If I was going to be extremely cynical, I would say that the transgender cultural revolution is the beginner version of this in the United States. Make something so absurd that people with common sense instead of blind obedience to authority self-identity themselves when they complain about men competing in women's sports for example and are removed from positions of power so only the truly obedient remain for whatever they're going to do next, like when the food shortages hit.

If you guys flag this post, that proves my point exactly. :)
