Disgusted with the Biden administration

I think I finally figured it out.

The left normalizes mental illness.  The right celebrates it.

lol great comparison, you only moved the goal posts six miles. I don’t care if it went through congress Supreme Court whatever. When it works for things you agree with you are all for things being handled at state and local level is the point. Don’t be a hypocrite. You already won the election you can stop gaslighting a non issue now lol 

Also didn’t Ohio recently ban it at the state level? 

Sorry, not saying you do or do not, but anyone who believes a biological male should be playing sports against a biological female is a moron.

Good thing that wasn’t even part of the comv

Is it possible that there are bigger issues we could discuss that actually affect our lives? Are we actually paying attention to what is going on? Or just own the dems and it doesn’t matter

Anyone who has daughters or sisters who play sports it’s rather important to their lives  

Hope that helps

Like illegal immigration? Oh wait, you don’t think that affects anyone either. 

What is going on that isn’t being paid attention to, in your opinion?

I believe the discussion was where that decision should be made but carry on

Immigration is infinitely more important than men in women’s sports. ( not that it actually affects you personally) Yes. lol you have your big three you rail about but say zip about school shootings, church pedo rings, health care, housing, price of eggs, price of gas, social security , jobs, manufacturing, etc you gaslight the issues you want and they usually have to do with an immigrant a black person or a gay. 

Edit idgaf what you bitch about but pick something different so at least we can have new conversations not the same 3-4 things lol but maybe pick something that affects YOU

We have talked about all of those things. 

Manufacturing: Republicans generally want NAFTA revoked and to build back up our own manufacturing base. Democrats think doing that will create EF5 tornadoes in Manhattan and they want cheaper tvs. 

School shootings. Republicans want armed teachers/security and checkpoints going into schools. Democrats want a registry of gun owners and to strip the rights of owning all guns excepting muskets and revolvers. Personally, I think we have a huge mental health catastrophe in this country, just as we do with the amount of absolute fatasses.

Gas prices: Republicans want to be energy reliant and more nuclear energy. Democrats have been wanting to end that industry too, and want the US to use windmills to create energy. The Dems also think that importing energy from other countries is green.

Social Security: Republicans want to phase it out and have people invest on their own. Democrats generally want the govt to control it forever, although some are starting to acknowledge that sunsetting it might be the better alternative.

Housing: Republicans want to cut all the red tape that pays bureaucracies but delays construction. Democrats realize that paying bureaucracies keeps the job market above water and they want to be extremely careful about deforestation. 

Immigration: Republicans don't want mass amnesty all that much and don't believe that flooding the borders is a good idea. Democrats want mass amnesty and as we've seen these past years, will absolutely flood our borders.

Trans rights. Republicans don't want males competing against females. Democrats want males competing against females. The current conversation regarding the ERA nonwithstanding, it is another talking point used by Dems. They like to talk about it and campaign on it, but they will never do anything about it. Much like the abortion issue.

Black person or gay: I have no idea what this is supposed to mean. Is there a list of people that you do or don't want to talk about in general or what?

Apparently you refuse to read what you don’t want to understand.

Among the things you mentioned…

1. School shootings-talked about all the time on here, statistically not “important” but nonetheless how to protect schools is talked about a lot. Maybe you ignore those topics.

2. Lumping all of your price of things and jobs into economy. Yeah, you’re a moron if you don’t think that’s talked about a lot on here, but we already knew you were. 

3. Church pedo rings-when the Catholic Church was doing this and protecting priests it was discussed a ton. If you have more evidence it is happening again please share and we shall discuss. I mean we talk about Epstein and Diddy all the time as well and it’s the same issue. So again, do you just not read?

Just admit you don’t actually read this forum you just get on to bitch. 

I’m simply saying there surely is something in your life to discuss that is not the boogey man of trans women in sports that will never affect your life and was really just brought up for election purposes. Surely it has been beat to death on here. I never said those things were NEVER discussed. He asked for possible things to talk about that do affect his life. Those are the ones that came up in my head. It’s not that deep

I get your point, and your annoyance, but the trans shit has been brought up for years now, not just for the election. The bud light shit was April of ‘23, the Riley Gaines swimming shit in ncaa was ‘22.

Saying people will never be affected by a biological male competing against someone they know/love is as close to reality as saying school shootings will never affect you.

I get that a lot of these topics don't interest you and you don't want to participate. Ok, cool. But what topic have you introduced that you think would be a breath of the wild?

It doesn't matter who starts a new thread. Go start a new topic please. We don't mind.

Don’t really have anything else to complain about, but I couldn’t care less if Tik Tok goes away forever. Not sure why it’s so hard for a non-Chinese gov’t entity to design the same thing. Is it that bc they allow so much information to be taken that their algorithm is that much better? 

I'm against banning tiktok and I don't even use it. I just don't like the idea of our govt picking and choosing which apps sell our data. I also don't love the idea of our govt limiting what we can read, see or basically just communicate with. People have really memory-holed the Twitter Files, haven't they?

I'm for banning an app that is owned by the Chinese government and can be an easy way to gain information and data on the American people. That's why it passed in a bipartisan fashion and was upheld by the Supreme Court.

It's not a free speech argument. 

If tiktok wants to survive, they need to change ownership to a non Chinese entity. Plain and simple.

I'm struggling a bit to understand how selling it solves the underlying problem.  If the coders remain Chinese, and based in China...

Even if all the code and IP is transferred to the US, how confident are you all the backdoors that inevitably exist will be closed, or that the Chinese won't be able to regularly hack it?

This probably isn’t important, according to geeblock, and I wonder if ptown will ask if the Speaker has a medical degree or not….
