"Men can get pregnant"

And that is the articles point.

But they won't say Democrats. Or the young kids controlling Kamala Harris.

It's 1984, academia and the Left can't say that.

The people chose Trump over 1984, they fought back.

As the article says "Trump’s America bears little superficial resemblance"

Can HN read the article or just off topically repeat what the bureau is telling them?

No silly, thats not the same. You have to be smart to understand the difference. Propaganda only works on other people.

Trans men can get pregnant, yes. How is that 1984? That's a fact, you can verify it.

    The Orwellian part may be “men” and “women” changing from sex categories to gender ones, more specifically the ‘Newspeak‘ conflation of sex and gender into a single concept such that for some people it has become difficult to discuss them separately: “Not only can Trans men become pregnant, they can do so while being biologically male, too”.

    (Not attempting to debate Trans, only pointing out the 1984 type changes to how people must now think about sex and gender to avoid ‘finding themselves accused of crime-think and a trip to Room 101’ /s)

      I mean... yes. I just think it's weird insisting that someone that looks like a man, talks like a man, acts like a man is actually a woman because if you take a sample of their saliva, run it through a very expensive machine for a few days and decode the results with a supercomputer you can group them with most other womens on that basis.

      I feel like the "new" definition of man is just that much more natural than the "biological" one, even ignoring the intersex people which are impossible to categorize with the latter.
