Social constructs! In fact they are more reliant on a society than the original constructs. A complex society, one big enough to give you your pills, your surgeries, and constant reinforcement of your new identity.
Blackness is now defined as an identity, but not one based on race, because, according to these soothsayers, race doesn't really exist. Nevermind the bible, genetics, and various medical issues we may suffer if we don't pay any attention to race.
But doesn't that make it more of a social construct, not less? Now, the identity is constructed almost entirely via interactions with other people, with nothing one can reference as solidly 'self'.
Now, of course, reality keeps leaking in, as, obviously, white people who identify as black are generally not accepted as black- unless they do a really good job with melanotan II, other cosmetic changes, and are good at faking their backgrounds.
It takes real social pressure for a lot of this stuff to even occur to people, and saner minds know it's probably a good idea for people not to know about it. This is why we are having such fights around schools these days. Your children could grow up not knowing about all this stuff, and have a normal life, but now we've got pronoun evangelists in the schools bent on making sure every kid is exposed to this nonsense.
The new lie must be promulgated, even if it eats into the old one, as feminists are finding out. The transgender can achieve whatever it was feminists were fighting for by mere declaration. Trounce them in sports. Berate them in lesbian hook-up apps for not wanting to hook up with them. Get them kicked out of a Pride parade.
Is there no way we can stop having this 'conversation'? Probably not. I think the bureaucrats saw how Occupy Wall Street fell apart, and they've decided to push this junk as hard as they can. It's easier to control us that way.
