There was an episode of Star Trek: The Next Generation, about a race of aliens called the Binars. They were a genetically enhanced race with computer processors in their heads, and they were androgynous and apparently sexless, with bald heads and indeterminate body shapes. Their non-threatening appearance was key to their success at stealing the Enterprise from space dock.
Have they been with us here on Earth, and have they been participating in the election? Or, have they been altering certain leftist humans slowly, replacing our usual friends with weirder and less sexy versions?
Something strange is going on, if this tweet from prominent commentator James Lindsay is any indication.
I know, it’s confusing. How is it possible to have categories of voters other than “male” and “female,” first of all? It is not possible, of course, but America has been playing in the land of make-believe for at least 10 years about human anatomy. We’re supposed to believe that there are “transgender women,” but those are just men who call themselves women (and vice-versa for “transgender men”). Apparently all you need to do to fundamentally change reality today is slap on the opposite sex’s clothing and throw tantrums whenever someone recognizes that you’re wearing a costume.
But wait, there’s more! Have you heard of the “non-binaries?” These are an even more special subset of the alleged transgender community. Usually, but not always, “non-binary” people are women (who look just like yesterday’s plain old lesbians) who claim to be neither male nor female.
Reader, don’t sweat this too hard. You can’t make it make sense. Just roll with me.
So apparently the non–binaries are 1 percent of the population. Of that tiny sliver, 73 percent voted for Kamala Harris, while 21 percent chose Donald Trump, which admittedly is surprising.
Let’s see whether X/Twitter users are playing along with this fun insane asylum game!
Tee-hee.
