To learn where woke social engineers are taking us, consider what they try to destigmatize so as to normalize. First homosexuality, then pedophilia (e.g., here, here, here, here, here, here), now sadomasochism:

A new study published in Psychological Assessment introduces the Index of Consensual Sexual Sadism (ICSS), a tool designed to measure sadistic sexual interests in the general population. Unlike existing measures that focus on nonconsensual or criminal behavior, the ICSS focuses on consensual acts and fantasies, allowing researchers to assess these tendencies without conflating them with pathology or risk. The findings suggest that consensual sexual sadism is psychologically distinct from everyday sadism and may not be inherently harmful or indicative of psychological problems.

Only intolerant bigots would think that making love by inflicting pain, degradation, and mock murder by strangulation is indicative of psychological problems.

If liberal establishmentarians retain the whip hand, it is only a matter of time before people lose their jobs over allegations of sadophobia. Not long after that will come cancelation of coprophobes who commit hate by not affirming coprophilia.
