also because women are conditioned by libtards to think that even if they try to get more money, they wont, so why try at all?

Self defeating idiology is what it is.

Same thing goes for blacks in america.

If you aint got a shot in life, why even take one?

Its very sad.

How did this thought originally get in their minds if things are so equal? I suppose you will say women and blacks used to be unfairly treated and now they simply feel they are unfairly treated and it's simply not the case now, right?

This doesn't read like support. You dole out the appearance of respect to her, while name-checking her for virtue points, even though you've determined she's not the real deal huh? You're a paragon [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

yes, I suppose you think the way someone used to be treated generations ago, somehow has an effect on how people are treated today (I mean besides you libs saying that they are less than in every way, emotionally destroying their ability to grow and maintain their equal footing in America)

Yeah, it's insane. Like people should totally just be able to go from slavery, to Jim Crow, to being exactly like their former slave owners, because their past doesn't have any effect whatsoever on their present/future.

This was exactly the point I was trying to make. To all outward appearances (ie. everything I have to go on) my friend is a male who falsely claims to be transgender. But I'm not the one who gets to decide his/her sexuality/gender.

It's that whole "I may disagree with what you have to say, but I'll defend to the death your right to say it" thing. I may disagree that my friend is actually transgender (because by my understanding of the word a "real" transgender person wants to adopt their trans gender, at least on the surface if not surgically) ... but I'll defend anyone's right to define their own gender/sexuality regardless of what others (like myself) think.

i dont see how you adding to the cacophony of criticism is helpful to your friends journey.

like, don't gatekeep k?

[JurisDictum]

Gatekeeping
When someone takes it upon themselves to decide who does or does not have access or rights to a community or identity.
"I love punk bands like Green Day!"
"Ugh, they're not even punk. They totally sold out."

"Oh man, I love Harry Potter. I am such a geek!"
"Hardly. Talk to me when you're into theoretical physics."

"Erika Moen is my favorite queer cartoonist."
"She's not queer, she married a man!"
"Quit your gatekeeping. No one died and made you Queen of the Gays!"

Seriously though -- that bitch isn't gay if she married a man.

of course you do and that is part of the reason why I did not bother investing anymore in my last post than i did. this became evident in our last exchange :c had you any genuine
interest in propagating truth, or even understanding, you'd have worked with me in a focused discussion by answering my questions OR asking more of your own.

Instead, you want a source war. I'm sorry, but I don't know what information you need to make sense of my argument and I neither catalogue nor remember much of anything. I'm neither interested in nor capable of shoving piles of information back and forth. i do however possess an exceptional talent for discrimination and offered it for your use, but you just ignored it :c

People in this forum say a lot of crazy, if not flat out false things (I'm looking at you Mick [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]). Anyone can repeat whatever stupid thing someone they idolize (their favorite radio talk show host, tv news personality, blogger, etc.) says, no matter how false it may be. All I'm asking is that when people say things that sound crazy to me, that they somehow explain where that crazy belief is coming from, so that I can honestly consider whether they have a legitimate point or are just spouting baseless beliefs.

I'm not looking for an essay with footnotes for ten primary sources, I'm just saying if you (not you specifically, the general you) say all BLM protesters are violent psychopaths, I'm going to ask you to show me something that suggests that all BLM protesters are violent psychopaths. And if the thing you show me is some random guy's blog, or something not even related to the conversation (again, looking at you Mick), I'm going to call you out on it.

you write a lot and have a lot of information ^^ I cannot address everything you say at once, nor am I interested in addressing every tangent you introduce when you ignore the substance of my argument :c

I respond to the stuff I disagree with, or the stuff I really strongly agree with. I'm not sure exactly what substance of what argument you are referring to (this thread is 20+ pages long), but most likely I just agreed with most of it and singled out one part because it (unlike the rest of what you wrote) seemed wrong to me.
