Fuck buc-ees

I read that as fondle of music theater. Love it.

I need to play devil’s advocate here. I need to preface with I agree with what you’re saying, but from my experience as a cis male, every year I was in sports starting in 7th grade, I had to get a physical where a doctor would touch my balls and shove their figures up where they dropped checking for hernias when I coughed.

If every athlete has to go through that same exam, it’s going to be pretty obvious if someone has male genitalia. I don’t think that a doctor should be required to or be legally able to speak on the makeup of someone’s genitals, but I also am not sure on how this is handled if it’s enforced legally.

Again, I agree that this is bad policy and anti trans, and I disagree with it.

For sure. Definitely build the case for everyone and charge those that have enough evidence when possible. That will likely mean the grunts will get nailed first, and hopefully those cases can be used to take down the bigger players.

I literally pointed out that it’s possible to condemn using slurs while focusing on other issues. When fighting for trans health rights, a person can also call out someone for throwing out slurs as part of their fight. Nobody here is saying that the rhetoric has to be battled specifically and separately. It absolutely should be a part of the overall fight.

People that hate being told that they can’t use slurs can fuck right off. Eventually, those people will be ostracized for being the shit they are. How often do you see politicians dropping n-bombs and of those times, how many of them were just accepted as using acceptable language? That language once upon a time was socially acceptable, but because there was a concerted effort to change that, it’s no longer something people get away with without social consequences. Slurs against trans is the next iteration of that.

It’s just wild to me how gung-ho you are about defending the use of slurs and not condemning it.

Better than just accepting it and actively arguing against fighting it.

It’s not defamation if it’s true.

There’s enough lawyers to go after both and more.

You do know that it’s possible to both call out and condemn a person for their hate speech AND work on legislation, right? It’s not like dem reps are just sitting in their offices all day devoting all their effort to this single issue.

You being so against Dems fighting hate rhetoric really paints a picture of your character.

The diver pedophile situation was the big turning point for me. I wouldn’t say I was a fan boy or anything, but I certainly didn’t think he was the scum of the Earth. Then like a light switch, he because a shittier, more evil Montgomery Burns.

As a child of the 90s in the midwest, I can look back and see how my optics have transitioned on gay people. I was never hateful, but I definitely had and aversion. I don’t think it was a conscious decision necessarily to change but just being exposed to more demographics once I moved out of my small town and the normalization of it in media naturally changed my perception. When guys kissed on TV before it was kind of jarring and ‘wrong’. Now I get happy when I see same sex couples irl and on TV.

I’m not a fan of PDA in general, but for many years now it’s no different who’s smooching who.

I think that the more normalized it gets, the less people will care even in the most bigoted places. Eventually everyone will personally know someone that is gay or trans, and it will just stop mattering to them as they realize their just people. I wish it were faster, but it wasn’t so long ago that same sex marriage was legalized and there’s been a lot of positive change and acceptance. Generational bias takes a long time to change out.

I’d prefer a prolonged suffering for him, both physically and financially, but for the betterment of the people domestic and abroad, I’ll gladly take a quick ending and a posthumous charging of his and his families crimes.

It’s not the justice he deserves, but it would be best for everyone in the short term.

If you think that every politician will vote for finding more destruction in the middle east, then that point is a wash across the board. In the end either Paxton or Talarico will be a senator after this election regardless if you vote or not. I’m not even going to address your Ukrainian Nazis bullshit, because of all the dumb shit you’ve said, that’s right there at the top.

So with that, what’s left? How about all of the other policies that get voted on, like domestic policies that do directly effect Americans? You do know that there in fact is more than just the middle east, right? Paxton has shown time and time again to be bad for Americans and Talarico by all accounts will push better policy. So yea, that’s a win for the left.

You act like if everyone just stops participating in voting that all of this will just correct itself, and that’s dumb AF. Maybe you also missed how in the Midwest there are many positions that are predicted to flip blue. That is holding representatives accountable to a degree, but I’m sure that’s not the accountability that you’re looking for.

So after all that, it sounds like instead of voting you’re going to go out and be the catalyst that holds these people accountable, right? You’re not just going to be some keyboard warrior and just criticize people that are taking action at the polls, instead of just pissing and moaning, right?

Thanks for the user block recommendation. It’s nice when y’all make comments this fucking dumb that I don’t even need to think if it’s worth seeing anything else you have to say.

How is a Talarico not a win for leftists? That would imply that Paxton is an equally good or better option for leftists.

Even if Talarico comes in and passes one liberal policy or even none, that is still an improvement over Paxton. Do you think that as a senator that Talarico wouldn’t vote with the Democratic party on most if not all policies? Having a dog voted in as senator would be a win to the left because it would mean it’s not Paxton.

It takes some real mental gymnastics to come to the conclusion that he’s not a win for the left.

Step 1: fix the reflecting pool.

I don’t know necessarily if they will be harder to find, but I do know that compounding bad fixes to get harder to fix over time. I just think it would be interesting to see if the AI code is responsible for more CVEs in the long term or if it’s just finding more things unrelated to those code changes.

I assume this is associated with AI. I do wonder if any of the recent CVEs are due to prior patches using AI code.

I hope to see polling numbers of before and after his last push. There’s no way this has been beneficial for Republicans. I can’t imagine they are earning any new voters at this stage.

I wonder where Argen they’ll go tina.
