Language is a reflection. Reflection is symmetry. Symmetry is bent and broken when a look back in time bounces back to look foward in time. If language is a tool to exchange information then reproduction is the most primal manifestation of it in the form of DNA. So life is a result of language. Like language, viruses are somewhere between being the creation of life and the tool used to create life. After asexual reproduction, binary reproduction in the form of egg and sperm came along. It is 2 billion years old. Humanity is only 200,000 years old. Science is augmenting this ancient binary law with technlogies such as in vitro gametization. Transhumanism is inevitable. The neutralization and cross pollination of identities has been more and more noticeable as society will become more intricate and intertwined via technology such as brain-computer interfaces. Gender in language reflects the perspective of language and thus the perspective of it's speakers. Some people want no part of the changes. With the constant flux of language in mind a lot of conflict can be seen as a fight against annihilation. This is leading to growing confusion, anger, censorship, revolt and violence. At the end of the day most of us don't want to go extinct and yet we will fight to the death for our identities' advancement. Like viruses on the mysterious border of livelihood and the goddess Kali, language can create or destroy and die, be born or reborn. Language is God/Goddess/Identity.
