My take is that to some they (Dee Snider and Paul Stanley) are oversimplifying a complex issue to an offensive degree, and to others they are talking common sense.

See Snider's statements afterward talk of being a proud centrist Dad, and in America today why that is a good thing.

In Snider's case, I sense he's trying to be on the right side of history and doesn't completely get it, and has said he's open to education on the subject.

Please don't cancel me. Or do. Whatever is the correct response.

I've figured out a way to game the system.

From here on out I'm only making jokes to people I'm in the room with. Unless they're recording video.

I shall remain uncancelled

what Paul Stanley said was much more ignorant.

I am not sure Steve Albini knows what he is talking about either, on many subjects, but that's just me. I guess Twitter keeps on twittering inconsequentially, and the world keeps on turning .

yeah, it's Dee's enthusiastic "well said!" that has got him in bother.

A recording engineer and bassist is #1 place to go for information about recording and bass. The failure is the expectation that everything else will align.

 

[Kermit McDermott]

This whole gender thing is a minefield.
Glad I'm not on twitter.... or famous....or controversial...or listened to....
# you know you're getting old.

I've read that Paul Stanly tweet 4 times now and I don't follow it. Am I dumb or right in thinking this is some really bad writing.

 

[Kermit McDermott]

Its all Brian Molko's fault.
All his crazy gender bending debauchery in the 90's altered the future.

On it goes....

Dee Snider: "So I hear I'm transphobic. Really?"

The Twisted Sister frontman cites his long history as an LGBTQ+ supporter after the San Francisco Pride Parade nixed his scheduled performance.

He is also a big supporter of BLT's.
But not a big fan of BTS or IBS. Which he might have gotten from his love of BLTs.

It is my understanding that he thinks actual children are being subjected to and pressured into being trans kids.

.
but the point is, is that it's not really happening in reality.


Is that right?

It’s not happening like that in reality. Substitute the word ‘gay’ for ‘trans’ and it’s the same rhetoric we’ve seen for decades.

Ok gotcha.

Thought as much.

It's actually a bit more complicated than that - I read this book a few weeks ago, and it made for some harrowing reading -

https://www.theguardian.com/books/2023/feb/19/time-to-think-by-hannah-barnes-review-what-went-wrong-at-gids

-as ever, nothing coherent seems to emerge on Twitter or other comparable sources, so I don't engage with it, it seems to extrapolate unhelpful headlines, leaving a strange space for even further unhelpful discourse - it's always comforting to know there are people doing the actual research in the background. I would almost hesitate recommending the book, as it's very depressing, and the world can be heavy as it is, but it is very, very rigorous.

I suspect I am "cancelled" anyway, but I am okay with that, it's more peaceful on this island .
