The Pushback against Leftism

You're being obtuse. Of course one's sexual interest is in the brain/mind but what makes one a lesbian or gay is not based ones sense of gender it's based on the fact that one is sexually interested in the same physical sex one is. I know you totally understand that.

Your point if you even believe it all because I detect your just playing with me is arguing in favour of gender ideology. GI changes the whole definition of homosexuality. You can agree with it all you like but it will never stand with us.

As for your last sentence there I just have to laugh at that painfully leftist style rhetoric.

Lol true enough you didn't name anyone in that post. Hypothetical nonsense on top of hypothetical nonsense.

no no no, just stirring the pot about Mermaid etc.

Leave what where? There was no relevant coherent question. I love how you think there is some sort of gotcha in this manufactured hypothetical no names situation.. yeah best to leave it indeed 🙏

Just asking questions 😉😉😉

Was the RTE guy a sock fetishist?

no comment...

Not to ignore that question Andrew but the bigger question I have is why is any discussion on the left always eventually framed around Trans issues by people who gravitate to the right politically.

Wealth inequality has never been greater and the enormous political leverage that wealth gives can not be doubted in this modern age. Billionaires paying **** all tax all around the world. These issues affect billons of people. We have recently seen the right wing UK government (in power over a decade) try to give the wealthy a tax cut in the middle of a cost of living crisis.

But no every discussion on the left has to get channelled into Trans issues, the wealthy owned media loves these stories both negative and positive.

And I have to ask why the **** is that?

Finally! Something interesting. Absolutely, why is that? Why is there a massive apparent pushback against trans people happening? Is it an easy target that galvanises a certain type? A useful diversion tactic that saves people looking at the deeper impact of how right wing politics continually screws people over? Maybe it's a convenient way to continually pit one marginalised group against another (womens rights being apparently eroded by trans rights [I don't believe they are]. Gay rights Vs trans rights etc etc). Or is it simply a good way to sell copy? It was certainly a convenient way to help Truss get elected, having these bigoted tropes ready to wheel out on TV..

Previously incarnations of this tactic would be against the millennials or further back we'd all get a laugh out if the gays etc.

See that's the thing that annoys me about the "just asking questions" brigade. It very much plays into the hands of a couple of very distinct demographics.

The biggest denial yet... The contents of your post, what an absolute load of piffle. Your attempts to pigeonhole everything into basic, reductionist black and white thinking and your attempts to belittle are frankly frustrating.

Your bulleted list (by the may I take a moment to congratulate on your formatting, it clearly means a lot to you, unfortunately prettying thing up doesn't improve the contents..) is factually incorrect. Its complete bait to keep the discussion on your terms. But you know this. You know I haven't denied any of those things. Your delusion is such that you think there is some wider audience that you are playing to and you are somehow successfully discrediting those that don't agree..it's gas!

You think I somehow subscribe to "an ideology".. the words that have been spoonfed to you!

You pretend to care about women's and children's rights, but you are unable to comprehend basic points about safety and well-being.

I am not claiming some level of superior knowledge. I know there are many issues in the world, some even involving trans people and some even with points you raise. But you don't care about this at all. If someone dud actually care about these issues, there would be more discussion and less points scoring and soapboxing on regurgitated daily mail articles.
