  1. you son of a parent. lol. you made me download the pdf and try to comprehend that garbage. 43 pages!! i see fact check that says it was for that single piece of legislation then i also see Under the changes, words like “father,” “mother,” “son,” “daughter,” “brother” and “sister” will be replaced in official documents by the gender-neutral terms “parent,” “child” or “sibling,” respectively. so what is a "official documents"..plural? im not sure but it would lead me to believe that this can easily be seen as a beginning step. i never thought that they were banning gendered language from speeches. if a republican said father i wasn't implying that they would halt the proceedings and arrest someone from speaking. but did think it was required for all bills and rules as i would think that would be concidered having to be written up on "official documents". either way it looks to be a virtue signaling tactic that does not encompass as much as i thought. ill admit i may have not gotten the full facts on it and have been enlightened. ill def look more into it more now. what i will say, when it comes to this. its a drop in the bucket. so then you have this interaction between rand paul and rachel levine. i think that deserves a direct answer. but maybe thats me. just another drop in the bucket. then you have attempted censorship by the ACLU of a book on the study of the damage to transgendered teens who have made irreparable decisions. WHY would this be on a censor list? why would someone have to fight a organization that used to fight for freedom of speech? just to hide that there ARE negative consequences to these decisions. it isnt all sunshine for some people and the decision should be taken VERY seriously. another drop. https://www.iwf.org/2020/11/16/some-in-aclu-have-new-cause-book-banning/ so then we look at the amount of childrens books, shows, influences, forced educations, even against their parents wishes. (some examples shown in this thread). the fight against established science of two sexes. the rise of "violence" if you use the wrong pronoun and banning off platforms for even discussing the other side. the women right advocates being attacked for wanting their own sports, scholarships ect. ect. its almost if there werent gay pride parades all over the country. gay bars and night clubs. gay actors and performers who have been very successful. gay right to marry. shows specifically designated towards this lifestyle, some of which was established decades before any of this. but the lgbt community has a subsector of trans so we MUST focus all our attention on that now. if you don't, or question it publically, then you are a bigot. and you wonder why this subject envokes a emotional response? why people are swayed by another announcement of a drip going into the , you must conform to this thinking or else, bucket?
  2. i always try to conversate with those that will do back with thoughtful discussion. the internet has more then enough name calling spats that go nowhere. i was not calling you personally a supremist. i was just pointing out how the cancel mob has no issue superseding the voices of who is being effected the most. as with most things today it turns into a all or nothing referendum as i am a white supremist for not agreeing and trying to maintain a racist trope. at the end of the day i think we should ask those mostly effected and stop allowing others to step in and make those demands. it brings obserdity to the conversation. it also become profitable as those calling for the attention have stories to produce for clicks and gofundme to link for support. manufactured outrage. we can look at a potato toy and agree (id hope) removing a gender is inconsequential to anything as they even still have genders in the actual product, just not brand name. but when you combine that with the fact a major body of government has banned all gendered language you (id hope) say hey that's crazy and may be going to far in society. when it comes to historical writing (id hope) that all can not be viewed under the same glass. some writing requires the historical ugly past context, some doesn't. will you fight on behalf of the ones that do? instead of snap decisions from a mob that clearly has no basis in reality for some of what they call for.. this needs actual debate. unfortunatly anyone making these arguments is given a label regardless of the content of the discussion. so the right will fight EVERYTHING because it IS leading to some impactful negative changes. such as abolishing police area violence spikes, 3 year old given options to gender change. THREE!? ect ect there's a middle ground and we may disagree but as long as there are people willing to make a honest dialogue then hopefully neither extreme will fully win, but lets be real, the left is in the drivers seat. if leftist dont speak up on these things then its not going to end well. imo. so i am. the fact you don't simply throw trump argument at me and stick around to defend your point truley does give me hope. believe me when i tell you ive taken your points into consideration on my stance.
  3. i wasnt generally talking about you. just giving the question to those who feel that way. is it a racist trope if the people that are closely associated with it do not see it that way. the fact noone seems to take their opinion as the end of the discussion seems pretty supremist to me. so the question really is how far does it go? when is it (lol) they mad at a potato toy and oh my god that is wrong and should be stopped? it doesn't seem like the left is concerned about drawing a line and will attack everything with impunity. case instance the set design at cpac..racism!! designed by a liberal owned company whos done tons of sets designs for biden in the past and meant nothing they say was intended...opps. but are targeted just the same. on to the next one. you went back in time and showed a racist advertisement as justification but removing her also removes that history. noone will ever see her face and look back at her life, the companies history, and how her image persevered through that time to a point where society now simply saw her as a well known brand identifier. a smiling face to greet you for your pancakes. you are the ones seeing the racism then calling others that name..for not seeing the same thing?
  4. so when you bought pancake mix you saw this black face on the brand and thought about slavery and minstrel shows and it offended you? so now that you see pearl milling company as a logo your more at ease at the breakfast table? even though i put a story that said her descendants and community felt her dipiction was a homage to her. your thoughts on the subject override the people most closely associated to it?
  5. we live in a world where a famous black person was removed off of packaging of rice by the demand of mostly white people. the company removed a black face from their product...so they can sell more rice. and not be racist. read that again. now lets talk about pancakes and syrup. do you know who nancy green is? don't worry. that person will no longer spark curiosity about black history and culture. https://abcnews.go.com/US/untold-story-real-aunt-jemima-fight-preserve-legacy/story?id=72293603 I was, I was taken aback. I was really shocked. I knew people didn't realize that those were real people and, you know, to phase them out, would kind of erase their history,” Harris said No time ever have I heard anyone in my community say that this image was one that was derogatory. So I don't know where that sentiment is coming from," she said. just a few examples of how the racists are winning. keep up the good fight sjws!
  6. there is also a major news paper that picked it up. https://nypost.com/2021/02/24/buffalo-students-told-all-white-people-play-a-part-in-systemic-racism/
  7. [district analysis of the program found that more than 70 percent of students enrolled in the program were white and Asian, even though nearly 80 percent of all Boston public school students are Hispanic and Black. Last fall, 453 students received invitations, 143 students applied and 116 enrolled this year, officials said.] so 310 students did not even apply and 27 who did, did not make it in. unless all 27 were black and hispanic the real issue might be why aren't black/hispanic kids applying!? could a contributing factor be kids not thinking they have a shot because they get told their skin color will be a factor that holds them back in their lives? it doesn't even say what % of black hispanics are eliminated that attempted to attend yet has leaders, who should be well aware of specific stats when it comes to enrollment, getting "disturbed". I'm disturbed these people need a pandemic to notice things like this and year long "studies" to figure them out for the first time.
  8. yeah, when you call out the radicals they usually come out and try to derail the topic. i try not to give the desired attention as its usually a waste of time. not like i can have a reasonable discussion or change the mind of somone who includes "filthy bigot" as a predisposition. i can imagine he fine tooth combed my post again, saw nothing more to latch onto after he cherry picked topics of his choice, and will not reply again. i went to buffalo public schools. if this is true its somewhat personal. i guess that's why im more inclined to engage with posters i normally wouldn't on this one.
  9. did i give any assumptions i agree with banning the morning after pill? i specifically said theres a middle ground. there are people advocating late term abortions under right to choose!! the hell are you reading. that second paragraph shows your a zealot who pushes everyone into a box but talks about demonizing. i clearly stated these are RADICAL positions. but proving my point for me is a good thing.
  10. i didn't think it was that bad. lol i agree with most of what you say but your ideas are coming from a adult who has lived experiences not the children its aimed at. im all for inclusionary lessons about anti racism and anti bullying but there just seems to always be a extremist viewpoint that is getting injected into the things most people agree with. the normal citizens do not seem to identify it and fight against it. anti racism seems to have to include demonizing a race and ironically promoting segregation. it does not need those things to be successful at creating a better society trans rights seems to have to include removing scientific understanding of 2 genders and terms like mother, father ect ect womens right to choose now means terminating a fully formed human with pain receptors up and until it is birthed. when did the debate about life shift to that extreme? i find that as crazy as stopping all rights to choose and sending women back to horrific stories of back alley doctors. there's a middle ground being against illegal immigration somehow equates to racism. but immigration reform is most likely neccessary if it has become overtly difficult. being proud of america and its values suddenly became holding up a white supremist patriarchy? if all these extremes would be denounced i think we would be on a better path to at least be able to compromise but sadly i think its turned into all or nothing proposition from both sides. your either fully on board or not at all. we as citizens have to fig out how to tell our leaders we want to compromise...but im not sure that is even true anymore. 😔
  11. i presented a 3 hour documentary on the topic from professors that were in a school where this was taught. they are giving their own personal accounts. it doesnt get much more in depth then that. this may be a extreme circumstance...but it did happen by eveyone "screaming and moaning" do you mean this forum..that you made the fourth reply to? or twitter which is nothing but those things mentioned. im not seeing allot of screaming here. just giving their opinions on the topic for the most part...out of the 6 replies. if you want the story as in a news format here you go. https://www.city-journal.org/buffalo-public-schools-critical-race-theory-curriculum other then that i guess we will see how long it takes for a full unbiased, in depth story on a specific school district takes before people are able to discuss it.
  12. critical race theory was brought into schools a long time ago. it made the news for alittle while but many may have missed it. i encourage everyone to take some time out of your day and watch this documentary on it. its free. costs you nothing and is told by a teacher that, remember, worked in the most libral culturally sensitive place in our country. i have no children and if you do, you owe it to yourself to see the other side of what this has the ability to do. you may notice some similarities with recent events. part 1 part 2 part 3
  13. you have to include whats happened during the pandemic. governments have historically used time of crisis/fear to whittle away at freedom and cease more control. its at this time people have to stay hyper vigilant. im not talking strictly democrats...for instance, see the patriot act and listen to what snowden says it entails i agree with you that small buisness needs help but unfortunately its too little to late for many. the fact so many were arbitrarily closed with no guidelines to stay open is a direct power grab. like i said the basic human right to earn a living taken away and for many, its not coming back. the hypocracy of allowing big box stores to remain open while funneling all revenue in their direction when there was no evidence it slowed any spread. there was info later on where places like barber shops showed miniscule spread. this was how small buisness and middle class were targeted for no legitimate reason. hindsight is not making that reasoning, as many were protesting these truths a very long time ago. as for religion. many were closed. jewish temples were overtly targeted with padlocks in NYC. yet thousands protested in much larger groups. both are under rights to peacefully assemble correct? there is also the division of church and state that was trampled. not sure how the two are any different. luckly the supreme court stepped in...it the only reason both ruling are being laxed, under direct court order. unfortunatly you don't seem to understand how deep censorship has gotten. i dont think i can tell you just how many people have been "cancelled" and lost thier livelihoods for simply speaking their own mind on a topic that does not fit the narrative. not spewing conspiracies, not attacking anyone yet those that have made direct death threats are perfectly fine. promient people who called for the killing of children (covington). antifa who can and STILL organize to this day on platforms. this isn't about terms of service or consequences for wrong actions. its not even close to equal. this is about steering society into the condemnation of those who don't agree. say its a private company and go elsewhere and when you do.. they attack it with ( a place where HATE SPEECH is allowed to thrive ). label anything hate speech and its easy to shut things down. wallstreet bets were labeled all those thing...even russians! to try and get them to stop forcing hedgefunds to pay on their shortselling, eventually they just unlawfully stopped the ability to buy the stock. that's not the america i knew and it definitely is not a example of having "the same rights no more or less"
  14. are you a small buisness owner? i think they have the right to provide for their families and not be arbitrarily shut down under threats fines and padlocks. no scientific evidence, complying with cdc guidelines and hypocritical big box stores open right next door...as a start losing everything you built up over your lifetime and no way to put food on the table might have people worked up are you religious? did you want to peacefully assemble to practice your faith last year? even though it is in the constitution and other groupings were allowed to group as they pleased? do you think you have a right to protect yourself and your belongings from others without prosecution? how many were denied that right last year? can you enjoy freedom of speech? do you think that extends to others who don't have your political or social ideaology? do you think all those that lost their livelihoods because a mob decided they "deserved" it? would you like to read a book on the negative effects transgenderism is having on teenagers? the ACLU (they used to stand up for free speach) tryed and was successful at blocking its sale for a time. would you like to talk about or obtain information on covid medically and origins that is not confirmed with the mainstream, how about elections? see how far the convo goes before its censored. would you like to buy stock in a company called gamestop? it was perfectly legal..nope. shut down. but only if your hurting the hedgefund gov financiers. would you like to use a buisness service alternative to twitter. a legitamate competitor that broke no laws but was still shut down by major tech monopolies under lies that it promoted extremism..while facebook where the groups really formed was unmentioned and untouched. soon we will be talking about gun rights..thats coming. im glad you still have all your freedoms and rights but look outside yourself to see whats happening. these were just a few things i guess we took for granted 5 10 years ago. should i go on?
  15. this one im alittle torn over. there is no way the min wage comes close to allowing someone the ability to care for oneself let alone anyone else. i think a jump that high is definatly destructive to small buisness, brings all other wages down and will quickly be nullified by inflation. so anyone cheering this on. youll be talking about low wages but also higher unemployment very shortly. but i also see how companies are using the gov to sublimate their workforce on the taxpayers backs. welfare, food stamps, heap ect ect. there's a unspoken agreement where workers and companies are taking advantage of social services so incentive by both sides to not offer "full" time or simply not enter the workforce is pretty high regardless. so whats a good solution? alot of bootstrapers say get a skill to not work min wage. most of those people have good jobs and many i talk to are from the older generation. a good paying factory job with benefits, pension was waiting with your hs diploma. those are pretty rare today. now higher education isnt the answer unless youd like a house payment..to get a job. so whats left? picking a trade school, join the military or be connected enough to be given a opportunity your not really "qualified" for. thats about it.
  16. alot of qbs hitting the market. josh has dodged the injury bullet matrix style with his style of play i think we need to upgrade the backup spot because as of now josh goes down our season ends. thanks barkley time to look elsewhere.
  17. i could of sworn the fbi was arresting people all over the country, are they not asking questions? people are getting cancelled simply for being in the area having nothing to do with breaking the law or storming the capital while others are being placed on no fly lists as investigations continue. the person everyone feels is responsible just went through a impeachment trial where any and all evidence could have been presented and he is also possibly facing criminal charges from states. banks have closed his accounts, contracts have been negated, blacklists have been made with anyone he was involved with. yeah um a new commission is needed to uncloak this organization shrowded in mystery. 🙄 maybe if they left parler up...they could just READ about it!? yes? no?maybe? that's a no because most the groups formed on FACEBOOK! and facebook does not track a log information so its gone forever. lol hey LA times there a little place close to you were groups are still openly organizing and causing havoc. latest one was blocking police from going to emergency calls, emergency calls are kind of important to regular people. they dont get 24 hour national guard watches and walls. if we learned anything from texas recently is snow storms are minor innconviences and if not, they are just peasants anyhow..no rush. by all means the democrats should finish what they are doing first. https://www.lacortenews.com/n/antifa-blocks-seattle-pd-from-responding-to-emergencies-with-snow-barrier
  18. i love the argument that this government is taken by surprise by anyone. if you believe snowden and anything in the patriot act then they can tap into any phone text or website. yet.. "what is this parlar app?" "is this where the PLANS were made?" " we must BEGIN to watch for this for a protest organized by the PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES. so either they fully knew about EVERY riot, every plan and every participant and allowed it..again or the fbi/cia was caught off guard and has been proven to be the most inept organizations when it comes to domestic security on the planet.
  19. in that regard i understand more clearly what your saying. in my opinion a policy to force the sick into those facilities made no sense then, and none now which is why certain people were declaring they wanted investigations early last year and were ignored by those in the media, until now. there is a picture of a sheet on a overpass "cuomo killed my mother" as early as may. again this was incentivised! the nursing homes were used as quarantine facilities you speak of, which is the worst possible selection that anyone at any time regardless of situation could choose. if there was some proof that there was no other facility that would not accept 5000 dollars to house these people together then i guess he had no other choice, but i don't think that is true and his coverup may mean we may never know. to chalk this up to desperate times desperate measures or ignorance is a mistake. i have no professional understanding of viruses and without hindsight i could say that i questioned that decision, as did many others. i can't prove it but there is a basic level of understanding that was as dangerous as it gets when dealing with a pandemic that was obviously killing the elderly at high rates. when it comes to asymptomatic people allowed to go home this is different from the topic of forcing them into nursing homes. this is still the practice of today so advising them to stay away from vulnerable or offering a alternative, like the ship or center as temporary quarantine places for people with "one bathroom" ect ect SHOULD be the practice, regarless if they knew if it spreads. 5000 dollars pays for alot of options other then nursing homes regardless. you choose to expose a vulnerable family member thats on your conscience. no forcing, no "mah freedoms" and no hindsight required to keep people from spreading. but they FORCED people from OUTSIDE nursing homes to go there as well and the homes were happy to take the money sentancing those people to death. if you feel the decision was just another blunder in the large assortment during this pandemic your well articulated and we simply disagree. if you include his coverup in this argument, the media ignoring and the blocking of investigations then that's where we severely disagree.
  20. i understand what your saying and get tough decisions have to be made but from the very beginning objective number 1 above all else should have been protect the vulnerable. even a common flu could be deadly to elderly so no new or extra info was needed to understand that introducing this to the elderly let alone FORCING by mandate was a not questionable mistake. it was a demented enforcement. not only that, they incentivized it by offering nursing homes $5000 dollars per person so young people were pushed in as well. id love to understand what lunatic science backed this decision.
  21. but my scumbag is better then your scumbag! where i find a problem is republican scumbags are ousted by mainstream media routinley and the other scumbags have been ignored which is why this "new" story is so infuriating. this story was not a secret. it was well known and is only now being investigated. I'm actually shocked that the media is in unison condemning this. even cnn with the cuomo brothers comedy hour is reporting!? maybe this will be a turning point where both sides get the same scrutiny. im actually catching some good hard questions in the wh press room lately. hopefully this trend continues as there are loads of corruption and lies to expose on both sides.
  22. so hes guilty? your judge jury and executioner on the matter of impeachment and anyone who doesn't see it your way does not have a conscience? we had a long discussion about democrats call to violence and the murder victims that resulted? have you reached a conscience on who you want to be held accountable yet? maybe i didnt make a good enough case in that thread. if you think trump is not going to pay a heavy price for what he's done then you haven't paid attention to the banks that no longer will do buisness with him. the contracts he's lost and everyone around him INCLUDING his legal team for the very impeachment you speak of abandoning (trying to) him. also lets not foget about democrats calling for "lists" to cancel, degrade and destroy anyone he has touched.. including simple supporters that had no part of insorrection. not good enough? this impeachment.. is the ultimate icing on the cake? maybe. but even if he was impeached i think he would still be used to deflect from any misdoings by the democratic party. i mean a police officer was killed..as were many this summer. a unarmed qanon woman was shot..same as a 8 year old little girl and HUNDREDS of innocent people living in abolish police zones. it can go back and forth but this thread is about cuomo. speaking of which, i think its odd you didnt touch any point about cuomo and the boat that sat empty. why. call him a evil POS that intentionally tryed to cover up his deplorable decision. its not hard. see when trump lied about covid the media was on him like locusts. how long did his lies last? im pretty sure his lies cost him the election as they were brought to light. but here we are a full year out of cuomos lies and they are just at the beginning phase of being revealed after recieving book deals, Emmy and accolades from his peers and those not paying attention. i remember those "quacks" at fox being the only media covering the story even as cuomo routinley blocked investigations. i also remember a lone banner hanging from a interstate say "cuomo killed my mother" last year in may. people in NY know. victims families knew it was a horrendous decision immediately. yet i guess that wasnt interesting to anyone in journalism to have a conscience, until of coarse, the objective was reached. theres a difference and if you dont start acknowledging it then your going to be lost in partisanship like those who defend trumps every decision. your no better..just different. why? because there is alot more to be revealed if journalist are willing to cover the other side with the same scrutiny as they covered trump. i promise this won't be the only evil that is uncovered and people defending those decisions.
  23. its very rare to have someone simply agree that their side has done horrific things. most would rather divert the conversation and play a game of "whatabout" so i give him credit for going against what he formally believed and calling it what it is. that deserves respect. in this polarized world,if we all can do that society will be on the right track again.
  24. i dont know. like i said he performed very well the year before with a aging frank gore. i think his elusiveness is a quality thats hard to replicate. speed is great but i didnt see him getting any openings that would have helped and if thats a factor i dont think moss is applying any afterburners Singletary lacks. i really dont know which direction the coaching staff would go but having a stud force that decision isnt the worst idea. i just think it can be had in other rounds or FA.
  25. yeah i agree. im fighting it on this very message board. its hard to not come off as crazy with all the lies being told in unison but like you said their are still states fighting for freedom. noone even cares that riots are still happening nightly in portland but guess what. people are fleeing those places to the places you describe. people are tuning out the superbowl as they include more social justice then entertainment...low ratings. people are watching the cdc flipflop on thier rulings and news organizations describe everything as racist sexist ect ect. courts are now beginning to step in to defend the constitution..very slowly. newsomes recall is almost 1.5 million. the medias announcement of wall street bets being "radicals" or "russians" was laughed out of the room. it takes time to wake up..ironically from the wokeness but its happening. i wish it did not take some of the blatant atrocities but how long can the murder rates rack up innocent people before you say...abolishing police was pretty stupid. how long can you advocate censorship until it eliminates a voice you think is important? how long can you listen to lies before you seek truth. how long can you watch your children and community deteriorate and think your safer for it. unfortunatly the answer is a year and counting but each one of these things a few more are snapping out of it every day. when they do and their is a understanding who the real enemies are there will be a new understanding that we are not each others....i hope
