So because the person was different you decided to not be polite? Are you just offering up that you're an ass unprompted for some reason?
1) No, it wasn't because he was different. It was due to incognruence with expectation.
2) A great many laughs are involuntary. This was one of those.
3) The first asshole to enter this conversation is you.

Just curious what prompted you to post that. Was it to promote conversation on a culture topic?

Yes. I imagine he "identifies as" a girl. We've got a giant shitload of stupidity in American culture these days, but nothing dumber than gender ideology. It's perhaps the #1 reason I've abandoned the Democratic Party after 3+ decades.

So you want discuss the topic of gender identity? And this is how you abstractly brought it up? You do realize it's not a pillar of the Democratic party, and the only reason it gets talked about is due to the Republican party? What do you know about the topic? Are you aware that transgender people have been around for thousands of years across many different cultures and societies?

Yeah, usually when I bring up a topic, there's an indicent involved. Otherwise, I would've brought it up another time. And a vote for the Democratic Party absolutely promotes gender ideology. I'm currently in a bad position, because voting Republican going forward (which is likely) means I will be indirectly supporting a lot of things I don't wish to support, but I will be taking a stand against racism, sexism, gender ideology, illegal immigration, and cancel culture, among other things, and that makes me happy.

I know a shitload on the topic and can discuss anything you wish. For starters, I know the left constantly changes the definition of gender to suit their interests at any given moment, but the chief definition offered by the left is gender = imaginary sex. They don't use that wording, but that's what they're getting at. People imagining their sex to be something different than in reality and acting like their imagination counts for something is indeed relatively new.

If men simply wanted to be allowed to do womanly stuff on their own time (as over the course of history), I would and do fully support that.

If you think it's relatively new, then you truly don't much of anything on the topic. You understand sex and gender isn't the same thing don't you? Not sure how you equate voting Republican to taking a stand against racism, sexism and cancel culture. Not sure it even is a stand against gender ideology, whatever that means, they believe in rigid gender ideological roles. They actively promote cancel culture by rewriting history and science they don't agree with. If you can vote for the current Republican party you were never a Democrat.

Yes, those who can read know I don't equate sex and gender, and I know the left does not equate sex and gender. They simply want to replace sex with gender, and they've been largely successful in doing so. It sounds to me like you've got a very narrow and incorrect view of conservatives.

History and current events are absolutely being rewritten en masse by yourself and other leftists, including universities, journalists, Wikipedia, Google, ChatGPT.

I would say, "Anytime you want to talk science, racism, sexism, etc., just let me know," but when you say,

that tells me you're no average liberal. That tells me you're a three-year-old, and far less worthy of engagement.

You're new around here, and maybe if you stay around you'll learn a thing or two, you can ask anyone here I'm not a leftist or liberal.

Oh, great. So you're only liberal in those areas where liberals are dumb as fuck? As for me, I can still be called a moderate liberal, but I'm fiercely anti-woke, and that will affect how I vote.

What does anti woke even mean?
It means you are against woke ideology.

Even though "woke" is a very commonly used phrase that every knows what it is, I'll give you a basic definition before you ask.
"woke:" overly sensitive, politically left-leaning, prioritize identity politics, hyper aware of perceived social injustices, or in favor of progressive ideas.

Woke means different things to different. I've always understood it to be catch all for anything the right doesn't like. Overly sensitive describes both sides

Wokism is great because the only facts that matter anymore are skin color, sex, self-concept, sexual orientation, and religious/political affiliation. These things alone will tell you, in any situation, who's guilty or innocent, who's oppressor or oppressed, whether a person deserves care, consideration, support, or respect, whether a person has any rights, etc. Reality used to be too damn complicated, but now everything is super simple.

I have long transcripts with ChatGPT where it admits to being bigoted as fuck and lying its ass off in order paint poor straight White male conservative Christians as absolute garbage and anybody it fancies as "marginalized" in the most glowing light imaginable, denying crimes and immoral behaviors, and inventing accomplishments out of thin air.

Thing is, ChatGPT isn't remotely abnormal. It's simply programmed by the woke for the woke, and if you're smart enough and persistent enough in asking questions, it will openly admit to all of this.

I will say I have seen a lot of videos about Kirk in the last 12 hours, a lot of them are just absolutely awful. A lot of them are democrats that disagreed with Kirk but supported his decisions with others and trying to understand why they believed what they did.

This week was an awful week for a nation that will be having the anniversary of one of the worst days in American history today.

This has to change.

Sounds like rifle found. Bullets have pro transgender and anti fascist writings.

If that's true, can probably rule out anything right of center unless it was a false flag or whatever you call it

If they were able to find the rifle, and undoubtedly the shot location, UTS should be able to fill in the gaps. Palm prints, bolt action rifle (looked like a 30 cal (.308 or maybe a 6.5) to me based on the video),... I haven't heard about bullets or the trans/fascist angle reported yet. That is quite a substantial amount of data to support the investigation.

CNN is reporting they found ammo as well. There are also clips of a "person of interest".

UTS identified the individual, his dress, and how and where he fled the scene-which led to the rifle. I imagine this investigation could be wrapped up rather quickly.

I haven't been following closely enough? They thought they had the guy, then they were wrong? So, the shooter is still at large?

Not sure how close they are or are not to catching this person, nor do we know if this is actually "the guy" considering the FBI was wrong on the other person detained yesterday.

Two people IIRC.
Yeah there was some boomer on the ground that they quickly said was the wrong person and then a second suspect Kash Patel tweeted about that they then verified was also not who they were looking for.

Shouldn't be hard to find that guy. Sizeable reward offered so someone will say who that is. Whether he's the guy or not is another matter.

Kash Patel is running the investigation the same way Reddit investigated the Boston bombing lol.
