There are predators all around us. Human predators. We find it easy to recognize danger in wild animals like wolves and bears. Well, most of us do. If you’re looking for exceptions just scan the news for stories about wildlife encounters in Yellowstone National Park. Every year dozens of tourists (at least) seem to believe they’re at Yogi Bear’s Jellystone instead of the real thing. Human visitors try to get up close and personal with grizzlies and bison, and they pay the price.
But people have a much harder time recognizing predators of their own species. Despite our obsession with the true crime genre, the majority of everyday people seem largely unaware of when someone is wearing a “mask” of gentility and respectability. Predatory people try to blend in with “normies” for obvious reasons: it’s easier to snare a target who can’t see them coming. Serial rapist and killer Ted Bundy crafted his image with the use of props to appear unthreatening to his female targets; he drove a VW bug, which was supposed to make people think he was a “square” who liked sensible and economical cars. You know, like a professor. He also hobbled around on fake crutches, like a bird feigning a broken wing.
Socially predatory people have found a boon in the modern transgender mania. Men who are up to no good figured out that they can fool plenty of people—particularly empathetic women—into believing they’re soft and gentle by wearing makeup and acting in a way that they think makes them appear feminine and non-dangerous.
Take trans activist Jeffrey Marsh. He wears sparkly makeup and talks in a simpering, lispy falsetto when he records his seemingly endless social media messages about “trans rights” and what terrible bigots parents are who don’t accept their child’s declaration of being born in the wrong body. Indeed, he’s very, very keen to talk to such children alone without their parents’ knowledge.
Marsh clearly believes that his sparkle-uncle-aunt-drag routine will lull the gullible into thinking of him as safe and warm, and he’s probably right. But there’s an important lesson here: if someone goes out of their way to present themselves as loving and cuddly, it may be a disguise for less savory motivations.
It’s impossible to tell how many people are fooled by this act, but it’s clear that many are. Take a look at one of his latest videos where he encourages people to cut off their pro-Trump family members. Marsh is adept at what’s called the “narcissistic reversal.” That’s when someone who bullies or mistreats people presents himself as the actual victim. Marsh is a master, co-opting the sensible advice about how to protect yourself from abuse and bullying by presenting himself and people like him as the victims of social bullies.
I don’t know about you, reader, but every danger flag in my gut stands up at full-mast when I watch and listen to Marsh. Let’s see what X/Twitter users have to say.
That last tweet was a good question. How does anyone fail to see through this?
