"Not sure I agree with Eric on the importance of national identity. Switzerland and Singapore seem to do fine without much of one. "

Switzerland and Singapore, in my experience, both have very strong national identities. Singapore benefited from the paternal leadership of Lee Kuan Yew, who built a post-British colony identity, rooted in Chinese ethnic heritage but not exclusively Chinese. Switzerland is bizarrely nationalistic, they think they are special, which is one reason they've avoided joining the EU.

This whole pushing of trans on children and impressionable tweens and teenagers is despicable. If an under 21-year-old is too immature to buy, own and use a gun, then most certainly is he/she too immature to take life-altering hormones to change his/her biological sex.
