Harrison Butker releases a statement responding to the Opening Ceremony of the 2024 Paris Olympics.
The Real timschochet replied to Maximum Overkill's topic in The Geek Club
I don’t read Twitter. And anyhow maybe the actors got that wrong or created that comparison themselves. It certainly doesn’t appear to be what the designer intended. And I know you think Jolly, the designer, is a liar. But if so it’s a very believable lie, because it really did look like the classical depictions of Bacchus (Dionysus) celebrations, even more than it looks like the Last Supper. And that would also fit with the gay and trans themes. So to me that explanation is extremely plausible- but hey what do I know? I’m just a “feelings” guy right? Not a logical bone in my body. -

So it’s emotion to believe the designer of the piece and logic to think that he’s lying? What a messed up world you live in. All of the emotion is on your part. You want to be outraged by this so it HAS to be an attack against Christianity. If it wasn’t then all the outrage was a waste of time and once again you just look like a bigot against trans people. Therefore you’ve made it up your mind: it was The Last Supper! -

Olympic organizers apologize to Christians: https://amp.theguardian.com/sport/article/2024/jul/28/paris-olympics-organisers-apologise-to-christians-for-last-supper-parody I don’t think the apology was necessary. The trans lady was supposed to be Dionysus, not Jesus. Therefore they weren’t attacking Christianity. It was supposed to be plea for love, peace and tolerance. By apologizing they’re giving in to the intolerant mob IMO -
Transgender club alleges discrimination at Peabody restaurant
squistion replied to edjr's topic in The Geek Club
For those who have been wondering for the last 14 years how this worked out. A settlement for the discrimination claim with the restaurant was made after both parties agreed to mediation. According to a link I can't access (Glouchester Times) The city's Licensing Board chose to issue a warning to the restaurant over the incident. Picture of members of transgender club at link: https://www.advocate.com/news/daily-news/2010/03/04/restaurant-and-trans-group-settle-claim -
Yeah, the only time a DA does actual trial prosecution is important trials like when a father is arrested for misdemeanor disorderly conduct at a school board meeting after the superintendent lies about your daughter being raped in a school bathroom by a trans student.

Medical experts acknowledge that there are an astounding number of mental health comorbidities associated with trans people. You of course think that this is because some people are mean to them sometimes, but the experts don't say that. Also, if your brain thinks you are a different sex than your body, that is a mental health issue. We as a society merely have decided not to call it that, because it has negative connotations. -

I was addressing him. You responded. I simply disagreed with your statement that the soldiers could not have conceived of trans- they could have if they had bothered because of its prevalence in the Western Europe of the 1920s. Of course I agree that the vast majority wouldn’t have bothered. And you and I agree on the rest of it. -

I think there was a principle involved, the principle that Eisenhower tried to explain when he addressed the soldiers before the invasion. Of course Ike didn’t mention the freedom to be trans, nor was he thinking about it, nor were the men thinking about it. My point is that the principle Ike DID mention, the right of all men to be free, encapsulates freedoms that we don’t think much about. So when an idiot like @Hardcore troubadour asserts that these men would have turned around, he is insulting their memory and attacking the United States which sent them there. -

Yeah. The guys storming the beaches were doing it because the Nazis crushed the trans movement. And the soldiers knew this. They saw it on the internet. -

Thats not true. The whole trans movement that conservatives are so disgusted by was prominent in both Germany and France in the 1920s, before fascists crushed it. By liberating these countries from the Nazis, our soldiers were recreating the conditions for freedom, even freedom to do stuff you might not like very much, so long as it doesn’t harm others. The principle hasn’t changed. -
For him refusing to use preferred pronouns of trans identified students. A boy is a boy and a girl is a girl. The Judge needs more education of this issue. Shame on you Judge. Probably a rainbow people. Amen Thanks.

What Trump may or may not do if he is elected is a hypothetical which has nothing with the subject matter of this thread. This is nothing but a deflection on your part. Again start a Kamala and Jan 6 thread if you want to discuss that (and the mods will probably let you considering all the trans threads they allow here).

Bans body mutilating trans surgeries, ban on boys from girls sports. Very good. Amen. Thanks

"person" is the placeholder until they find some proof he was trans.

Joe Biden drops out of Presidential Race
Mike Honcho replied to League Champion's topic in The Geek Club
Despite my opposition to trans competing in women's sports, the 50-100 instances of it doesn't really equate to medical reproductive issues of most oqomwn of the country, no matter how loudly the right tries to make it. Just my opinion, agree to disagree, yada yada yada* I'm not going to spend the day arguing about this. -
I get that your attitude is genuine and millions of people share it. But it’s not helping you. NAFTA was cynically replaced with a trade deal with Mexico that was virtually identical. Stopping the Trans Pacific Partnership really hurt our economy. This anti-trade stuff is a feel good for Americans who bemoan the loss of traditional manufacturing. But that’s an inevitable thing, there’s no way to stop it. The trade deals, and free trade in general, bring us far more prosperity than we lose. So does open immigration. Hopefully the majority of Americans will someday perceive this before we suffer too much.

Vance changed his mind on Trump because Trump wasn't just talk and did what he promised to do with trade policy. His life experience isn't much different than mine and this change of perspective on Trump is what happened to me at the same time it happened to him. Trump was more authentic than the glitzy 80s NY real estate developer with the string of ex-model wives. That clip of Trump on Oprah from the 80s looking out for domestic manufacturing is the exact same thing he implemented when he took office. People were fed up. NAFTA and the trans-Pacific trade deal were scrapped. Trump has changed the Republican Party for the better, more focused on the needs of everyday ordinary blue collar people, which separates him from the corporate pawn Bushtards, Cheneys, Romney, and Ryan faction has to sit in the back seat or -in the case of these four- not attend the convention at all. You don't see it ... but oh well. Many of us have and do. Trump's message resonates with a lot of people and while Trump has baggage piled onto him, Vance will be able to articulate it better come 2028 onward. Patriotic blue collar working class grievance is Vance's native language and you don't speak it.

California is 1st state to ban school rules requiring parents get notified of child’s pronoun change

California is 1st state to ban school rules requiring parents get notified of child’s pronoun change
GutterBoy replied to edjr's topic in The Geek Club
This is an odd take to me. Allowing the teachers to conspire with children. In order to come to this conclusion you would have to assume that the teachers are trying to "turn the kids trans" or at the very least "allowing it to happen". You would have to assume that all teachers have a trans agenda. That is Ludacris (LUDA) to me. If your position is that teachers have to divulge pronoun usage to parents, what about other information? What if the see the child doodling a pentagram? Or they overhear the child talking about climate change? Why are we focused on pronouns? -

GutterBoy replied to edjr's topic in The Geek Club
This is a nonsensical sentence, but I'll try and interpret it. I think what you're trying to say is that a teacher is only allowed to keep information from the parent if it relates to being trans. If so, no, that's not the case. If a parent sees a boy wearing a dress, they don't have to tell the parents. If a teacher sees a girl kissing another girl, they don't have to tell the parents. If a kid tells a teacher they are gay, teacher doesn't have to tell parent. But for some reason kid asks teacher to call them "them" instead of "him", then the school requires the teacher to tell the parent. Odd isn't it? Why only that? So the law changes that to give the teacher discretion to tell the parent, just like anything else, just like it was before. -

TBayXXXVII replied to edjr's topic in The Geek Club
Ok, so just so we're clear, if a kid tells a teacher that if their parent will be angry with them... the teacher can ONLY without that information, if it relates to them being trans? Gotta love it when people are acting as if discretion should only be held by the government over it's constituency, but the other side are the fascists. -

How can it be an “absolutist cult” if I am relying on medical experts? And I know, you say I’m relying on American experts who are influenced by woke and that British experts disagree; we’ve been through all that. But the fact remains that I am still trusting the scientists here the way I would a car mechanic or an airline pilot. It’s not some religious guru telling me that trans is not a mental illness. So it isn’t a cult.
