Yes

Haven't heard that - I HAVE heard of immature, scared republicans banning books https://www.businessinsider.com/book-banning-in-america-losing-issue-for-republicans-2023-2

Mulvaney promotes it.

I don't know enough about Mulvaney to know whether or not they promote child transitions. I'll have to take your word for it. 

I don't see the correlation between people who have gender dysphoria and racists? 

[beej]

Because transgender is the same as racism? 

no it's not the same. OBVIOUSLY!. That doesn't change the point I was making. If you promote a spokesperson who is in favor of some ideal, you are promoting the ideal.

LOL, there is plenty of real world video footage from all over the country of Drag queen story hour and other events put on in schools and other childrens events. So should we consider you the typical ignorant liberal or do you really know and are just the immoral lying type lib?

My point is that racism is something that is evil where people who support child transitioning, agree with it or not, don't have nefarious intent.

I don't support it myself, but I'm also able to admit that I don't know enough about it to give educated opinions on it. I do know that I don't have outside influences guiding my opinions on it ( faith, religion, what ever )

I also think that there are a lot of people blindly supporting it without knowing what the hell they are talking about.  But again, I don't believe that there is anything nefarious there. Just ignorance.

Just because I disagree with the way you interpret things doesn't make me a liar

typical, immoral, I'm fine with all of of that - just don't call me a liberal


And schools wouldn't have to explain drag shows to anyone if some dipshit hate monger didn't shoot one up

I don't think it is that black and white. There are people in education/medical/mental health fields that feel it is their responsibility to push children to make these choices. Kids go to these professionals and they use their position of power and influence to push these kids into decisions they should not be making at their age. IMO, that equates to nefarious intent.

So how would our resident commie describe drag queen story hour in a short skirt with his balls hanging out to a bunch of school children?

Not only that, but the Drag queen invasion of schools has been happening long before a mentally ill Trans person shot up a school.

Introducing young children to topics involving gender / sexuality is the first step in grooming them.
Convicted pedophiles have been using that tactic since forever because it works.

If you don't see the possibility of nefarious intent there, I can't help you.

yes, you do. You just haven't thought about it enough to know what your outside influences are yet. I don't mean that to be as condescending as it sounds, It has only been in the last few years that I have been diving into this on my own to see if I actually believe what I think I believe.

the influences come from philosphers, whose ideas have been taught in universities, that have influenced modern thinking, that has influenced, media, professors, teachers, politicians and now permeated society. The ideas are a religion in and of itself.

First, I agree that this has no place in our schools. I don't know how prevalent it is in K-12 compared to what I've heard, but as I've said before; my girlfriend is a teacher in one of the most liberal Cities in the Country and they've not once had a trans story hour, discussed gender identities, etc. Much less tried to influence the children to think in any particular way.  People who use the classroom as their platform for activism are wacko and have no business teaching our (the royal our) children. However, I doubt this is the norm for people who are trying to be supportive to children (or adults) with gender dysphoria.


Most of my girlfriends family and friends work in healthcare. They don't see it there either. Not saying that it doesn't exist, just saying that people make it sound as if this is more the rule than the exception and I think that it's the other way around.

Maybe I'm just being naive and it's like having that grandpa who is actually racist and you've learned to accept it because that how his generation was?
