  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

Right here:

Ted Cruz rails against Anheuser-Busch for stonewalling his probe of partnership with Dylan Mulvaney​

I don't see the connection. Maybe you can break it down into a logical argument.

Point taken. So if AB has alrady turned over their demographics to a review panel; then what is the harm in letting Cruz review it?

“When did you quit beating your wife?”—would you answer a loaded question like that?

Now that we all know, the question is, do you understand what a millstone is and why one would be hung around a persons neck.

You’re concerned that a 20 year old might see Bud light ads and think “why should I wait another year until I grab me a Bud light?”

I’m guessing that the fine people at AB-InBev do not wish to find out “what harm” releasing these documents could maybe do?

Well it was already reviewed by the foxes at the review board. What could possibly go wrong?

This is Ted Cruz we’re talking about, could be nothing? Could be barrel-bacon? Who knows?

The connection was pushed by bigoted conservatives, not the trans community.
Oh so that's who's behind drag queen story hour and LGBTQ curriculm in elementry schools and mobs marching down the street chanting "we're here, we're queer, we're coming for your children!" etc.

The chant was an obvious (albeit ill-advised IMO) attempt at trolling the right regarding their pearl clutching about kids. Your side ought to be embarrassed that you guys can’t tell the difference between a genuine threat and sarcasm.

That argument might work if it wasn't for drag queen story hour, drag queen shows for kids and LGBTQ curriculum in elementry schools etc. It's like they get deeply involved with children, and then start that chant, but it's just supposed to be sarcasm and satire, even though it's actually happening in spades.

The Law of the land says that people who are LGBTQIA+ cannot be discriminated against in employment or public accommodations and the earlier kids begin to know this, the better, so that they can respect the Laws that we all live under.

The law of the land says people period can not be discriminated against. Drag queen story hour, drag queen shows for kids with erotic kinky outfits, and teaching little kids in elementary school about all the multiple genders and orientations they can be, obviously doesn't really have anything to do with that.

All of the LGBTQQIP2SAA+ stuff involving children doesn't really have anything to do with a fight against discrimination, but rather it's about gaining control over society.

The argument would work if your side understood sarcasm.

If a clown were reading to kids at the library, would you be concerned that the clown was trying to recruit them into clown college? No? Then why do you fear that drag queens are trying to recruit them into being lgbtq?

Clowns aren't all about sexuality, multiple genders and multiple sexual orientations. Drag queens are. What LGBTQQIP2SAA+ wants to recruit is a society that happily goes along with whatever they want.

Clown college, you are really scraping the bottom of the barrel.

Yes, one day our children will be running things, that’s why they should have all the requisite knowledge of “who is ’allowed’ where/when” before they take over.

“Clowns* don’t do it for the sexual-jollies that drag queens do!” [Not a direct quote AFAIK, but it’ve seen this sentiment here before]

*I’m sure every party-clown can probably pass a background check, maybe.
