So there's lot's there's lots more of this?:What you call a radical extremist is what those of us in the outside (the US) Western world would probably call slightly left of centre. For instance, US politics is notoriously right leaning compared to my country (Aus). Americans are (collectively) often seen as conservative pearl clutchers.

Still wondering what you mean with "trans stuff has to go".I am not a hater, but this trans stuff has got to go. It just makes people hate democrats even more. Biden would probably get more votes from centrists and center right folks if he stopped pushing trans stuff.
Which hill should the democrats pick to die on? Because I can assure you that once the transsexuals are firmly back in the closet, the GOP will go after the next target.You've got that right. I feel sorry for LGBT people and the shabby treatment they are sure to get from a Trump administration, but it's a dumb hill for Democrats to pick to die on. They've been having trouble with these culture war issues all along. They have been entirely blind about how some people take these issues. Even Christians on the "left" have no real idea how important gender conformity is to some people and how closely it is tied to their faith..
How about a middle ground between being in the closet and the polar opposite of that; being everywhere in everything.Which hill should the democrats pick to die on? Because I can assure you that once the transsexuals are firmly back in the closet, the GOP will go after the next target.
There weren't any transsexuals in my morning kokoa.How about a middle ground between being in the closet and the polar opposite of that; being everywhere in everything.
Uh huh... I knew ahead of time if I Googled trans chocolate I'd find something like this.There weren't any transsexuals in my morning kokoa.
To me it seems like transsexuals mostly exist in the head of conservatives.
Which areas would the right propose be enforced as straights-only?How about a middle ground between being in the closet and the polar opposite of that; being everywhere in everything.
The Southern Poverty Law centre lists the American College of Pediatricians as an extreme hate group masquerading as a legitimate medical association:
The American College of Pediatricians (ACPeds) is a fringe anti-LGBTQ hate group that masquerades as the premier U.S. association of pediatricians to push anti-LGBTQ junk science, primarily via far-right conservative media and filing amicus briefs in cases related to gay adoption and marriage equality.ACPeds opposes adoption by LGBTQ couples, links homosexuality to pedophilia, endorses so-called reparative or sexual orientation conversion therapy for homosexual youth, believes transgender people have a mental illness and has called transgender health care for youth child abuse.American College of Pediatricians

This is a man pretending to be a woman chosen by the Hershey Chocolate Company to represent International Women's Day.
Hershey's is erasing women by putting the face of a trans-"woman" on chocolate bar wrappers
Yeah, that's what I'm talking about. Search for something, surround yourself with it, then complain that you are surrounded by it.Uh huh... I knew ahead of time if I Googled trans chocolate I'd find something like this.

There is considerable opposition to irreversible or surgical procedures, both from the right and the left.That's a moot question. The real question is, is it something that could start taking place? Should there be opposition against it taking place?
What the extreme right came up with is the malicious lie that "gender affirming care" is always surgical or involves irreversible drug treatments."Gender affirming care" is not a proposal the extreme right came up with.
Yes, parents should be required to take right-wing religious advice before authorizing medical care for their children.Parents being weird enough, gullible enough, or weak enough to go along with it in the future is moot.
It is available, but I haven't seen anybody on the right reference it or provide a sample.Incorrect. That's readily available information that has been specifically addressed.
I thought you said that hadn't happened yet. that you were worried that it could happen.So you're saying "gender affirming care" which includes chemical and surgical procedures on children, which many are fighting for taking place, has been manufactured by the right. In other words the left is fighting for something the right just made up.
The LGBT campaign thew itself under the bus when it started blatantly going after children.
Only if they are willing to do sex right?The welfare of children is always a very important issue.
Have any women been erased yet where you are? The women I know are all still here. Maybe you could help them out with some advice, by explaining how the picture of a trans woman on a candy bar wrapper is dangerous to them. The women I know aren't afraid of candy bar wrappersUh huh... I knew ahead of time if I Googled trans chocolate I'd find something like this.

Yet many women are saying they're being replaced/erased. This isn't the only time a man has been chosen to represent women. And then there's all the males in female sports beating them out and setting new records etc...Have any women been erased yet where you are? The women I know are all still here.

In other words it's practically everywhere you look, unless you bury your head in the sand. Ignorance is bliss.Yeah, that's what I'm talking about. Search for something, surround yourself with it, then complain that you are surrounded by it.
Thank you for demonstrating.
What you call “being everywhere in everything” is what the rest of us call “simply existing.”How about a middle ground between being in the closet and the polar opposite of that; being everywhere in everything.
I wasn’t aware that because a woman who doesn’t look exactly like me was one of the people picked to represent a *checks notes* limited edition chocolate gimmick, I ceased to exist.Uh huh... I knew ahead of time if I Googled trans chocolate I'd find something like this.

Especially on children.There is considerable opposition to irreversible or surgical procedures, both from the right and the left.
That's false. It's the push to perform drug treatments and surgical procedures on children that's being fought against. However there is also the aspect of harmful psychological treatments. If you look that up you'll see there's been plenty of them already.What the extreme right came up with is the malicious lie that "gender affirming care" is always surgical or involves irreversible drug treatments.
The idea that only right-wing religious people think radical transgender procedures on children are probably harmful is ridiculous.Yes, parents should be required to take right-wing religious advice before authorizing medical care for their children.
That's probably because you display being woefully uninformed.It is available, but I haven't seen anybody on the right reference it or provide a sample.
Probably billions of people see it as an eminent threat to the welfare of children. Which is why worldwide legislation on the matter is taking place.I thought you said that hadn't happened yet. that you were worried that it could happen.
That's a really disturbing question. What exactly do you mean by it?Only if they are willing to do sex right?
That is true, so, that is why other countries in Europe are better. I do support the stuff in green bold though, but not the stuff in red. The yellow is a maybe.LOL Holland is regarded as one of the most progressive countries in the world;
- same sex marriage
- cannabis in coffee shops
- a liberal attitude to sex and gender
- assisted euthanasia
- high taxes to fund social programs, education & healthcare
- a large public service
- strong environmental laws
- green urban planning
- strict gun control
- legalised prostitution
- renewable energy etc., etc.
Most of western Europe is progressive compared to the US which probably rates as one of the least progressive Western nations.
If you want to avoid progressives, may I recommend a trip to Russia or, better still, stay home.

How can they say anything if they have been erased?Yet many women are saying they're being replaced/erased.
The person on the candy wrapper isn't representing women.This isn't the only time a man has been chosen to represent women. And then there's all the males in female sports beating them out and setting new records etc...
In other words it's practically everywhere you look, unless you bury your head in the sand. Ignorance is bliss.
