may b it's because in America "anyone can become anything since we are all essentially the same" ideology had to face stubborn fact of African-Americans failing to become cognitively equal while gaining huge voting power, so it learned to overcome any amount of empirical defeats

The US is 2-3% Jewish while UK is 0.5% Jewish. At the helm of movements to move society away from the white and religious nuclear family are Jewish intellectuals. It could be there are fewer Jewish intellectuals in the UK so less intense pressure to hold the line.
At the same time Jews are able to create a lot of wealth. The UK is poorer than the US. The GDP per capita of both places with adjusting for purchasing power was $70,000 compared to $47,000 last year. This is despite the fact the UK has a lot better demographics. The UK is 86% white while the US is down to 57.8% non-Hispanic white from the 2020 Census.
They're in both parties though as staff, funders and paid activists. Keith Joseph was famously Thatcher's "eminence gris". Grant Shapps is highly influential today, though not as much as Mandelson was for New Labour.
But i note that you specifically blame Jewish intellectuals. I don't know about British Jewish intellectuals, but my impression is that British intellectuals in general tend to be a bit less insane than American intellectuals.
Maxim’s Smyrnyi’s tweet is half the story. The other half is the vast difference between European and American Jews in terms of voting behavior and ideological leanings. Experience with Islamism matters. I don’t believe that the disproportionately Jewish writing class is completely sheltered from reality. It’s just that being American affords a greater degree of detachment and distance. Lying with a keyboard is easier if you don’t have to suspect your eyes as the real culprit as much to do it.
In contrast, Negro worship in the US is the state religion, and most Jews live in cities where contact with large amounts of blacks is impossible to avoid. So "detachment from reality" is objectively more difficult to achieve for US Jews than for British Jews.Replies: @Curle

Ban on 'saggy pants' overturned after 13 years in South Florida city

So one day, two African immigrants entered the store, while yelling/singing some rap lyrics. They were the blue/black looking type with African accents. My friend, knowing what to expect since he was originally from Los Angeles, grasped the heavy, wood baseball bat he had under the cash register.
One of them, while grinning, closed the front door, and locked it, while the other one, smiling and yelling his rap song, proceeded to walk up to my friend, still behind the counter, and high-jumped up upon the counter. At this stage, my friend, without saying a word, whipped out the baseball bat, and started beating the shit out of the black guy, as he fell backward, and off the counter.
He saw the other black guy, wide-eyed with fear, unlock the door and run out. The other one followed, screaming like an animal, as my friend got a couple of more swings on him. He said he had to have broken some bones, as he connected pretty well a couple of times. He kept aiming to take the guy's head off, but kept missing. On his way out African thug trashed a few of my friends displays. The store was fairly trashed after all this.
It was unusual for my friend to have been minding the counter on that day, at that time. Usually, his employee, a young girl, was working there, but had called in sick that day. He shuddered to think of what would have happened if she had been there when the African immigrants decided to rob his store, with her there alone. He also felt lucky that he knew enough about black people to have a baseball bat ready to go the moment they entered the store. It was the first and only time he’s had to use it. The Africans were quite large, and he said he wouldn’t have had a chance against them without the bat. He said a typical Brit would have not been ready with a bat. They wouldn’t have known what to do.
Anyway, he never saw them again, and for the next few years, the experience with the Africans worried him, as he noticed more and more of them on the streets of London, many of them pulling street scams, as well as the crime increase related to them, and he went on to close his store, and sell his goods exclusively via the internet.
The last time I visited London was in the early 2000's. My friend said that, thanks to England’s bizarre immigration policy of unchecked increase of Muslims and Africans, that version of London is gone, and it’s never coming back.
It’s a shame that a culture with so much history, with so much blood and treasure spent during two world wars to keep it intact, is going to be eliminated within a couple of generations, as if they’d lost a war against Nigeria and Pakistan.
The saddest fact remains… when Hitler declared war on Poland and Russia, we all should identified it as a local civil war, have stayed the fuck out of it.
All that money spent. All those American/British dead. All those destroyed cities.
For nothing.Replies: @Sam Malone
Maybe it’s because there’s more money floating around in America, both from private donors and taxpayers. That means more colleges (and with better funding), more “foundations” and other NGOs, etc. Also, a larger number of media outlets owned by billionaires that don’t have to make a profit.
For this reason, people can keep pushing crazy ideas until they get some kind of hold on the wider population. This would be a lot harder if educational institutions were more frugal and people within them had to stick to more practical pursuits. The same applies with the media, as well as pressure groups of all kinds – there seems to be more money available to them in the US. If media outlets had to survive on the support of the public, they might stick to promoting things that are sure to get the support of normal sensible people.
It’s not just Britain, transmania isn’t even making as big a stride in Canada. I suspect that ultimately both the US being so huge and now such an atomised place that connection to reality is no longer needed. Teenage girls have lost their minds with social media since it’s a media source created and interacted by and for them and inevitably goes off the rails as Tumblr, Twitter, TikTok and Instagram attest. This was the great sea-change in the internet that led to the ‘Great Awokening’, teenage girls on social media. American teenage girls are spreading this madness on the internet with it’s spread very closely matching how proficient in English people in other countries are.
The other big factor is the medical system in the US. Almost everywhere else these kinds of services are done by state medical providers (At least locally, plenty of private clinic butchers in South East Asia are willing to destroy paying client’s lives) and these are ultimately accountable for what they are spending public resources on and why.
In the US there isn’t the same pressure points or accountability on medical professionals since almost all ‘gender reassignment’ services are private and operate in the gray area of elective cosmetic surgery. The relevant medical associations are also totally insane and controlled by trans activists.
I was watching the MLS final last night, the LAFC ‘ultras’ (The typical obnoxious cringe LARPers you find in the MLS) had a giant trans flag bigger than any of the LAFC flags in their section.
It’s just dumb political tribalism that has much more salience in the US too.
For example here is a famous Swedish investigative programme for the state broadcaster, SVT, which focuses on the responsibility of state medical providers in their use of this treatment for children. That context doesn’t exist in the US so that point of legal and political accountability never explodes.
Full disclosure: I’ve never been much of a soccer fan.(to put it mildly) I do like the fact that the games last two hours, pretty much always. The club’s stadium, in my old neighborhood in St. Paul was nice; one of the million new sportsball palaces built in the Twin Cities over the last 20 or so years. I guess when your town doesn’t have a problem with public order, rioting, etc, you can build such things… oh, wait….Replies: @Reg Cæsar
Pity. Nice to see Gareth Bale get on the field and score.
A combination of this and the fact that there are alot more Muslims as a percent of the population in England. In particular, there are 1.3M Muslims in London (roughly 15% of the city population), which one would assume is where most of the impetus for destructive woke policies comes from. So there is pushback against Trannyism in the UK for the same kind of reason that there is collapse of civil society in Minneapolis. You get 15% of the population with 100% cohesion (i.e., hatred of the existing inhabitants), and you can run the place.
Depends. The Canadian legal system is more pro trans than the US. Anglo Montreal is also probably the North American capital of Trans. Maybe the Asian communities in Vancouver and Toronto are a little more sensible, as well as the good people of Saskatchewan.Replies: @Anonymous

Most of the time people get what they asked for.
Gender dysphoria is a mental illness. Some people might be helped by hormone therapy or even surgery, but that doesn’t make them the opposite sex.
Britain is still about three-quarters white, it has the demographics of the U.S. from about the year 2000. The immigrant vote in America is about to put the white-hating, totalitarian left into semi-permanent power. It is that vote that drives wokeness. The trans shit is, of course, just another oblique attack on traditional white society. The woke element in the left has always been there since the 1960s, it never prospered until the left seized power, with Republican help, through a program of racist colonialism.
Trans is basically quite nutty, and depends heavily on leveraging off a general minoritarian ideological dominance.
And minoritarianism is an “American” ideology. Developed and propagandized by American Jews, to crack open the “oppressive” Anglo US establishment/culture and make it more minority friendly–and soon minority-centric.
Minoritarianism doesn’t make any logic sense. (Nations need to do the reverse–be majority centric–or they do not survive.) So other nations did not develop this suicidal ideology, they have imported it from the huge American post-War dominance of the West. (As I’ve pointed out with my “diversity is the health of the state” it has its appeal to state elites, so there is demand side “pull” and lots and lots of parrotting.) But–to first order–the closer you are to America, to living in the world of the US English language and culture, the more corrupted you will be.
Islamism in the UK is not a powerful force. Muslims in Europe are affected by liberalism more than they affect their host cultures. This is probably especially true in the UK. Sadiq Khan and other “Muslims” in the elite class are “Muslim” in name only. And the problems that Pakistanis cause in the UK are tangential to Islam at most.
In contrast, Negro worship in the US is the state religion, and most Jews live in cities where contact with large amounts of blacks is impossible to avoid. So “detachment from reality” is objectively more difficult to achieve for US Jews than for British Jews.
The proper way to view this isn’t detachment from reality but insulation from reality. In every major city I’ve resided with significant Jewish and Black populations the wealthy Jews were incredibly successful insulating themselves from Blacks and lower order whites. Less wealthy Jews were Kosher rednecks.
The UK lacks successful and inspiring stories of transitions like Admiral Rachel Levine and Olympic Games gold-medal winning decathlete Caitlyn Jenner.
Here is something OT but very much in the Sailer wheelhouse. The Washington Post is starting to report that there is widespread resentment surrounding the rise of “low IQ football.”

Could it be our huge Jewish population? They seem especially neurotic and obsessed with pushing social causes. And they love the idea of destroying the white patriarchy.
I don’t think Israel has this problem but they have more religious Jews and perhaps aren’t interested in destroying their own society.

It’s because the USA is less white. Transsexuals are disproportionately non-white, and non-white communities are more tolerant of transsexualism.
I have a theory that Antifa is the armed faction, to use the Northern Irish terminology, of the democrat party, so its T constituents must be tolerated and even encouraged.
In the UK I have seen videos of Muslims, in Muslim dress, confronting what appeared to be Ts that moved into Muslim areas. So the UK establishment may be wary of endorsing Ts too much lest they upset the Muslims. Muslims also forced local schools to drop the T curriculum.
Current PM Sunak “is a Hindu.[202] His name is Hindi: ऋषि सुनक and Gurumukhi: ਰਿਸ਼ੀ ਸੁਨਕ. He took his oath as an MP at the House of Commons on the Bhagavad Gita.” This might also indicate something about UK policy towards T.
Church of England is still a weird Catholic Mirror with Class and Dignity, despite the weirdness
American Protestants are just Jews using another name as they wait for the Messiah to come
I’d actually go the other way from Smyrni-the American “anyone can become anything” ideology, with or without an assumption of underlying similarity, is receptive to trans ideas. Being able to reinvent yourself has always been a big part of the national mythos, and changing your sex kinda fits into that.
I mean, it’s not like I can turn myself into a dragon (unless I am a boss in a Japanese video game), but that’s part of why the ideology got as far as it did, IMHO

Ironically people from outside the West (the Western Bloc, really, look at Eastern Europe) are much less likely to swallow the trans stuff.
Maybe the USA needs more actual Polish plumbers?
Abortion. American feminists are dedicated to defending the maximalist abortion position and refuse to criticize anyone they view as being on their side, broadly defined…enemy of my enemy, etc. British feminists have a broader societal consensus backing limited, and not extreme, abortion rights. That frees them to defend women and girls against trans men since they know abortion laws aren’t up for debate much less about to change.
Another example of Roe v Wade polarizing our politics.
Disagree. Trans is more common in eastern Asia and South America than the West.

There could have been genuine native American counterparts for these-- Minnesota United FC plays not far from Pigs Eye Landing-- but instead MLS went from cheesy, often singular, World Football League-level names such as the Chicago Fire and the Dallas Burn to generic City FC (including the erstwhile Burn) or borrowing or renting actual club names from Europe such as "Sporting".

The Ukies and Poles are unwittingly swallowing all sorts of trans sausage. They just don’t have the smarts to see it yet.
I think having a Conservative government in the UK has helped, coupled with trans issues becoming an election issue. In the recent leadership election(s) Penny Mordaunt’s support fell apart when she couldn’t properly explain what a woman is. Kemi Badenhoch (is she an iSteve reader?) sprang to fame based on her amazing grasp of basic biology.
No-one from the left dared to criticise Kemi, in part due to her high intersectional pokemon score but also as they could see the potential issues with their target voters. Trans in the very few all girls university dorms is a mounting issue in the Asian communities.
Events such as one of the new, improved type of women being caught in a domestic violence shelter would indicate the rot still runs deep (https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-11392601/Transgender-paedophile-caught-duping-staff-71-day-stay-domestic-violence-refuge.html).
Give it a week.
The language bubble isn’t just bubbly, it also distorts language so badly that I can’t parse what’s going on in the original tweet:
Does “gender-critical” mean critical of “assigned” gender* and/or critical from the point of view of gender and therefore pro-tranny, or does it mean critical of weird gender games and therefore anti-tranny? Whatever it is, the “master” seems to be the opposite, and then the donors seem to be the opposite of that. So I’m guessing anti-, pro-, anti-? But then there are big American donor foundations that would be pro-, so maybe it’s pro-, anti-, pro-.
So confusing.
But, as Derb said this week, “When your basic problem is reality itself, there is no solution.” Or something like that.

*Has any tranny activist anywhere ever explained how it is that vast numbers of people are suddenly being “assigned” the wrong gender at birth? Like, if this is a real problem shouldn’t we retrain all doctors so they are not misled by false flags such as penises and vaginas? Is the fear that if we sat down every practicing doctor for tranny indoctrination it would lead to professional revolt?
Or has any tranny activist explained what it means that you are different from your body? So you are a soul, right? Kind of like in religion? Somehow they never want to address the necessary implications of their statements.
I’d like to know the metaphysics of how all these people (souls) get stuck in the “wrong” body. That would be interesting. Is there a new Affirmative Action angel in charge of incarnation who is effing up every third birth? Seriously, how do tranny activists explain this phenomenon?

In the case of my extended family member who decided she is not female, she was a reasonably attractive girl of normal height and weight, but she had already laid waste to a lot of that through a series of bad decisions before transmania came along.

A full 24% of students now report incidents of self harm, over 12% in the prior survey. I wonder what percentage of these are preteen girls becoming even more dissatisfied with their body image and as a consequence are considering ‘top surgery’ to remedy their dissatisfaction. Of course this path is all very organic and has nothing to do with anonymous Reddit gangs promoting this.

This is important, but it’s a “symptom,” does not explain why NHS England decided to make this change towards sanity. For that matter, what is NHS Scotland doing?
Lots of good comments so far, some bad ones that don’t address the “What’s different between the two?” The only thing I can contribute so far is that England has had a hostile ruling elite since 1066, although that works both ways, everything from its stratagems all the way to brute exercises in power, and the people’s resistance to it.
OK, overt Third Worlders have accumulated a lot of power, Mayor of London, now the PM, they are potentially not as crazy as the Westerners and Jews who are pushing World War T there (the PM was born and raised here, so who knows?).
I wonder if part of the answer might be that UK has a faster feedback mechanism than does the US. The Parliamentary government of UK might induce more rapid feedback generally.
The US system is about to get a major shock in the midterm elections. A massive rejection of the left will propagate up the hierarchy of leftist institutions, hitting first the Dem party, then the media supporting it, then (though to a lesser extent) the NGOs and academics behind the most extreme leftist policies.
But even the best insulated segments, the NGOs and academics, will likely feel obliged to pull back on their positions if they are themselves spurned as embarrassments by both the media and the Dem party.

First of all, is this really true? I was always under the notion that British men fancied putting on dresses more than Americans.
2nd, Britain (or at least England) is small enough that it doesn’t have a Federal system. The entire UK would fit inside California, with room to spare. So it’s more useful to compare US states to the UK. Would you say that World War T is winning more in the UK than it is in Florida, for example?
3rd, does the above headline really prove that “World War T is Starting to Lose in the UK”?
It seems to me that there are skirmishes back and forth but no clear winner. A talk given by a speaker who is critical of transgenderism was the subject of an announced boycott by some Cambridge dons. This is about what you would expect to happen at a liberal university in America (except here Leftists might try to shout down such a speaker and Leftists no longer bother to say that they are in favor of free speech as the UK profs said). Then some wealthy conservative donors to the U were critical of the boycott and threatened to withhold their donations. The pro-T professors refused to apologize. Again, this might have played out in the exact same way in the US.
The UK pro-trans dons are still pro-trans but they have typical British humility because they at least acknowledged that the trans issue was “difficult and complex”. Americans in general tend to see the world in black and white terms and will not admit of any difficulty in their position. Whatever their position is is mandated by God (or in the case of Leftists, by the atheist equivalent of God) and people with other views are devils, period. Any admission of nuance is seen as a sign of weakness or insufficient devotion to the cause. I see this on both sides of all major issues in the US.
This sudden explosion of interest in all things trans is just a storm in a teacup, the result of both sides of political spectrum picking it as their signature cause even though it really involves a very small proportion of people. Actually that might be precisely the reason they homed in on it - it's relatively safe because at the end of the day it doesn't really affect their bases. Everyone can virtue-signal for their chosen audience, pontificate for a bit, then go home and forget all about it.

That actually testifies to British men being more rigid about gender than Americans. Men dressing up as women is only funny if it strikes you as absurd. A British man wearing women's clothing still remains a man, he doesn't for a second imagine he is actually a woman.

Roughly 2 million students are enrolled in higher education during any given year in the UK, representing roughly 3.5% of the total population. In contrast, about 18 million students are enrolled in US colleges and universities each year, representing about 6% of the total population. This is a significant difference between the UK and America and is one reason the woke ideology has a stronger presence in America.
Our education system is toxic for most young Americans, most of them should not be in college getting further indoctrinated. In addition to fewer college students in the UK they have higher rates of science and math degrees compares to the US. In the US most degree programs are in the social sciences, business, and law categories. About 40% of US degrees are awarded in these fields compared to 33% in higher education in the UK. with 14% of degrees in the US come from Science, mathematics, and engineering categories, compared to 24% of UK graduates.
The US would be a far better nation if half the Universities were shut down and our high schools stopped pushing students to prepare for college and instead directed more effort to teaching the girls home economics and how to cook and become hairdressers while teaching the boys more practical skills and trades.
My guess is that it’s federalism and the lack of socialized medicine. Federalism means different laws in different states. Florida can outlaw trans surgeries (on minors, at least) but California can not only allow it, but mandate insurance coverage for it. In the US even some cities get in on the act of offering, or even mandating, insurance coverage for transgender surgeries.
Socialized medicine means that there are fewer private entities pushing trans treatment and surgeries for all the money it brings in. Supposedly “gender confirmation surgeries” – a bullshit Orwellian term if ever there was one – are huge sources of income for places like Vanderbilt, with the added bonus of creating patients requiring lifetime care. The NHS gets a certain amount of money from the UK government, and if it at least attempts to carry out its fiduciary duty to the taxpayers, it’s going to try to ax treatments that are wasteful, useless, and actually harmful.
And over and above all of this is the reality of deficit spending. The US can tolerate huge budget deficits because we have the world’s reserve currency. The ability of the government to spend money without having to tax the citizens to do so enables all kinds of stupidity that otherwise would not exist.
Brits might be less nutty about trannies, but they are even more into negrolatry than Americans. Watch any British show from the last 5-10 years and the black men are all noble and sensitive while the white men are all villains.

Good points.
My guess is that socialized medicine is why it got farther, faster in the UK.
But it is so repugnant to reasonable human sensibility that the backlash came sooner.
In the US, I wouldn't be surprised if the majority of those voting D this Tuesday have literally NO IDEA that this stuff even happens or regard it as some absurd "right wing" conspiracy theory.
That's partly due to federalism and the mishmash of policies that fund the medical system.
Does Britain have an oppression Olympics competition? Or to the same degree? That may explain it. Virtue through suffering.
My guess is that a) academia doesn’t wield nearly as much cultural influence in the UK as it does in the US, and b) atomizing society into ever more discrete oppressed groups has been at the core of our leftist party’s political strategy longer than in the UK.
Maybe another factor is our for-profit healthcare system encourages medical quackery. I am convinced there are enough doctors out there with flexible ethics who are willing to make a buck off of people’s desire for body modification.
Maybe there are fewer billionaires in Britain, as compared to the US, who are personally invested in the tranny business?

Part of the rejection of Transgenderisms in England is a contempt and envy of the US, as a larger more important part of the English speaking world. However, for the same motive, Ireland and Scotland show their contempt of England by being relatively pro-Transgender.
My impression is that the Overton window has widened considerably in the U.S. as far as being able to criticize transgender ideology without career-ending cancellation. I also sense that the medical community and the psychiatric community are beginning to get cold feet about the whole matter, in light of widespread talk about lawsuits by detransitioners, particularly former teenaged natal girls. Rod Dreher at the American conservative recently wrote about the “Trans Tuskegee experiment,” a comparison that might catch on.
“LAFC ‘ultras’ (The typical obnoxious cringe LARPers you find in the MLS) had a giant trans flag bigger than any of the LAFC flags”
Pity. Nice to see Gareth Bale get on the field and score.
“Maybe another factor is our for-profit healthcare system encourages medical quackery. “
Bingo. Doctors, and surgeons especially, are not known for humility.
Academia is more influential than ever now that nearly 50% of kids go to university, Jewish influence is pretty high, the same trends are being pushed by the same people – I think it’s state-funded medicine that’s the difference.
Atm there are big waiting lists for treatment of all kinds, and nurses are about to strike for the first time ever. It’s priorities, and cutting willies or breasts off comes well after breast cancer treatment. Mind, the NHS is still recruiting “diversity managers”.

I don’t know how this plays out in so called civil society, but the stakes for individual activism on up are much greater in the U.K. Here in the US being anti-transsexual may get you or your entire state canceled, but in much of the rest of the West it can land you in prison. For women in the U.K., one that just might house one or more M->F rapists.
See for example the Crown Prosecution Service (CPS) and their “Homophobic, Biphobic and Transphobic Hate Crime – Prosecution Guidance“, for example go down about halfway to “Stirring up hatred on the grounds of sexual orientation” for thought crimes instead of enhancements to potentially real crimes.
Advertising is truly hideous in the US. Advertisers here are more interested in social engineering and brain washing. Perhaps in Europe, advertisers are more interested in simply selling the product.
The lack of socialized medicine in the US (combined with Jewish status) is a big part of why male genital mutilation is still a thing.

The U.S. has been dumbed-down the drain.
Canada is federal, and they socialized insurance rather than medicine itself. On the surface, at least, it resembles our Interstate Highway System– the feds may pay, but the provinces own and run it.
Socialized medicine requires significant taxes (and other sacrifices) on the middle class. You know how that works in America. Lee Kwan Yew could explain why it might have been more appealing to 1948 Britain than to the 21st-century “U” S of A.

A combination of this and the fact that there are alot more Muslims as a percent of the population in England. In particular, there are 1.3M Muslims in London (roughly 15% of the city population), which one would assume is where most of the impetus for destructive woke policies comes from. So there is pushback against Trannyism in the UK for the same kind of reason that there is collapse of civil society in Minneapolis. You get 15% of the population with 100% cohesion (i.e., hatred of the existing inhabitants), and you can run the place.

My friend, who is an American, moved to London, and opened a small gift store in a very nice neighborhood in London. This was the late ’80’s, and most of the Brit’s only had abstract ideas about black people, while my friend was very knowledgeable about them, having come from America.
So one day, two African immigrants entered the store, while yelling/singing some rap lyrics. They were the blue/black looking type with African accents. My friend, knowing what to expect since he was originally from Los Angeles, grasped the heavy, wood baseball bat he had under the cash register.
One of them, while grinning, closed the front door, and locked it, while the other one, smiling and yelling his rap song, proceeded to walk up to my friend, still behind the counter, and high-jumped up upon the counter. At this stage, my friend, without saying a word, whipped out the baseball bat, and started beating the shit out of the black guy, as he fell backward, and off the counter.
He saw the other black guy, wide-eyed with fear, unlock the door and run out. The other one followed, screaming like an animal, as my friend got a couple of more swings on him. He said he had to have broken some bones, as he connected pretty well a couple of times. He kept aiming to take the guy’s head off, but kept missing. On his way out African thug trashed a few of my friends displays. The store was fairly trashed after all this.
It was unusual for my friend to have been minding the counter on that day, at that time. Usually, his employee, a young girl, was working there, but had called in sick that day. He shuddered to think of what would have happened if she had been there when the African immigrants decided to rob his store, with her there alone. He also felt lucky that he knew enough about black people to have a baseball bat ready to go the moment they entered the store. It was the first and only time he’s had to use it. The Africans were quite large, and he said he wouldn’t have had a chance against them without the bat. He said a typical Brit would have not been ready with a bat. They wouldn’t have known what to do.
Anyway, he never saw them again, and for the next few years, the experience with the Africans worried him, as he noticed more and more of them on the streets of London, many of them pulling street scams, as well as the crime increase related to them, and he went on to close his store, and sell his goods exclusively via the internet.
The last time I visited London was in the early 2000’s. My friend said that, thanks to England’s bizarre immigration policy of unchecked increase of Muslims and Africans, that version of London is gone, and it’s never coming back.
It’s a shame that a culture with so much history, with so much blood and treasure spent during two world wars to keep it intact, is going to be eliminated within a couple of generations, as if they’d lost a war against Nigeria and Pakistan.
The saddest fact remains… when Hitler declared war on Poland and Russia, we all should identified it as a local civil war, have stayed the fuck out of it.

This isn’t intended as an all encompassing explanation, but WWT extremism in the US may be a peripheral effect of what could be called the politics of wide open spaces aka (at least recently) Martha’s Vineyard syndrome. I.e., there’s enough room in the US for progressive elites to move away from whatever disastrous ideologically inspired policies they inflict on the masses – “Great Society”, school busing, devastating ’60’s era changes in immigration, affirmative action, severe restrictions on real estate sales that resulted in urban decay, etc., etc., etc. It’s a self-preservation approach similar to that of moguls and industrialists of the late 19th century. The UK has a much higher population density than the US, so it may be more difficult for elites to avoid the consequences of their absurd social policies, and they know it.
Of course, the trans movement doesn’t have the same numbers and geographic element to it that class and race issues do in the US, but it exists in the same political environment. Who knows…this is speculation on my part.
I think the opposition of British feminists (a little crankier and more contrary than American feminists) to trans absurdity prevented it from becoming a strict left vs right battle in Britain the way it is here. That deprived the trans activists of the automatic and unthinking support of 50% of the population. Since the right wing is against it here, everybody* on the left is going to dig in and fight to the last man no matter how obviously false and destructive their narrative is.
*with the exception of some unfortunate parents who got redpilled by mobs calling them fascists because they weren’t enthusiastic about their daughters getting mutilated.

OT: More vax karma. Julie Powell gloats over deaths of unvaxed and regrets Covid didn’t kill Judge Kavanaugh.
Three weeks later she dropped dead aged 49.
She had one big hit book (and a movie based off of it) The book somehow captured the zeitgeist - Americans love amateurs, despise professional expertise. They don't want some French dude with diplomas telling them exactly how to cook and producing results that they can only envy using razor sharp knives and copper pots. A slightly overweight incompetent female much like themselves who burns the onions a lot while working in a too small kitchen with a shitty NY landlord grade gas stove - they can identify with that.
But the rest of her life was a mess. She was never able to capture lightning in a bottle again.

Oops – I didn’t notice the year, it was 2021. She died two weeks ago.
I too noticed this. In this vein, a few years ago when we channel-surfed across some NWSL women’s soccer game, my wife observed that they had about as many rainbow flags in the seats as spectators.
I would never have seen that LAFC flag had I not tuned in expecting an early World Series pregame show on Fox. Rough night for Philly sports fans.
I afterwards wondered if her obvious, to me, orientation to males contributed to her unpopularity with that gang of lesbians in pro soccer. I also wonder, given the nature of this blog, whether her latest incident over drinking represents her Native American genes making their appearance?

Powell was a classic Leftist female mess. She probably drank way too much among other things. Some of her last tweets talk about how she wasn’t feeling well – probably something was wrong with her that led up to her heart stopping.
She had one big hit book (and a movie based off of it) The book somehow captured the zeitgeist – Americans love amateurs, despise professional expertise. They don’t want some French dude with diplomas telling them exactly how to cook and producing results that they can only envy using razor sharp knives and copper pots. A slightly overweight incompetent female much like themselves who burns the onions a lot while working in a too small kitchen with a shitty NY landlord grade gas stove – they can identify with that.
But the rest of her life was a mess. She was never able to capture lightning in a bottle again. Her 2nd book had way too much personal information about her sex life (especially considering she was married and the sex was not with her husband) as well as a description of how she trained to become a butcher (a profession that she did not thereafter actually follow) which did not resonate with the public, not even with her liberal female followers (in the case of butchering, ESPECIALLY with her liberal female followers).

I believe she complained of suffering from “hairy black tongue” disease, which is most often related to very poor mouth hygiene. But in her case, due to all the other medical problems she was having, it might have been a sign her immune system was compromised, and perhaps slowly ebbing away. That’s how her twitter feed reads, anyway.

“our much higher taxes, especially the marginal rates affecting entrepreneurs, our smaller internal market.”
Smaller internal market? Really? Much higher taxes? Really?
I’m surprised by both of these claims. I’ve no proof against them, but the history of rock bands fleeing high tax Britain remains in my memory.
Being ‘under a notion’ needs fact checking every now and then. Most British people are ‘under a notion’ that most Americans are fat ignoramuses in plaid jackets. They are also wrong. Now I have no idea whether transvestism is commoner right or left of the Atlantic; but what that has to do with WW T I don’t know, apart from the argument that men who recognise their autogynephilia for what it is are less likely to drug and mutilate themselves. Nevertheless, the current transgender crisis is mostly about female-to-male transitioning, and I don’t think there is such a thing as autoandrophilia.Replies: @Jack D, @Anonymous
The British (and indeed, world) stereotype of Americans is fat people with guns. That latter thing probably explains this.
British M2F transexuals are very militant. They’ve put several of their female critics (the so-called “TERFs”) in hospital. This has obviously cost them a lot of sympathy among progressives who would otherwise be their biggest supporters.
In America attacking random strangers with your fists is dangerous because they may pull out a gun and shoot you. (See Trayvon Martin). There’s no danger of that happening in Britain.
And of course, if your victim is an actual woman then there’s also no danger that they may get up swinging and start hitting you back (Hollywood fantasies aside.)

My theory: massive players, starting to play early, playing intensely leads to early onset of CTE (Chronic traumatic encephalopathy) leading to lower IQ causing lower IQ professional football. So, the cause and effect are not unrelated but form a feedback loop.
I mean, it’s not like I can turn myself into a dragon (unless I am a boss in a Japanese video game), but that’s part of why the ideology got as far as it did, IMHOReplies: @Charlotte
That belief in the freedom to reinvent yourself-and the usual assumption that reinvention will be a positive thing-may leave Americans particularly susceptible to trans mania. The British, from what I can tell, still have a sense that things like social class matter-and are more or less fixed. Maybe that gives them a certain baseline skepticism about changing sex.

Lots of women drink too much without dropping dead of heart attacks at 49.
The thing that was wrong with her that led to her heart stopping might have been the all the Pfizer cocktails she had. It is by no means a certainty, but it is not impossible either.
People are dying from the shots. It’s getting hard to deny it anymore, although people are still trying.
Two other factors unique to Pittsburgh are important:
1. Geography (there are ravines between a lot of city neighborhoods, so Midwest-style blockbusting is effectively impossible)
2. Fragmented local government (the city proper is 1 of 130 independent municipalities in Allegheny County)
Also, while the city proper went from 17% Black in 1960 to 26% Black in 2010, the change was much more drastic in other municipalities.
For examples: adjacent Penn Hills (postwar suburbia, 4% -> 37% Black), and Wilkinsburg (streetcar suburb, 2%->67%), and nearby mill towns Homestead (??->51%) Rankin (??-> 80%), Braddock (??->72%), and Duquesne (??->57%).

You’re right, I don’t. But then the rabbit hole has come to me from extended family members.
Short needn’t be unattractive. There are many small attractive women. But maybe in this case there is an “intersection”.
In the case of my extended family member who decided she is not female, she was a reasonably attractive girl of normal height and weight, but she had already laid waste to a lot of that through a series of bad decisions before transmania came along. At that point, she may have thought that there wasn’t much left to lose, and since being a female hadn’t worked out so great, she may as well try the New Thing.
In my family member’s case, she was raised by liberals in one of the most liberal jurisdictions in the country, so yeah, she was probably underexposed to actual virility, to put it mildly.
Do you think most of the surgeons doing these grotesqueries are male paraphiliacs? I mean, I would expect the median trans-surgeon to resemble Admiral Levine, yet the only trans-surgeons I’ve ever seen have all been surprisingly (and troublingly) normal-appearing women.

These "medical" treatments were never, ever justified by anything resembling "science" as an educated person would understand it.
It would be unethical and illegal to "experimentally" test "transgender" treatments (what the Orwellians call "gender-affirming care").

From this side of the pond (England), seems to me that part of the reason the Trans thing finds it harder to be taken seriously here is our history of pantomime (not shared by the US). Here the ‘pantomime dame’ – a usually burly bloke in a dress – is a fixture of most Christmas theatre. Indeed the target audience of these jollies – Aladdin, Dick Whittington, Cinderella… – is the family; so kids from an early age get to snigger at hairy-arsed men in drag. Eddie Izzard’s cross-dressing shtick is so successful partly, I suspect, because he’s tapping into a tradition of not taking this ‘habit’ seriously. To discover some of these ‘dames’ actually have their genetalia removed would leave most here rolling in aisles.

One word: Mumsnet. Apparently all the Mums get together on that site and they tend to be pretty protective of their kids.
Quite a few spergy young men are getting convinced they’re women, for similar reasons-you’re at the bottom of the straight male hierarchy (and straight men are evil anyway), why not try something else? Add in the fantasy prone personality and you probably get a lot of the ex-men Steve is talking about.

Bucha was IMHO a Ukrainian crime against perceived “collaborators”, as certainly were the most recent murders in Kupyansk. Azov people posted the footage.

2nd, Britain (or at least England) is small enough that it doesn't have a Federal system. The entire UK would fit inside California, with room to spare. So it's more useful to compare US states to the UK. Would you say that World War T is winning more in the UK than it is in Florida, for example?
3rd, does the above headline really prove that "World War T is Starting to Lose in the UK"?
It seems to me that there are skirmishes back and forth but no clear winner. A talk given by a speaker who is critical of transgenderism was the subject of an announced boycott by some Cambridge dons. This is about what you would expect to happen at a liberal university in America (except here Leftists might try to shout down such a speaker and Leftists no longer bother to say that they are in favor of free speech as the UK profs said). Then some wealthy conservative donors to the U were critical of the boycott and threatened to withhold their donations. The pro-T professors refused to apologize. Again, this might have played out in the exact same way in the US.
The UK pro-trans dons are still pro-trans but they have typical British humility because they at least acknowledged that the trans issue was "difficult and complex". Americans in general tend to see the world in black and white terms and will not admit of any difficulty in their position. Whatever their position is is mandated by God (or in the case of Leftists, by the atheist equivalent of God) and people with other views are devils, period. Any admission of nuance is seen as a sign of weakness or insufficient devotion to the cause. I see this on both sides of all major issues in the US.Replies: @raga10, @Wokechoke, @Graham, @Mike Tre, @Curle, @Peter Akuleyev
I was always under the notion that British men fancied putting on dresses more than Americans.
That actually testifies to British men being more rigid about gender than Americans. Men dressing up as women is only funny if it strikes you as absurd. A British man wearing women’s clothing still remains a man, he doesn’t for a second imagine he is actually a woman.
Americans have always seemed less tied to gender than Europeans. The fact that American women lack some ineffable female charm and even seem kind of mannish was remarked upon by European men decades before transactivism reared its ugly head.
I don’t know the answer to Steve’s title question, but a data point—or rather data series—can be gotten from Google’s ngram viewer if you put in the word “transsexual” or transsexuality-founder Magnus Hirschfeld’s name and restrict the results to “American English” versus “British English”.
In either case you will see that Britain is currently in a bit of a trans trough after an earlier peak, while the US is currently at somewhat of a peak. What does that mean? I dunno. I suppose it gives some credence to the “Britain already peaked” argument, but of course “past performance is no guarantee of future results”, future peaks and troughs are unwritten, etc.
You can even check the curve for other languages/countries. The advantage of Hirschfeld’s name is that you don’t have to know the word for “transsexual” in other languages, which may or may not map evenly to the English usage anyway.
It’s also unfortunate that the ngram viewer only shows one dataset at a time, so you can’t compare the American line versus British line on the same chart.

That’s true, or at least the female impersonator was always a comedy figure in British entertainment, e.g. Danny La Rue, Barry Humphries (Dame Edna Everage), and pantomime dames. I often heard British feminists protesting that drag acts were insulting to women. Any man who contemplates transitioning knows he is going to face a lot of sniggering contempt. It’s a bit like dressing up as a clown – acceptable in the context of entertainment, but otherwise ridiculous.

The Russians said that the Nazis did the Katyn Massacre also. They were lying both times. This kind of “these are not the droids you are looking for” mind bending only works on the weak willed.
Perhaps Britain better maintained the academic culture of its institutions, (Oxford, Cambridge etc.) which is a prophylaxis against moral claims cloaked as academic/expert consensus which are aggressively coerced? The formal culture of debating where one’s skill is honed by taking either pro/con side of an issue and pressing it means that fewer issues are put outside of discussion – one would expect that an advocate for transing children should be able to thoroughly make the case in an adversarial proceeding. The U.S. doesn’t really do debating – one side of an issue gets associated with the respectable or cool side of a divided of society, and opponents get shamed and coerced into falsifying their preferences until that side has 51% in a single dubious public opinion poll. Then the issue is settled for all time.
Also, my guess is that in the UK the right side of the political spectrum is less religious than in the U.S., and therefore in the U.S. every degenerate cultural innovation comes to the scene cosseted in a preemptive force field – viz, that its opponents are forcing their religious beliefs upon people who want to mutilate children and their victims simply by opposing them. The First Amendment, which in its text essentially only prevents the United States from having a “Church of the United States” is twisted to mean that as a matter of law the culture must be actively in opposition to the moral positions of every religion (well, the ones that remain uncaptured by the left).
The British also seemed to have had a culture in which homosexuals were more integrated into the mainstream – stories of schoolboy dalliances at the great Public Schools, or the fussy titled aristocrat who buggers boys on the side while doing his duty to his house by being married to a woman. That perhaps makes it more difficult to smuggle a radical politics into demands for tolerance of homosexuals – if they’re already tolerated with a wink and a nudge, why would you need the radical politics?
Note also the black verbal biarrhea subversion of some fraction of debating in the US, and I'm sure Formally this "take either side at the last moment" system still exists, even if its Overton Window is today very narrow as you implicitly state.

A bit much, but there should be some settling of accounts. Perhaps one of the reasons for for forcing as many people as possible to publically support transitioning for school children is to make as many people as complicit as possible. The more who are complicit the less likely there is to be any reckoning.
This, in particular is not going to age well.

Correct me if this has changed, but I was told in a 1970s book by a couple of U.K. debaters who visited the US that they don’t have this no-beliefs system that the US has. The sort of thing that as a favor had me be one of the judges in a small stakes debate session, but nothing I’d never do myself.
Note also the black verbal biarrhea subversion of some fraction of debating in the US, and I’m sure Formally this “take either side at the last moment” system still exists, even if its Overton Window is today very narrow as you implicitly state.
Your other points are good.
I once saw an interview with an old time NFLer, I think it may have been Art Donovan. He was asked if they prayed before games- he said yes, but they prayed that no one would get hurt. He said (quote from memory) “ We figured God didn’t really care whether or not the Colts beat the Bears.”

That could be true, to some extent, but unfortunately there’s no prophylaxis against mass immigration. Britain is as crazy as any other country in that respect. However, transanity is a new thing. There hasn’t been a decades-long assault against people’s resistance to it, as there has been against racism. People have been indoctrinated for over 70 years against any kind of healthy attitude to race. There was no pro-trans propaganda until a couple of years ago.

Britain’s Whiter demographics need to be considered through the lens of age and distribution. The Anglos are older, more atomized and rural, so their current influence is even more diluted and future influence will wane faster than those sanguine present, age-blind stats suggest. The draconian enthusiasm of Woke enforcement in the UK (esp. Scotland) also exceeds the US (hard to believe but sadly true).

British Jews, like French Jews, tend to vote conservative. Unlike (North?) American Jews, they know which side their bread is buttered.
But i note that you specifically blame Jewish intellectuals. I don’t know about British Jewish intellectuals, but my impression is that British intellectuals in general tend to be a bit less insane than American intellectuals.
Whatever is causing excess mortality, it ain’t the vax. Maybe Covid itself?
The rate of reported death among vax recipients is 0.0027% (not 15%) according to VAERS but VAERS encourages reporting of all suspicious deaths – e.g. you get the vax and then drop dead the next day. Your death might or might not have had anything to do with the vax, but out of every 37,000 doses given, VAERS has received 1 death report which might or might not have been caused by the vax.
I really don’t want to start the Vax war again. Give it a rest. People will or won’t get the vax according to their preference. If people could be persuaded by phony stats on fake websites, they would have been persuaded already.
Don't discard the possibility. Let's look into that.

That actually testifies to British men being more rigid about gender than Americans. Men dressing up as women is only funny if it strikes you as absurd. A British man wearing women's clothing still remains a man, he doesn't for a second imagine he is actually a woman.

It is certainly nothing to do with Europe. Language barriers mean that public opinion, as distinct from elite opinion, in one country has a negligible influence on the others.
The key to this case is probably the relationship of Caius College to Cambridge University. Cambridge alumni invariably make donations to their college rather than the university, whereas corporate donors and philanthropists are more likely to fund university projects. The proposal a year or two ago to remove the statue of Cecil Rhodes at Oriel College, Oxford foundered in much the same way.
I think what happens generally is that Britain comes up with terrible ideas and waits for America to take the ball and run with it, and then Britain steps back and watches with glee.
That’s precisely what’s happened here. Trans mania started in the UK, they successfully got the idea seeded in America, and now (by shutting down one hospital) they can appear to be “reasonable” by comparison.
Trans people have no idea they’re lab rats in a grand depopulation experiment hatched in London, the latest manifestation of Malthus, Julian Huxley and Bertrand Russell.
I hadn’t heard of this before, and that sounds like a good site. But still, in the US such a site would have been pressured by leftwing extortion groups, first at its advertisers, then at its webhost, then its DDoS mitigation, then its payment processors, until it became a “safe space” for trannies (i.e., no one could critisize trannies without being banned). How did Mumsnet resist such pressure? Or are UK tranny groups uninformed in the ways of extortion?

Here in Ireland there is a keen awareness that too much socialism, of the Peronism or Venezuela kind, will kill the golden goose but that doesn’t kill the desire (to varying degrees) for a fairly broad social democratic set-up.

The Cute Creatures Found On Russia’s Weird And Wonderful Regional Flags
Bear with me:
So one day, two African immigrants entered the store, while yelling/singing some rap lyrics. They were the blue/black looking type with African accents. My friend, knowing what to expect since he was originally from Los Angeles, grasped the heavy, wood baseball bat he had under the cash register.
One of them, while grinning, closed the front door, and locked it, while the other one, smiling and yelling his rap song, proceeded to walk up to my friend, still behind the counter, and high-jumped up upon the counter. At this stage, my friend, without saying a word, whipped out the baseball bat, and started beating the shit out of the black guy, as he fell backward, and off the counter.
He saw the other black guy, wide-eyed with fear, unlock the door and run out. The other one followed, screaming like an animal, as my friend got a couple of more swings on him. He said he had to have broken some bones, as he connected pretty well a couple of times. He kept aiming to take the guy's head off, but kept missing. On his way out African thug trashed a few of my friends displays. The store was fairly trashed after all this.
It was unusual for my friend to have been minding the counter on that day, at that time. Usually, his employee, a young girl, was working there, but had called in sick that day. He shuddered to think of what would have happened if she had been there when the African immigrants decided to rob his store, with her there alone. He also felt lucky that he knew enough about black people to have a baseball bat ready to go the moment they entered the store. It was the first and only time he’s had to use it. The Africans were quite large, and he said he wouldn’t have had a chance against them without the bat. He said a typical Brit would have not been ready with a bat. They wouldn’t have known what to do.
Anyway, he never saw them again, and for the next few years, the experience with the Africans worried him, as he noticed more and more of them on the streets of London, many of them pulling street scams, as well as the crime increase related to them, and he went on to close his store, and sell his goods exclusively via the internet.
The last time I visited London was in the early 2000's. My friend said that, thanks to England’s bizarre immigration policy of unchecked increase of Muslims and Africans, that version of London is gone, and it’s never coming back.
It’s a shame that a culture with so much history, with so much blood and treasure spent during two world wars to keep it intact, is going to be eliminated within a couple of generations, as if they’d lost a war against Nigeria and Pakistan.
