Ought therefore is

  1. Trans women ought to be women, therefore they are.
  2. Men and women ought to be the same, therefore they are.
  3. Fat people ought to be healthy at every size, therefore they are.  
  4. All cultures ought to be morally equivalent, therefore they are.  
  5. Group average abilities and interests ought to be identical across sexes, therefore they are.  
  6. Preferred pronouns ought to match reality, therefore they do.  
  7. Non-binary identities ought to be a coherent third (or more) sex category, therefore they are.  
  8. Beauty standards ought to be fully subjective and inclusive of every body type, therefore they are.  
  9. Crime rate disparities by group ought to reflect only bias or poverty, therefore they do.  
  10. IQ and cognitive distributions ought to be the same across populations, therefore they are.  
  11. Affirmative-action or DEI hires ought to be equally qualified, therefore they are.  
  12. Women in elite combat or strength sports ought to perform identically to men, therefore they do.  
  13. Children who say they are the opposite sex ought to be that sex, therefore they are.  
  14. Historical figures or fictional characters ought to match modern identity checkboxes, therefore they did/do.  
  15. All family structures ought to produce equal outcomes for children, therefore they do.  
  16. “Lived experience” ought to override empirical data, therefore it does.  
  17. Corporate rainbow logos and statements ought to prove genuine inclusion, therefore they do.  
  18. Pay gaps ought to be pure discrimination after controlling for nothing relevant, therefore they are.  
  19. Climate models and catastrophe timelines ought to be precise and settled, therefore they are.  
  20. Violent offenders from favored groups ought to be primarily victims of society, therefore they are.  
  21. Artistic or scientific merit ought to track demographic representation quotas, therefore it does.  
  22. Language itself ought to be reshaped by activist coinages, therefore the new terms accurately describe reality.  
  23. Sexual orientation and gender identity ought to be infinitely fluid and self-defined without trade-offs, therefore they are.  
  24. Traditional sex-based spaces and categories ought to include anyone who claims them, therefore the categories no longer track sex.  
  25. Media portrayals ought to show perfect demographic proportionality and moral equivalence, therefore reality matches the portrayals.  
  26. Disagreement with the above claims ought to be hate or phobia, therefore it is.

Do you recognize the above logical structure? This is the "ought-is" fallacy, an inversion of the "is-ought" fallacy.

I would pay $59 a month to never hear the moralistic fallacy for the rest of my life. I would pay $299 a month for them to get beaten pissed on, on a TV show called "Liberals Getting Beaten and Pissed On." 

If leftists were LLMs all of their opinions could be coded with a single line.
