Progress

You know the Nazis?”

“Weren’t they those nutcases pushing crazy ideologies with mad stuff like pregnant men?”

“No, they didn’t quite get to reach that level of madness.”

“Oh yeah sorry, I forgot. That’s us.”

“That’s right. Which isn’t to say there’s a value judgement involved here - that it shows we’re better or worse than them or anything. If the Nazis been given enough time to develop further then there’s every chance they could also have ended pushing the desirability of the idea of pregnant men, but of course they were cut off mid-stream, so to speak, and so didn’t get the chance to progress that far. 

But we have progressed that far: switching from mother to “birthing person” for example, like the Democrats in the US are doing. It’s just that we have the advantage on them in terms of how time and far we could progress ideologically. But again there’s no value judgement implied in terms of us supposedly being better or worse than the Nazis.”

“Oh I know. I wasn’t under the impression you were implying anything along those lines.”
