The Democrats want us at each others throats.
Is it really
just the Dems pulling this bullshit? I mean, I can pick up any podcast by many of the "conservative" podcasters and talk radio hosts and you hear as much from them that is just as much bullshit. If you don't want to buy into the bullshit, don't. Don't go making it worse by saying "I'm all pure of thought in the matter" and only be piling onto the cesspool that partisan politics have become,
which you just did by making that post.Trappin wrote:US, UK and Oceania news and entertainment media apparatchiks expend much of their time and energy promoting identity politics. Example of such messaging; gender identity viz. there are 57 gender types and then that is further divided into LBGQT rights; transfemales should be allowed to compete against cisnormal females in sporting events or be allowed to use cisnormal female public restrooms (flopping their transfemale penis in front of your five year old cisnormal daughter to urinate.) And if one objects to such things they are negatively labeled as haters and transphobic and publicly denounced on twitter.
If you're so wise as to see through the bullshit, then you should be wise enough to rise above it without calling it out like it was so dirty. You should see the gender stereotypes for what they are... modernist bullshit stemming from the Evangelical movement in the early 20th century. You shouldn't be coming off as afraid of those that are different thinking about things than yourself.
One of the things about the Libertarian movement from back in the day is they saw past the gender politics, stereotypes, and other bullshit and saw a future where nobody actually gave one rat fuck about any of it, and we became a greater society for it. Unfortunately, that message is lost on the Tea Party Republicans (at least in the US) who care more about Conservative Christianity than being truly Libertarian.
