legal immigration i was never against but open borders i am. i'm not hating mexicans, i am just stating that everyone else around the world effectively got discriminated against due to proximity to the US.
the majority of my neighbors are Mexican and we get along fine because they respect that i work hard like they do.
private equity buying up housing. tax cuts for the rich. excessive military spending. open borders. diversity/equity/inclusion. men who think they are women in real women's sports. teachers more obsessed with student's sexual orientations than education.
there are many things to be grouchy about. Democrat or Republican, we're fucked.
i find most of the social shit to be a distraction from real shit, tbh. economics needs to be the focus.
men never gave a damn abt women's sports in the first place but then one of these stepford wife nazi barbies starts cryin' cuz she ties 4th place with a trans n suddenly everyone's up in arms. you know what policies reps made to solve that problem? double-checking high school girls' genitals. i remember posting an article on a state passing that law n tim thinking it's a good thing n the girls would be happy. cuz ofc the adults signing up for the job doing high school girl genital verification are going to be honorable n not perverts. every method reactionaries pose to save ppl from the shit they cry abt is worse than the actual problem. so save that shit for tim's shoulder to cry on. he'll agree with you n you can hold hands watchin' the sunset n be wrong together. i'm not a dem or rep n i firmly don't care abt that shit anymore.
i throw native wildflower seeds in fields for bees n gather blankets n coats for poor ppl. regardless of skin color or genitals
trans men don't dominate real men at the same rate that trans women dominate real women. trans men aren't trying to get into real men's prisons at the same rate trans women want to be in real women's prisons. the reason is, biological differences between sexes cannot be simply wished away.
as an atheist i am i get annoyed by religious oppression. trans/gender is to me basically another religion.
if a man believes he is a woman, he can believe anything he wants. but he has no right to demand i participate in his beliefs. he has no right to demand i call him a women. it isn't happening. the same way i will NOT bow my head in prayer to appease a Christian.
so when trans demanded i participate in their beliefs, demanded i use preferred pronouns, i sided with the right on that issue.
so we either have separate spaces for the sexes or we have no spaces for sexes.
if we have no spaces for the sexes, have men and women in the same prisons. get rid of events like women's rights march.
and this is where the left lost me, if they avoided open borders and identity politics, id still vote democrat. now im without a political party home all lonely
they are 1% of the population n not even the 1% fucking things up for everybody. all this idpol shit started after occupy wall street bcuz ppl knew who the enemy was
again that's when the koch's n bannon's handlers started revving up the griftchain n now we got culture warrior workin' class ppl bothered over a video game character having vitiligo as a customization option when they can just not click it. like not buying it is an option.
i promise you don't have to care. you are choosing to let propaganda work on you n then calling me woke because i'm not a faggot that follows the culture war that tells me to be mad abt a disney princess skin color when i never intended to see it in the first place
"the enemy of other things"
a team of lawyers should never come between a patient n their doctor. full stop. cuz of the retarded obsession with trannies, whole swaths of states are banning gender affirming care under the guise of "the trans agenda" n again the "cure" is worse than the problem. a huge chunk of "gender affirming care" in minors is breast reduction in teenage boys
that's not even mentioning hormone replacement therapy for the aging populace so you don't lose bone density or have a heart attack
to further cement the point, a person who voted for their right to visit this center to be banned
it's astounding that in the thread you stated that you look down on academic sources, while you post text walls being mad about complex topics such as medical/hormonal stuff, which means you're stating that you refuse to accept the full implications of the shit you propose banning. i am once again telling you to turn off the news and read a book
the left and right have their pros and cons. so i do my best to pick from both sides. diversity of thought is important to me. part of diversity of thought is tolerating people who disagree with me, including yourself and Tim. so i will keep my ears open because i never know when i will learn something.
minty - i don't watch TV or listen to radio. for news i peek at the left-leaning AP and the right-leaning NY Post. yes i know, that is establishment media. but it gives me a general idea what each side's concerns are. also i keep an eye on Ground News' blindspot feature. it kind of sucks but meh i look anyways.
okay cool so since you won't pick up a book n read about it, lower testerone in aging men is not only associated with limp dick but increased depression, likelihood of alzheimers, decrease in bone density, n loss of muscle mass. lower estrogen in aging women leads to higher likelihood of heart attack n decrease in bone density. you said you're a commie, yes? so why should state legislatures be allowed to cripple every working class person who lives past age 50 because 1% of the population wants to be unicorns?
"tolerating people who disagree with me, including yourself and tim"
sir, tim calls everything jewish because he disagrees with it, despite voting for a man who surrounded himself with jewish human traffickers n bankers n who's jewish son in law is going to play real estate tycoon in gaza. because words don't have meaning in his mind
don't equate me with him. if i say smth i generally have at least one source backing me up
"so why should state legislatures be allowed to cripple every working class person who lives past age 50 because 1% of the population wants to be unicorns?" Just so we are on the same page, what exactly are we talking about?
the issue with the left and right is there are many with a cult mentality. if someone dares to disagree like i do, cult mentalities can't handle it. once i understood the only thing acceptable is blind absolute compliance, not merit, it liberated me to look at issues on a case by case basis. i 'woke' up.
bro you're not bravely disagreeing with anything real. you're simply regurgitating the same culture war angle shit, while also having the audacity to say i'm not a real communist while you're in here shouting "both sides" which by definition makes you centrist.
