New York Democrats have passed legislation to replace the terms "mother" and "father" with "gestating parent" and "non-gestating parent" in state law.

### NPR "Y'all" Study, Linguistic Inclusivity and Cultural Bias

NPR recently aired a segment on the word "y'all," claiming its rising popularity among Gen Z is due to its gender-neutral and inclusive nature. The report linked the term's origins to both Scots-Irish settlers and "enslaved people," a linguistic shift from the term "slaves." Critics of the report argue that NPR is attempting to politicize a common southernism and use it to push a specific social agenda while ignoring the term's long-standing cultural roots in America.

During an interview with Charlamagne tha God, Kamala Harris stated that the issue of reparations "has to be studied," a response that critics say mirrors decades of inaction by Democratic leaders. The discussion touches on the perceived lack of delivery for Black voters since the Obama administration, which some argue focused more on social issues like gender-neutral bathrooms than economic justice.

TikTok influencers are promoting "gender creative" or "gender neutral" parenting, where children are encouraged to determine their own gender identity through conversation rather than biological sex. A poll from Brown University indicates that 38% of students now identify as LGBTQ+, raising questions about social contagion. Critics argue these parenting methods and social media rewards create a loop that encourages children to adopt non-binary identities.

The TSA is implementing new "gender-neutral" screening policies to prevent transgender passengers from being flagged for additional searches.

The 1980s mullet hairstyle is reportedly making a comeback, described as "business in the front, party in the back." Media clips from NPR promote the look as a gender-neutral fashion choice, while critics in the montage suggest the trend is part of an elite effort to promote a genderless society.

- **Transcript:** https://search.noagendashow.net/episode/1470-clubbing-center/chapter/marxism-and-language-control-the-comrade-solution.md

The push for specific pronoun usage is characterized as a Marxist power game designed to reorder social hierarchies and implement mass programming. Since pronouns are typically used when a person is not present, the enforcement of these rules is viewed as a form of linguistic mind control. A satirical solution is proposed to use the term "comrade" for everyone, as it is inherently gender-neutral and egalitarian.

NPR has repeatedly aired a story about the resurgence of the mullet hairstyle, highlighting a Michigan stylist known as the "Mullet Queen." The report frames the haircut as a "genderless" style popular among non-binary people and traces its roots to Native American culture. Critics view the promotion of the mullet as part of a broader effort by elites to encourage a "wimpified" or gender-neutral aesthetic.

The Canadian national anthem, "O Canada," has been revised to include gender-neutral language, changing the line "in all thy sons command" to "in all of us command." This shift follows a broader trend of inclusive language updates in Scandinavia and North America. Critics of the change, including the hosts, argue the new phrasing disrupts the traditional meter and spirit of the patriotic song.

The cultural shift toward gender-neutral terminology is mocked through the invention of the term "seeding person" as a male counterpart to "birthing person." The importance of Father's Day is noted as having increased in recent years. This follows a period where both Mother's and Father's Day were treated with less sincerity in public discourse.

Senator Cory Booker is criticized for using gender-neutral pronouns like "they" when referring to a singular future president, which the hosts label as "virtue signaling." An anecdote from a former Boeing employee illustrates the long history of such linguistic shifts in corporate and media environments. The discussion explores the perceived awkwardness of replacing "he or she" with "they" to satisfy "political police."
