What does that even mean? — Harry Hindu
How does one live as a woman if one is a guy? — Harry Hindu
You mean you haven't and yet you speaking for them? — Harry Hindu
The difference is that you simply accepted their claims without question. Do you do that with other extraordinary claims that are made? — Harry Hindu
It also took generations for racial practices to be abolished. . . and discrimination against particular nationalities based on biological nonsense. . . and allow for those of disparate physical ailments to have greater political/legal representation.:roll: of course I can agree with all that (just read my recent posts in other political discussions), but that will take generations to accomplish. — Harry Hindu
It's a delusional disorder to have mixed sex public or private places?A more immediate solution to the trans problem is to start addressing it as what it is - a delusional disorder. — Harry Hindu
What was your point? What argument is there about physical prowess? It’s a biological fact.I was responding to the physical prowess argument, so your reply misses my point. — LuckyR
Thanks for saying nothing at all and pushing the can down the road. Proactive is the word for the day. — substantivalism
That wasn't the question. And you didn't keep your bullshit to yourself until I exposed your hypocrisy. Now you, and everyone else that drank the trans-Kool-Aid, is silent. Will you all bring the same tiring arguments back up the next time a Trans thread appears on the forum? Of course you will because it's not about what the truth is to you. It's about acquiring political power in the form of using people with mental disorders as political clubs against your political opponents.I usually keep my bullshit to myself. — frank
Confusing, I know. But Frank seems to think that everyone should know what a trans-woman is and what it means for a man to live as a woman, but when pressed on what that means... silence.Jumping in very late, here. I do not know what trans means, or what a trans person is. But it does seem plain easy to prove that no trans-man is or can be a man, nor any trans-woman a woman, for the extremely simple reason that a trans-man, If a man, is already a man, and a trans-woman, if a woman, is already a woman. That leaves the alternatives of a trans-man being a woman or neither a man nor a woman, and a trans-woman being a man or neither man nor woman. — tim wood

I agree with a lot of what you said before this, but I wanted to expand on this. Obama's victory was so traumatizing to a large segment of white society that they had to "other" him with outlandish conspiracy theories that many still believe to this day (birtherism) — RogueAI
I believe that a lot of whites saw the election of Obama as irrefutable proof that their time as king of the mountain was coming to an end and they went into denial mode — RogueAI
We have to monitor who we suspend very carefully or we would get investigated by the justice department (not a danger with Trump in office) and/or lose funding from California. — RogueAI
My female principal banned football because the boys were playing "too rough". That really bugged me. — RogueAI
Hi Rogue,
I see this idea a lot in Democratic Americans, that 'large segments' of white society are overtly racist. I'd love to see some proof of this applying to 'large segments' of people. — Jeremy Murray
Even if you reject my capitalization, certainly, white people do not view themselves as 'white people' the way that minority groups might view them or themselves. — Jeremy Murray
I didn't comment on how hard life is for anyone. Everyone has challenges. Everyone has advantages. A lot of things come down to mindset. — frank
When you said "If a black man can get rich in America, it's not racist in the way that actually matters." I take that to mean "if a black man can get rich in America, it's not REAL racism. It's "racism", but it's not actually hurting anyone."
If you didn't mean that, what did you mean? — RogueAI
What I'm doing about it is exposing the hypocrisy and motivations of the extreme left for open minds to see. It was only a few years ago that even questioning trans-genderism would get you banned or canceled. I was one of the few going against the grain here on this forum. Now you have many Democrats calling out the trans-movement as hurting the party. The needle is moving.Maybe, but there's nothing you can do about it. — frank
I never said there isn't room on the planet for anyone, nor am I trying to squash anyone. My whole point when it comes to politics - if you've read any posts of mine recently in political discussions - is live and let live. The problem is that the trans-movement is not letting others live by petitioning the government to affirm their delusions. Have you been consistent in informing atheists that there is room on the planet for Christians and the atheists should not squash the Christians? I'm not a Christian. I'm an atheist. The difference is that I'm consistent in my rejection of all delusions and those that want government to affirm their delusions.Ok. I think you're going a little too far, though. There's room on the planet for people who become trans. There's no reason to squash them. Just let them be. The woke bullshit will stabilize itself over time. — frank

Have you heard of the "Great Replacement"? This is the belief by right-wing whites that the white race is going to be literally fucked out of existence and replaced by minorities because we're not having enough kids. — RogueAI
Straw man. I'm not talking about the people that are deluded and keeping their delusion to themselves. If I identified as the reincarnated spirit of Elvis Presley and petitioned government to force people to refer to me as, "The King", to upgrade bathrooms toilets to thrones for the King, or that children must pray to the spirit of the King in school, would I be keeping my delusion to myself?Both Christians and atheists are protected by the first amendment. People can be as deluded as they want to be. It's none of your business. — frank
No, I haven't. Although, I have worked for myself for a significant portion of my life. Companies are abandoning DEI initiatives. To even implement them in the first place is implying that you weren't treating people fair and equal before your company implemented them. Again, they are assuming the premise that systemic racism exists. We already have laws in the books for discrimination and treating people equally. DEI was a push to give special treatment to certain groups.For the most part, the support the LGBTQ community is getting is about capitalism. Companies want to virtue signal. And there's nothing anybody can do to stop them. Have you not received diversity education from your employer? — frank
I think we have our wires crossed. There is no debate because men have significant physical advantages over women.So you're unfamiliar with the height and muscle development advantage in sports that male-to-female transexuals possess? Okay, then let me introduce the issue to you (even though it was a hotly debated concept within this very thread). — LuckyR
