What is a woman?

Does that question trigger you? Does that question out me as a certain type of person?

What used to be a simple question that any 4-year-old could answer has now become a political hot potato. The reason is ultimately fiat money. Stay with me, because I can already feel your skepticism. What does transgenderism have to do with fiat money?

The reason is that in a fiat money society the government budget is essentially infinite. And that money is very powerful. But with that power comes a lot of needs. In a normal budget, you have to trade off claims of one group against another. But in a fiat budget, there's no real tradeoff, just the magnitude of the injustice that needs correction.

Thus, every group is incentivized to play victim. The bigger the perceived injustice, the more you'll get compensated through government action. Hence, every group exaggerates their victimhood. It's become something of a contest and it's funny to watch one victim group proclaim bigger victim status than another.

Transgenderism and its claims are another vector to claim victim status. It's what will get influence and more government spending. And questions like "what is a woman" being triggering is a way to claim a bigger victimhood status, and the potential purse that comes with it.

If you follow anything far enough, it always goes back to the money. And we have a terrible, terrible money.
