Please, don't use the t-word. You're clearly more comfortable with being called a toaster so you should stick with that.

I must admit, though, that I have a hard time believing your gender identity is real when you are so clearly just using it as a club to support comparing people to inanimate objects. I mean, maybe you are transexual AND an rear end in a top hat, but I'm more willing to believe you're just the latter.

It is my personal choice to call myself a tranny. I am not ashamed of who I am.
hey we're back to de-legitimizing a person's gender identity because they have different political views
Sorry, but there's a lot of LGBT voting Trump. That's reality. This isn't a party line election, gay and trans people can read wikileaks too.

Just scrolled back and found it, sorry I missed it. You make good points, but it's still more of a legislature thing than an executive branch thing. We really overestimate what the president can personally effect, especially in election years.

Cingulate, posters telling you that looking in from outside as a eurokid circa 2003 your grasp of the US media environment and internal political pressures is not in fact an unimpeachable reflection of soberly-derived consideration that any US pol could have been reasonably held to, is not unconditional criticism, or an attack. It is a very specific explanation of why you were wrong on that count.
Oh, I don't mean what I received for that one. The Iraq War discussion on the last few pages was reasonably even-handed. I mean the intensity with which people get piled on with absolute full-on attacks whenever they go against some consensus. You have a bunch of people here, all of which agree Clinton should be elected. Now one of them also says something like "I like Stein on a bunch of points, also something something wifi magic wizard cancer something". An appropriate response to that would be: "I think Stein is very far from a reasonable position on these because reasons. Also wifi is completely safe. Don't worry."
Instead it's these stupid team politics. "If you're not 100% on board, you're on Team Orange Fascism somehow!"

I also don't want to be read as saying I don't emphasize with some of the reasons why hundreds of millions of Americans made the stupid choice in 03. I understand it's a lot easier to have a realistic picture of something like that reading Le Monde Diplomatique in Germany than reading the NYT in NYC, literally next to the ruins of WTC1.
Still, if you were paying attention at the time, and a lot of people were, you could immediately see this was going to be another awful war and the given pretenses were bad.

Absolutely. My only point was that if the legislature are spending 16 years stalling any legislative changes, there are some levers the President can still pull. With the unpopularity of CAF in general, the states that rely on the Federal kickbacks probably couldn't pass state-level replacements.

We know Trump's had sex, though. At least... What, four, five times? How many kids does he have again? And that's assuming he never forced anyone into an abortion like has been speculated, and that none of the rape charges are true. The existence or lack thereof for such a tape wouldn't change this, so I'm not horrified by the potential existence of one.

I sure as hell wouldn't watch it, though.

Also please stop quoting Tashan everyone, she's a terrible racist and says awful transphobic things (and also sexist ones; not sure if she's managed to be homophobic yet but I wouldn't doubt it) while simultaneously using her identity to try to silence any criticism. She really sucks and has no intention of arguing in good faith, and I still stand by my first assessment of her as garbage.

We aren't talking about "why blacks commit more violent crime" so quit moving the goalposts on an argument you can't win. We're not talking about why blacks commit more violent crime. That would be an entirely different topic. Do you think I'm a retard who doesn't know this? My partner is black.

My statement was that Blacks commit more violent crime. A poster in this thread said "No." I backed my statement with factual evidence from a very credible source, thus giving it more value and credibility than the refutation. I can't believe I have to remind you of that on D&D.

By the way, thank you for being the most sane person in this thread yesterday.
Also all the things I was trying to tell you about trying to have a healthy relationship with your parents eventually.. I didn't know you lived with them. You should definitely get out of that situation before considering opening up to them. And if they're really like how you said in your last post before I was probated, it might be for the best to not even bother trying. When I was talking about changing transphobes' minds, I was mostly talking about borderline cases; if they're straight up trans bashers they may be beyond saving.

No literally I'm not even trolling, people who have an issue with the term "black" are perpetuating some of the most demeaningly condescending poo poo towards the black community. Just like the person telling me, a transgender woman, that I have to feel offended when I hear "tranny" and I'm not allowed to call myself that or acknowledge within my personal identity the reality of who I am.

It makes these people feel ashamed to be who they are. gently caress off, being a tranny or being black isn't a bad thing, quit implying it is.
