This is my point. You’re talking about government telling doctors and patients they can’t get treatment. Well some people think vaccines cause autism. Better ban those too.

Some people also think that everyone should be vaccinated for Covid and flu, guess we better mandate that.

You can’t tell us “govt bad but I want them involved in this one specific thing”. That’s not how it works. But trans people are weird so fuck them.

It honestly makes me wonder, like has he never even spoken to a trans person at all? Obviously he doesn’t have any personal relationships to lean on but it’s so strange the amount of interest people like him have in a community they’ve never even interacted with.

I’m from a small rural Texas town. I’ve employed a transgender man and currently work in the same company as 2 others. I am by no means their friend but I also treat them with the same decency as any other acquaintance.

You mean except for voting against their existence and advocating for banning their healthcare. Lots of decency.

Oh ok. So only ban the healthcare for people with gender dysphoria. 
Thank you for proving the point.

Nah revenge of the trannies staring troph and I don’t know doesn’t matter. 
 

imagine a world where troph is the supreme leader, a world where trannies hold leadership positions in all corners of Washington, a complete strangle hold on power. Congress can do nothing because of the memorizing beauty of all the tranny lady boys distracting the unsuspecting congressmen….. {sound of a record scratching} this would break the internet if I keep going.

Well, see, as long as you're not the person who PERSONALLY exiles them to the camps, you're fine.  Issuing directives and enabling the people who destroy their lives - well, that's just hunky-dory.  Any moral responsibility is on the folks who actually take the final action.

Seriously think about the point and precedent you’re setting you dumb fuck. You don’t think trans kids should get treatment. I don’t think kids with ADHD should get treatment. Why should we ban one of those treatments over the other?

For clarity the ADHD is just an example. They obviously should get treatment, so should trans kids. We should let doctors and patients make healthcare decisions not the govt. 

that was me spoofing … but I mean I’ve been called a dumbfuck before so maybe you did mean that at me.

Is this English? What are you trying to say? 
How are you being decent to trans people by advocating that they not be able to receive the treatment that extends their lives? What’s decent about that?

I think for the most part abortion should be legal. No mid or late term. Abortions for women that have been raped or incest but good look with that muddy river. I don’t think religion should play a factor which unfortunately it does. 

Your daughter will most likely grow up to hate you because you supported the political party that wants to take away her right to bodily autonomy. You are a complete cunt.

Genuinely, I appreciate your presence in this thread. I believe you are arguing in good faith, not trolling, and providing a clear depiction of your thoughts.

My question is this: you’ve expressed a few beliefs in this thread that appear to align closer with traditional Democratic Party views than Republican. What made you able to say “I don’t agree with Republicans on guns/abortions/etc, yet I will still give them my vote” but made you unable to do the same with transgender issues and the Democratic Party? Do you prioritize the transgender issue above everything else in the country? Or were there other critical issues to you where you align closer with Republicans?

(Adding in the obvious disclaimer that very few Democrats were openly campaigning on the transgender topic, it was generally just fodder lobbed by the opposition.)

That’s likely the first congruent thing you said on this topic. It’s also not enough to be considered humane.

I saw Chris Kluwe being very politically vocal on BlueSky, and thought "Wait the Vikings punter from back in the day when I cared about the NFL?" 

Eve 6 is also a strong, occasionally political, bluesky follow.

CSB: my wife performed the marriage of one of the bandmembers and his wife, pretty sure she's still friendly with them.  Said they were all cool as hell and pretty good dudes.

Kluwe has always been pretty outspoken. Basically banned himself from the NFL for agreeing with same-sex marriage and for calling out Mike Pfiefer for his use of slurs.

Incredible between the money whipping threat from Elon to primary them with $100m and MAGA minions making credible death threats, the Republican topples without a whimper.

I’m trying to apply common sense and reasoning as much as possible. Never been a fan of guns. But it’s a huge part of this country to have the right to defend yourself from an oppressive power. Though I don’t think the founding fathers had assault rifles in mind when they wrote it. The border and how inappropriately that was looked over was a big one. The Democratic Party taking the easy road and giving Kamala a shot. Babysitting every other nation in the world while not worrying about the ones here at home. And honestly I do like JD Vance more than Trump. Taxes, inflation, all that bullshit comes and goes and is low hanging fruit for the next administration that takes over. A lot of times I end up siding with simpler is better and what suits my slightly conservative view point. I don’t care much for politics bc all these talking points have so many nooks and crannies and nobody will ever figure it out. If there was a perfect answer there wouldn’t be 2 parties at the booth. Me having 2 young girls does play a part in my views on gender rights. I don’t think I’m being radical in saying you should have to legally abide by what genitals you were born with. If you want to live as the opposite sex then right on. But there needs to be that hard line when it comes to records, athletic competition, and possibly imprisonment.

You’re so concerned about the border but voted for the guy that killed the border bill. Makes perfect sense.

Babysitting the world and not taking care of our own… lol are you serious? How is the Republican Party taking care of the less fortunate in this country? You’re just a proud rube.


Who’s enforcing your genital laws? Who gets to look up everyone’s skirts? Do you see how fucking stupid that is?

Still waiting for answers on if we should ban all ADHD medications or mandate covid vaccines.

So now gun control is an issue?  I realize Joe Biden enacted sweeping crackdowns on weapons of all kinds, but . . . wait, that's not right . . . so Kamala was gonna do that?

Fascist.

You care about “gender rights” and not your 2 young girls’ bodily autonomy?

Get the fuck outta here. 

I sure hope nobody ever wants to inspect in their pants to see what gender they are. Because that’s the kind of stuff you voted for.

Conservatism consists of exactly one proposition, to wit: There must be in-groups whom the law protects but does not bind, alongside out-groups whom the law binds but does not protect.

...and the ultimate in-group (that the star-spangled MAGA rally goers don't get) are the billionaires regardless if they're Russian oligarchs whose talking points Trump parrots, Saudi royalty whose golfing tournament he hosts, a communist North Korea dictator whom *checks notes* he fell in love with, or Chinese ruling class he fawned over for their handling of Tiananmen Square.

Walmart's stock dropped 6.5% amid downward revised sales projections for the rest of the year.

I wonder how much money Trump's hedge fund managers have made on options betting against Walmart stock over the last 30-90 days, because they knew the tariff would be real before regular investors did?
