My opinion of Transgender “compelled speech”

My Take on Transgender “Compelled Speech”

Watch my discussion here

Let’s cut through the noise—compelled speech is linguistic tyranny, plain and simple. I refuse to accept the idea that gender activists, or any group for that matter, should have the power to force people to speak in ways that violate linguistic tradition, personal beliefs, or even just common sense. Language is organic; it evolves naturally over centuries, not by ideological fiat.

Linguists, psychologists, and some of the brightest minds of our time—people like J.K. Rowling and Elon Musk—have spoken out against this. They see the dangers, and so do I. When governments or institutions demand that we alter the way we speak, we aren’t just talking about politeness—we’re talking about control. This isn’t about inclusivity; it’s about coercion.

The Slippery Slope of Compelled Speech

History tells us that when speech becomes regulated by force, freedom shrinks. What starts as a simple request to use someone’s “preferred pronouns” quickly morphs into legal mandates and social persecution for those who refuse to comply. The moment we allow others to dictate our words under threat of punishment, we open the door to totalitarianism in the name of social progress.

Compelled speech is dangerous, not because it asks for kindness, but because it demands obedience. And when obedience to ideology becomes a requirement for participating in society, we’re no longer talking about a free world.

Addressing the Smear Campaign

People love to throw around words like “transphobic,” “homophobic,” and “racist” whenever someone questions the prevailing narrative. But let’s set the record straight:

1. My stance against Proposition 8 (2008) – Watch here

2. My criticism of the LDS Church and teen suicide rates (2010) – Watch here

3. Why the Old Testament isn’t law (2013) – Watch here

4. The reality of respect as a two-way street (Compelled speech debate) – Watch here

If challenging compelled speech makes me a target, so be it. But I will never apologize for defending free expression. Respect is a two-way street—forcing language changes isn’t respect; it’s authoritarianism with a smiley face sticker.
