protect his kind - its like what you wrote in your first paragraph, ryan/shoemate will speculate in his favor cause they want their version to be true. I don't know any other posts GB Nap Time has on this subject, so was wondering if there was any reveal from the supposed deep dive. Otherwise, it might be that GB Nap Time, who's second post is whining about trans people, is just looking for a way to create some nobility in this sad pathetic righty green berets suicide.

If you’re not transphobic or anti-trans, there’s something wrong with you.

I read it as he was a gay ally of the trans. but thinking of it gays aren’t really trans friendly

No I agree with your first paragraph. My point was I don’t think those airport bathrooms were created because of “demands” from trans folks. Never really thought about how I define trans because unlike the Geek Club I don’t really think about trannies much at all. I’m not sure I’d say they’d need to get the surgery to be called trans, maybe at least be on some sort of hormone medication.

I think where we disagree is that, given the relatively few number of trans people, they could use the "family" (or rebranded as "all-gender") restroom that most airports have these days. Unless you define "trans" as people who've physically transitioned, as I said in my post. If you consider men who claim to be women when they woke up this morning as trans, then we disagree.

I'm not clear of your point here. Obviously you don't disagree with my first point. And your post doesn't address my second point. I've stated here recently that I support trans women who have physically transitioned being in women's restrooms. I see no better way to moderate it, and I don't think that truly gender dysphoric people pose a significant threat to women. In other words, lopping off your boy parts seems like a pretty large commitment to your belief that you are a woman. But I maintain that the progressives (mostly upper middle class hetero women IMO, not actual trans people) want trans women in biological women's bathrooms, because that is "full" acceptance. I agree with you on locker rooms.

Agreed. Pretty Barbie doughnuts don't mean trans, although I'm open to hear what I'm missing. Otherwise, he has a very weird obsession with trans stuff.

I can’t recall ever saying anything about trannies that wasn’t mocking the GC’s trans obsession. I look forward to the links that prove otherwise!

I don’t know if trans are self-hating , I do know you are

Maybe y’all can define “live like them” when referring to what trans people want others to do. Because if you listen to trans activists, they simply want equal rights and the ability to live their own lives like they want to. I’d challenge both you to find any rhetoric from trans people that are demanding people to “live like them”.

Tim, she made this tweet just today. Is this far off from your thoughts? Do you know what she’s referring to when speaking of girls and women’s rights being dismantled? https://x.com/jk_rowling/status/1791500385405878667?s=46&t=DFWeVowvyy-F23jlecK3zw EDIT: for some reason it won’t link properly. Here’s text of her tweet so y’all don’t have to click: I've never met anyone who doesn't think trans people deserve the same rights and protections as everyone else. Militant trans activism doesn't want trans people to have the same rights, though. It wants women's and girls' rights and protections dismantled for the benefit of men.

Tim, didn’t you proclaim that biological men with pen!ses shouldn’t be allowed in women’s spaces? And I know you’re against men in women’s sports. Aren’t you creeped out by trans people? What exactly about trans ideology do you actually support? If you’re calling Rowling anti-trans, you may want to check the mirror homie.

You think if we stop teaching CRT and not allowing trans kids privacy that we will have more stem skilled adults?

You brought up trans in your OP. Do you even understand your own posts? And of course it’s about trans because that’s your morality concern. What else would it be? But no, do get to that replacement thread because that’s what you really mean. The existence of trans people is not an “existential threat” to this nation and you know it. I’ll look forward to your “nuance” aka rationalizing your racist beliefs

New legislation in CA allows inmates to choose their gender and what prison they go to. A male prisoner decides he wants to go to the female prison, and all that’s required is that he self-identify as a female. He ends up raping multiple women in his new prison. When a case is brought against him for rape, the victim is court-ordered to address the rapist by his preferred pronouns. https://www.foxnews.com/us/blue-state-violent-crime-victims-ordered-address-trans-career-criminal-preferred-pronouns

One benefit of his posts IMO is you get insight into what a pure, 24K Leftist thinks. I mean, he honestly thinks Trump is going to be a dictator based on his comments; he has no interest whatsoever to learning the context or surrounding statements regarding day one only -- Trump says he will be a dictator, and he believes them! His almost exclusive source of info is some uber Leftist named Kyle Griffin from MSNBC. He thinks all trans are from birth with not environmental influence. He is the essence of the modern Leftist. Knowledge is power. It's good to know how such people think.

You act like Kameltoe is far Tight on free trade and tariffs. She’s not. Good article in The NY Times: With Kamala Harris, U.S. Free Trade Skepticism May Continue The vice president has been critical of past trade deals. But her record suggests she could push for trade measures that address environmental issues. In a 2019 presidential debate, Kamala Harris insisted, “I am not a protectionist Democrat.” But Ms. Harris is not a free-trade Democrat, either. She has said she would have opposed the North American Free Trade Agreement of 1992, which President Biden voted for while serving in the Senate, as well as the Trans-Pacific Partnership, an agreement supported by the Obama administration. And in 2020, she was one of only 10 senators to vote against the deal to replace NAFTA, the United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement. As she pursues the presidential nomination, Ms. Harris’s views on trade and economic issues are likely to become a focal point. Yet unlike former President Donald J. Trump and his running mate, JD Vance, trade has never been a major focus for Ms. Harris. As a result, her positions on trade issues are not entirely known. William A. Reinsch, the Scholl Chair in International Business at the Center for Strategic and International Studies, called Ms. Harris “a bit of a blank slate, but one most likely to be filled in with trade skepticism.” In part that is because of her no vote on the U.S.M.C.A., which Mr. Reinsch said “leads me to assume she is part of the progressive wing of the party which is skeptical of trade agreements in general, and particularly of those that involve market access.” But, he said, “there’s not a lot out there to go on.” Still, in her time as a senator from California and as the vice president, Ms. Harris has adopted some recurring positions that hint at what trade policy might look like if she wins the White House. For example, on several occasions, her objection to trade deals revolved around a common issue: their impact on the environment, and their lack of measures to address climate change. While the U.S.M.C.A. was negotiated by the Trump administration, it won over many Democrats by including tougher protections for workers and the environment. But Ms. Harris concluded that the deal’s environmental provisions were “insufficient — and by not addressing climate change, the U.S.M.C.A. fails to meet the crises of this moment.” Her skepticism of the Trans-Pacific Partnership was also partially related to its impact on the environment. She expressed concerns in an interview that it might undermine California’s environmental laws. As a senator, Ms. Harris also sponsored the Green New Deal, an expansive set of policies aimed at addressing climate change. That has given rise to speculation among trade experts that, if elected, Ms. Harris might lean more on trade as a tool to fight climate change — for example, by striking more limited deals that encourage trade in cleaner products and raise barriers for trade in dirtier ones. “A Harris presidency would continue and build upon Biden’s trade policy,” said Todd Tucker, the director of Roosevelt Forward, a progressive advocacy and research organization. “Where I would expect to see Harris go even further than Biden is on integrating trade and climate policy.” Politicians have only recently turned to trade policy as a tool to fight climate change, and not much has yet been accomplished in the area. But it is an approach that is gathering support. In negotiations with the European Union, the Biden administration pushed for trade measures that would encourage makers of steel and aluminum in Europe and the United States to cut carbon emissions. While those talks have faltered, they could be a model for more actions under a Harris administration, trade analysts said. Greta Peisch, a former trade official with the Biden administration who is now a partner at the law firm Wiley Rein, said that the Biden administration had been on the cusp of pushing the United States to use trade tools to address climate change. “With the Harris administration, that would be a trajectory that she would be on as well,” she said. Ms. Peisch added that Ms. Harris could also potentially push forward nascent policies addressing how the United States should work with foreign countries to regulate digital trade. Ms. Harris is familiar with the tech industry from her time in office in California, she said, and could help to set the agenda for how tech issues like artificial intelligence and privacy regulation factor into trade negotiations. Both Republicans and Democrats have adopted more protectionist stances on trade in recent years, moving away from a time when “free trade” was often an unquestioned pursuit for many politicians. While the Trump administration imposed large tariffs on foreign products in an effort to gain leverage and renegotiate trade deals, the Biden administration has declined to pursue traditional free-trade agreements, instead focusing on domestic investments and other kinds of international partnerships. Many Democrats now view free trade deals as a reason that American companies have shipped jobs overseas — a view that seems likely to carry into another Democratic administration. Ms. Harris has emphasized reorienting U.S. trade policy to prioritize the impact on American workers, rather than big companies that would prefer to cut costs by outsourcing jobs. She has also taken a more critical stance against China in her appearances as vice president and her voting record as a senator. And she has denounced the Trump administration’s more aggressive and broad-brush approach to dealing with trade partners, describing the tariffs on China as a tax for American consumers. In a 2019 presidential debate, Ms. Harris described Mr. Trump’s trade policy toward China as erratic and full of bluster. “He reminds me of that guy in ‘The Wizard of Oz,’” she said. “You know, when you pull back the curtain, it’s a really small dude.” Mr. Biden was also critical of Mr. Trump’s tariffs during that campaign. Once in office, however, the Biden administration ultimately chose to maintain Mr. Trump’s China tariffs and recently added some new ones, saying they were necessary to prevent cheap foreign products from flooding the United States and protect new factories that have received federal funding. Mr. Trump has upped the ante in his current campaign for president, proposing tariffs on most foreign goods and floating a tariff of 60 percent or more on goods from China. The Biden administration has said that level of tariffs could damage the U.S. economy, widen the gap between the rich and poor and spark global trade wars that would hurt U.S. exporters. In her role as vice president, Ms. Harris took part in the administration’s push to lessen the dependence of supply chains on China, including by promoting new partnerships for apparel manufacturing in Central America. In speeches, she often took a hard line on China, rebuking the country during two trips to Asia for its maritime clashes with countries like Japan and the Philippines. As a senator, she condemned the persecution of Uyghur and minority women in western China and sponsored a bill by Senator Marco Rubio, a Republican of Florida, to impose sanctions on those responsible for human rights abuses in the region. She was also a sponsor of Mr. Rubio’s Hong Kong Human Rights and Democracy Act of 2019, which was a response to China’s increasing control over the former British territory. “They steal our products, including our intellectual property,” Ms. Harris said in a 2019 debate. “They dump substandard products into our economy. They need to be held accountable. We also need to partner with China on climate and the crisis that that presents."

Still no proof that anyone has been put in a women's prison in California by simply stating "I'm trans"

I am sure one doesn't just say "I'm trans" and and that’s all that is required to be sent to a women's prison. Some people here or so dumb.

They can claim to be trans and go to prison with women.

Just the kind of news we've all been waiting for. Maybe the OP should start a "trans parents arrest" thread so all such related posts can be found in one convenient place.

Thank you, I hadn’t seen her say that, but that’s not saying Khelif is trans, it’s saying she’s a man which is different. As I said in the other thread, IANAL but I’d imagine she has a good case for defamation against anyone that called her trans. We still don’t really know the chromosome specifics, if she does actually have a Y chromosome then those that called her a man might actually have legal ground to stand on.

I agree with the Trans athlete nonsense, but I think student loans need to be addressed. Lots of people were sold a bill of goods and the cost of college is absolutely ludicrous, especially considering it's just a place of indoctrination now and no one learns anything other than how to be beholden to the left.

Abandons trans storyline in new children show win or lose. Indeed Good move, sorry you porn watchers that support the sexual abuse acts against children. Matthew 4:17. From that time Jesus began to preach, and to say, Repent for the Kingdom of Heaven is at hand. Amen.
