Deep dives
Gender ideology as a religion
Gender ideology shares similarities with a religion as it requires faith, has doctrines, dogma, and even its own form of iconography like pronoun pins. It demands belief even when it defies common sense and reality. Its followers adhere to it without questioning or examining its contradictions. Additionally, like a religion, it establishes a hierarchy, threats, and an ultimate endgame. The purpose of satire is to mock these religious-like elements in order to expose the absurdity and potential harm of gender ideology.
