The murder of Charlie Kirk

who cheated and abused other women. Like i understand hes not pro trans or anything but it seems obvious hes talking about the actions of thomas and those doing similar. We can do this thing again where I post a clip of kirk talking about trans people in general. It doesn't sound anything like this

They care much more about it than women or any other demo. But these are folks that largely think what they are told to think.

I mean it's a major issue or an attsck on women to think otherwise to to only the low intelligence rural.

Theres more clips of conservatives talking about trans issues than any other issue. it’s their favorite issue.

I'm sure you could find videos of him being much less aggressive about his views but toning down your rhetoric around people who disagree/have less extreme views as you is standard behaviour for basically all of humanity. How a person talks/behaves amongst those who agree with them tends to be a lot closer to a person's true beliefs, and preaching in a church is pretty much the epitome of Kirk being around those who agreed with him.

Similarly with his approach to homosexuality. He was openly accepting of gay people but even that was always with the disclaimer that he made a point of saying that he disagreed with it. He was also very outspoken about saying that gay marriage should not be a thing and once you're talking about taking away rights from a group that's veering sharply towards hate for the group, even if being outwardly accepting towards individuals.

Basically it's entirely possible to seem outwardly accepting while still denouncing their behaviour and even advocating for them to have fewer rights. That outward acceptance doesn't make the other rhetoric not harmful.

it was a clear issue that played in their favor given the supermajoritarian agreement among the undecided with the republican position, so they correctly talked about it a lot.

but they talked about the border disaster more because that played even better with the general population

Yeah the conservatives love the trans issues the same way leftists love Trump

Brilliant

Weird how one of those things has zero effect on 99.999% of peoples lives and the other effects 99.999% of peoples lives

Whenever conservatives get a chance to talk about trans issues, their eyes light up and they speak in orgiastic pleasure. It is the one unifying turn on that truly satisfies completely. They act like theyre getting ****ed by zac efron in the back of a limo after a gala.

I would say all except misogynistic would be more to the left. Men on the left seem to be more effeminate so they also tend to be less misogynistic.

Well duh it’s an opportunity for the right to be bigoted pieces of ****. As society as a whole progresses and it’s no longer acceptable to outlaw being gay or gays being teachers or gay marriage you need something to distract the hateful and weak minded from what really impacts them. Seems to be working quite well.

Many democrats (45%) also don’t want trans women competing in professional and collegiate women’s sports.

It’s one of the most unpopular issues because the point of those sports is clearly to give cis women the chance to achieve records/pay/accolades. It’s also not a clear scientific consensus that such activities can be fully fair to natal females due to the physiological effects of even partial male puberty (depending on the sport).

Of course you may have your own reasons for supporting or not caring about it, but if you want to understand the reason why it resonates I think those are really big ones.

I didn't know it was such a big issue with them until this incident. I mean I knew it was an issue it's just that it affects so few people relatively speaking that I didn't think it was a "big" issue in that sense.

Trans sports are an actual complicated issue that is given light not because of the gravitas or complexity of the issue, but largely to bully a minority group. It would benefit the world if almost everyone stopped talking about it

I along with I'd guess *most* of the people who talk about it don't really care to understand or solve a problem. I would guess *most* of the people who talk about it really just want to be angry at trans people

I don't know if the contestants complained about it at the time, but several certainly did later. And I can't imagine very many of them were happy about it.

The actual definition of abomination includes the word hatred. "A thing that causes disgust or hatred."

This is a joke. You think men who want to become women hate women??

And you seriously think that if you chose a random person on the left they're more likely to be a violent person than if you chose one on the right?

You realize that the majority of people in the left are women, right? And the majority of the right are men. How many women do you know of who do anything violent and how many men?
Based on this fact alone, you're definitely wrong.

Plus, pretty much everyone in the armed forces is violent - that's part of their job. And they're far more likely to be on the right than on the left.

I don't think there are many people who even figuratively danced on CK's grave, but doing so is not nearly as hateful as some of the things CK himself said, and things that Trump says nearly every day. Did you listen to his speech at the memorial? How about that of Stephen Miller? It takes a very special kind of hate to spew that stuff at a memorial.

There was a lot of discussion here about Thomas two years ago or whenever it was in the news, and I don't remember a single person defending the sharing the women's changing room. I'm sure there are some on the left who defend it, but it's a small minority position.

Fair enough.

So the guy I knew that got his head caved by a baseball bat was looking for trouble by playing poker in a cardroom?

Tell us your thoughts on women being raped and how it's their fault...

Well, that's unitarded to lump both groups together. Should be obvious why.

Hint: one group is carrying a gun to commit crimes, and the other group is carrying a gun to prevent a crime (whether you think that's a good idea or not is irrelevant).

And that's stupid because everyone in the forum is talking about people who carry guns legally (i.e., a criminal is legally forbidden to own a firearm).

What other things being held equal? Wtf are you talking about? Criminals are not allowed to posses firearms, so they are nothing equal to law-abiding gun carriers.

Ehh no? It’s not complicated at all. Men don’t belong in womens sporte. A man can not be a woman. There. Solved.

It would benefit the world if men pretending to be women would stop invading women spaces.

You’re reinforcing my point dipshit. Thanks

There were a bunch including Uke

Your point is ****, dipshit. Thanks.

I remember him saying that he wasn't sure what he thought about trans women in college sports. I'm pretty sure he never said he supported them being in the women's changing rooms. But I guess we'll see if anyone defends that now.
