Wow, I feel bad for all those dissenters and questioners being stifled by the tumblr mob or whatever. That's so much worse than all the persecution and marginalization transgendered individuals have to go through, which doesn't at all justify them bothering society with their "personal issues." You sure have your priorities in order, Jay. A+ empathy.

are the activists doing that, or is that what you think the activists are doing? In your link, it was psychologists that pushed for transition surgery, not activists. In fact, the "activist" (the author of the book in your link) was advocating for self-reflection and a measured approach to understanding personal gender dysphoria issues, which is essentially an argument against your position.

Proper diagnosis and training (which I mentioned in a different discussion the last time you made this same argument) is important, and a lack of it is unfortunately to be expected in an area where, again, as I mentioned previously, transgenderism and gender dysphoria is treated as a mental illness.

Just be open with your own feelings and admit that the idea of transgender people upsets you for some reason that maybe you can't properly explain, instead of veiling it in some nonsensical concern about activists transmogrifying children into different sexes.

Don't get me wrong I would still vote for the queer if he won the primary. If he pranced into the white house hips swinging back and fourth and passed Medicare for all, I would be a big supporter and even let him come over and hit on my dad.

Your hobby is baseball cards. You share an interest with almost exclusively white 8 year olds and people over 65.

You saw that the House of judiciary chairman who is investigating Donald Trump fainted at a Bill de Blasio rally? What a chump.

Read some Fox comments on that. Apparently he has a spiritual illness.

Is it okay to call the camps on the border concentration camps? These are obviously very different from Nazi ones but I feel like getting hung over the definition of concentration camp is just an excuse to look past the conditions at these camps that caused the comparison.

I think it clearly falls within the boiled down definition.

con·cen·tra·tion camp
/ˌkänsənˈtrāSHən ˈˌkamp/
noun
a place where large numbers of people, especially political prisoners or members of persecuted minorities, are deliberately imprisoned in a relatively small area with inadequate facilities, sometimes to provide forced labor or to await mass execution. The term is most strongly associated with the several hundred camps established by the Nazis in Germany and occupied Europe in 1933–45, among the most infamous being Dachau, Belsen, and Auschwitz.
It feels distasteful to me that people are entertaining diminishment.

The gay Mayor Pete's election chances seem to be fading.

While he was flirting with Anderson Cooper and running for president, a cop offed a black guy in his city. Now the whole country is finally getting to see that the guy is an empty suit. His own city hates him and he has been an absentee landlord. His major accomplishments seem to be gentrification and getting yelled at at town halls.

Now he has put all of that behind him to prance down to Miami to debate. What a joke. He has to be the most obvious case of the media hyping a nobody in awhile.

The "Biden will bring out working class white voters" is this years "Hillary will bring out white suburban women voters".

But Biden is in fact a better candidate for president than Clinton though. She had the charisma of a goat.
