even remembered these days, do not fit neatly into one departmental box.
