Israel attacks Iran UPDATE: Trump claims a cease fire among all countries

Bump for @jerryskids -
Brianna Wu: If I were in charge of the trans movement...
TimHauck replied to jerryskids's topic in The Geek Club
I know you will claim I’m arguing semantics but I think your commentary mischaracterizes her comments a bit. Your comment: the trans movement is largely a social contagion Her quote: The rates of trans children have exploded and much of this almost certainly social contagion Seems to me she is only talking about the “increase” in the number of trans folks, but it sounds like you’re talking about trans folks in total. Can you clarify? Do you think kids being trans as a whole is a “social contagion”? -

TimHauck replied to jerryskids's topic in The Geek Club
So Wu wants to change the conversation, but you don’t. Got it! -
@jerryskids how was your class? Figured this deserved it’s own thread. I think yes. on this subject, this tweet from 2 days ago went viral and of course all the conservative x posters jumped all over it. I also think it’s odd the guy is bragging about being the “IQ record holder” https://x.com/yhbryankimiq/status/1935171190827667641

Elon says that Trump is in the Epstein files.

Any “influencer” that got one of those binders should probably retire from social media. -

TimHauck replied to jerryskids's topic in The Geek Club
No. It was relevant to the sentence I quoted, which Wu wants to “change the conversation to.” I had never heard of Wu before today, but she is described by you as “influential in the trans community.” And she has had multiple posts showing her disdain for Gaines, who is probably one of the most well-known people that is “dehumanizing to trans people.” -

Somehow still gonna be the Dems’ fault -
This dude is definitely a scammer, he definitely makes sure to say “from the world’s highest IQ record holder” as much as possible. And he apparently doesn’t know what a paragraph is https://x.com/yhbryankimiq/status/1941706014572806568 https://x.com/yhbryankimiq/status/1941891480186196306

People on x these days love being anti-Semitic apparently (and I’m not talking about being critical of the Israeli government). The guy he kicked out of the bar is apparently doubling down on being anti-Semitic trying to get those Elon-bucks https://x.com/MoKhan_3/status/1939825081938518524

Figured this deserved its own thread. What do we think the Supreme Court will decide on this? I’m not sure. I’m no legal expert, but the “BuT iT wAs OnLy InTeNdEd FoR sLaVeS!” argument doesn’t seem very credible to me, as the actual amendment says nothing about slaves and the way it is written is very broad: https://constitution.congress.gov/constitution/amendment-14/ All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the State wherein they reside. No State shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States; nor shall any State deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws. However, the main case considered to set the precedent for this is probably where Trump has a better argument: Wong Kim Ark. People that think the overturning of birthright citizenship is going to go through seem to be hanging onto the fact that Ark’s parents were “permanently domiciled,” even if not citizens. https://supreme.justia.com/cases/federal/us/169/649/ @Engorgeous George in particular, any predictions?

So all trans folks are disgusting and violent? -
Helene Disaster Response: The Regime leaving Red States to die?
TimHauck replied to Tree of Knowledge's topic in The Geek Club
Yeah Helene as a whole was exponentially worse. I’ve seen some people say how the emergency personnel in Texas are doing so much better than Helene which is silly. Obviously the deaths are tragic especially with many of them being kids. But looks it’s from one river pretty much in one fairly small area, which is a little easier for the emergency personnel than Helene’s damage which was caused by probably dozens of bodies of water and spread out over hundreds of miles, in the focking mountains. It’s really a miracle there weren’t more deaths. -

TimHauck replied to jerryskids's topic in The Geek Club
Speaking of that sentence, for the people that claim Riley Gaines “just wants men out of women’s sports,” here is Wu’s opinion of Ms Gaines: https://x.com/BriannaWu/status/1817169816626553245 I appreciate the increasing frequency of these comments from Riley because it gives away her game. Yes, it’s reasonable to have a public policy discussion about trans people and women’s sports. But her political project doesn’t stop there. She’s disgusted by LGBT people and wants to eliminate them from public life. This is, of course, anti-American and anti-democratic. -

TimHauck replied to jerryskids's topic in The Geek Club
No arguments here. I think this forum could particularly learn from this sentence: Then we could change the conversation to what it should actually be - why are people so dehumanizing and cruel to trans people? -
There’s @BrahmaBulls “ignoring” me again, lol.

“Correctly,” lol

Parents call out unfairness as trans pitcher throws shutout in Minnesota softball state quarterfinals
TimHauck replied to jbycho's topic in The Geek Club
You drunk? -
I thought we were trying to reduce the need for the legal system? Doing this “case by case” would be silly IMO. I think you have to make the kid a citizen if either parent is. Reading the EO that’s what it sounds Iike to me, but it’s a little lawyer-speaky
-
If Trump wins, what exactly is the proposal? If either mom or dad is a citizen then baby is a citizen, correct?

If you weren’t talking about Gaines, then your post was a whataboutism. HTH -
Kilmar Abrego Garcia & Trump El Salvador deportations thread.
TimHauck replied to squistion's topic in The Geek Club
I think him not running would be far more likely, but I can accept the lol-ness being debatable. Thinking that there’s a chance the “margaritas” were anything but intentional propaganda on the part of Bukele is definitely lol-worthy though. -
Israel attacks Iran UPDATE: Trump claims a cease fire among all countries
TimHauck replied to Frozenbeernuts's topic in The Geek Club
Not many people living within 0.5 mile there buddy. And there were some women and children at the aid stations. On video even (just not being killed). -
Kilmar Abrego Garcia & Trump El Salvador deportations thread.
TimHauck replied to squistion's topic in The Geek Club
So you think Occam’s razor would say that the most likely outcome would be that he’d run? I acknowledged that it was theoretically possible that he would run, but I don’t think it’s the most likely since it would take a lot of resources to pull off successfully, and if he’s caught they’d do worse things to him than they did at CECOT -
I’m sure most here don’t care about liberal cities, but lots of interesting things going on here IMO. First of all you’ve got the disgraced Andrew Cuomo who had previously been in the lead. After killing old folks during covid and the sexual harassment allegations, I’m surprised he has so much support. But his main competition is Zohran Mandami, who doesn’t have much experience and is a socialist. He also supports boycotting Israeli products and has called their actions in Gaza genocide, so with the recent Iran situation you’ve got crazies like Laura Loomer calling him a “jihadist.” Lastly there’s Brad Lander who of course recently gained fame but really has no chance (so for that reason I still don’t believe he wanted to get arrested). He’s also been endorsing Mandami though, and may have succeeded in getting more support for him, as he has taken a lead in polls for the first time. Worth noting that Lander is Jewish, yet endorsing Mandami, so I thought this point about not equating Jews with Israel was interesting. https://x.com/ryangrim/status/1937133684693287281
