Actually a social event for a community that is disproportionately impacted by covid and underserved does seem to qualify. Replacing funding that was lost because of Covid is dead center of one of the intents of the legislation and it seems likely that this is the case with this event.
"Underserved" is dog-whistle for LBTGQWERTY+

I don't doubt it.
I am just running with your slippery slope fallacy

1. Covid funds
2. Drag show
3. High school
4. PA (for Pennsylvania) was admittedly an error. I meant NH (New Hampshire). Edited to correct.
Absolutely. The thread is not about investigations etc.

Look it up. It is on the inter-tubes. By now if people here don't have basic knowledge of some of the basic fallacies, they should take time to learn them.
So, nothing then.

Did I say ALL behavior is based on ideology?
If you're not going to make an argument supporting your views, at least stop attempting to alter my words.

That was your only argument that it is an ideology, so yes.

Oxford definition of ideology:
"a system of ideas and ideals, especially one which forms the basis of economic or political theory and policy."

Behavior is based on it, and was where the goalpost was planted before you moved it.

I don't see where I said that ALL behaviors are based on ideology, or that behavior IS an ideology.
Once again, your mischaracterization of my argument fails.

Why not use your next posts to bolster your own viewpoints rather than to mischaracterize mine? Let's hear what your position is.

If you do not want to take the time to educate yourself about fallacies, that is on you. However, a slippery slope fallacy is what you presented to me.
If you're going to use a term, be willing to tell us your definition of it.

Then perhaps you should look at the section of your quote underlined. I literally quoted your only argument and it is based on behavior.

I quite clearly stated that my position is homosexuality is not an ideology. It was the first post of mine you quoted when we started down this rabbit hole.

Still not seeing where I said "all".

Then you should think about getting your eyes checked.
Well, let me take a closer look again.....

Aldebaran said:
Behavior is based on it

OK, I see the word "behavior", and then "is", followed by "based", then a couple tiny words that look like "on" and "it".
However, I just can't see one that looks like "ALL".
If you can see it in the quote you posted, could you please point it out? Maybe even highlight it somehow?

This is a learning moment for you. If you have no desire to broaden your knowledge, don't blame me. It was a fallacy whether you know it or not.
I'm attempting to learn from someone who uses the term I'm asking about. If anyone would be able to define it, it would be the one who uses it. So I figure that the best way to know what someone means is to ask the very person who is saying something. In this case, that would be you.

OK. You win this pointless argument.
